    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я сделал предзаказ игры в день старта продаж. Сразу скажу, что заказ не отменял (хотя стоило бы), ибо сама по себе игра у DICE вышла хороша, а играть я в нее все-же хочу.

    Поиграл уже и скажу так:

    - P2W есть
    - Гриндилка есть
    - Тимплея нет

    Глупые системы спавна (очень). Чего добились - не ясно вообще. Хотели командной игры, а в итоге игра, в которую приятно было бы(!) играть компанией не предусмотрена для игры компанией. Искать товарищей? Ждать? Договариваться "тыкай спавн"? Вы серьезно?!

    "Качайте карты в фиолет, дабы дамажить гранатками как в 1 части (привычно)" - идите в задницу с такими заявками. Я хочу работающую без доната игру. Его нельзя оправдать тут.
    Как не называй - "ускорение прокачки", "экономия времени" - купленные блогеры идут вон вместе с ЕА. Я просто хочу зайти и играть, без кейсов и челов 25 уровня на старте игры в 1 же день.

    Настроек у игры маловато (хотя со времен ОБТ добавили). Настройки звука то где, ау? Озвучка некоторых персонажей (как и их морды) были лучше в 1 части (а там еще на родном языке, ага).
    Ну и размеры HUD не поменять, тоже стремно

    Контента мало! Да, мало! Заявили 6 сторон в 3 эпохах, вот только даже до первой части классики не дотянули в плане разнообразия контента (Вуки на Камино, каламбур на всех картах в целом). Сравните сами сколько вам дали истребителей и танков (+шагоходов) там (2005) и тут (2017). Надеюсь он будет добавляться.

    Экономика мертва в игре. У нас классическая схема F2P шутера типа "Героев и генералов".
    Скилл твой никому не нужен, кредиты ты получишь за часы в игре. Пиздец.
    Статистика доступна только личная. Хз чего стоит добавить счетчик смертей в общий TAB.

    Кампания на 35. Серая и безвкусная.

    По итогу имеем хороший шутерок для фанов SW, лишенный духа далекой галактики, набитый донатом.
    Для ЕА отдельное место на свалке - у гнилых туш. Так врать людям (сначала "мы изменили лутбоксы", потом "мы заменили цены героев") нужно "уметь". Надеюсь, что Disney откажутся от затеи работать с компанией или хоть наведут порядок. Жалко только купивших, донатящих и DICE.

    Random items in loot boxes/crates should not dictate the progress I make in a game. My performance is what should dictate the progress I make in the game. What incentives are there to get better? Anyone can just grind for credits....

    Absolutely trash. This isn't a game, it's an illegal gambling system that goes through enough loopholes just to slip past regulations in the U.S. This is ridiculous, and I think that a boycott is in order, and that Congress needs to investigate this matter. Games like Battlefront are literally encouraging kids (and adults) to gamble. Stay far away.

    Still has less content than the original battlefront 2 that came out in 2005. Campaign is short. Pay to win baby. They said that they wanted to make unlocking a hero an achievement but what they did was make it a grind. World of Warcraft killed Everquest because they took away grinding. Couldn't play heroes vs villains because all of my unlocked heroes were taken.....

    Very disappointing that EA has decided to ruin a potentially good game with a poorly thought out and greedy progression system. Even after reducing grinds significantly they are still too long and a loot box based progression system may be one of the most toxic ideas that I have ever seen and is clearly testing the boundaries of how much money they can squeeze from consumers.

    I used to play most of EA's game. But damn, Battlefront II is a hell of a money grinding game made by some business men who understand nothing about video games, except "it's makes money".
    Seriously, EA should start making phone games instead of trying to create PC games. It'll never work, the community is way more smarter than a group of **** in a chair.

    After the Mass Effect disaster, this one takes the cake. Some people don't have 40-60+ hours to unlock 1 or 2 things. This microtransactions stuff is not getting out of hand, it IS out of hand. Hopefully this game is the start of the downfall.

They sold the game with the promise that it would deliver a story focused on the empire and their side of everything but it's an absolute embarrassment with the exact ending everyone with a brain could have predicted months ago. Lootboxes are the next scam. EA lied about addressing the issue and barely changed anything. After being completely confused by actual criticism since it is a Star Wars game and we all know that everything sells well as long as it is called SW, EA came up with the excuse that it is justified to grind for more than 40 hours to unlock a hero (unless you pay for them of course). Keep in mind that this does not include other unlocks like guns, attachments or upgrades for your class or ship. It will take you much longer if you want to have a balanced experience. Battlefront 1 was a mediocre game. It's biggest flaw was that it was too similar to other games and had nothing particularly interesting about it. Battlefront 2 however is just a pathetic excuse to take money from gullible people. The barely improved gameplay can't save the game. This game needs to be condemned by all people who'd consider themselves gamers. Need for Speed Payback received terrible reviews for doing the same things. Don't let them get away with this just because it has Star Wars in the title. Expand

    It's too bad that people aren't talking about the mechanics of the game, and just the optional in-game purchases, because the flight controls are actually really well done. It's satisfying to get kills in the vehicles, and they all take skill to operate. The third person aspect is pretty cool too, and a lot of the locations look like they were taken right from the movies.

    этап 1 разослали журналистам, все негодовали от транзакций, которые мешают играть нормально
    ЕА пообещали убрать...
    этап 2 выход игры ЕА тупо увеличивает! цены на всё в 6 раз
    все бунтуют
    этап 3 ЕА снижает цены в 4 раза, но при этом снижает скорость накопления валюты

Данную игру я ждал, так как являюсь фанатом вселенной Звездных Войн и в первую часть на плойке отыграл много часов поэтому пройти мимо просто не мог. Знакомство с второй частью у меня началось на PS4 во время беты, игра понравилась новыми режимами, приятной картинкой и отсутствием фризов-это же PS4, тут их и не должно быть. Однажды прихожу я домой и вижу на Ютубе ролик, мол какой-то человек гамает в пробную версию на Пк, так началось мое знакомство с этой игрой на ПК, до этого слышал много информации про лутбоксы, но не обратил внимания на них, потому что есть везде и во все что я играл они мне не мешали. После дня игры на пк решил все-таки предзаказать на PS4, ибо на пк постоянно куча читеров, небольшой онлайн и в дневное время игроков не найти. Когда 13.11 я запустил игру, то увидел первую часть только с увеличенным в двое количеством контента и не пожалел ниразу, в итоге мне удалось поиграть в релизную версию и я увидел, что все те кто ныли по поводу того, что герои стоят дорого все-таки своего добились и теперь Вейдер вместо 60к стоит 15, считаю это полным идиотизмом, так резко менять цену, считал эту цену нормальной, так как была бы мотивация на игру в будущем да и от того ,что я смог накопить 60к я бы ощущал себя уберменшем. После этого я открыл все лутбоксы, что давались мне за предзаказ и пошел мочить джедайскую погань в мультиплеер результатом стало поражение, но по kda 20 килов, что для меня краба с клешнями довольно-таки неплохо. Далее поиграл в сюжет и могу сказать он неплох, прошел неполностью ,но миссия со Люком зашла на все 146%. Хочу резюмировать все выше мной сказанное,игра отличная, лутбоксы никак не мешают нормально играть,сюжет завлекает, донатить в данный проект никакого желания нет да и не будет, так как все можно сделать своими силами, а это чувство может появится только у морально слабых людей, которые пишут нулевые отзывы, идут за стадом и не имеют своего мнения. Поэтому ставлю 10, фанатам Звездных Войн играть обязательно остальным проходить мимо и не засирать данный проект. Expand

    This game represents everything wrong with the industry. In the year of the lootbox and the "games-as-a-service" nonsense game publishers spout continuously, gamers' money is increasingly stolen right out of their wallets with fewer and fewer benefits in return each month that passes. Star Wars Battlefront II EA is a new step towards a reality where games are a luxury of the few, and a only a small taste to the many.

    Multiplayer... Buy the game for it. And it's good. It is also very beautiful, the gameplay is good. But! It's PAY TO WIN. People who won't buy loot boxes will lose to players who spend money on the loot boxes - IT's a FACT! There is no normal progression system, like in all games. If you're not in the first place, then simply you will not have points to play a character. It's awful! I want to relax and take in the game, and sometimes play the hero. But if I am not a god in the game, then I will not play a hero. And the gods will be those who will buy loot boxes. At least a couple of months while the rest of them will not catch up without spending real money.

No big.

    When I jumped into the multi player I was really underwhelmed. It was a lot like the last game and while the settings/characters are cool, some maps just look way better then others this time around. I'm not saying that it was deal breaking bad graphics, but for some reason there was weird draw in at very short distances for textures and smaller non moving pieces as well as poor lighting while planet side. The Death Star seemed more polished then Kashyyyk, however I was disillusioned that setting don't seem to be utilized beyond the visuals do break up or add anything to game play. And speaking of game play it feels like it has devolved somehow from the last game. The controls and aiming just don't feel as tight. Even more upsetting to me was I was under the impression that the more "Arcade" style of the last game would take a back seat in this time around, but it's amped up with a stronger focus on star cards. They have you plugging away at them from the get go.

    Lastly, the campaign story is just pathetic and I have to applaud whoever it was that made getting into a AT-AT the most boring thing you could do in a Star Wars video game. Bravo. That took some skill. Without giving any spoilers I have to say the character arcs and turns are just abusive to the fans. We are very used to the more intelligent stories we have been getting in the current Star Wars universe and if they are saying that this is canon then I might have to rethink preordering my movie tickets for "The Last Jedi."

    Not the worst game ever so I'll give it a few weeks and see what happens after a few patches.

    Oh and the cover system really needed to be updated from the last game. It was one of the weaker parts of the gameplay, but it is exactly the same which is to say that it basically doesn't exist.

    ONE UPDATE - While playing the campaign I experienced strange flickering during cut scenes. It would just go black for a quarter of a second over and over again during cut scenes creating a strange flashing. Seriously, if you have epilepsy don't play this game until this bug is fixed.

    I preordered this game and dont regret a thing. Unlocking characters is easy and FREE!!!! If u dont want to pay money you dont have to. Honestly this game is so fun and it's great to shoot and kill hundreds of people as that is what i like to do in games. If u think you are too smart for this game why dont u play some awful indie or puzzle game, losers

    I would never pay $60 for a game that uses microtransactions like this. What a disgusting moneygrab.
    The fact that EA removed the refund button for people who preordered this trainwreck of a game and now makes people call in and wait in order to get their money back is ridiculous.

    It is all really sad because the game actually looks good to say the only positive thing first, it might not be that long term game, since the game is very simplified and made for a casual audience but then you have the fulltime job grind which is carefully adjusted by EA so that you are one of the few % who indulge in the profitable microtransactions, because it takes so damn long.

    This game is a psychological experiment and P2W construct to extract money from whales via microtransactions (or should i say macrotransactions?), neatly disguised in the shiny Star Wars pew pew license with super Graphics and you as player who just bought the $60-100 game have to indulge in a fulltime job like grind to gain gameplay upgrades and at the same time become the 'product' for the whales who buy all the crates they can get day to get all the upgrades and bash all the underequipped players on their paid powertrip. Right there they disqualify themselves, you simply don't put gameplay relevant upgrades into the progression. Evolve made that mistake and now we it here too and it's even worse because it's directly tied to a P2W system.

    The point is how EA initially wanted to implement it 40h grind for 1 hero incentives left and right to participate in P2W microtransactions, after such a **** they surely make 'changes'. Probably some low effort number crunches to calm the masses of their gullible fanbase. These changes will be done to 'make the outrage outdated' (google that and read it, it's eyeopening). One of these changes was to reduce the cost of heroes by 75%, which is simply the 'Door-in-the-face technique. First the requirements are way too high, then they greatly reduce it to wash them clean again. It is all thought through and through and aimed to manipulate the gullible. They have a whole division of psychologists and focustest data so the know exactly how they can turn this to their advantage and come out on top.

    EA has reached a new low, a new point of moral bankruptcy which is unforgiveable. I for one recommend to make a mark and don't buy this game, as even the purchase will support their holy grail, the 'Games as a service initiative' Where all the big AAA publishers are part of and try to poison a new generation of gamers with this lootbox/gambling/p2W/psychological manipulation filth. Games are starting to be built from the GROUND up to support and encourage microtransactions, Battlefront 2 is the new pinnacle of anti consumer, with Take Two and Activision coming right after.

    But in the end it's all about the money and the publishers will bath in the money of all the whales and apathic fans who still buy it and just look away. This is their new target audience, this so called 'new generation of gamers', a mass of dumb gullible consumers who become a bait and 'Product' for P2W whales who wanna live their paid power trip. People need to wake up and boycott this game, EA has gone too far and it only gets worse from here.

    So i give this game a 1 for the good Star Wars graphix and hope that DICE can become independend like CD Projekt Red and IO Interactive to show those greedy manipulative publishers the cold shoulder and make games without these restraints. Right now they are slaves for the devil.

    This type of pay to win, loot box based progression system is the straw that broke the camels back.

    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.

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