This game is getting better and the devs plans to ad more into it. We have 6 character added after the launch, new maps and game modes and there is news of more to come as this game is being focused by Dice and EA. So give it a try!    … Expand

    Micro-transactions ruined that game. Pay or grind for 12 hours. The multiplayer is no fun at all. And the campaign was okay, but that's all. Sadly, the campaign was the only thing I enjoyed a little bit. It's so sad what EA made of the Star Wars franchise. Don't buy this game!

    I always start with the positives so here we go,

    DICE NAILED the graphics and sounds. The Music feels like your playing Star Wars, the Blasters feel powerful. The graphics on all textures are amazing. And this is coming from a guy who puts graphics and artwork before anything.

    Some of the modes are actually good. Like Ewok hunt, Blast, and the new Capital Supremacy.

    Now on to the negatives

    While Loot-boxes are still a problem, they have become less forced. Sure you will get killed by a guy who has all maxed out cards, but thats not that common. I haven't purchased any loot-boxes or paid content, and i still have some fun playing.

    The story is terrible mainly because they REALLY try to emphasize that Iden is a strong, female Protagonist. She takes off her helmet about 50 times. You also barley see ANY emotion in the Story.    … Expand

Even the newer heroes and cosmetics that do cost credits are cheap and can be obtained in a few hours making the game feel satisfying with its progression and not grindy at all.

I’m not going to touch on the micro transactions, as many have already.

    Cons:
    1. Doesn’t appear to be any real matchmaking here. First time playing the multi and I’m getting owned by players with full load outs?!?
    2. Load times of this magnitude are unforgivable in these scenarios. It’s comparable to open world games that allow you to fast travel. It needs this time to reset and re-render the entire environment. Not when ending a match.
    3 Flying. Like last time they don’t seem to have a clue as to what they are doing. This was a huge WTF moment. True, they added the ability to roll this time, but they have 0 idea how flight controls should work.
    4. EA and Dice convinced Disney that they know what they are doing with the property, again.
    5. Solo game is incredibly short. For a game of this price, there should have been more.
    6. Spawning issues like in the first game, where you pop up where the enemy is standing by to kill you.

    Pros:
    1. Finally giving a story mode.
    2. Multiple solo options for the player that wants to be able to play a game for more than 20 seconds after spawning and not get gunned down as enemies are standing right there.
    3. Look and sound great.

    Conclusion:
    In the end, I was a masochist, thinking they would have done a better job this time. They got my money again, but after this I’ll never buy another EA/Dice game. The companies focus on providing sub standard games at premium prices and screw the customer over.

    If you haven’t bought it, DON’T. I suggest staying away, and warn you friends of the same. I wasted my money, learn from my mistake and don’t waste yours.    … Expand

The multiplayer was so unfair do to the pay to win system, which EA has created. For months it was a big giant mess. But after around 2018 EA has finally made some changes. They got rid of the loot crates. Well, most of it. You can now only buy them from in-game credits. They also changed the messy star card system. They added 3 new heroes, 1 new map and the time when I am writing this review, Anakin is nearly out with a new game mode. After this, I can only say one thing. Is this what took so long?

You’ve got the green and red blasters, you’ve got guys with lightsabers, you’ve got the heroes and villains of Star Wars, you’ve got Stormtroopers… at first glance, all seems right as rain. There are moments in combat where the flash of blaster fire and the sound effects all combine to make it seem like all is right in the world.Star Wars Battlefront 2 superficially looks like Star Wars. You’ve got the green and red blasters, you’ve got guys with lightsabers, you’ve got the heroes and villains of Star Wars, you’ve got Stormtroopers… at first glance, all seems right as rain. There are moments in combat where the flash of blaster fire and the sound effects all combine to make it seem like all is right in the world.

    And then you watch your character move around awkwardly in 3rd person and the illusion is totally broken.

    This is a game that awkwardly tries to put on a veneer of being Star Wars, but any sort of abrasion rapidly rubs off the paint and you’re left with something that never feels right. The whole thing feels very superficial, like you are awkwardly puppeting characters who are meant to represent stuff from the Star Wars universe, but you never feel like a part of the universe, or like any part of it is authentic. Movement is stiff, jumping is awkward, you cannot dash around in a satisfying way, and the characters who use the Force and light sabers feel weird as they run around waving their lightsabers around weightlessly and awkwardly zapping each other with lightning.

    The whole thing just feels off. It has the veneer of Star Wars, but it fails to make you feel either like a Jedi or like a Stormtrooper.

    The single player campaign is in the same vein – superficially attractive, but hollow. You are introduced to Inferno Squad, a group of elite Imperial commandos who realize that they are the baddies and switch sides to the Rebel Alliance after the Empire starts torching its own worlds for no sensible reason but the evulz. The characters show some resistance to just up and switching teams, but it is very obvious where it is going, and the whole thing is really a setup to stick you into a bunch of pretty environments (which have nice visual variety), as well as let you play as Luke, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Lando Calrissian, and even the latest not Darth Vader knockoff from the Disney sequels. Unfortunately, while all of this happens, it is not really all that satisfying; the missions are all quite visually varied, but in the end you’re just mowing down basically the same people in almost every mission, with the enemies just model swapped between them. There’s no real difference between Rebel fighters and Imperial Stormtroopers, and a few missions that involve dogfighting in TIE fighters and X-wings help to mix things up a bit, but are at best okay.

    The story is pretty mediocre, and while all of the locations are attractive enough, it basically just feels like a series of arbitrary vignettes, and I never built any connection with the new cast of characters.

    Multiplayer, too, doesn’t feel all that great. There’s a mode where heroes fight against villains, which lets you play with all of the really cool characters, but while this mode is somewhat interesting, it also highlights the general awkwardness of it all. Fighting with lightsabers doesn’t feel immersive at all; the Emperor runs around with his hands stuck out in front of him like some sort of Frakenstein’s monster parody, zapping people with lightning; and characters with ranged weapons feel like second class citizens in that they mostly don’t do anything all that cool, and yet they’re equally competitive with the ostensibly cooler lightsaber-wielding combatants. It isn’t terrible, and there’s some reasonable variety between characters, but it just feels kind of awkward, and it has none of the charm that hero shooters like Overwatch have. Teamwork mostly consists of zerging around the map together as a group rather than interacting meaningfully with your teammates, and while it is okay for a while, it just didn’t hold my attention for very long.

    The assault mode – grand battles involving 40 players – seem like a cool idea, but they didn’t feel great in practice. I really liked the idea of it – you play as an ordinary trooper, but every time you die, you gradually gain score. You get more points for killing people and for playing the objective, and when you gain enough points, you can respawn in as a special trooper using special weapons, or as someone in a spaceship fighting overhead, or someone in a vehicle, or even as one of the heroic characters. All of these are stronger than the base troopers, and can help to swing the battle in your favor – but it also means that the other team can get them and (in theory) cut into your team like a hot knife through butter, though in practice, I found that while they were scary, they were often very beatable even as normal troops if you kept your distance and stuck together with other people.

    Unfortunately, the sheer scale of these battles made it hard to feel like you were making a difference in a lot of cases.

    In the end, Battlefront 2 feels superficial. It has the veneer of Star Wars, but is mechanically unsatisfying.    … Expand

    If you’re here looking for recent, relevant reviews, read this to get an idea before you’re duped by these.

    Game modes combined with the maps are extremely linear, with the maps being straight compact corridors of doom with escort the payload missions, or larger open spaced corridors of doom in this games equivalent of battlefields “rush” game mode. Two objectives, move on, two objectives.

    There is absolutely no feeling of the original battlefront with the captures the flag game modes that allowed for a more organic game mode that could be and flow, making every game feel unique. With the combination of vehicle and ground troop warfare in a larger, more sandbox, game map.

    Infantry classes of assault, heavy, officer and sniper...are totally pointless.
    The only difference is in their abilities and weapon types which easily could have been all packaged into one generic soldier. No there is no engineer who repairs the vehicles (that you barely ever even see on the battlefield), there is no support who can drop ammo, because ammo is infinite! There is no medic or medic droids, because health can just regenerate! It’s a purely superficial thing designed for you to grind each classes star cards out to get you playing longer.

    These on rails, a symmetrical game maps and modes also lend to major imbalances. Where one side is going to win more than likely than the other due to the sheer advantage of choke points/enforcer types their faction offers. For example, the Empire have death troopers as enforcers which are ridiculously more viable than the rebels Wookiee’s. Their high rate of fire and damage output and health tanking can make it nigh on impossible for rebels to pass through choke points on maps like kessle as they can take on four or more guys on their own. Where as a Wookiee can be beaten in a 1v1 if they miss their first shot with their slow RoF bow caster

    Sometimes the monotony of the troop game modes can be broken up with heros vs villains, but after just four games of that you know the score. The teams clash, whoever wins that initial chaotic cluster of a fight pretty much wins the game, as they can now move as a group and continuously gank the one enemy who’s the target, rinse and repeat. While the other team will have been split up by the spawns.

    Star fighter game modes are also spectacularly bare bones. Which just resorts to the same tired tdm or
    Non varied objectives as the ground games...but in space!
    Boarding capital ships and fighting the the hanger bays to sabotage from the inside is gone.

    and thanks to the experience and unfair advantage of the star cards, you will be facing 7 levels of hell to fight that uphill battle of being a competent pilot. As other players will have better guns, health and abilities compared to you.

    It’s the same online missions and objectives over and over and over. After less than a days game time I feel I’ve played everything it has to offer. With not a single game mode standing out to me, they might as well all be tdm in this corridor shooter grenade spam fest.

    Then comes the March making, no server browser or customisation options whatsoever. So you will play the maps that the game decides. Sick of kessel ? Tough luck you’ll be playing it five games in a row.

    This game is not worth buying or playing. It’s novelty and variety tires extremely quickly.    … Expand

It took me 7 hours in easy mode and counting the time I spent repeating some parts of some missions. In my opinionI don't know why this game is so underrated. Maybe for the online game? I don't know.

And ok, some missions are more difficult than others but you can beat it easily the second or third time. The end could be better. If you're fan of this saga, buy it. If not the case you may think in buying a different game. I didn't plan to play this game but I borrowed it from a friend of mine. I only would think to buy it if it was quite cheap.… Expand

    El resurgir esta por llegar pero, cuando lo hará?

    Esta review la estoy haciendo algo mas de un año después de la salida de este titulo por que me parecía que el juego cuando salio aparte de toda la polémica con las loot boxes, el juego no estaba terminado y tenia un futuro muy incierto, no sabíamos si cumplirían con lo del contenido gratuito y mas términos que se les prometieron a los seguidores de esta franquicia.

    En cuanto a la campaña ya sabemos todos lo que ocurrió, es una campaña mas, genérica hasta decir vasta sin ninguna profundidad y una duración que a día de hoy lo único que podemos hacer es reírnos y no llorar.

    El multijugador si es verdad que desde el comienzo de este siempre a sido el apartado mas importante, no ha recibido el contenido suficiente durante este año, debido a que los 3 primeros meses se estuvieron haciendo innumerables de ajustes en lo que es la profundidad del gameplay.

    En lo que respecta a la jugabilidad y a su sistema, se volvió al sistema de clases para las unidades, que en mi opinión es uno de los grandes fallos que tenia el anterior titulo por que este sistema hace que los compañeros se apoyen mas entre ellos y exista una necesidad de cooperación, que si bien casi siempre es nula, se vuelca mas al jugador a completar los diferentes objetivos que hay por partida, y saber que clase es mejor para cada situación o como poder ayudar mas a tu equipo.

    El modo de un solo jugador, en este caso llamado árcade si bien esta recibiendo el contenido que va apareciendo, necesita muchos mas modos de juego como el tan aclamado Conquista Galáctica, y un modo de Héroes contra Villanos contra la IA.

    En cuanto al contenido lanzado este año tenemos la 2º Temporada inspirada en Han Solo y la 3º Temporada que hace nada la hemos tenido con 2 nuevos personajes, Obi-Wan Kenobi y el General Grievous, el mapa de Geonosis, tambien hemos recibido skins de las guerras clon, y mas cambios y ajustes para el online.

    De cara al futuro solo sabemos por ahora lo que tendremos a principios de 2019, que seran dos personajes nuevos, Anakin Skywalker y el Conde Dooku, y por fin el modo conquista con varios añadidos nuevos para que sea aun mas profundo el gameplay.

    No sabemos aun que nos deparara el futuro de este titulo, si recibiremos todo aquello que ansiamos, pero a día de hoy si bien faltan modos de juego y mapas muy importantes de la saga, es un juego que se puede disfrutar, eso si sabiendo que en un futuro nos aguarda mas contenido por llegar, y que este no se quedara en el estado actual.

    En conclusión, un videojuego que ha cambiado radicalmente y para bien, y que al precio que esta a día de hoy, si recomiendo su adquisición para los que no lo hicieron en su día y le tiene cierto aprecio a esta saga.    … Expand

    Dear all. The game is now one year on from release and the huge disappointing boxes and overall game. I like other pre-ordered the game and didn't play it after a few weeks,....... until last week. The amount that the game has improved since those days is unbelievable. Not just additional content (greivious, Kenobi, crait, geonosis, ewok hunt, extraction) but as well as core gameplayDear all. The game is now one year on from release and the huge disappointing boxes and overall game. I like other pre-ordered the game and didn't play it after a few weeks,....... until last week. The amount that the game has improved since those days is unbelievable. Not just additional content (greivious, Kenobi, crait, geonosis, ewok hunt, extraction) but as well as core gameplay changes with the squads system, nerfs on things that were previously OP as well as the game in general being more fun to play. As well as removing loot boxes from the game and unlocking nearly all the heroes in the game for free. THIS GAME IS NOW GOOD, Im glad to say and though there are still improvements too make, Id recommend you get this game for any price under $40/ pounds because the game can only improve with no season pass.… Expand

    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.
