    This game is not Battlefront, or Battlefield, but it is a fun shooter with some vehicle combat. In fact the game reminds me of Battlefield Bad Company 2 Multiplayer, which also had fairly restrictive maps, and controllable vehicles.

    Giving 0 for that game is just a sign of some kind of frustration. Either the game didn't meet your idealized expectations (because you wanted it to be a BF4 with StarWars skins), maybe you suck at it (those who said the gun play is shallow and arcade-like) or maybe because you are outraged by the EA's pricing policy. I can applaud to the last one, but it does not excuse the 0 score. JustGiving 0 for that game is just a sign of some kind of frustration.

I can applaud to the last one, but it does not excuse the 0 score. Just for graphic, music, number of game modes and the 'feel' of the SW this game is worth solid 7. Let's address some of the most common negative comments then:
    1. Gun Play - People are complaining about the shallow gunplay - but you are shooting a laser. There is no bullet drop, there is no air resistance or gravity. This is exactly the way it should be. Of course these rays should be invisible if we are sticking to the reality, but this is SW reality, so they are visible. Also some complain about explosives being overused and laser fight is not that important. This is due to the fact they never spent much time with the game. On level 25th I don't use any explosives (apart Ion Torpedoes on some maps - but they are strictly AT). And that actually made my stats to soar up. Grenades are easy to dodge with the jet pack and mastering your favorite blaster is much more beneficial (alas not an easy task).
    2. No Single Player. This is just a lie. The single player is there. As well as simple co-op game. I suppose we will see more modes for them with the first DLC. However there is no story mode (which I never play anyway - especially with Dice games)
    3. Poor balance - This is the game which is by default unbalanced (especially the Walkers Mode), and thanks to that it doesn't feel like the generic shooter. Leaving alone the Walkers mode the unbalance is coming from the fact that empire have some vehicles, while rebels have only fighters. This is due the SW lore. On the other hand the storm troopers are not camouflaged in any way (apart of the snow maps where the shining whiteness is beneficial), while rebels are blending more with the background on all maps. This may not be a big difference for players which played for few hours but after 24 hours in the game you can feel the difference and actually I prefer to play the rebels. Also the feeling of imbalance may come from the fact that some players didn't play beta (or played it very shortly). Those who played it to the max had a terrific head start on the first few days.
    4. No customization. I'm a big fan of guns customization so some small additions would be nice (like light/sound suppressors for beams for example). However thanks to the arcade style of the gun fight it is not a necessary feat, especially that the skill cards are actually making up for it and I wouldn't be surprised if the beam suppression wouldn't come as a skill card with some DLC. Skin customization is not as important for me, however taking off the helmets from the stormtroopers seems daft. According to the Imperial Regulation no. 778 no trooper can take off his helmet during the action :P.
    5. No team play features. This is not a huge problem for me as my favorite game play is long range. But I think team of 4 would be better, especially for rebels in the walker assault mode.
    6. Not enough content. I think that creating these 4 worlds to the tiniest detail was a pretty good job, but additional 2 worlds would make that better. Fortunately they are coming free with the first DLC (for these who pre-ordered the game). 6 big maps + many mods will make it good enough for the price. I don't think additional weapon will make much difference, however some additional hand cards probably will let for some more customization of the gameplay style.
    7. The PRICE. It depends on you expectations. I played beta so I got exactly what I expected. Already more than 25 hours in the game, it payed for itself as I had a great fun.

    In total - this is the game which is really easy to play but also really hard to master. It is the kind of the game I was missing from the library. Something you switch on to rest from your stressing job. It doesn't need as much thinking and planning as Arma or BF, no team expectation stress like in CS:GO. If I wanted a great single player mode, I would play Fallout 4. With Battlefront you just simply switch it on and kill foes. It makes it very casual, but so what? Games are played for the pleasure. And I still have all these other games if I wanted something else.
    Normally I would give it a 9, but to fight the trolling I'll give it 10.    … Expand

    I have purchased this game on PC and Xbox One and as you might have guessed with the username, I am a huge star wars fan. Now lets address some of the initial criticisms. This game is multiplayer only. This follows the fine tradition of games like 1942. The focus has always been multiplayer and that is what separated the Battlefield series from COD.

Now lets address some of the initial criticisms. This game is multiplayer only. This follows the fine tradition of games like 1942. The focus has always been multiplayer and that is what separated the Battlefield series from COD. In just about every review I have seen it points out its multiplayer, so if you are surprised by this, then maybe you need to do your homework before making that all important purchase. I initially played this on Xbox One but I have to say compared to the PC its a very different experience. The PC version looks absolutely incredible. The Endor mission is just amazing and Hoth looks great too. The game really has the great look and feel of Star Wars and the maps are really well balanced which brings us to the real challenge of the game. A lot of people have complained the game is short of content. If you look at some of the best multiplayer games, they have had a few maps which have then been built on, but for me EA has done what EA does. It has maximised its product and so are going to kill you in the pocket by adding the rest of the game through downloadable content. Having worked in the industry for 8 years, I realise a company has to make its money, but this is why the game isn't getting a higher score. There should have been additional maps and I think that held back some of the reviews. However put that to one side and I genuinely think the game is a hell of lot of fun. You need to past a lot of the reviews because I don't the scores add up and are basically reactionary ranting. Be objective in your review! EA do really need to review their content structuring, but don't let that put you off as this really is a great game and sets itself aside from the COD generation.… Expand

    Всё портит цена. Причём цена не на саму игру (2.000р), сколько Season Pass - 3 тысячи, дороже самой игры?! Издеваетесь? Супермегаделюксэдишн за 5500, совсем что-ли? И это при том, что контента в самом релизе критически мало, причём как планет, так и оружия и бонусов. Даже героев маловато. Эта жертва в пользу прилизанности игры и радует (багов нет, играется без просадок, серверы работают замечательно), и расстраивает одновременно. Но т.к. подобное стало уже обычной практикой для разработчиков, то и понижать рейтинг я за это не буду.

    Let me start off by saying that I feel a lot of the negativity towards this game is simply people hopping on the usual band-waggon of 'this game sucks', and it's happened with Battlefront because of how popular the title is. I believe a lot of people will say something negative just to gather attention, and Battlefront is getting the brunt of it.

I believe a lot of people will say something negative just to gather attention, and Battlefront is getting the brunt of it.

    I've been playing this game since the day it launched, and I play it everyday. To sum it up, I think this is a really fun Star Wars game, and I'm so very glad that we got this over whatever else EA had planned before this was given first priority. I think Star Wars games in recent years have absolutely sucked, namely "The Force Unleashed" and that many games like it were made simply because the Star Wars label sells, so no thought was really needed to push out a money maker.

    This is not the case with Star Wars Battlefront. You can tell that this game has care put into it the second you start playing, because it's stunning. I'll go down the list of positives and negatives.

    The gun mechanics have been named 'too simple' by some, but they couldn't be more wrong. This isn't a call of duty title where if you aren't wall running then you aren't doing it right, and it's not like counter strike in the regards that you need to learn spray patterns. It's what shooters were when every title coming out was fun, it's not over-done. I think a lot of people are used to games being overfilled with features just to justify the fact that it's the ninth or tenth in the series, and they're blaming 'simplicity' on how washed out they are. To be 'fun', the guns don't need a ridiculous recoil pattern or weird animations to give the effect of recoil, which was a major issue in games like Battlefield 4.

    The graphics are absolutely stunning. I haven't heard anyone knock the graphics, and no one should be able to. I will say that I'm running the game on a Titan Black, but even if I had a lower end card I think I would be blown away. Endor in particular is like no forest I've ever played in before, it's absolutely beautiful.

    The gadgets for the most part are fun, and not unnecessary. There's one gadget that really doesn't fit, the homing missile that locks onto infantry, but other than that they all lend themselves well to the game without breaking it. I think some things need balancing, like the ion homing rocket should have its range decreased, but that's about it. I have to admit that I love using the jet pack, it's fun and handy at the same time without being too much to handle.

    The heroes are epic. Many people will complain about them being 'OP', but that's the point. If you're lucky enough to pick the hero coin up, you feel empowered like few other games make you feel, and depending on your skill you can have a lot of fun tearing up the enemy team as Luke, or blasting people left and right as Boba Fett.

    I know a lot of people dislike the 'card' and 'coin' system, but honestly I think it works well. A major pain in FPS games is when even three people on your team are camping out vehicle spawns, and don't contribute at all to the rest of the game. It's frustrating as hell, and as uncool as it is to not be able to hop in a waiting x-wing and take off, it's much better as far as game mechanics go to use the coin system. I also think all of the pickups are well thought out, and nothing is game breaking.

    Flying is pretty fun, but I think the A-wing needs a nerf. That or all the other vehicles need a buff. Seriously, the A-wing can decimate enemy vehicles while being the slipperiest craft in the sky. However, I don't spend a lot of time in the air, so I wont spend much time talking about it.

    Content has been one of the biggest points of negative talk for this game. So much so that people are ignoring the fact that there even is a game, and they give it ridiculous low scores based on this one point alone. That's dumb. Look, I get it, EA is EA and yes, they probably could have put more in. I'm also disappointed that there's no conquest mode, but I would not base the entire game's score on it, like so many people are doing. This is a point that I will agree on though, and it's that EA is a greedy company that doesn't give a **** about their gamers. I think that they could have put more planets in the game, and I think that they're charging way too much for their 'season pass'. I think the idea of the pass is BS anyways, seeing as though they could adopt the micro-transaction marketing scheme, sell cosmetics for less while making loads more money, and then could offer the maps for free. That, or offer them for dirt cheap. Counter-Strike does it, Team Fortress does it, and look at the money Valve rakes in. EA however is a company for the share-holders, by the share-holders, and will continue to publish games this way, regardless of how talented their developers (like DICE) are.

    Anyways, I'm heading back to the Battlefront, because I absolutely love this game.    … Expand

    I'm about 20 hours in, roughly level 22 and the game is feeling a bit stale. The good news is that there are a ton of game modes with about 4 unique experiences. Run and gun team deathmatch, control nodes/flag, walker battle (64 player), and hero (where players assume the role of the characters from Star Wars).

    I was disappointed with the walker battle maps. It's hard to understand what's going on and your XP earned comes to a crawl while playing these long, drawn out, heavily scripted battles. A proper Battlefield style 64 man open area map with vehicles would be a hit.

    Upgrade system is a nice start and I hope it gets expanded upon future expansions. I

    It's a beautiful, Star Wars based shooter plain and simple.

    There is a lot of different scenarios and you can pick your favorite.

    the match making which is not always balanced
    the price, the game is really expensive. If you are not a star wars fan, you should find another multi-player game.

    Ok so here is to all haters who have played battlefront 2 by pademic studios first off THIS GAME IS NOT A SEQUAL OR RELATED TO BATTLEFRONT 2 BY ANY MEANS! and lets be real here almost all the heroes in battlefront 2 had the same ability so really it was only visuals who changed.Sure you could play as your favorite hero like darth maul,yoda and mace windu but they all had the same ability.in this game all heroes has unique abilities there is none that is the same.I dont know why everybody is giving this game so bad reviews when really its a good game.Dice has really worked hard on this game and it is really casual.They have been to the same places and the movies where shot and the sound is exactly the same as the movie.Sure you cant play as a wookie or as a droid but this game is focused on the new movie.And lets be real here the game is Really balanced there is no weapon that is clearilly overpowered and the star cards that are the better ones like the jetpack has a long timer on them so its really balanced.The only problem with the game is that people dont know how to play it.
    Sure its sad that it has no solo campaign but they have really outdone themself in the multiplayer and lets be happy for ones that we have got a star wars game.It has been 10 years after the last game.    … Expand

In particular the fact that everyone and not only the top kill streak champions can get to experience bonus stuff like AT-ATs and airstrikes is great, as well as the fact that there is a lot of action around specific points on the map that decide over defeat or victory (rather than in Battlefield where one team is capturing one point while the other team is re-taking the other, and you basically run back and forth between points to take and retake). Battlefront feels much more like real battles with a mission, where everything hinges on whether you take that particular point or not. Also the concept of moving frontlines, especiallt in "Turning Point" is excellent. Good game, I enjoy it a lot more than Battlefield. And no, I'm not paid by EA.… Expand

Those that claim no depth to this game, aren't willing to look for it. The types of blasters are all very different, with varying degrees of recoil, dmg models and range. the varying amount of cards you can select into the three hand combinations make for very different builds.

    The core gameplay remains immensely satisfying, a nice hybrid of battlefield metagame with punchy arena-like gun play that amplifies the addictive qualities of DICE's legacy games; it's almost enough to keep one hooked for a long time. Almost.
    Were it not for the promise that battlefront offers and the knowledge that more content and patches are on the way, I would certainly be disappointed with my 60$ purchase; to be honest DICE has a history of botching launches, and EA has been trending towards DLC compartmentalization for years.

If this was called something else like STAR WARS: KILLZONE (terrible name i know lol) it would be a lot more positively perceived. And seriously no campaign is not a big deal. Who gives a fk about a **** 8hr campaign, i can guarantee you that if this game had a 'campaign' it would of been cringe, and compromises would of been made on the already content lacking MP.

    And while I actually encourage these mis-representative reviews (cos f**k EA), it shouldn't be taken to much into consideration if you actually want to buy this. Actively seeking for negatives (which **** everyone is doing) just means a WORSE experience for YOU. Focus on the positives and immerse yourself in it :) (life advice as well)

    Also, this needs to be made clear. *It's a trap!*, EA's abysmal business model means that this game is likely going to die (on PC in smaller pop. countries, consoles are fine) after holiday season. This can also be attributed to the abysmal matchmaking system (maybe patchable?) So that MEANS YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS SOON if you want your money's worth, no waiting for hectic price drops (e.g. BF4+All maps = $45AU right now!).

    Super **** pissed how they managed to 'ruin' such a potentially GOTY game. If this had a bigger player base (mainly on PC), 2-3 more planets in the box, fixed partner system + matchmaking and something that would encourage/guide more teamwork-orientation this would be an EASY 9+/10 for any star wars+shooter fan.

    Let's start with the positives:
    - If you are a star wars fan (someone who tingles at the sound of SLAVE I firing it's cannons), generally LIKE playing the objective (esp. with friend(s)) and are at least half-decent at shooters this is highly recommended for you. Even role playing in ur head is fun lol (defend the princess!!)
    - Man if you play this on max settings w/ good audio, you would ACTUALLY feel like you're in the battle, or playing some 'interactive' movie, I don't know how to describe it. Very immersive and honestly f****** epic if you choose it to be. Personally, something about being a sneaky-beaky 'scout' on Endor is just so intense.
    - Great player card system, can take on multiple varying roles for specific situtations/guns/playstyle. Your partner/friend can use your card-preset (e.g. jetpacks) and vice versa.
    - Easy to make an impact/carry if you know what you're doing, especially as a hero (Someone team-based like Leia)
    - EARLY LEVELS SUCK (good thing) and it's designed well for you to learn the ropes! Good incentive and very rewarding getting new unlocks! You tend to be at a disadvantage and rarely get good drops because jetpack people will always beat you lol, but can be negated by having a friend/partner who can give you his jetpack.
    - GREAT GAME to play OCCASIONALLY, pick it up and put it down say 5hrs every 2 days you will be playing this for WEEKS if you actually like it. If you like the game, expect to put in 50-150+ hrs.
    - If you get pretty/really good you can single-handedly turn the tide of an even/slightly-losing game if you go hard at the objective (EVEN BETTER WITH A FRIEND).

    Negatives:
    - NO TEAM RESHUFFLING (patchable?) means once a team starts steam-rolling it will keep on doing so until enough 'bad' players on the opposing team leave and are replaced with higher ranked players. Gets unbalanced real fast, rarely any close games which is a shame because CLOSE GAMES ARE SO AWESOME. In the early hours of the morning when servers are at a minimum the problem is basically unavoidable (can't change lobbies) and you will either be dominating or getting reamed.
    - COMPLETELY BROKEN PARTNER SYSTEM when playing SOLO (unless you are actually partied w/ a friend, otherwise it's great)
    - FLIGHT CONTROLS on PC are almost unplayable. Sure you can get decent/great by practicing quite a lot in 'fighter squadron'(game mode), but if you have a PS4/XBOX controller to plug into your PC, don't worry you'll be the BEST pilot on PC (+ you get a massive advantage over everyone else so you can basically single-handedly dominate the skies haha!)
    - ORIGIN/BATTLEFRONT CLIENT IS TERRIBLE ON PC. As with all games that run with origin, even on an absolute monster of a PC, this game takes YEARS to ALT+TAB, EXIT, and you may experience occasional crashes, onset of in-game static. Even when you 'ALT+TAB' IT DOESN'T DO IT PROPERLY, the game just windows itself still taking up 3/4 of your screen. Ruins the fluidity and next-gen feel of the actual game.
    - LACK OF MAPS/PLANETS. However does great with what it does have. FREE planet coming out today.
    - SPAWNS on some game modes are a little off. Just needs some tweaking. Don't always listen to those who complain about spawns though, as it would ruin the pacing of certain gamemodes (eg Walker Aslt.)    … Expand

    TLDR; DICE made this a great Star Wars game (10/10 infact) but EA has ruined it by restricting content so early bringing it down to 8/10 for me...

    Okay, lets start with DICE who has done a great job DEVELOPING this game. Personally as far as a Star Wars game goes I'd consider this a 10/10 DICE perfected the Star Wars lore... as the game on a whole goes all things considered, 8/10.

    Why? well while DICE delivered a great looking (the graphics are easily the best of 2015) and superbly crafted Star Wars experience, the shooting mechanics are great, though some weapons are overpowered as all hell. Which makes for some annoying moments in the game where you or your opponent can clean up an entire group with no effort, this can let gun play down a small amount.

    Vehicles are a little let down, PC controls can be a challenge to get a hang of, but once you've got it down, you're going to town with them.

    Game modes are... well.. out the 9 or so different game modes people only seem to play 3 of them more than the others (Supremacy, Walker Assault & Heroes VS Villains) all other game modes are virtually empty (from my experiences)

    There is so much I could talk about for the most part DICE have made a great game... EA on the other hand, have taken full advantage of the Star Wars licence therefore butchering the game, seriously who sells a game for $89.99 AUD and then justifies a season pass for $59.99 AUD... I mean... that's just **** straight up ****.

    It almost seems EA have choked DICE from adding more content so early, that's where the problem lies with this game, content is not there for the sake of EA making more money by adding it later on... Unfortunately it seems the only way to have a definitive experience with this, albeit amazing Star Wars game is to buy the season pass.

    So for me personally these are the most pressing issues about the game and honestly its a great experience its fun, its gorgeous, it really isn't bad, its just EA ruined DICE'S rep by restricting content so early and adding a season pass for a BS amount of dollars.    … Expand

    2) Repetition??? They have like 6-7 multiplayer modes, walker assault, droid run, heroes vs. villians, supremacy, etc. They are all unique with different player counts and are all exciting. I enjoy the HvV mod

    3) Quality Quality Quality. Graphics, Sound, Design, everything is top Notch A++++ very engaging, and true/authentic to the movies

    4) No Single Player. I couldn't disagree more with this point, the point of a "campaign" is to tell a story, but here's the thing, the original SW trilogy has already been told. So instead, we get iconic recreated single player scenes a.k.a "Missions" that perfectly allow you to replay these scenes. The speeder race level is as good as any campaign mission. I find them to be infinitely more entertaining than a contrived campaign.

    And finally it's a "dice" game. If you like battlefield, you'll like battlefront. And of course the opposite is true. Do yourself a favor and give this game a chance, I really enjoy it, and am almost rank 40 in MP, and it has been the most fun leveling experience of any MP shooter I've played in recent years.    … Expand

    All in all, it's a solid game. The DLC will improve on it tenfold. I think that it was rushed out of production to hit before The Force Awakens.

    What I don't like:

    1) Battlefront chaos. Really, the gameplay is a mess. You are getting killed from behind, from the left, from he right.

    2) Balance is pretty bad. It's almost a rule that there are no equal games. 90% of the time one of the teams stomps another.

    3) To level up you need to grind really hard.

Including the much loved galactic conquest mode. They have also Left the clone wars out, instead focusing only on the Rebellion and Empire.

Secondly there is no "sequel number snarl" since nobody is confused about the naming of games like Kingdom Hearts, that's a retarded belief that doesn't exist. It's not even more of a mess, it's also not really, "really" complicated and that's fact since everybody who has waited for it for five years have played all the games and nothing is "fouled" by naming since it's a fact that "sequel naming snarl" doesn't exist retard. Another thing is that Kingdom Hearts is an arpg, not really a "hack and slash" like some retarded hack fraud youtube "critics" would claim, that's fact since it has everything an arpg does, but no it's unconventional and we can't compare it to anything else so let's lie and claim it's a "hack and slash". If you think it's "more like a hack and slash" you are factually wrong and retarded since it is an arpg. Literally play the game, and it's not a matter of "fanboys" retards, it's a fact you idiots don't actually understand anything about the game itself but act like you do. Another thing is the blowjobbing retarded idiot named "Rabbidluigi" claiming Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days is a "good game with a bad story", no you retard it's a good game with a good story, virtually nobody complains about the gameplay since it's a fact that nobody has an issue with it. Therefore it's a fact that it's not in the "Top 5 Bad Games With Good Stories" it's in the "Top 5 Good Games With Good Stories" and that's fact as well. Another retarded brainlet is some cumchugger retard named ThrillingDuck who made the retarded clickbait claim at about 2014 or something of "The decline of Kingdom Hearts" when it a fact that "The decline of Kingdom Hearts" doesn't exist and that's fact, there hasn't been any "decline" of Kingdom Hearts you braindead retard and that's fact as well. There isn't any decline of Kingdom Hearts and won't ever be any decline of Kingdom Hearts and that's the fact of the matter. The games haven't been as frequent to ensure all development is on making Kingdom Hearts as good as possible, that's a fact. The retard attempted a stupid idiot immature retard rant but he blew throbbing shaft at it like the retard he is. The story has always been complicated to start so that's not a valid complaint either, especially since the story actually works and that's a fact as well. Lastly somebody said for the opening "Dream Drop Distance is the best and Re:Chain of Memories is the worse in my opinion". It's fine to have an opinion but factually they are all good, Chain of Memories isn't as good as Dream Drop Distance but factually Dream Drop Distance isn't necessarily the best. Somebody named Baneewii said "I agree". Nobody does agree on that necessarily, therefore it's not "I agree", that's fact. Lastly the first guy said "Um, thank you for respecting my opinion?" Okay, your opinion can be respected, it's not necessarily accurate though since Re:Chain of Memories is not "worse" it not as good is all. Everything I have said in the review here up to now in response is fact, disagree and you are wrong and retarded. That's fact, I am honest about retards.

    On another topic, it's more political and about Bowsette but who cares. Some shaftchugging woketarded braindead journalist named Don Nero who probably burned innocent people alive, made a retarted SJW statement of claiming and had unsuccessfully described Bowsette as "dominatrix-inspired" and attempting and failing proposing her as a "positive symbol of female empowerment". How about a character made to be good retard? Lara and Samus were good because of characterization, Bowsette exists for porn, that's it, done, finished and though the retard complained that a bulk of the art was "overtly male-gazey." and btw, "male-gazey" is not a phrase cumchugging queer, secondly it could be "female-gazey", oh but wait, then you would have to not be a woketarded emasculated little cuck baby and actually have balls and not be a hypocrite retard wouldn't you little SJW cucklet? Then the beta cucklet who has retarded castrated male guilt for some retarded idiot reason said "dripping with horrendously over-the-top, seam bursting cliches that call to mind the bodacious sex-dolls of Dead or Alive Volleyball" Oh poor little castrated cucktard, Bowsette's not "woke" enough for you? Piss off you cancerous piece of fecal matter. It's not "dripping" with anything and they aren't "horrendously over-the-top" either cuckbreath. Afraid of their sexuality since your attracted to some porn and projecting by lying, undoubtedly the retardation of an SJW. And they aren't "seam bursting cliches".

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Original review:

    Being a fan of the original Star Wars trilogy so I can say that I think this game is a true Star Wars experience!

    I have played 5 hour in the beta and had fun but it was too repetitive on the same map and game mode after a while so I waited the final release to judge... now I have played 7 hour straight since the release.

    The pros:

    +The visual and the audio is the best I have seen in a multiplayer FPS and the performance is OK(50-60fps) on high settings with my AMD FX 8350 and R9 280 (and Xonar DSX ,5.1 speaker set) setup.

    +Shooting with a blaster is very satisfying , the vehicle play is fun and the card system is interesting.

    +Playing with a hero is EPIC! or Spawning as the Emperor's Bodyguard is a blast :)

    +Map Design

    +Fighter Squadron Game mode!

    This game mode is like a different game where you fight air battles on a planet surface with X-wing, Tie Fighter, A-Wing, and Tie Interceptor beside the two hero ships (Boba Fett and Han Solo). It would be perfect and Epic if there would be space battles with Capital Ships take part in and not just as visual background with more type of ships like B-wing, Tie Bomber etc. And 20v20 instead of 10v10 with bots. I hope and wish that they will improve this game mode because this game mode has a huge potential to be much better.

    The Cons:

    - Lack of "meaningful" customisation. 90% of this are different heads with different hair styles and there are only a few(2 on empire side) different model at lvl40,50.

    I hate to see a stormtrooper without a helmet....... so unrealistic and it destroys the immersion....

    -There is no weapon customisation like in other Battlefield games. ( maybe this is due to the lore)

    -The lack of the tools and map design(map with markers, party chat,etc.) to make teamplay possible with the "random" spawn locations.

    There are no squads nor tools to coordinate what to do where to go (ofc the objectives/point of interest are less than before in other battlefield titles) but at least a 4 men squad play would have been nice instead of this buddy system limited to 2 player. Everyone is like headless chickens running around the battlefield on their own. (Sometimes it feels like playing against bots spawning randomly everywhere)

    - Its not a big minus but the consumable vehicle tokens .... (I see that I think they have tried to designed the battle like it was in progression already when we jump in)

    -"Over the top" casual friendly focused on solo experience...

    I have no problem with casual games but I feel the game suffers from that everything is so streamlined that the gameplay became very flat without much depth. Maybe Dice didn't want to create a game what feels as a reskin of battlefield but instead of new interesting design or innovations to the genre they get rid of everything special about their battlefield series and created a streamline cinematic star wars experience what it becomes repetitive very fast if someone is trying to play this as a battlefield game and not as some casual game 1-2 hour a day (with the vanilla content).

    Not to mention the weapon and grenade cards with cooldown... at least the grenades should be limited or have a lot longer cooldown . :/

    -Content.

    I think there should be lot more character customisation option and not just different heads/hairstyles especially for STORM TROOPERS!

    I think the four different map type is not enough to justify the full AAA++ price tag and I am afraid that the game is planned to be built for expansion so thats why they cut out things. So I guess we will see the cool customisation options added for extra in hand with the different maps and maybe game modes. If you like to play just 1-2 game mode than you are stuck with the same few map. I hope that there is a lot of cool things in Dice's pockets hidden (because of "financial" reasons forced by EA) and there will be much more depth when they will finally pull these things out and add it to the game as expansions that supposed to be in he base game in the first place. It would be disusting to see the same game sold as battlefront 2 , 3, 4 for full price with some new feature added when this game could be much more. All in all I think the game is great if you plan to play it casually and its obviously not meant to be played HC but we will have to pay a lot of money for all the DLC and wait a year if we want to get the "full game".    … Expand

HOWEVER, this game is a let down for everybody who was expecting a similar experience as the original games. I was quite shocked by how little Battlefront stays true to the original concept. The game feels more like Battlefield than anything else.

    Another very annoying and disappointing aspect is that it's extremely bad value for a game. You pay 60 Euro's for 4 different locations, no single-player campaign and a repetitive multiplayer experience. EA also expects everybody to invest another 50 Euro's in the Season Pass, which funnily enough appears to offer just as little content as the base game. This is pure money-grabbing.

    I'm not saying that Battlefront isn't fun. The game is however, the best example for quality over quantity I've ever seen. Unfortunately, the spectacular visuals don't make up for its unjustified price-tag as well as lack of content.    … Expand

I tried really, really hard to like it. I loved BF 2. Let's start with the easy part that everyone can agree on: The graphics are absolutely stunning. The look of the game nails Star Wars. The limited number of maps means endless repetition unless you're willing to have content held hostage behind an artificially created paywall masquerading as an optional DLC. The fact that a season pass doesn't include all of the DLC is a little shady, at best. Not a big fan of the vehicle systems, but they're passable. I'm sure space battles might be included at some point (again, meaning a critical gameplay element would be locked behind pay to play).

    All of this might be somewhat excusable (I stress the word somewhat here) if there was a meaningful singleplayer experience to allow you to break the monotony of multiplayer matchmaking, but alas, this element (for whatever reason) was left out completely, and DICE never seemed to care about players' concerns about it. When a large enough player base demands it, you'd think they'd make it a bigger focus. Alas, singleplayer is relegated to a grind for credits and points that you'll use in multiplayer, but with such limited focus on the singleplayer experience to incentivize it, becomes little more than a chore, which is a crying shame, because BF2 had an exceptional singleplayer experience. While this may not be a big deal to a lot of folks now, in five years it may be if Battlefront's popularity wanes and the multiplayer experience becomes dead in the water.

    The matchmaking system also doesn't seem to work very well; I had trouble finding games (you'd think with the game still in a relatively new state, there'd be no trouble finding a game). This was an occasional issue, but enough to frustrate me into shutting it down, since I couldn't transition into a meaningful single player experience.

    Overall, the game lacks any meaningful staying power, suffers from poor gameplay, lacks diversity in game modes, and has an extremely pricey barrier to entry. I couldn't get a refund, because I tried to stick it out, which is a crying shame, because what I do now is fire up a singleplayer game of Battlefront 2.    … Expand

    First of all this is a game for star wars fans, and it capture the feel of the movies really well.
    When we come to game play it is not bad at all. The controls are good but some people say that it is too simple, but for me as a casual fps player I find them pretty satisfying.
    But the game BIG FAIL is the lack of SINGLE PLAYER mode which is really important for a star wars game.

There is no server browser, and we PC players are stuck to a console-like auto matching that not only takes away our freedom but is also further hindered by the excessive minimum player number requirements for each map. So if you are ever matched, you'll have to wait forever because the game can't allow players to play a 12 player max map with 6 players, or even put bots so players can wait playing the actual game.

    Private matches have been added recently, but you don't earn points from them. Great, useless for those who are still leveling and getting new stuff.

    Server browser seems to be forbidden by EA for some odd reason.

    Game is also overpriced, and price doesn't justify the content AT ALL. Overall gameplay meta is oversimplified. Makes the game "cod-like", gun and run. Yes the game does offer strategic moments, but those are fews and in-between all the mindless running and gunning.

Not enough stuff to unlock. Looks great but these days I'd rather play a game made of pixel art that has good reliable gameplay. So Battlefront gets 1 star.

    Also there´s no campaign. The multi player mode is a mess as players spawn all over the place making strategy and team work pointless. The survival mode is too easy on normal level and too hard on hard level (I didn't even try master level). You cannot save your game progress which puts a lot of pressure on your playing through 15 very hard rounds of battle. Especially if you get stuck in a wall (which is easier than you might think). There no way out but suicide which sucks hard when the game is this tight and every life matters.

    I had looked forward to trying out different vehicles but now I just avoid them. The most fun is the speed bikes on Endor but you only get one (yes one!) training mission with them. They could have been a whole game within a game if players could have raced against each other.

    The aim on walkers is completely off meaning you have to fire well above your target to hit it. Same with other vehicles and ground based guns. The x-wings are not fun to fly or dog fight in and targeting anything on the ground is impossible without crashing.

    Of course not all is bad. There are some great things in this game but it does not matter how great and cool Luke Skywalker is when the empire has these lame Jumping StormTroopers with automatic shields and flying kits. Worse are the invisible Shadow troopers. Now because of realism i'm sure, my gun overheats quickly - fair enough - but at the same time Shadow Troopers take 5-10 shots to the face at close range before dying which means you have to hold the trigger down. Very disappointing that im subject to realism but the empire is not!

    But what I really miss is a campaign with lots of iconic scenery that you can play through in your own while enjoying the whole atmosphere and vibe of say Hoth.

    Last but not least. The game is ridiculous expensive in itself and with more expansions to come EA is asking for even more money later. Had it been worth it I might even have considered.

    But oh boy. What a great missed opportunity! Although the game does look great :)    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. EA Didn't Really Finish What LucasArts Started
    I’ve loved the Star Wars Battlefront games since I was a kid but EAs version was a little disappointing. These games are based around the Star Wars Universe where you travel the galaxy and have epic battles. The first two Battlefront games were very good. In these old games there were three game modes: Campaign, Galactic Conquest, and the best game mode of them all Instant Action. In Campaign you fight in the battles from the movies in chronological order. There is the Galactic Civil War and the Clone War Era campaigns you can play through. In Galactic Conquest you and the enemy fight for different planet's using your troops and other items such as reinforcements to win the battles. Whoever captures all the planets first wins and conquers the galaxy. In the Instant Action battles you choose wherever you want to go battle and then your era and then your side and go to battle.
    In the new Battlefront many things have changed. The graphics have improved and that's a very good change. The bad changes however are that EA has completely gotten rid of the classic battlefront style. There's no Instant Action, Campaign, or Galactic Conquest. They have also gotten rid of the class selection. With the class selection you got to choose one of 6 or 7 (depending on the game) classes. There was Normal Trooper, Sniper, Engineer, a Rocket Launcher character and special classes such as Jet Trooper or Wookiee Warrior. Instead in the new game you make your own character and choose all their abilities and guns. I am very disappointed in that decision because it is unfair. You could have a character with the best gun in the game and another character with the worst gun in the same game and that's unfair to the character with the worst gun. In the new game you have to level up by killing people, killing heroes, taking command posts etc. The worse level you are the worse guns there are available. There are also only 4 maps whereas the other games had 20 give or take a few. These 20 maps were planets from all the movies and that were very unique and fun.
    The vehicle mechanics have also changed dramatically. Instead of vehicles scattered throughout the map where you can hop on even if it's your enemies tank it's little vehicle icons around the map where you get and suddenly get transported into your vehicle. I strongly dislike this change and I think they should have kept the vehicle mechanics the same because they were better than the current ones. They were easy and actually let you get in the vehicle and get out and didn't magically teleport you into a vehicle.
    Another feature that has changed is the heroes. In this game there are 4 per side (but more will be added in future dlcs). In the first game there were computer heroes based on your era. In the second game there is approximately 10 or so per side if you choose Hero Assault mode in Instant Action otherwise there is a specific hero you can be on each side depending on the map. In the second game you get your main weapon and a force power or infantry power such as grenades. In this new game there is two heroes with lightsabers Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. They can use two strike moves and dash move. The hero's without a lightsaber are Princess Leia, Han Solo, Nien Nunb, Emperor Palpatine, Boba Fett, and Greedo. They all have different moves such as Greedo's Dioxide Grenade or Leias Squad shield. These moves are very powerful and maybe just a little overpowered. I like the new hero mechanics but also miss the old ones too.
    In this game you only get to be in the Galactic Civil War Era whereas in the older games you could be in the Clone War Era. With the release of Star Wars the Force Awakens you'd think that there'd be a era for that in this game but no. I wish they would add this but they probably wont. I am looking forward to the Bespin and Death Star Dlcs which will add a lot of new things. They are going to add two heros per dlc and The Death Star and Bespin maps! Hopefully Cloud City and Bespin platforms from the old games will be part of the dlc!
    I overall think this game is good but not my favorite of the Battlefront Series. Im sad that they took out the original battlefronts style and mechanics but it makes the game a little better too. I recommended you buy this if you love Star Wars and The Battlefront Games. Have fun playing and may the force be with you!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game should be called Star Wars Battlefield, not Star Wars Battlefront. I do not consider this game part of the Battlefront series. And even as a "Battlefield" game, it is lacking.

    In short, I am very disappointed in the game.

    We all spent a lot of money on this game for so little replay value and overall content. I am also disgusted that we all have to fork out even more money to acquire content that should have been included in the initial release.

    No campaign, no space battles, lack of maps, stupid "star cards" system, get very boring very quickly (We have done about 38 hours with 4 people and we are all already sick of it), etc (The list goes on).

    The most annoying thing of all is that I could not, and cannot, refund it.

    I cannot say that it is all bad, the graphics and sound mechanics are unquestionably beautiful. They are just stunning and you can see a lot of effort was put in.

    But overall, I give this game 1/10 as it is just not what we wanted, they could have done so much better and to be frank I think they are just being greedy in the whole money aspect.    … Expand

Mistakes create improvement and that's perfectly fine, no the video game industry and community we have these days is not "seemingly tone deaf" like some retard would have you believe, some are yes but monetization to an extent helps guarantee the games we actually care about and are anticipating don't have monetization. That's why some mobile phone games and MMORPGs for some companies is okay, don't go nuts and it's perfectly fine. If your series is mainly an MMORPG then to an extent it's fine, be positive you don't have anything in an MMORPG that gives players an advantage. Monthly subscription or free to play it's perfectly fine, for mobile games as well. And that goes for multiplayer exclusive genres like Mobas, Hero Shooters, Team Shooters and MMORPGs. No loot boxes though.

    Another thing is the best Nintendo Switch game of the year is Octopath Traveler as well as Smash Bros. Ultimate, it's a tie, that's a fact. Nintendo would survive without Mario and Sony would survive without Naughty Dog/Gran Turismo. That's fact.

    Shadow of the Tomb Raider didn't succeed commercially and had to go on sale but that's perfectly fine mainly because there wasn't anything that would make it apparent it wasn't going to succeed. it's a mistake but that's fine.

    Now lastly to talk about Square Enix. They are factually a good company. An example of "Creator Worship" even. They are factually generally well liked by the public and their fans, that's a fact. They acknowledge their fans in the East and West but now consider the kind of games they make even more because of the overwhelmingly positive fan feedback of Bravely Default. Some braindead retards on the cancerous retarded pedophile website "TV Tropes" though would lie to you on their retarded "Darth Wiki"(A name by retards for retards) and claim it's a "Fallen Creator" example or some similar retardation, despite having it as an example of "Creator Worship" as well even though it's one or the other. They are factually retarded and the retarded braindead "Fallen Creator" example is factually wrong as well. It's factually not a "Fallen Creator" it's factually an example of "Creator Worship". FFXIV wasn't great at first? Turned around the project and made it a good game and Square Enix was thoroughly commended by players, critics and fans alike for their effort, thus making them more "Creator worshipped" then before since it is now well liked. FF The Spirits Within? That movie that almost shut down Square? ALMOST. They recovered and are now more successful then ever after merging with Enix and now have more creative capability thanks to that. That's a positive, a "Fallen Creator" wouldn't have survived that, they would've shut down and not recovered because of that mistake, but they gained more from it instead. That's a fact. A vocal minority of some retards online may or may not site them as one of the first stereotypes of JRPGs and make retarded videos about selling merchandise, that's retarded "evidence" that isn't actually evidence. What if they are seen by some retards who are undoubtedly the kind of retarded ignorant American cumsuckers(Some Americans are good, not them though) who make equally retarded and factually wrong statements, over generalizations and stereotypes about anime and manga as one of the first "stereotypes" of JRPGs? What stereotype? That JRPGs are good games? Since they are, but you retards neglected to specify that of course. There will be part 2.    … Expand

    A perfect game for short sessions. It’s not deep enough to convince online shooters veterans, but it will definitely win over Star Wars fans. [01/2016, p.34]

    Star Wars Battlefront looks and sounds great, and with Battlefield-class gameplay could have ruled the multiplayer galaxy. Unfortunately, at best OK-level, Battlefront-class gameplay is much too shallow to last long. And this is THE one license, which really needs a single player campaign. [Dec 2015]

    Any semblance of subtlety is abandoned entirely when it comes to the playable Hero and Villain characters. [Jan 2016, p.110]
