Nov 17, 2017Overall: A great game if you also happen to enjoy casinos.
Gameplay: Fun, fast-paced, exciting
Visuals: Great! The world is immersive and really takes you to the places in the SW universe.
Sound Design: Perfect.
The team at Dice really outdid themselves. If it wasn't for EA trying to suck each and every last dollar out of their customers, this game might have actually done well. -

Nov 17, 2017Not all of us will fall for your nasty tricks EA. I'm tired of gaming companies putting all of this time into and game and then ruining what could be great, for money.

Nov 17, 2017Heavily pushed micro-transactions in a pay to win loot based system reminiscent of Free to play mobile games that no one enjoys. This is where gaming is headed. We need to show developers that we WILL NOT stand for this. It's disgusting that a full price, AAA game is pay to win with such a heavy emphasis on loot. DO NOT PURCHASE/ SUPPORT THIS GREEDY BEHAVIOR.
-
Nov 17, 2017This game is a 0. That simple. Everything said about this game is what i have to say but its been said enough. Dont support this crap. Bad business practices. Bad pr. Bad grind. Unfinished campaign. Pay 2 win. Bad game

Nov 17, 2017EA has ruined gaming. It's ridiculous they they are allowed to get away with this type of stuff. They need to hear the voices of the gamers. I'm glad their stocks are falling.
-
Nov 17, 2017A travesty for the gaming industry.
Totally Pay to win like a mobile game. It's a shame, because this game had potential, Dice is a great studio, but the greedy cash garbing publisher EA made it pay to win.
I hope this will not bleed into the Battlefield franchise. -
Nov 17, 2017You are the pandemonium and soulless people who are responsible for implementing the slides and mechanics P2W. May all this be a lesson to you that we are not idiots. And I will be sure to play every next game from you
-
Nov 17, 2017Shameless cash-in to exploit consumers. EA is a predator. Do not buy this game. Disney needs to do the right thing and take the Star Wars license back and give it to a company that will not shart in its consumers' faces.
-
Nov 17, 2017I have just seen a fully upgraded Darth Vader in-game. The player played like absolute garbage and also seemed to lag a bit and he still mowed down so many enemies. They were like NPCs ( Non player characters aka non paying customers) This is the worst game design I have seen in like forever... Good job EA, you reeeeeaally nailed this one
-
Nov 17, 2017Beautiful game, with great campaign! Multiplayer is awesome and I was able to unlock every hero in just a few hours. Cost nothing extra just score points to upgrade! Great game
-
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017infested with gambling boxes which ruin an average game. Disney should know better than to encourage gambling to children.
One of the worst Pay to win game yet. DO NOT BUY. Do not support Ea and Disney's attempt to get Minors hooked on this gambling simulator. -
Nov 17, 2017I played the beta and it was a fun and beautiful game that looked to be a true successor to the classic Battlefront games. But then EA just had to come in and **** everything up, so I just wanted to post this review to say **** EA and **** their greedy practices. They won't be getting a single cent from me and I encourage everybody to vote with their wallets on this one.

Nov 17, 2017I never expected less comming from EA, The moneymakers. This is just sad, if we dont say something this kind of games will continuously go on.
This **** lootboxes is like a virtual casino, gamers are not cumpulsive gamblers, or at least the sensible ones.
Stop buying lootcrates, and just refound games like that. Its the only way of dealing with this enterprises. -
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017a game completely destroyed by the abysmal practices of the developer, im sorry for dice , but ea is garbage
thanks for scaming the star wars fanbase -
Nov 17, 2017Micro transaction has gone too far in the gaming industry, this needs to be put to a stop and only the gamers can make this happen. Do not support EA and their money hungry business practice, it all started with monopolizing the NFL with it's Madden franchise and now this. It'll only get worse before it gets better but it doesn't mean it can't start now.
-
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017The P2W progression system carelessly shoved into the core of this game is the prime example of everything wrong with EA's business model and the direction of the gaming industry in general. I wish I could give the game a negative rating, but 0 will have to do. Do not buy this game if you have any integrity whatsoever.
-
Nov 17, 2017Just do not buy it, dont support EA
If we continue to buy games for $ 60 with microtransactions, then it will only get worse
Sorry for DICE, but we need to fight with corporate greed -
Nov 17, 2017Loot boxes and "micro-transactions" are absolutely unacceptable in an $60 AAA game. Keep that sh*t for the free mobile games. This could be a good game, but EA's greed ruins it all, and don't believe that micro-transactions are gone. They are gonna come back and in greater numbers.
-
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017Microtransactions galore. Loot boxes encourage your kid to spend additional money. This is a money grabbing attempt by EA. If you dont want your kids spending $2,000 on your credit cards dont buy this gambling emulator.
-
Nov 17, 2017I would not have purchased this game had i known that they removed the offline mode for Starfighter Assault. I only got the game for the Starfighter Assault mode and since i dont have allot of time to invest in online games I was mostly just going to mess around offline, but as this isnt an option it makes this game completely useless for my play style. Total waste of $80.
-
Nov 17, 2017Micro-transactions. So what they disabled it now? They wanted to f*** us. It will be remembered EA
I bought almost all of their games based on DICE's Frostbite engine, but now they did too much
Game is great, micro-transactions aren't and it makes me sad, EA made me sad :( -
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017Full priced, pay to win game plagued with micro transactions that is mediocre at best. AAA needs to move past taking advantage of its customers and start making good games focused on game play, not on exploiting gamers.
-
Nov 17, 2017Mediocre shooter game play and the story is just ok nothing special.
I know the fee to win aspect as been removed at the moment but the fact that they are going to reintroduce them later does not sit well.
A few glitches are there as well like getting temporarily stuck in portions of the map or on one occasion falling through the map but these can be easily fixed i hope in a patch. -
Nov 17, 2017Don't let your kids play this, the game is basically a gambling system made to be pay 2 win. It's despicable what is allowed. The graphics are good, but that's it, the campaign is terrible, the multiplayer gets boring really fast, and get ready to die 24/7 unless you want to spend some major $$ on it..
-
Nov 17, 2017PAY, PAY, PAY to win.
Loot-boxes temporarily removed while gambling authority's review EA's tactics. Really? EA really showing they will do anything to milk a gamer. -
Nov 17, 2017Far from perfect, but a very enjoyable shooter with a great multiplayer and a perfectly okay storyline. After the loot box fiasco, EA has taken out the microtransactions and the game can only get better from here.
-
Nov 17, 2017Oh, how I love paying for a game and paying more to play it.
Do not encourage EA by buying this game, or if you have, do not buy any microtransaction. -
Nov 17, 2017Done supporting games that promote gambling to children. Dice, EA and Disney are sick sick companies. Refunded this game as soon as I seen it had loot crates in it.
-
Nov 17, 2017This game is just bad, straigt out bad. Tries to abuse the gamer to spent more money to Get progression in the game. Games have dine so more Ane more the latest years, but this is terrible. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!
-
Nov 17, 2017Le système de lootbox est un scandale et c'est pour cette raison que je met zéro et que je n'achèterai pas le jeu.Je suis désolé pour tout le staff qui a fait un super boulot sur le jeu.
-
Nov 17, 2017
-
Nov 17, 2017I'm sick and tired of gambling in videogames. This game is all over the place with loot boxes and microtransactions. I hope this sets an example for games to come.
-
Nov 17, 2017Even with the horrible progression system aside, the story is boring and the gunplay is mediocre at best, please hire the writes of SWKOTOR if you want an actual compelling story in a star wars game.
-
Nov 17, 2017This is a classic EA game, $2100 to unlock everything in the game? lootboxes for a fully priced AAA game? This is yes another recycled garbage that was looking forward to cashing in on your ignorance
Respect yourself, avoid it like a plague -
Nov 17, 20174500 hs para desbloquear el contenido... O pagar 2 mil dolares... JA JA JA JA! Segui asi EA...
ASi te va a ir. Me dan nauseas, asco y sigo llenando caracteres. -
Nov 17, 2017I am not buying this trash. EA is a joke. EA hasn't published a great game in years due to their greed. They shut down great dev teams, and recently began forcing pay2win microtransactions into their newest games. I will not support EA and Will never buy this game. Stop ruining star wars and games in general.

Nov 17, 2017Overall it's a good game, although it does have its flaws. The maps are stunning and the game play is also very pleasing. The credit earning system needs to be more skill based rather than just time played rewards. If you are considering buying the game understand that you will have to put a very large amount of time in if you want to get anything good for your character.
-
Nov 17, 2017DO NOT BUY!
This is the epitome of greed from the greediest gaming company in the world.
Not only that but the entire game is a copy and paste first person shooter. -
Nov 17, 2017Nope! Not going to support this loot box, pay for an advantage model. This kind of practice is creeping into all the big titles this year and it has to STOP!!!
-
Nov 17, 2017Ayer mismo cancele mi preventa, muy mal EA. Esperemos que pronto recapacites sobre querer verle la cara a tus clientes primero con tu campaña anti DLC y luego con tus micropagos.
-

Nov 17, 2017They took the micro-transactions out, but it's only temporary, and it's not goodwill, it's PR panic and damage control. Screw these game industry execs for attempting to milk us all dry.
-
Nov 17, 2017after joining a game with friends getting owned by a vader that was unkillable we all refunded what a load of garbage, only way to have fun is to spend extra money which is really stupid has I had already paid for the game
very dissapointed -

Nov 17, 2017Barely an improvement on the last one, gives a bad name to the original Battlefront 2, and of course it doesn't respect the player, their time, or their money.

Nov 17, 2017Juego lastrado por sus malas políticas, no lo compren ni a 1usd, que si apoyamos éstas políticas nuestro hobbie desaparecerá. El juego en sí no es malo, pero su pay to win descarado anula la experiencia satisfactoria de jugarlo.
-
Nov 17, 2017We not allowed PAY TO WIN model in a $60,$70,$99 or wathever not free to play game...EA say is an PAY TO FAST **** IS PAI TO WIN, PAI TO WIN....no more and no less, good bye BATTLEFRON 2 , you screw all DICE work in hand of an evil corporate call EA..
-
Nov 17, 2017Whilst overall Dice has made a fairly good looking game, it's still the standard "EA Shooter" with a Star Wars skin. Still no true "ironsights".
In reality, this is just another greedy cash grab from EA- Battlefront 2015- just with more layers of wrapping paper. -
Nov 17, 2017The ability to purchase crystals in-game will become available at a later date. NO THANK YOU. Disney please address this blatant predatory gambling system. My kid loves Star Wars and he really wants to play this game. But it should not be making him a gambling addict!!!
-
Nov 17, 2017EA did something very difficult... It made people hate Star Wars themed game... Bravo
What is worse, people will buy it (thanks You very much) and EA will continue doing 'great' job. -
Nov 17, 2017Shame on EA!
Short story,microtransactions,annoying lootboxes,....
You cant even use your pre order dlc and deluxe upgrade on others user of your console :/ -
Nov 17, 2017The unethical practices of EA have surpassed any acceptable limits. THIS IS NOT WHAT GAMES SHOULD BE. They have the right to do business the way they want, we as consumers should vote with our wallets. This time for real, because it's not the first time EA does this.
-
Nov 17, 2017This is a ridiculous game. Not because of graphics, or gameplay, but for EA's decision to include microtransactions on it. It is disgusting and a shame for the Star Wars franchise #RIPLUCASARTS
-

Nov 17, 2017Don't Buy this game
Game is fine but you need to pay alot more for other feature that you are deserved to begin with.
.................................... -
Nov 17, 2017As you can see EA in their own way they can spoil their games, in that they are the best by their greed. May I have a hiccup on this pawn? I'm asking other players that this game is weak
-
Nov 17, 2017All this talk of loot is getting out of hand. The idea of loot boxes etc etc is basically the same as Overwatch etc etc so dont let that affect the games. The game itself is brilliant fun and pushes the original to even higher platforms

Nov 17, 2017This is sick psychological manipulation in a full priced game. It takes only one peace of straw to brake the camels back. This has to stop children play star wars games. pay to win and gambling have NO PLACE in a full priced game aimed at adolescents.
-

-
Nov 17, 2017Vote with your wallet, vote NO to the future of the video game indsutry taking advantage of gamers who don't research before they pre-order a game that looks good but is full of monetized bullcrap.
-
Nov 17, 2017Im so dissapointed, i give up on EA, microtransactions completly ruin this game trash pure trash i hate dice too by not im just filling so that i can get to the 150 characters
-
Nov 17, 2017Every thing its perfect except the progress system, looks like EA has done some changes right today and looks better, thats why I give this score 8/10.
I dont defend this type of progress system, but its a good game, DICE has done a great job and I think that they shouldn't get so bad scores for only a bad progress system.
I honestly, with the last changes its not so bad. -
Nov 17, 2017A mediocre game with simplistic and limited gameplay, a poor campaign and small selection of content that has been brought even lower by a frankly insane micro-transaction system which all but forces players to shell out more money to play the only partly enjoyable aspect of the game.
This game was designed to exploit consumers, pathetic attempt. -

Nov 17, 2017I am so sick of every game nowadays having loot crates. This practice has to stop. EA and other game companies dont even care about the games anymore, its all about microtransactions. Pay2Win should only be applied to Free2Play games and nothing else. EA ruined Medal of Honor and now they are turning Battlefront into a complete joke.
-
Nov 17, 2017Had Pre-ordered the game, but realized I don't have enough time (4000+ hours) or enough money ($2100+) to get fully play the game. So for those reasons, I will not be giving EA my $60.
-
Nov 17, 2017This is truly the beautiful and great game. Unfortunately EA made some errors (that have been addressed) but this game should not be punished for their mistakes. I will be playing this game for months and enjoying every star wars second
-
Nov 17, 2017Don't buy this game. It is just made to take your money. EA are just **** that don't give a **** about gaming. Don't support this bull****.
Never I have seen a full priced game with free-to-play progression system.
Do not buy. -
Nov 17, 2017

Nov 17, 2017Don’t buy this game..
It’s a rip off.. They actually got caught trying to take children’s money with loot crates....
Avoid this title, might be time to boycott EA. -
Nov 17, 2017Micro transactions up to 2100 $ ? **** you EA, you're one greedy company. I do not even care how good the game may be, they way you responded on Reddit as a company said enough.
-
Nov 17, 2017они убрали микротранзакции. геймеры победили. EA отступила. Можете прочитать в твиттере.
Сюжет классный. Графика, как и в 1 части - на уровне. советую -

Nov 17, 2017Like an idiot, I pre-ordered the FIRST Star Wars Battlefront. The game was so bad I burned it.
I am one of those people who actually refused to buy the next (this) Battlefront, knowing full well it would also be awful.
If games like The Witcher can be great for $60.00 then all games can.
Stop buying this crap people. -
Nov 17, 2017don't let this sh*t become the future of games. If we let this pass more and more companies will decide to go this way. We really need to stop this here and don't buy. Just don't buy. Enough great games out there. Please just ignore this one for a better future.
-
Nov 17, 2017EA thinks we are stupid. Ok, we, you, everyone know that there are too many stupid people around there that will buy your **** no matter what, and you decided long time ago that they are your target.
Perfect! Enjoy your ****

Playstation Official Magazine UKFeb 6, 2018Excellent 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]
-
Jan 21, 2018Star 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.

Dec 29, 2017Although game has huge problems with p2w microtransactions, it is still a good and fun gameplay experience with stunning visuals.
