    Slightly better than it was but just because they got caught and changed this time doesnt mean we aren't going to get the same thing with star wars battlefront 3 (If they were smart they would just remaster the original battlefront 2)

    Amazing game! The devs worked incredibly hard to improve the game from its terrible start, and now it is now the most complete battlefront experience created! Lots of maps, nearly all important content available offline, lots of characters, heros, gamemodes, an ok campaign. A great game altogether. Wish the bugs were patched though.

    Its the best Star Wars game existing. It deserves a way better rating. Sure it misses legendary characters like Ahsoka and Padme and needs some fixes and tweaks but its definitly not as bad as the rating shows. It improved very much since launch and got rid of its biggest minus points thanks to the developer team. It deserves more content updates.

    This game is very good. sure in the beginning it was overlooked because of the lootbox controversy. But since then the developers at DICE really worked their skins off too revive the game and even if it's sad they didn't get in everything i wanted like ashoka, coruscant among others It went from a mess at launch to become one of the best shooters out there. If you have a chance go give it a try.

    EA corrected their mistakes, though late. Removed all donat altogether. The game began to live, a lot of content and a lot of updates. The graphics are excellent for 2017, although it is now 2020. Unfortunately, the game is no longer supported. It is sad that Ahsoku Tano was not added to Battlefront 2, although there were hints of this.

    Cuando este juego se lanzó en 2017, fue un completo desastre, por el simple hecho de que el juego en sí, estaba plagado de micro transacciones. Se podría decir que se volvió odioso el tener que pagar todo para poder desbloquear todo.
    Hoy en día, disfruto mucho el juego, ya que eliminaron casi en su totalidad, las micro transacciones.

Se podría decir que se volvió odioso el tener que pagar todo para poder desbloquear todo.
    Hoy en día, disfruto mucho el juego, ya que eliminaron casi en su totalidad, las micro transacciones. Me gusta mucho los diseños de los personajes, ya que son exactamente iguales al de las películas (excepto Harrison Ford como Han Solo), también las subidas de niveles de los personajes es entretenido y puedes introducirles multiplicadores para que sean un poco más fuertes.
    La historia no me gustó para nada, la introducción del personaje Iden Versio, fue completamente innecesaria, me hubiera conformado con que sea solo multijugador como Overwatch. El multijugador es completamente entretenido y lo disfrutas demasiado (por lo menos en mi caso), puedes elegir entre las facciones que fueron apareciendo a lo largo de las películas desde los separatistas hasta la primera orden, tiene modo cooperativo para jugar con tus amigos.
    El ganar experiencia y subir de nivel es, relativamente, fácil pero el ganar dinero, para comprarle accesorios a tus héroes, puede ser complicado pero posible.
    Disfrute mucho el multijugador más que la historia, por lo que recomiendo jugarlo en algún momento y, si no eres fan de Star Wars o no lo conoces, este definitivamente sería una buena introducción a su universo.    … Expand

    Игра шикарна в плане графики. Но Данат всё портит. Да кейсов больше нет но остались кристаллы. Из за всего этого появился диз баланс.

    Очень хочу чтобы в 3 части Даната не было но это не возможно. Жаль.

    Updated: The game has had multiple overhauls in the last few months that have completely changed my opinion on Star Wars BF2. While it isn't perfect, the commitment from EA and DICE to keep going with the game is commendable. New modes, Heros, offline options, customization, guns, and maps have turned a blatant cash grab into a fun arcade shooter that is definitely worth a few bucks. MyUpdated: The game has had multiple overhauls in the last few months that have completely changed my opinion on Star Wars BF2. While it isn't perfect, the commitment from EA and DICE to keep going with the game is commendable. New modes, Heros, offline options, customization, guns, and maps have turned a blatant cash grab into a fun arcade shooter that is definitely worth a few bucks. My original review still stands for the launch version, but if you want a fun Star Wars experience it's definitely worth a shot.

    Original Review: I will never buy a digital game months in advance again. Battlefront 2 was my most anticipated game for this year and after dumping 30 hours into it since Tuesday I can confidently say I want my $60 back. It's sad that a game released in 2017 has less appeal and content then the game it was based on that released in 2005. I can tell that a lot of love went into the game but unfortunately shoddy business tactics ruin the entire experience. I'm done with these "freemium" $60 games developers keep shoving down our throats, I make my stand here and I will no longer tolerate this deplorable market of filth. EA and DICE, don't try to tell us microtransactions are optional and then lock the game behind hundreds if not thousands of hours of gameplay if a person doesn't want to pay. Games ARE optional, nobody has to play your game. There are tons of great games on the market RIGHT NOW that are cheaper and don't nickle and dime us with petty paywall nonsense. Hopefully this game crashes and burns, I'd be surprised if it holds its $60 pricemark for 2 months.

    If you guys do this to Battlefield 5 I'm never buying another EA game again.    … Expand

The game sometimes legit is unplayable and with its terrible matchmaking you barely even play the game online. Ok how about the story mode is it any good? No it’s terrible, they baited you in the trailers it’s so bad. And now to the reason I hate this game the most, the progression system. It’s seriously a broken mess, yes you level up the hero or trooper and get a card right? Yeah but what if you also want to be overpowered before anybody else. They added Microtransactions it’s one of the worst things to ever be added thus far, you even need to buy some hero’s what the heck! Star Wars Battlefront 2 is the biggest video game disappointment of the decade, with it’s terrible online story matchmaking and progression. (Garbage 0/5) Belongs In The Trash… Expand

    At it's release, I'll admit, it was pretty shady and had many faults. However, the state today is an amazing star wars game with so much content from every era. EA redeemed themselves

    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.
