Nov 14, 2017Loot boxes with power up's, realy? You realy think that we so stupid ? Dice is good devolopers , but EA do bed things and killing their game !EA, we are not a dogs , that means if you throw a roat meat to us , we will not eat it. From this moment , you will have very bad reputation , forever .
-
Nov 14, 2017After listening to EA’s response after much deliberation I took their advice to heart, and I have realized that I have gained a sense of pride and accomplishment by giving this game a 0.
-
Nov 14, 2017Is it too much to ask for a good game from EA these days? EA is attempting to mine every last morsel at the cost of customer loyalty. It's a real shame because at one point in time EA came out with some of the greatest games of all time...& now we get this garbage. Hey EA...take a look outside your little bubble, this formula isn't working for you & it doesn't work for us. Thumbs way down.
-
Nov 14, 2017The only way to change the slide of AAA games into candy crush p2w is to NOT BUY this and make sure to tell EVERY gamer you know how horrible it is. Punishing EA here can go a LONG way toward resisting games becoming phone based garbage.
-
Nov 14, 2017I don't mind progression in a game that i have paid for! But there is no doubt that this progression isn't for my enjoyment of the game, if at any point i feel like i should or need to pay more to progress then the system i have already paid for has failed! I didn't Pay for a Grind

Nov 14, 2017Сама игра очень даже ничего... Но блядь долбаные микротранзакции, игра и так стоит денег, а нас заставляют платить. Electronic Arts **** ****
-
Nov 14, 2017Biggest cluster f—k of a game I’ve ever seen. And it’s barely been out. Used to love Dice, not so much anymore. This game is all about the almighty dollar... certainly not the fans, that’s for sure. DON’T SUPPORT THIS BS OF A GAME. STAY AWAY UNTIL WE SEE SOME CHANGE TOWARDS THE FANS. SAY NO TO THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR!!!
-
Nov 14, 2017Nice job EA, nice job...
I'm sorry Dice.
I hope that most people who pre-ordered could cancel it, and I also hope that this will serve as a lesson for EA. -
Nov 14, 2017Unfortunately, as amazing and authentic as the graphics are, the game has been rendered unplayable due to the lootboxes, allowing players to pay for significant gameplay advantage - the normal skill required being disregarded in favour of how much a player is willing to pay. What could have been an amazing game is now forever tarnished by obnoxious business practices. How disappointing.
-
Nov 14, 2017Why this score? For the amount of GREED ea has. The game is so/so, but 40 hours for a single hero? Then lying about price drop when you actually have a credit earning drop as well, not changing anything? EA, the cancer of gaming!

Nov 14, 2017Bought this as a reward for finishing uni this year. I got the elite special whatever it's called edition in the preorder for early access, and I mainly bought it for the campaign hoping for something almost like Mass Effect. Felt like a Call of Duty campaign. Thanks for cancelling Visceral's Star Wars game EA.
-
Nov 14, 2017The game would've been great, if they hadn't completely ruined the balancing/progression with micro-transactions. The visuals and game play are solid enough, but the greed is what shines through the most here. I will no longer support any EA game, as long as it has any form of micro-transactions in it.
-
Nov 14, 2017No, just no. Glorious graphics and SW universe is not "all what we need from MP-orient game". That is still important things but not the main. Balance and playability - the foundation was destroyed.
So if main mechanic was missed, are there any reasons to look for pros? -

Nov 14, 2017Насмотрелись дрю и побежали ставить отрицательные отзывы. Уверен, что половина хейтеров даже не играла в этот шедевр. Сам поиграл уже 10 часов, ни разу не почувствовал, что кто-то имеет передо мной преимущество.
10/10 -
Nov 14, 2017Очень хорошая игра с очень плохой подачей игрового прогресса, сейчас бы запихать в ААА игру за которую ты и так отдал $ 60 лутбоксы, браво ЕА. Такую дичь не каждая FreeToPlay игра позволить себе может.

Nov 14, 2017its a shame what EA done to this franchise!! the only purpose of this game its to pay and pay until you have it all!! what is the fun about that??? and come on!! a four hour campaign, its seem like they just put it there because they where force to do it, even so they do a terrific job, they are just lazy and use the same graffic motor for al the games, plausible, and the multiplayer sucks!
-
Nov 14, 2017One word Scammers
This game is all about EA making money. Everyone vote with your wallet. It is about time we see EA fail. I was so excited about this game! Screw you EA. -

-
Nov 14, 2017Cannot recommend to anyone. The game has a greedy loot box progression system which rewards those who spend more money with more upgrades to their character. THIS GAME IS PAY TO WIN.
-
Nov 14, 2017This is how I'd some up how the ground assault in multiplayer works, if your defending your most likely going to win, if your assaulting your most likely going to lose. I could go on and on about the other problems in this game but I only have 5000 characters to type. it astonishes me how highly this game is being rated by critics.
-
Nov 14, 2017Enough is enough. Cut the micro-transaction, loot box, and pay-to-win crap. If CD Projekt Red can create arguably one of the greatest games of all time (Witcher 3) with 1/4 of the assets that EA has, there is no excuse for this crap attempt at a sub-par game to try and weasel as much money as you can from your consumers. I hope now EA is realizing we aren't a bunch of lemmings.
-
Nov 14, 2017Ea and there stupid loot boxes and pay to win method needs to go! They completely ruined the star wars franchise stop supporting the evil corporation and their business policies!
-
Nov 14, 2017I've voted 1, and if I could I'd vote 0, you can not make this game a pay to win, there's no fun on a nood killing you just because he's got a bigger wallet than you, until EA don't treat the consumers like they deserve I wont spend a single coin on his company
-
Nov 14, 2017This game has a basic campaign, a pay to win multiplayer, a crappy and greedy company behind, and so many whales wanting to try this glorified casino. Value productions are sky high just like similar games you can play on those proprietary Konami pachinko. 10/10, kids love gambling.
-
Nov 14, 2017What do you get for $60? A short single-player campaign and pay2win lootboxes. Do not buy this game, because you do not want to support EA. The company only cares about money, they don't give a single crap about the consumers.
-
Nov 14, 2017Ноль !!! ЕА! Вы в край офигели. Игра тебя заставляет донатить ! Просто обмазана донатом

Nov 14, 2017EA, It's time for you to learn that money is not everything.
You have to listen to the players, not buy them with false promises, or cheat them.
It's time EA -
Nov 14, 2017You’ll better off saving your money for the movie in December... There are many games out there that are well worth your money. Stay away from this greedy pay to win game...

Nov 14, 2017I am really feel bad...because game is Super good
gameplay more good then in first Battlefront and bf 1
Its first game in last 2 years in which I played 7 hours on end !
and its super bad that EA games just broke the reputation of game...........
Gameplay is amazing ! good maps and good feeling of weapons -
Nov 14, 2017Here is a good rule of thumb to follow to avoid wasting your money. Check the cover of the game and see if it says EA on it. This is a good sign that you should avoid as the game contained within will be riddled with microtransactions, uninspired gameplay and general all round laziness.
-
Nov 14, 2017EA has charged full price for a free to play game with a pay to win system. Progression is locked behind the worst, and most sickeningly greedy loot crate system seen in a AAA title. This is not a game, it's a vehicle to rip off EA customers and turn players into payers.
-

Nov 14, 2017**** microtransaction stuff. Dont buy this **** Game! EA and other Companies are destroying Gaming with that **** I paid for this **** GAME! I wont pay anymore.

Nov 14, 2017I give this game 0/10 because it's a full priced game with the mobile game price model. It should be heavily discounted (like $19.99) or free to play with the option to pay for the campaign.
To copy EA, they can pay $9.99 to unlock additional review points. -
Nov 14, 2017We have to fight for gaming industry and not let EA bring this robbery system to an absolute standard. If gaming community wouldn’t protest against this, games will be ruined by greedy publishers like EA
-
Nov 14, 2017
-
Nov 14, 2017I can’t recommend this game to anyone in the current state. To feel constrained by a freemium progression system in a full retail game is ridiculous. If the campaign was a thorough and meaningful experience maybe some of the online elements could be slightly forgiven, but this is not the case.

Nov 14, 2017Хватит уже терпеть подобное отношение, хорошая игра, но компания творит такие фокусы что диву даёшься.
Хорошая игра, жаль компания уничтожила её. -
Nov 14, 2017Typical lootbox garbage and EA being scummy
>Put lootbox in game
>People say you don't earn enough credits for them
>Increase credits received by 75%
>Increase price of characters by 75%
Nice logic EA. -
Nov 14, 2017The single player is a bot mode shootout with a few decent moments, the multiplayer has lootbox advancement and feels clunky. Overall this game is an insult to fans and the game industry.
-
Nov 14, 2017The microtransactions are so crappy that I want to burn my copy but the solid multiplayer manages to save this game from falling into a pit off dissapiontmant and horror EA have put this game out before it was finished again and that is why this game has a crappy singleplayer microtransaction and LOOTCARTES.
-
Nov 14, 2017Worst business model in history of video game industry. Enjoy your 4000 h long grind. Sure you don´t need all cards just best versions and all emotes and other visual stuff but still, we are talking about hundreds of hours or dollars and that is the point... In a blink of an eye we got from 60$ to 600$
-
Nov 14, 2017I refuse to pay extra to be able to play at the same level as a player who has maxed out their credit card for advantages. What a greedy company, EA should be ashamed of this.
-
Nov 14, 2017Спасибо EA за донат, в очередной раз получит статус худшей компании в США, а их бечсплатные раздачи херня по сравнению с тем, что они сделали с этой игрой
-
Nov 14, 2017The complete bastardization of a franchise and utter predatory exploitation of its player base. Electronic Fart's opulence is an abominable cancer eviscerating the gaming industry. No more console wars between Xbox or Playstation, the real gamers unite with hatred towards Electronic Farts.

Nov 14, 2017This game looked promising until EA came and gave it the usual treatment. Abhorrent use of microtransactions and treating customers like idiots. Iconic characters are locked behind a paywall and buying lootboxes is "encouraged" (read "required") to stay competitive if you don't have hours a day to spend on this game. GG EA, no re
-
Nov 14, 2017The game is ruined by a greedy pay 2 win progression system. Save your money and dont support this horrible game. EA needs to learn to respect players.

Nov 14, 2017Microtransactions make this game amazing! I pay $60 for a full price game and then I have the pleasure of paying $100s more to play the whole game?! Incredible!

Nov 14, 2017This is the most mercenary game of the history, Star Wars game with Darth Vader locked and with 40h+ to unlock, credit earned in arcade mode is limoted (this is a mobili game???). Worst game of history.
-
Nov 14, 2017Awfull p2w system. Annoying progress methods. Thanks God free DLCs, but I shure theu are already finished & just waiting for usefull moment to being released. Evena good gamedesign & bearable gameplay wont save the publishers souls. Change ue mind EA. Before its too late.

Nov 14, 2017When you have to pay 60$ for the base game, and if you want the whole experience it is closer to 100$. yet You can't expect to get by without paying more, because look. EA expects you to pay even more with their Pay to Win system. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. pirate it for the story, and feel sorry for DICE because EA **** their game.
-
Nov 14, 2017Microtransactions are a feature we must not allow to appear in any games from now on. There is no valid justification for them, at least not for a full priced AAA game like this. Period.
-
Nov 14, 2017Absolutely horrible, this is perhaps the worst game of this decade, yes, even worse than Ride To Hell: Retribution.
EA is worse than Nazism and Comunism combined. -
Nov 14, 2017Those kind of IAP are just a scandal on mobile, but on a 60 bucks game? Shame on you, EA! Ripping of people is not what you guys should do. And that single player campaign? Come on guys!

Nov 14, 2017Great but short campaign and nice graphics. But progression's affected by the pay to win microtransactions, the multiplayer's just broken and lootboxe system's horrible. Bad experience with this game
-
Nov 14, 2017The game is fun and beautiful to look at, but the progression system is asinine and EA is using predatory micro-transactions in a full-price game. Please don't support this type of product.
-
Nov 14, 2017Micropagos, pay2win, campaña de 5 horas bla bla bla y mas mierdas, EA eres el mejor, enserio, te superas a cada instate en ser la peor compañia de videojuegos, te cagaste en los fans de star war, eres un cancer de la industria que debes desaparecer, el juego es bueno pero tus politicas una autentica basura

Nov 14, 2017EA is destroying every game they are releasing.
Literally and in practice, DO NOT BUY anything from these evil hands. Their games are FULL OF MICROTRANSACTIONS that will give advantage to rich players. For honor, need for speed and now this abomination.
Dont you remember battlefront 1 from them? It is all PAY TO WIN.
Dont buy this crap, kill this company already. -
Nov 14, 2017Terrible way to halt player progression which leads to some feeling the need to buy loot boxes. It's a form of gambling and should be kept out of all games, period.
-
Nov 14, 2017Would've had less of a problem if the loot boxes were specificially cosmetics like Overwatch.
However this is PAY TO WIN, a model which should be for free to play games, not for 60 bucks games. Hope this game undersells. Screw you EA. -
Nov 14, 2017The complete game costs $ 600 Is a gotcha. Nothing recommended. Do not buy it, it's a steal. There is no fun just giving money to EA. Do not be idiots, do not buy it.
-
Nov 14, 2017
-
Nov 14, 2017it is playable, that is the only positive thing i can say about this game, but the pay-to-win model make it awful to play, i would recomend the first game if you can get it for cheap with all the dlc, otherwise, don't play it
-
Nov 14, 2017
-
Nov 14, 2017If lootboxes - the only thing you love in your life - this game is for you! if you love pay to win system in 60$ games it is also a good choise for you!
-
Nov 14, 2017Full priced game with F2P mechanics and pay-to-win? No way. Go be greedy somewhere else, EA. Will never buy anything from you, ever. I hope that other major publishers will remember this s***storm for a long, long time and won't try anything like that.
-
Nov 14, 2017
-
Nov 14, 2017Please don't buy this game! We need to stop paying $60 for free to play games. Devs are taking content out of the core game and selling the rest of the game to you chunks. As a member of the gaming community we need to boycott all games like this.

Nov 14, 20171 because game is pretty. But micro-transactions and pay2win mechanics in 60$ AAA title are UNACCEPTABLE. Also, game is marketed to CHILDREN, does DISNEY accept micro-transactions and gambling in they Star Wars game, marketed to children? I don't think so.

Nov 14, 2017A thinly veiled gambling simulator targeted towards young kids with parents credit cards. Borderline illegal and EA has been busy making fake reviews to try to cover this up. Don't buy this game for your kid unless you want to introduce them to gambling

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.
