    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The criticism this game is getting is literally focused entirely on the fact that there are microtransactions that make your one-shot-and-I'm-dead soldier into a two-shots-and-I'm dead soldier. Like...come on, guys. A 0 score? Dice busted their ass to make sure this game was something that you could legitimately enjoy if you like Star Wars. EA made their adjustments, and we now have a fun game that's being held back by a slightly annoying progression system. To everyone whining about being unable to play Luke or Vader, you do understand that by completing the campaign and maybe, I dunno, two or three games of galactic conquest, you're basically given enough credits to purchase one or the other? Dice and Battlefront 2 are unfortunately the targets for everyone's hate for microtransactions--but the game as it stands is a blast to play, functions perfectly, has a campaign that gives you the chance to try the heroes you can take out into multiplayer, and screw around in the Star Wars universe. It's exactly what it needed to be.… Expand

    Great graphics and gun play, story is surprisingly well fit into the universe, the arcade mode being only local co-op was a disappointment.
    The multiplayer is a bit unbalanced as well but i'm sure it will be adjusted.
    This game is fun, but sadly all the reviews are for the loot boxes, and not the game play.

The progression system was built to entice you/your children to spend money on loot boxes. It is aggravatingly slow to accomplish the challenges in the game so that you get annoyed and keep making purchases of a couple bucks. There are serious competitive advantages for spending money - which means this game has zero competitive integrity. Right now microtransactions have been turned off temporarily, but since the progression system was built around microtransactions, the entire thing is broken.

    To summarize, great game design and gameplay, but terrible execution by EA's execs on progression. Ruined an otherwise fantastic game.    … Expand

The single player campaign has an amazing story which brings to light some of the things the empire and rebellion did after the death of the emperor. The little bit of the multiplayer that I have played so far has been really good as well. While there are fewer modes of gameplay, the different eras in SW history with its different factions is a refreshing change.

    Hey Guys,

    I believe that this game is gorgeous. It looks stunning, sounds amazing and feels like Star Wars. It immerses you in one of the 3 epic ages of Star Wars history: Clone Wars, Rise and Fall of the Empire and the New Order vs. the Resistance. In order to understand this game let us compare it with the last installment of the series and take a look at how much DICE (&EA)    Hey Guys,

    I believe that this game is gorgeous. It looks stunning, sounds amazing and feels like Star Wars. It immerses you in one of the 3 epic ages of Star Wars history: Clone Wars, Rise and Fall of the Empire and the New Order vs. the Resistance.

    In order to understand this game let us compare it with the last installment of the series and take a look at how much DICE (&EA) listened to our hopes for this game:

    Lets look at what STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 2 does better:

    - offers a by far wider variety in planets and locations (from all 3 Ages)
    - includes 6 unique Star Wars Factions (with their own vehicles etc.)
    - has a class system that was wished for from the community --> gives a true feeling of Star Wars IMO
    - maps seem to have a little more variety to them and the small cutscenes actually make me feel like im
    in the battles themselves
    - has a single player campaign (average but OK I guess (would give it a 6.5/10 for solo campaigns) -->
    also gives you a lot of rewards for multiplayer)
    - allows for more customization in classes with guns / attachments
    - has on paper the better star card system than the last one (if you leave aside the p2w aspect)
    - has NO season pass!!!

    But what does this game do worse than the last one?

    - Microtransactions = EA`s greed for the Star Wars license
    - From a point onwards slow progression (they want to make us buy Crystals)

    In terms of graphics, soundtrack and map design this game is on par with the first installment if not maybe better.

    Let us talk about unlocks: DICE already decreased the price of the heroes. After 6h story and 6h multiplayer I am currently sitting on 43.000 Credits and 300 Parts. This is enough to unlock Darth Vader + Luke + Leia / or open almost 11 Trooper-Crates and uprgade some star cards.
    In my opinion this is more than enough for a good start into multiplayer.

    Don´t get me wrong. I think that the grind starts after you spend your first credits. In order to unlock something afterwards it takes hours in game. This is something that needs to be addressed ASAP!

    --- NOW: Why do I believe this game is better than the last one? ---

    In my opinion we got half a game for $60 for the first Star Wars Battlefront (2015). The game was lackluster and was not fun after 50 hours of gameplay. After you sink your teeth into that game you feel like there was nothing to unlock, nothing more to do, nothing to play it for anymore. It was fun for around 40 hourse before realizing it was just a hull of what is was intended to be.
    This game at least let`s you grind for something and makes you stay longer playing and wanting that new hero, unlockable and so on.

    The soul of the first game`s experience was ripped out and was sold to us for $50 more -- SEASON PASS.

    Star Wars BATTLEFRONT 2 gives you practically all the content from the last game + season pass + 2 completely untouched factions in the last game from day one as well as a Single player Campaign.

    I therefore would rather choose the microtransactions than the season pass because you can still grind for all items in game but not for a season pass unlock in the first installment of the series.

    In my opinion SWBF2 is a far superior game to the 2015 version of SW Battlefront.

    DO NOT MISUNDERSTAND:

    I completely understand the hate this game got from the community. I agree that a game that is full price should neither include a season pass, nor microtransactions of any kind. For a completely fair user experience their should be no shortcuts allowed for any player.
    Everything should be unlocked through an achievement system of some kind that is fun and enjoyable to play through.

    Let`s see what happens next.
    I would rate this game after around 12h of gameplay a 7/10. Maybe even higher if they fix the microtransactions p2w aspect.    … Expand

Kivéve a vége mert az úgy ahogy megmentette a sztorit a szakadéktól (de nem teljesen).

    Nagyon nagyon szomorú vagyok mert szerintem is hihetetlen nagy potenciál lett volna ebben a sztoriban. Végre a birodalommal harcolhattunk (volna), de ehelyett visszatértünk az unalmas átrágott klisékhez, ahelyett hogy nagyobb betekintést nyerhettünk volna az akkori birodalomba, annak lassú széteséséhez (gondolok itt a belső hatalmi harcokra, mert én ezt vártam volna a sztoritól), és újraszületésére valamint az első rend megalakulására. És arról nem is térnék ki hogy a sztori túl rövid ami koránt sem elég a karakterek fejlődésére megismerésére amiben szintén óriási potenciál volt.

    Összességében: Nagyon nagyot csalódtam benne és nagyon elvette a kedvemet ez az egész (és még jön az új star wars ami még jobban elveszi a kedvem).

    But lootboxes in $60 game, which require about $2000 to unlock everything or over 150 DAYS of play time is BS.
    Even worse is the fact that those lootboxes contain stuff that make you better, like 25% better turning on space ships and higher damage.

    these loot crates are not funny at all.
    Even with tuned off transactions there are a lot of players with much better staff (like 1-2 epic cards) and this completely ruin the game, just can't imagine what will be in game when this transactions will be available. I can not recommend this game to someone else, because there is nothing to do without additional purchases.

    The graphics are realy nice and the performance is also good. but microtransactions are the worst thing EA could have done to this game.
    Battlefront II (2005) is a much better game in every aspect. Pls do not support EA

    Сперва Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, потом Need for Speed: Payback, а потом пришёл STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT II. Это насколько надо обнаглеть, чтобы продавать людям игры за 60-100 баксов, и впаривать им лютый фритуплей и пей-ту-вин. Играйте в это сами.

    In regards to multiplayer, unless you are prepared to spend 40 - 60 hours grinding to unlock each and every character, you can say goodbye to playing as every hero in the game. It's obvious that the progression system is completely built around Microtransactions, and even though they have removed this, it's important that the removal is only temporary. EA fully intends to reintroduce Microtransactions at a later date, presumably after many people have already bought the game. The thing is that these microtransactions made the game PTW. Someone could literally drop a few hundred dollars and upgrade their character to top tier OP status in minutes. Again, as of now, this feature is removed, but is scheduled to be reintroduced at a later date.

    All that aside, the game just sucks. The multiplayer has horrible maps except for maybe two. Everything is easy, and the whole game is just a pew pew fest in Star Wars looking characters. Hero characters are ridiculously OP such that standard classes can't compete. But what's worse is that there is no direction to this game, you just run around shooting people via ambush, because the maps have no logical progression to set up face to face gunfights. The whole game, from single to multiplayer is just a steaming pile of trash. I strongly advise you all to avoid this game at all costs. It's not worth $60 in any way shape or form.    … Expand

The arcade modes are not anything to write home about either. They, while fun here and there, are short experiences and don't offer any more depth for offline modes for the game. Each arcade mission can be completed under five minutes. The multiplayer is where it shines. Galactic Assault and Starfighter Assault you can guarantee getting into a match with in two minutes of joining the multiplayer que. Blast, Strike, and Hero Vs. Villains are not as popular. Longer wait times to get into games for those. Graphic and sound design is top notch; the gameplay is excellent. However, that does not make up for the messed up progression system. You complete matches to earn credits and level up your characters and the star card loot boxes are a hindrance in the multiplayer progression. You have to play at least 5 matches, depending on performance, to purchase one of the crates to get star cards for a character. The crates run on a random number generator where you may not get what you want in the crate. Therefore, it limits how the player progression in the multiplayer aspect of the game through the lack of player input. After having spending a good 12 hours with the game, it is definitely a mixed bag. While it is a Star Wars game with great gameplay, it lacks in other aspects. It gets an 5/10.… Expand

    Star Wars encourages children to gamble. The game is pay to win and requires one to pay in upwards of $2000 to unlock all of the iconic Star Wars characters. If you would rather earn those characters through gameplay, one has to put in around 2000 gaming hours to accrue enough game credits to purchase them.

    With the award winning 2005 Battle Front 2 being my favorite game that year i was ecstatic about the announcement for this Battle Front 2 (2017) especially after the rushed 2015 Battle Front paled in comparison to it's 2004 counter part in terms of content found in the game. The hope was with more time to develop this latest installment in the franchise could reach the volume of content presented in that original Battle Front 2 game while providing the graphical updates of 4k. Now lets open up the hood and see just what game we got.
    Graphics/Campaign -
    With the graphics and stunning attention to detail Star Wars Battlefront 2 looks like a star wars movie. Dice must again be commended for their efforts especially in the graphical department with this games look. The campaign is sadly unfinished with multiple levels missing from the overall story. All though these campaign missions will be added at a latter date it still is inexcusable to omit them at lunch with the campaign being touted a major selling point of the game. Also multiple bugs have been reported and the game will need some patches to fix these issues. The actual story with Iden Versio starts off in and interesting direction for the series with the first ever main character; Where as in previous installments it was replaying the story of the 501st storm trooper legion as their commander recounts the battles him and his men participated in across both eras. Focusing in on Iden could have provided some more emotional investment but it is instead traded for cameo's from Luke skywalker and other Star Wars characters which is welcome from a game play perspective but from a story perspective it kills the attachment we should be having with our main hero. The Short campaign leaves little time for a believable story to take form and we are left with a plain predictable affair that I simply cant invest myself in. Although the fully rendered cut scenes are also a major improvement from the original in game footage shown in the PS2 days the story does not support the gameplay and flip flop of characters that Dice has chosen to still do. Overall the campaign gets a zero out of ten from me due to it's unfinished state alone. A campaign must be finished at lunch for people who want the game for that reason; you cant ask people to buy something and then force them to wait to actually receive all of it. So if you want Battle Front 2 for it's campaign wait to buy it until it has all been completed and is ready to play. For rural individuals who buy games with campaigns because they have no internet connection this disappointingly will not be a complete experience for you.
    Multiplayer -
    Oh boy what can i say that has not all ready been said. this game is pay to win with contextual gambling elements and absurdly long unlock times for base game players unwilling to pay more money to dominate other players. Pay to win is a zero out of ten from me based on sheer principle alone. The actual Multiplayer would be fun with the inclusion of classes and a points system to unlock heros and vehicles during gameplay by rewarding "better" players instead of randomly like battlefront (2015). This is all for not as success is largely dictated by star cards and your luck with lootcrates or the amount of them you have unlocked with your real world money. These cards provided benefits to a players health, damage, ect and can turn a multiplayer encounter into a simple test of who has the best cards equipped instead of any form of actual skill. All eras are now represented with imperial, Republic, Rebels, CIS, First order, and Resistance all being playable. Ship to ship combat is also here along with other features missing in battle front (2015) bringing it more in line with the content seen in Battle Front 2 (2005). Though not as extensive with gamemodes like galactic conquest still missing, providing non multiplayer players even less reason to pick up the game.
    Final thoughts For those who do not know i rate games by awarding a possible 5 points for Campaign and possible 5 points for multiplayer for a games total possible score of 10. Pay to win is an automatic 0 for multiplayer from me based on principle alone on top of the fact it's not fun or satisfying. lootcates are always a Negative 2 points due to a implementation of random chance that is not necessary, sacrificing fun for a gaming industry business exploit. Card systems are also a negative 1 due to another factor of random chance being introduced for no reason. So Battle Front 2 get a final multiplayer score of zero out of five. An unfinished campaign is an automating zero out of five. I cannot judge something that is not there in it's entirety so i cannot recommend getting it. Dice did a decent job; EA rushed them again and forced micro transactions, lootcrates, cards and pay to win into what would have been a passable game. sadly we got a money making experiment form EA instead    … Expand

    I can't believe the greed behind this game, and I can't believe Disney would support a game that offers gambling to kids. The whole game is ruined by EA and Disney's greed. They don't care about your kids, they just care about the almighty dollar. The game is junk without the upgrade cards and you can get them by spending more money. I love Star Wars but this game is predatory trash.

    This is a free to play mobile game skinned as a triple-A 60$ title. The temp removal of microtransactions is just a gimmick and you can bet they will reinstate them when the heat has died down. DO NOT BUY THIS MONUMENT TO CORPORATE GREED.

    The initial hype for this game appeared very positive, Dice/EA appeared to listen to customer feedback and were going to add a solid single player experience and make sure all maps were open to everyone.

However, as everyone knows by now, the "pay to win" lootbox progression system has tainted any good image the game may have had. I suspect the high profit potential of micro transactions were irresistible for EA and Dice. And don't get me wrong, there is a lot of money to be made in that space. Mobile games are making a fortune, and Blizzard does quite well with their loot boxes in Overwatch. But unlike Overwatch, SWBF2 has tied character progression to loot boxes. Whatever skin/spray/voice line or pose a player has in Overwatch, it doesn't impact the player's ability in game. SWBF2 scorns fair play in favor of allowing if not encouraging players to gain advantage over others by paying for more chances at improving their characters.
    Although EA/Dice has temporarily suspended all microtransactions in the game, the only true fix is if they make progression its own thing, and leave loot boxes for cosmetic skins, poses, ect..    … Expand

In conclusion I'm excited to keep playing and am excited for plasma and Finn to come into the game as they are both cool characters and I can't wait to beat some more whales in my journey in battlefront 2… Expand

    Lootboxes are terrible since they affect gameplay and not just cosmetics like other games, progression is painfully slow, it feels terrible to get killed by someone who bought a lot of lootboxes and got the best cards.

    EA I wish you would read all of these reviews because your a monster and you need to correct yourself. Why couldn't have LucasArts given the license to someone who actually loves star wars as much as its community, and not these corporate jabronies.

    The loot boxes ruin this game. EA tried to push the micro transactions to far. Gamers need to take a stand now or else future games will all be like this. I bet you the team making the next Battlefield is like oh crap guys. We need to change this system people are not going to tolerate it.

    since the launch of battlefront 2 most of the talk has been around the micro transactions and the fiasco of pay to win however I would like to talk about the actual game. I pre-ordered this game a long time ago and have been really looking forward to playing the empire.

I pre-ordered this game a long time ago and have been really looking forward to playing the empire. I started to write argumants for all the things I wanted to discuss but it got too long and so I just made a list.

    Things that suck -

    The auto-aiming obs from this being a console port - I clearly fluffed a rl shot and watched the rl turn in mid air and hit a target that wasn't even on my screen when I fired
    More cuts scenes than gameplay
    Really bad gameplay
    The terrible plot I was really looking forward to playing the empire
    We don't get to play the empire we're playing rebels in the wrong uniforms
    Why are we playing Luke 10 mins in oh yeah to convince the empires hard core elite troopers the change sides at the drop of a hat
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    The empire blow up one of thier own worlds just to convince us that the lead trooper needs an incentive to change I can't remeber her name its similar to the girl in rogue one tho
    The ship levels are poor
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    The ai is poor you can flank the troopers just by crouching even walk in front of some of them and they dont see you
    You can get behind them easily
    The levels are very very linear and you are spoon fed what to do the whole time
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    The levels actually look worse than the original
    The troopers aim hasnt improved
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    The game crashes a lot
    The crate system
    The fact that DICE hasn't done a good game since BF4
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    HAN SOLO HAS A BEARD WTF!!!!!
    TBH the whole bar section with Han is a complete and utter waiste of ****ing time it serves no other purpose than to jam in some more movie related bs
    You play in loads of 'movie' locations that are disjointed and have no consistent plot, story line or indeed relevance to each other. Oh look were in ep6, no ep3 wait now ep7 /facepalm wtf
    This is the worst game dice have ever put their name on. Someone just saw the loot boxes as $$$$$ signs and the list of compaints last time and just thought **** it we'll throw together some disjointed plotless nonsensical **** and call it a campaign **** our customers they're all idiots anyway hahahaha
    You don't get to play as the empire just as future rebels
    This game is clearly been designed for consoles
    I really regret buying this game loot crate **** aside this is a really bad game
    The flying combat has been dumbed down

    Things that don't suck -

    You get to fly the Millenium Falcon (only its completely out of context we were promised we would play the empire).

    DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ITS A PIECE OF ****

    This will be the last Starwars game (and possibly DICE game) I buy and if The Last Jedi isn't ****ing awesome it will be the last Starwars movie I watch.

    Ep 4 - Awesome
    Ep 5 - Awesome
    Ep 6 - Awesome
    Ep 1 - Meh
    Ep 2 - Bad
    Ep 3 - Terrible
    Ep 7 - Bad its a f***ing reboot
    Rogue one - Good should of had the scroller and the PROPER Starwars music

    Should you buy this game? No, you should not.

    Yes, it looks fantastic, and I am sure that some gameplay elements rock. However, for the future of gaming it is important to make a point: We will not accept what EA is doing. Every 60$ more on EA profit will make them continue this trend. Please, stop it.

    If you're a shooter fan, stay far away from this pile of garbage. It blows my mind that the same developer of the beloved Battlefield franchise can make something so bad. Even without the micro transactions Star Wars Battlefront 2 is simply not worth your time.

    Excellent online action offers hours of Stormtooper-shooting fun, but the so-so campaign stumbles, while cynical loot crates leave a sour taste. [Jan 2017, p.83]

    Star Wars Battlefront II provides a greater ambition than the previous installment. It has powerful war scenes, a brand new single player mode, and shows a much more magnificent Star Wars Universe. But just like the Jedi should be ware of the dark side of the Force, this game also meets some similar situations, such as beleaguered microtransaction elements and character growth problems. The first 10 hours of this game is full of surprises; however, the further you play this game, the more disappointed you will get.
