If you bought the Celebration Edition on Steam - no. You've literally bought everything already. The campaign is pretty fun, too. I enjoyed it a lot.… Expand

    POSITIVES: Battlefront II beinhaltet viele Dinge, die mir sehr gut gefallen. Als erstes wäre hier die Grafik. Diese ist zwar nicht die beste, aber dafür solide und passend. Etwas anderes das ich grossartig finde, wären die Unterschiedlichen Spielmodi, die es gibt. Meine drei Favoriten wären hier Helden VS Schurken, Totale Vorherrschaft und der Koop Modus. Es gibt aber auch einen Spielmodi, bei dem es möglich ist mit unterschiedlichen Raumfahrzeugen im Weltall zu fliegen. Die Steuerung des Spieles auf dem PC ist auch super und anpassbar. Die Figuren wirken real und es fühlt sich an, als würde man selbst in der Welt anwesend sein. So lässt sich Darth Maul oder Count Dooku genauso spielen, wie wir sie aus den Filmen kennen. Die einen Charaktere sind dabei eher agil, andere wiederum eher Tanks. Aber das Beste an dem Spiel finde ich, dass es sich so real anfühlt. Man lässt seine Umgebung komplett ausser Acht und taucht dabei in die Welt von Star Wars ein. Das ist EA tatsächlich gut gelungen.

    NEGATIVES: Leider fühlte sich Battlefront II zu Beginn überhaupt nicht so an. So war die Grafik 3x so schlecht, wie jetzt und die Menüs mit den Charakteren sahen auch komplett anders aus. EA machte auch den wohl dümmsten Fehler aller Zeiten. So war das Spiel zu Beginn nur Pay to Win. Die Karten konnten nur mühselig freigeschaltet werden (daher auch die schlechte User Bewertung). Dies ist aber Vergangenheit und mittlerweile glänzt das Spiel auch so gut, wie nie zuvor. Dennoch gibt es auch heute noch Dinge, die mir nicht passen wollen. So finde ich es komisch, dass Charaktere, die kauern so schnell laufen können, wie kleine Spinnen. Schade finde ich auch, dass es keine privaten Lobbys gibt. Ich würde gerne Mal ein VS mit meinen Freunden zocken.

    FAZIT: Battlefront II ist ein grossartiges Spiel. Jeden Monat kommen neue Inhalte ins Spiel. Das sind nicht zu viele Updates, aber auch nicht zu wenige (siehe Fortnite). Ich würde das Spiel jedem empfehlen, der gerne Shooter Spiele spielt oder ein tolles Star Wars Feeling erleben möchte. Ich weiss nicht, wie die Zukunft des Spiels aussehen wird, aber ich denke das dauert noch eine Weile, bis das Spiel eingestellt wird (Meine Spielstunden betragen 430h). Der Kostenpunkt liegt bei 30€, meistens gibt es aber auf MMOGA Preisreduktionen. Für ein volles Battlefront II Review --> siehe mein Battlefront II Review auf YouTube an.    … Expand

    I know this game has had a rough start. But in mid-2019 it turned and became one of the best Star Wars license games I've had in a long time. An absolute must-buy for every Star wars fan.

    I bought this game 1 year after release and I think this was the best time to play. No microtransactions, many additional stuff (maps/characters) - even without buying a DLC - and full servers.
    One Problem is the hardcore grind to get more powerfull.

    This game has massively changed since it's controversial launch. Microtransactions have pulled a Houdini and dissapeared completely, leaving a very fun multiplayer shooter, that anyone can enjoy without popping open a wallet.

If one team has someone who is not good, that team is going to lose no matter what, because the precision radar allows the game to basically be a 3v4.

    Battlefront 2 is a game driven by the Star Wars franchise and Star Wars fans. With Battlefield-like gameplay, you can run into battle as a clone, battle droid, rebel, or stormtrooper.

With vehicles as seen on TV, the game does a good job of balancing planes and tanks versus the infantry. There's four unique classes, guns that feel distinct, and many recognizable maps from the Star Wars movies. Despite Battlefront 2’s glaring loot box problem on release, the game rebounded to become one of the best shooters in recent years. Although the singleplayer wasn’t what fans expected or wanted, the multiplayer easily made up for it. Although support has stopped in 2020, the amount of content was more than enough to have fun in Battlefront 2 in 2020. Many of the problems in Battlefront 2015, such as DLC locked behind a paywall, and annoying hero systems were solved in the new Battlefront. Something that was for sure not a problem in Battlefront 2015 was the maps, which continue to be good in Battlefront 2. The maps are all visually stunning, as expected from any EA game. Unlike a lot of EA games however, the content actually lives up to expectations. One of the most important additions to Battlefront 2 was the fact that the developers listened to what the players really wanted, including new blasters when fresh ones hadn’t been added since launch. Even though lightsaber combat feels a bit weird, the points system to unlock vehicles and heroes is much better than the hero token system of the 2015 version. Heroes and vehicles also manage to balance fun for the hero and the infantry they’re facing, and not upsetting either side of the argument.
    The singleplayer, unfortunately, wasn’t what most people wanted. The story starts out with the player playing as an imperial stormtrooper, but quickly goes back to the standard rebel gameplay. A few hero missions are mixed in, but aren’t really that interesting especially the infamous bug-fighting level. Overall, the multiplayer-focused game has a good multiplayer and a disappointing singleplayer, but that’s good enough for most players.    … Expand

    Hikayesini bitirdim. Gerçek bir star wars filmi kalitesizliği ve saçmalığında. Absürt ve alakasız olaylar, mantıksız aksiyon sahneleri gırla. Birbirinin aynısı olan ve sürekli tekrar eden koruma ve ele geçirme görevleri bayıyor. Grafik ve sinematik kalitesi iyi.

Anyways the gameplay is very good the graphics are good some stuttering goes on sometimes (I have an RTX 2060 btw) so they should probably make some performance updates if they can. I don't know what was going through Disney's tiny little **** mouse brain when they signed the rights to Star wars away like the devs from star wars battlefront 2 classics were making The 3RD GAME and then they just signed the rights away like bruh how **** mental are you. The first 2 games from the battlefront series were great even in 2020 there still great and the game out in the mid-2000s. When star wars battlefront 1 and 2 came out they had less **** content than a game made in **** 2005 like bruh. Honestly, Disney should just give the rights to star wars to the same devs that made star wars battlefront 1 and 2 classics. Star wars battlefront 2 2018 is a good game but beware of **** lootboxes… Expand

    Battlefront 2 has really improved, they removed all micro-transactions, and its a really good game. Multiplayer and Co-Op is good and the story is great. Only downside of this game is that it gets repetitive and they should add more or switch up the characters a little.

    Battlefront 2 acutely demonstrates how good games can be buried under devious business practices. It's a solid multiplayer shooter with a serviceable campaign and can deliver a few of dozens of hours of fun.

It's a solid multiplayer shooter with a serviceable campaign and can deliver a few of dozens of hours of fun.

    The shooting part of the core gameplay is finely tuned so that every shot has an impact without obscuring your view or hindering your movement, which plays nicely into how fast-paced the game is. Lightsaber combat, on the other hand, feels floaty and lacks response, but that allows attacks to feel lightning-fast and easy to execute. Movement overall feels rather nice, while movement abilities, be it dodges, jetpacks, or droideka roll, are all fun and responsive to use. Gameplay differs drastically between characters, which obviously messes up the balance, but allows for diverse playstyles which fit different players or different moods. The loadout system expands the customization of how you play even further, and it never felt like making a huge gap between players. Transports are of varied quality, but they don't feel jarring or unintuitive to use. Maps are varied, featuring setpieces that emulate the Star Wars feels with uncanny accuracy, but there are a couple of weird choke-points and questionably long and convoluted corridors that might disrupt the pace of the match sometimes.

    As with the maps, the game overall looks and sounds surprisingly close to the movies, providing constant fanservice excitement. Outdoor environments are especially stunning in their realism achieved with the science-fiction art of photogrammetry.

    Campain is a pleasant surprise as well, providing a superficial but engaging story from a rare perspective in Star Wars canon. Characters are nothing to write home about, but they can be rather compelling at times. And the weakest spot, as per usual, is the mission and level design having trouble adapting the gameplay structure designed for multiplayer into a solo experience.

    While not being anything exceptional, Battlefront 2 is a great game that knows what it has to do and executes it very confidently. After cleaning up bugs and minimizing microtransactions and their impact on the game, DICE proved that if not tainted with the egregious monetization model, their shooters can be fun, indeed.    … Expand

    Apart from the great Starfighter Assault mode Battlefront II is a mess of conflicting ideas, uneven mechanics and of course questionable monetization practices. DICE is facing long months of salvaging the game and the studio’s good name. [01/2018, p.32]

    Even the tinsel of the Star Wars world cannot hide the silly story and the boring singleplayer gameplay, or the necessity to accumulate the credits in the crate hunting in multiplayer. Battlefront II pleases as a genuine shooter in the beautiful scenery, but EA should deserve a slap into the face for their mad progression system.
