    I don’t like the concept of gamble boxes, especially for single player games, the gaming industry needs to stop that or they will ruin gaming.

    But that being said I think in this game the *perception* by people is worse that reality (not to say there isn’t some bases to their complaints), but the developers have made adjustments to deal with some concerns of the community. Initially
    I don’t like the concept of gamble boxes, especially for single player games, the gaming industry needs to stop that or they will ruin gaming.

    But that being said I think in this game the *perception* by people is worse that reality (not to say there isn’t some bases to their complaints), but the developers have made adjustments to deal with some concerns of the community.

    Initially it may seem you are not making much progress, but you do get a steady amount of crafting points that you can use to unlock abilities (star cards), there are side challenges that will give you rewards and as you open more and more box, they get cheaper since you will get duplicates (that are converted into credits).

    Tip: I would recommend just opening up the hero creates box at first since you can open two for about the same cost of the trooper create. This will give you more crafting parts and a good chance to get a trooper card anyways.

    Graphics/Map 10, Absolutely amazing, the attention to detail to all the vehicles, ships, troops. Some maps are huge and look like they were recreated from actual sets from the movie.
    Sound/Music 10, Great sound effects, when the Heroes spawn you hear their theme sound, they will say lines from the movies, to small things like: droid army funny little sayings, to Boba Fett ship’s bomb sound from the prequel movie.
    Performance 9.5, Playing the standard PS4 the game very very infrequently freezes for a split second, but considering every thing that are happening in the battles with 40 players this game runs extremely smoothly.
    Fun 9, The class system works really well allowing you to play specific roles and builds, you gain battle points that you can use to spawn in as one of large number of reinforcements / heroes. Space combat being skill based is challenging at first but satisfyingly. You do die very easy which can be a little frustrating, specially stating out. For an average skill player it can be difficult to get to play the hero, due to the fact the better players can build up battle points faster and get the hero first.
    Value 10, After playing for over 48 hrs I still haven’t tried every game type, vehicles/ships and hero. About half the heroes are unlock initially (requiring unlocking the rest with ingame credits). This game is a great value, considering that also there is a single player campaign, offline arcade mode and all future content is free.

    EDIT:
    Campaign 7, I finished playing the campaign mode. I enjoyed the visuals and most of the missions, but some missions seem short and lackluster. The story jumps through different periods of time and felt to me disjointed but not overly bad. Likable characters, get to play as some of the iconic heroes. The development of the main character story seems linear. BIG issue with the the campaign is that it is short (for me it was ~6hrs). Also too easy on the recommended difficulty (recommend playing on the TOP difficulty level).

    Pros:
    Amazing graphics.
    May be only 5 game modes, but strike, star fighter assault, and galactic assault are very different on each map. Campaign is interesting and cannon. (it's confirmed that it truly happened unlike other games) Progression is slow but not ridiculous, and the effectiveness of crates is a lot lower. DICE is continuing to listen to the community and will change

    Offline arcade is great, but so far the larger game modes have not been released. (At leapt from what I have seen)
    All of the gameplay changes you have already seen.

    Cons:
    Lootboxes are in progression, not just cosmetics.
    Cosmetics SUCK. THEY ARE 100% TRASH.
    Campaign is short from what I have heard.
    Balancing teams is either nonexistent, or a joke. I haven't been in 1 close game yet.
    Kylo Ren has too many stun abilities, it ruins heros vs villains.
    Minor annoying parts of maps.
    Specialist class starts off pretty weak but becomes balanced later.

    Worth the $60 price and the game will only get bigger.

    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.

    This game has great and in many ways unique multiplayer and unlike the first instalment, it contains a fun singleplayer that does a great job to tie the old trilogy with the new one! Yes, you can buy content, but its NOT pay to win. Boxes are easy to get, and you CANT buy the in-game credits needed to buy heroes with microtransaction. However 3 hours ingame will get you the credits needed for unlocking them due to the ingame reward system for completing challanges. Yes- putting money into the game will allow you to access some items faster, but it doesn't unlock things the way people make it sound. And you cant unlock new primary weapons with cash either.

    All in all i think its a great game, and the idea of free DLC is awesome. Having the community split up with paywalls was a big mistake in battlefront and battlefield 1...!

Oh and you're also at a disadvantage for the people who got the Deluxe edition and had a 3 day head start on you. Did anyone complain about these advantages? No. Hell have a real life and not 6 hours a day to devout to a game, you're at an extreme disadvantage in this game (this is the same for all CoD type games).
    "EA is being predatory with their microtransactions", thats odd, because Battlefront II isn't the game where your loot box opens in front of everyone else in the social hub to invite envy. If you aren't earning at least 2 boxes a night (not including the free daily), you should probably stop playing games. I suck at the game (like killed myself 4 times during a star fighter assault game suck) and i get that many.
    All the twitch online shooter games always give the advantage to the hardcore players who have hours upon hours of the day to play. Microtransactions might help to even that out. I say "might" because its not guaranteed. Hell you have to get to level 20 I think to craft the best cards. So most who are complaining are doing so because they were told to.
    On to the game. Awesome graphics. Its a twitch shooter. Its not a military sim or flight sim. If you're complaining about simplistic control what the heck did you think you were buying? CoD doesn't have you cleaning out your gun or banking bullets off of a wall. There is nothing complex about a twitch shooter. That would be against the entire point.

    Regarding the current outrage, it's totally unfounded. The micro-transactions are limited to the loot boxes that contain at most horizontal progression. If there's any star cards you want you can craft them through gameplay. None of the heroes or highest level star cards can be paid for with real money, and even the second tier of star card upgrades are hidden behind level 10. The stories of someone showing up and dropping $100 for a clear gameplay advantage is just absolutely false and not possible.

    Campaign:
    -Short, but from what I've heard they're releasing a new story every month so that should change
    -Really captures the feeling of Star Wars: with great characters, heart, and humour.
    -Unique and varied missions and objectives, it never gets stale.
    -At times it can feel rushed, missions sort of cascade into each other with no downtime in between but this isn't a huge deal.

    Multiplayer (I've basically only been playing starfighters):
    -Didn't at all feel like I was outmatched at any time, individuals have a chance to turn the tide of battle and make a difference
    -Class system being included is pretty awesome
    -Hero ships are attainable, I get one every other battle on average

    In General:
    -Tons of fun, first Star Wars game in a while to capture the feeling of the franchise
    -Credit cap on Arcade mode is a little ridiculous
    -Contrary to public soapboxing, credits are abundant and easy to earn (mostly through the achievements) but I wish the balance was skewed a little more towards earning credits from matches
    -I wish there were starfighter missions in Arcade mode, or at least available as an option in custom Arcade matches

    First off although the campaign is a bit short taking only 5 hours to complete it is an incredible story that follows Iden Versio between the battle of Endor and the rise of the first order. Each mission is unique and fun to play.

    Multiplayer is a great experience as you will be able to take part in massive ground and space battles across loads of iconic locations in the Star Wars universe.

    A couple of issues i have with the game is that most of the maps and heroes come from the original trilogy. e.g there are 8 ot heroes and 2 heroes each for the Prequels and the sequels. considering that the last game was just the original trilogy i would have liked to have seen a lot more new content. The other issue i have is that considering that the only way to get star cards is through loot crates you are going to need the buy a lot of them to unlock every thing. The problem here is that trooper crates cost 4000 credits and on average you will make about 300 credits in a 11 minute long match. So at the moment you are going to need to put in thousands of hours to unlock all the star cards which is stupid. i hope that in the coming months DICE will fix this issue by increasing the amount of credits you earn per match. Overall Star Wars battlefront 2 is an amazing game with a few minor problems at launch but will hopefully be fixed in the future.

    Loot boxes are not a huge issue for me because you earn enough in game credits to grab a couple of boxes a day at least and the currency between the worst version of a card and the best is VERY small. So ignore the corporate greed and enjoy.

    Now as for the gameplay experience itself, well, it's fantastic. Great graphics, detailed environments, atmospheric sound and adaptable classes make for intense and addictive gameplay every game.

    I'm not a fan of micro-transactions, but I'm happy to see a good quality game without a "Season Pass" these days.

    Despite EA's best efforts to destroy this game with microtransactions, the game play is solid, the single player campaign is fun, and the multiplayer is SO much better than the first battlefront. I have experienced a few frame rate drops on Xbox One, but nothing that caused any major issues.

Kids will enjoy it for what it is: simple, short-lived action that preys on players' love of Star Wars but Battlefront 2 is just too disoriented and boring to enjoy over long periods of time. Rent it, borrow it... don't buy it. P.S. why can't DICE deliver good flight controls in this series when they offer crisp and sensible controls for flight in the Battlefield series!? Expand

Gun-play feels great but I feel like the game is lacking customization and many maps feel very one-sided and certain heroes overpowered. Usually this doesn't bother me too much in games but in this game there a certain heroes who will just steam roll a team single-handedly and there a maps where if your attacking, you probably gonna lose. Other than that this game is still a great multiplayer experience for any Star Wars fan. Expand

    Battlefront II is 5 hours of Campaign, 1 hour of Arcade Battle Scenarios and 5 Multiplayer modes. The whole package however is structured entirely around microtransactions and rewards you with loot boxes upon completion of most tasks. In other words, buy this game cheap or don't buy it at all.

    Pro's
    - Graphics are Beautiful and Vibrant on Ps4 Pro and Frame-rate was solid for me so far.
    - Sound is "AMAZING" it brings the game together on every level.
    - Finally some Offline mode like we requested wen the first one came out. Granted Campaign is not
    the best of the best but Still a great addition and pretty cinematic at that the take from an imperial
    character over the story is interesting and even though the Sequence where we play other hero's
    pale a bit they are still fun and give a small "Training session" on how to use their powers.
    - Online is Solid and well made, being able to exchange points gained in a Match to spawn as a hero
    or a Special unit is gratifying and usually make a difference in the tide of combat which i appreciate

    Con's
    - Micro-transaction yeah they are a bit of a pain, but most the upgrade they give are incremental
    and small, except for Star-fighter those become WOW....
    - Limited Hero selection at first, since we need to unlock them I've been in a Match of Hero's vs
    Villain's where i had to quit because all my hero's were locked or already selected.

    in the end, i'm giving it a 8/10
    i'm Enjoying the Game even with the flaws, i'm happy all the DLC are going to be Free and that i'm saving the Stupid Season pass price, but the most important, i'm just plain having fun.

The progression system is tied to loot boxes which is awful. If you do not believe me then consider that this game started the investigations if loot boxes are gambling controversy in many countries. As sidenote: They asserted those are gambling and should be regulated. A Hawaii representative called the game even an online casino. If you still argue against this just look up how much time you need to unlock everything and / or how costly it is to buy everything. It is a poster child for pay to win. Only as another sidenote: Popular characters are also restricted behind these pay walls and even EA had to react to critizism. Also the story campaign while not awful is a disappointment because we thought and it was made to look like we got the Empires perspective for the main character. There was so much potential in this idea but they wasted this really fast. I still like some ideas, characters and twists however not enough to give a higher rating. Must also say that some twists or story parts are foreseeable from far away but this is not a huge negative. The presentation is superb. The graphics were amazing and deserve praise. I think there were hardly any games that could compete. Overall this could be on many most disappointing games list for the year if not of the decade but the last statement is probably too harsh as the competition is sadly really strong. I give a 1/10 to honor the presentation and dedication. Would the rest of the game be equally good this would be a remarkable classic. Another example how EA works. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Right off the bat I noticed a better and more responsive UI on the title screen and menu screens. Something about Battlefront I just never felt like it was reacting to me or my button clicks. Currently I have only played the Single Player campaign, but based on the Beta Multiplayer looks like more Battlefront.

    As for Single Player I felt the set piece cinematics, actor performances and in game visuals were good. Playing on an original Xbox One, there's probably a better graphical result for in engine cut scenes on PC or when a 4K patch comes out for the Xbox One X. The "First Act" feels stronger and more coherent than the remainder of the game. I am excited to be an Imperial Agent and working on a super secret last will mission of the Emperor. However, in what is the first of many quick switches, that doesn't seem to be what we get to play. We never find out what the Emperor's mission is...or even what becomes of it. Perhaps it will become clear in the story DLC to release in December.

    After a single play through I do feel like i missed something. Certain character motivations and turning points seem to be very on the spot and out of character. Prior to playing I had read the prequel novel associated with the game and it does flesh out character aspects and passions more in depth but does not give credence to the snap decisions many of the hardcore Imperial characters make in the game. It almost feel like there should be a couple extra stand alone scenes depicting inner turmoil for these characters before their antithesis moments. There is also a romantic element that seems to come out of nowhere-even if you read the novel. The one side character you won't have trouble figuring out motivations for is Shriv; your Duros comic relief. Always with a snide comment or sarcastic retort, he lightens the mood and feels very aware of the things I was not picking up on. Shriv steals whatever scene he's in.

    The "ending" is an attempt to tie in to the new film series and is most likely why there is a story DLC slated for December, which is when Episode 8 releases. There is even a scene where Luke takes a "compass" that we have never scene before that is most likely a teaser to Ep. 8. There is also a reference to specifics of the Emperor's plan-first time since starting the game-and it is a little frustrating again because it is obviously apart of the new trilogy plot line.

    I'm sure people will want to know about the "EEEeeeevil" micro-transactions that "bog" down multiplayer. At this moment I have no experience with micro-transactions or multiplayer. I suppose I should note that I purchased the Ultimate Edition-which I guess gives me a **** ton of stuff...My Kylo Ren is already level 10 but I don't know how he got there. I feel the MTX issue has been hyberbole-ed to death. I personally don't plan to spend extra on them-that's a choice that means more than whining, baby crying on the internet or Reddit.

Its all in all very solid game. Now the lootboxes micro-transaction crap is of course disgusting, but even when paying real money is disabled, its a problem after roughly 10 hours of game. First few hours, you will be getting enough cards, basic ones, which creates illusion that it will be all good and progression is fine. Problem comes later on, when you want to acquire or craft better cards. Its brutal how long it takes to upgrade stuff. Feels extremely like a free to play game.
    Another thing is buying heroes. You have to earn game credits to buy the crates or buy heroes. Its very rare you get to play in the game a hero, because you must do realy well. So majority of the time, you are playing as regular class. Because of that you are inclined to buy crates, which give you cards for regular classes, rather than buying new heores, which you have to save up for. As a result of that, you realy dont get to play heroes you want to play as ( Darth Vader for example ). Which is crazy. If you pay $60 for game, you shouldnt be cornered to a position like this. You have to grind 15000 credits ( earning roughly 200 per match ) to buy Vader, which you then get to play very rarely, since as mentioned, its very difficult to actualy play any hero in the game ( takes a lot effort to earn match credits to afford them, match credits and game credits are different thing ).

    Then there small annoying issues like not being able to select what maps you want to play. Only 4 weapons per class, while the obviously best one is the last one you earn and thats after 500 kills with given class.

    These are all basically secondary things ruining otherwise very fun, beautiful game.

    What is one of the most fun parts in the game at the begging is getting to play as all these characters, vehicles in a match by earning the match credits. You get to play all kinds of vehicles you can think of, ride on TaunTauns, BattleDroid, use speeders, X-wings, there is so much stuff. All of them have unique abilities, are fun to use and work much better than in previous Battlefront. But of course it is eventually spoiled with the cards, you will be focusing on when playing the game long term.

    If you have huge craving for Star Wars, i think its worth getting the game, eventho you will have to deal with the terrible progression system. If you were outraged by the controversy over microtransations, i would suggest to not buy the game, not only to support the boycott, but you will also be pretty annoyed later on after the initial magic and spectacle wears off after few hours, because after that you are left with this terrible grind, which leaves bad taste in a mouth, at least in my mouth it does.

On the other hand, it's much better than its previous entry in the series, and the new class based system works well. The map variety is great and it sounds and looks (largely) stunning.

    The good news is like the first game it looks fantastic, both visual and audio effects are spot on. Unfortunately DICE seemed to have forgotten how to make a shooting game in the meantime. Maps are very chokepointy, grenade spam is some of the worst I've seen and the progression system makes no sense at all. It's a shame because the missions look great but it feels like a return to the bad old days of BF4, starfighter and sniper camping by teams spawn points is already a problem and because the objectives are often a single spot, matches degenerate into die, run, die run unless you just fancy ignoring objectives and racking up kills which is often more fun.

    Because of the way star cards work Starfighter mode is the worst of the lot and now microtransactions are turned off be prepared to be blasted by pay to win players for the 40+ hours it'll take you to upgrade your star cards to the right level. The advantages are completely broken, interceptors can have 40% more firepower than the base model for short periods and can turn faster to boot with no penalties for these benefits. i honestly wonder whether they playtested this at all, BF1 had plenty of problems as well but in fixing those DICE seems to have created a whole load of new ones.

    Onto the campaign, for four/ five hours it's obviously not worth the price of the game and likewise the additional modes. In short if you buy it at the moment you'll need to do so on the basis that like BF4, DICE will start to quickly fix these problems but it's a very disappointing experience at the moment.

    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.

    Multiplayer is Great, Heroes vs Villains is amazing, and the rest is just as good, progression so far is easy and quick (in a few hours i got Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker), nothing i felt was OP so i dont get how paying for Lootboxes would have been an advantage over F2P players.

    Arcade is great for offline with Scenarios like the firsts missions in the original 2015 Battlefront but based on more of the eras. custom games are great fun though with only 2 modes, but with loads of options that is basically all you need for offline bots. each are still fun, (needs starfighter assault mode though)

    Graphics wise is some of the best i have seen with the character models that arent human look almost like the real thing from the movies, (maz looks Brilliant and yoda is cute... wait did i just say that) minus some distance objects popping in and out. Audio is the best in any star wars game and listening to Kylo rens lightsaber is just the best thing in the world. each world is masterfully recreated here and nothing can deny that. the ships are well made and modeled as well. the amount of small details in these worlds is great as well from the wild life running/flying around to the floor and sky details. finally making a return from The Forced Unleashed 2, lightsabers are able to cut the floors and walls when you slice them or just move around them.

    i might be a little bias being a star wars fan and even loved the Prequels because i watched them first as a kid (episode 3 my first ever star wars film in the cinemas back in 2005 was a brilliant experience), but that doesnt change the fact this is the best start wars game in A LONG TIME, though i did like The Forced Unleashed II which was great

    The hate for this game is kind of unreal. Trust me, I understand the hate for loot boxes. They are gone now and I HIGHLY doubt they're coming back with them being classified as gambling. The game itself is everything last years plus everything that was missing from it (Space battles, story mode) The game is a great game with some hiccups here and there but definitely worth a buy

    In reviewing this game I truly feel for some of the developers, the hard working programmers, designers and writers at the core of this game who poured their hearts and childhood dreams into what they hoped would be a wonderful homage to Star Wars and it's fans.

Without a strict corporate developmentIn reviewing this game I truly feel for some of the developers, the hard working programmers, designers and writers at the core of this game who poured their hearts and childhood dreams into what they hoped would be a wonderful homage to Star Wars and it's fans. The polish and detail are there, the sights and sounds that only Star Wars encapsulates. Without a strict corporate development timeline I am sure the campaign would have been more fleshed out and involved. That is after all what made the original BF games so fantastic, along with the varied modes of game play which are also missing. Here you have the short 5 hour campaign, arcade mode and multiplayer of course. Which leads to the games greatest flaw, the loot system. Giving players the ability to (foolishly) dump real world cash into improving their character ruins the game. Players resistant to this system will immediately be at a disadvantage. Yes EA has "temporarily" rid the game of this paid system, but for how long? Until the storm dies down and social media finds a new topic. Video games and their industry were once on the fringe, yes profit was involved but there seemed to be a certain unspoken rule when it came to games, such as you knew what to except out of a game and its creators. When you bought a game you bought the finished product, and it was often full of surprise and wonder. Games were made by gamers for gamers and the proof was in the product. Now the dark cloud of corporate greed looms overhead, ever growing and suffocating the industry in order to extract every penny. New titles are often a disappointment, as strict timelines lead to even worse presentations. Barely complete projects sold at full retail price, requiring the players to pour even more money into the game to acquire the finished product is becoming the norm. And eventually this will conclude in an implosion of the industry, with only indie developers remaining once the dust settles as wall street scrambles to sell, sell, sell! Gamers, unlike most consumers, know what they want and have very particular expectations. They will not continue to consume when they know they are being taken advantage of. Gamers after all started this industry and hopefully they will eventually take it back. Expand

My biggest complain with the campaign is the character development, which is often quite rushed. Because of that I never really cared about the character.

    The multiplayer on the other hand is actually quite fun. There are six multiplayer game modes. Galactic Conquest is the biggest and the most fun game mode, with everything the game has to over. That includes hero’s and vehicles. However this game made has some issues with map balance, but over time this seems to be improving. Starfighter Assault is fantastic, the flying mechanics have been changed by quite a lot when compared to the previous installations of this franchise. In Battlefront (2015) I really disliked the flying, but in this game I think it’s really good and really enjoyable. Heroes vs Villains is really fun, getting used to the heroes may take some time, but when you’re used to them this game mode is a blast. The last two are strike and blast, which are quite the standard game modus and they work just fine.

    The progression system in this game isn’t that good, but people are starting to figure out how to work with it. However I do fear that if microtransactions return that the game will be less fun. In general I enjoy playing this game with some friends, however I don’t advise people to pay full price for this game. I’ve bought it with a discount for €30, which is in my opinion a fair price for a new copy of this game.

The story does a good job getting me to care about the characters, however there were moments that felt like they were missing due to how the story constantly shifts between character perspectives and emotions. Iden Of course, the visuals and audio are both stunning, and as a result, Battlefront II feels like a very authentic Star Wars experience. At points, the aesthetics were able to sell moments in which mechanics were very unimpressive, which can only be achieved through some top-notch design. However there were certain moments when even they failed to keep my interest, for example in the beginning of the campaign. In my opinion, this is one of Battlefront II's weakest moments. The first few minutes of a game are some of its most important, and should demonstrate to the player exactly how the rest of the game is going to play out. For example, take a look at how Bloodborne handles its first moments of gameplay. After grabbing basic weapons, the player is immediately forced into a fight against an extremely aggressive enemy. This not only teaches what is important about the game, (the combat), but also teaches the way enemies will fight and how they as the player will have to retaliate if they're going to survive this grueling experience. The first minutes of Battlefront II have the player flying a droid around a ship, which is a mechanic which never resurfaces in later chapters. This lasts for five minutes, after which the player is encouraged to use stealth, which is not a viable strategy in later chapters due to the positioning of enemies. These beginning moments are boring, disconnected, and do a terrible job establishing the rest of the game. The flying mechanics introduced in Chapter 2 are more involved than the first game, however the controls feel slightly clunky which resulted in a few deaths that I thought weren't entirely my fault. The game doesn't demonstrate what it does best until Chapter 3. This chapter and the others like it do a good job putting a unique spin on the mechanics typically used in these games, and as a result there are some moments that are unique to only this game, which fixes one of my biggest complaints about the first Star Wars Battlefront reboot. These sections do get a bit too disconnected at times, Chapter 12 feels extremely out of place, but as a whole they are a very positive addition to the game. Unfortunately, their inclusion means that no mission with Iden stands out in my mind. They weren't technically bad, however they're all very interchangeable, bland, and basic, mostly due to the fact that they're all very linear. There are a few collectibles to pick up along the way, however there are no branching paths to explore, and only a few of the gun battles have an interesting layout. They almost entirely take place on flat ground with cover strewn evenly throughout the arena, as opposed to something like Uncharted 4, which not only had a unique style due to how the hide-and-seek mechanics worked, but also had sections of level that could be grappled, there were slides, and there was some depth to the levels not present in Battlefront II. The abilities somewhat address this issue, but none of them are expanded upon enough or necessary enough to be excusable. The final campaign mission is also interesting because it's interconnected, and is the only stage to actually have a boss during its finale. Admittedly, the boss is very underwhelming and the mechanics are never anything more than the ship combat used in the rest of the game but it was more than I was expecting, which is a sentiment that can be applied to most of this game. It may not be great in any way, however it's enough of an improvement for its existence to be justified in my opinion. The microtransactions are obviously manipulative, and the multiplayer may not be worth playing with them, and the campaign overall felt lackluster and disappointing. So I'm going to give Star Wars Battlefront II a 4 out of 10. Expand

Не поймите меня неправильно,я не говорю,что донат это хорошо,это ужасно,но ставить игре ноль я не могу. Начнём с самого начала.
    Главными проблемами первого батлфронта-это отсутствие контента батл пикапы и отсутствие сингла,но здесь,их полностью убрали,теперь контента стало намного больше,появились батл поинты, которые нужно получить за выполнение задач,появился очень неплохой сингл,который является каноном.Графика по прежнему на высоте,в отличии от какого-то кал ты дьюти,ты не боишься подойти к какой нибудь богомерзкой текстуре,от которой у тебя выльются глаза,такого нету. Ты подходишь к любой текстуре,и знаешь,что от дальнейшего просмотра ты не выколишь себе глаза,таких нету.
    Теперь про самое обсуждаемое о батлфронт 2-донат.Я был крайне удивлен,когда их увидел,в отличии от кс,тут выподают вполне нормальные карты,ну а если тебе не выпадает карта,которая тебе не нравится,ты просто можешь её купить за запчасти. За кристаллы(собственно то,что является валютой),которую ты покупаешь в игре-только для кейсов. К примеру для того, чтобы открыть героя,нужно накопить кредиты,которые нельзя купить с помощью микротранзакций,только через игру. Донат,к счастью,не работают так как все считают,к примеру:
    Тебе выпадает карта Кайло Рена,ты ее используешь,идёшь в галактическую битву,и хочешь её проверить,но для этого,нужно накопить батл поинты, которые открываются только за выполнение задач. Это и был главный посыл этого комментария,донат в батлфронт 2 - не решает! Решает скилл!
    Подведём итоги:
    Игра шикарная,но донат(хоть необязательный),поломал всю игру,но в отличии от других,я не буду ставить этой игре ноль или два,я поставлю столько,сколько она заслуживает,а именно-8.
    Сделав предзаказ на эту игру,я не пожалел. И посоветовав эту игру,у меня не будет чувства,что я кого-то обманул.

    Overall 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.

You complete matches to earn credits and level up your characters and the star card loot boxes are a hindrance in the multiplayer progression. You have to play at least 5 matches, depending on performance, to purchase one of the crates to get star cards for a character. The crates run on a random number generator where you may not get what you want in the crate. Therefore, it limits how the player progression in the multiplayer aspect of the game through the lack of player input. After having spending a good 12 hours with the game, it is definitely a mixed bag. While it is a Star Wars game with great gameplay, it lacks in other aspects. It gets an 5/10. Expand

Végre a birodalommal harcolhattunk (volna), de ehelyett visszatértünk az unalmas átrágott klisékhez, ahelyett hogy nagyobb betekintést nyerhettünk volna az akkori birodalomba, annak lassú széteséséhez (gondolok itt a belső hatalmi harcokra, mert én ezt vártam volna a sztoritól), és újraszületésére valamint az első rend megalakulására. És arról nem is térnék ki hogy a sztori túl rövid ami koránt sem elég a karakterek fejlődésére megismerésére amiben szintén óriási potenciál volt.

    Összességében: Nagyon nagyot csalódtam benne és nagyon elvette a kedvemet ez az egész (és még jön az új star wars ami még jobban elveszi a kedvem).

    EA's Star Wars: Battlefront II is a slight improvement over the last game. I did like that EA added a campaign however the campaign is also just really lazy. The graphics and gameplay are once again great but overall, this game isn't much better than the previous

    There's so much for Star Wars fans to love in this game but then so much to hate as well.

    The gameplay itself is action packed and the visual and audio bring Star Wars to life in the same way as the predecessor. This in itself then is a love/hate beginning. Surely with the passing of years this should look way different to the first iteration. The truth is - although spectacular it isn't really that much of a jump from the first entry to the franchise and that raises questions as to whether this is a worthy full price game.

    Whilst we are on the subject of price let's address the elephant in the room - pay to win. After dropping the micro-transactions that were built into the game it really isn't fair to call it pay to win. However, what is left is a broken progression system that fails to reward tens of hours of play. Instead of working to earn a particular aspect you are working for credits. These are rewarded in woefully small amounts based mainly on time spent in a game. Winning a game gives an almost imperceptible boost to this but it is basically just time spent playing the game that gives credits. These credits can be saved up and then exchanged for loot crates, each of which contains crafting parts. The loot crates contain other basic items but within a few crates these will be duplicates exchanged for another woefully small amount of credits - nowhere near what you spent to open the crate in the first instance. Basically then a loot box is a key to crafting parts. You can expect between 15 and 50 crafting parts per loot crate. You will need thousands upon thousands of these to unlock items and progress in the multiplayer game. The initial EA idea was that this painfully slow progress would encourage you to exchange real money for crystals which can then be used to buy loot boxes which in turn give you crafting parts. Now, in response to a fan revolt and a slap on the hand from Disney they have removed the micro transactions. This means you cannot buy crystals. You cannot accelerate progress and yet you are still left with a game where the slow progress is a design feature to ensure you are bored into parting with real cash. What is left is a broken progression system...no fast track and painfully slow progress with random unlocks. Within a few hours of play every card in a loot box will be a duplicate and what you are grinding for is these crafting parts.

    So, the multiplayer is saddled by a completely broken progression system. What of the single player component to this game. It actually looks good and plays extremely well. That then is the love but as with every aspect of this game there is a hate, even when EA seem to be getting it right they get it wrong. In this case it is the story where fans were promised a trip to the dark side and within just a few short chapters the character has flipped inexplicably. If she doesn't know whether she is coming or going then as a player the same is true and I found myself almost immediately enjoying the gameplay but completely disconnected from the story.

    Can the game be saved? It can, for sure, but unfortunately there is no evidence that EA want to make the necessary developments. Weeks in to the game and the progression system is untouched other than very minor tweaks to credits and crafting parts that make absolutely no significant difference to the painfully slow progress.

    In conclusion then there is a lot to love about this game. Sadly however there are some hateful aspects to the game design that would be more at home in a free mobile game than in a AAA full price console release. Overall, my score of five reflects the fact that I am enjoying the game but don't expect it to have the longevity I expected unless EA really get to work on the ridiculous progression system.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok I hate EA Games all the rest and same thing with the microtransactions so I'd like to review this as what it is now when there is no microtransactions (for now).

    Singleplayer content is nice, but the story is same old bad guy turning good bullsh*t like everyother story. It had so much potential, but obviously they didn't want to do anything really creative with it.
    Inferno Squad looks stunning, but only few missions until Iden turn her coat. Why the hell did they even market this as a story from the view of an loyal imperial when it's far from it??

    Multiplayer has it's ups and down. Maps looks awesome. Details are great, but they are very unbalanced. I have never won't the Kamino starfighter map while playing as CIS (attacker). Never and I have played this game a lot since launch.
    Since the Last Jedi season started I've got to play only two maps. Jakku and Crait on the galactic assault. Not sure if intended or just a bug.
    Progression is wrong in so many levels. It is based on the lootcrates and only thing that actually progresses you favorite class by playing it is your weapon. Weapons need certain amount of kills to be unlocked and everything else progresses by buying starcards and every starcard bought gives you one level which takes whole idea of "class levels".

    If you are a serious Star Wars fan who wan't to play a Star Wars game then go ahead, but if you don't have a huge passion to Star Wars, you should just buy any other shooter game.

    Battlefront 2 contains some stunning scenery and some stupid fun gameplay. Although a few hiccups from the publisher, Battlefront 2 certainly deserves a better rating than .9/10. I think some people don’t realize that they can rate something with a number other than 0 or 10, there are 9 numbers in between!

    Okay I've played this game for a few weeks now and it's time to put it back in the box and back on the shelf with a slight shrug of my shoulders.
    Let me start to explain why I'm disappointed with the game. I loved Battlefront 2015 it was perfect for me. It was a game where I could pick up for 10 mins and play (which for someone who works is ideal) I loved the fact that it looked and felt
    Okay I've played this game for a few weeks now and it's time to put it back in the box and back on the shelf with a slight shrug of my shoulders.
    Let me start to explain why I'm disappointed with the game. I loved Battlefront 2015 it was perfect for me. It was a game where I could pick up for 10 mins and play (which for someone who works is ideal) I loved the fact that it looked and felt Star Warsie. It gave me so many "Whooa this is cool moments". Yes it was fairly shallow, with not enough maps. But Battlefront 2015 was fun to play. And this what gets to the nub of the Battlefront 2's problems it's just not very fun.
    Before I explain why I'll run through some of the good features of the game. Firstly the shooting mechanics have improved. You have guns where you can snipe and it just feels like to are firing a blaster. Sometimes on Battlefront 2015 it felt like it was random when you got into a fire fight whether you won or not. Now if you play poorly and fail to execute headshots quickly you are more likely to be punished and this is how it should be.
    The second big improvement (and this is a big improvement) is with the spaceships combat. In 2015 it was frankly lousy, but now it's much improved. The ships simply fly better the firing mechanism makes sense and the gravity just is good. The game mode is also good with a wide variety of objectives and the maps as well as being beautiful are really well designed. This is my favourite game mode.
    I like the idea of classes for the different troopers. I think it's imperfectly executed but it's a good idea. This just needs tweaking.
    And overall it looks and sounds great and it's a bigger game. The arcade mode has expanded and works well and it has a campaign. The Campaign is okayish. It's short, the story is meh(although the characters are pretty good) and you do spend 10 minutes swatting bugs (WTF!!!) but it introduces you to the multiplayer which is probably what it should do.
    There has been much made of the progression system and loot crates. I don't want to dawdle too long on this much has been said before but encouraging children to gamble is simply morally absurd and game developers need to stop this now.
    However, I'm not convinced many kids will be begging their parents to buy them crystals (when EA decides it can get away with bringing back micro transactions) as mutiplayer simply is not that much fun.
    So on Battlefront 2015 there were four small scale game; Cargo, Drop Zone, Droid Run and Blast. The first three of these were great fun, but guess which one EA have decided to bring back? yep the dull as dishwater blast., The one where all that matters is who has the most power behind you (Pay to win, anyone?). They've also brought in a second small game mode called strike which is just a small scale version of the main large scale game, Galatic Assault. The main problem with Strike is that it's really badly explained, the objectives aren't explained properly and there is little or no excitement.
    I loved the small games on 2015, such as Drop Zone on Dune Sea. It was craziness with action all the time. The same doesn't happen with Blast or Strike. The maps are too large, you often don't see action for minutes at a time and it doesn't seem to matter whether you win or lose.

    Galatic Assault suffers from the same problem as Strike. It's not clear what the objectives are. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE TO FALL BACK - FALL BACK WHERE TO EA??? JUST TELL ME DON'T JUST TELL ME TO FALLBACK AND THEN SAY RETURN TO OBJECTIVE AND KILL ME - THIS ISN'T IRRITATING AT ALL!!! (Rant over)
    But the major problem with Galatic Assault is the Heroes. Basically they've completely ruined Heroes. it was so exciting to pick up a hero token on Battlefront 2015. Now you have to grind to get some of the Heroes. But that's not the major problem, nor is the fact that Heroes have been nerfed and made less fun, it''s all about how you get to use them.
    You have to collect Battlepoints, which you collect by killing people and doing objectives and if you collect several thousand to become a hero (and you only can use one if they are not already in play). The problem of this is twofold, first average players rarely get a chance to be a hero which makes it less fun. Heroes also tend not to take ages to come into he battlefield so the first half of games are often hero free. I've literally only played as a hero on a handful occasions and several times for seconds before the game ended. Why you can't roll over battlepoints to the next game i don't know. But basically Heroes are pants.
    Additionally they have (mainly) taken out jumpacks - why? they were so much fun and meant you could travel to action zones much quicker.
    There is only one large scale game and it isn't as good as the three previous games on 2015. Galatic assault doesn't encourage groups of players piling in on objective in the way supremacy does. It's just Meh! all the way through, like the game generally.

    Really enjoyed the campaign mode, need more games like this with game play and mechanics focused on SP mode. As for multiplayer, after a week I got quickly bored, the unlocking content is confusing , overcomplicated and there is zero effort to promote teamwork, everyone runs like headless chickens.

    A game with high expectations let down by corporate greed, really makes me sad to realize that's what we have come to.

    I wont hate harshly about the online shenanigans as it hopefully will improve over time but also as i bought this game with the hope of a thrilling story and to relive some old memories of the originals through arcade mode, oh how i was disappointed.

    The graphics were lovely and the voice acting felt on par to that of the films, but the rest was somewhat lacking. First there is offline arcade mode, I'm someone who devotes time into single player games and doesn't care much for online. So when i heard that this game had offline game modes i was already dreaming about the large scale maps and different classes, but that was not the case.

    Jumping into arcade mode was less than appealing and game play didn't make up for it, to start there are limited maps and i mean about 5 compared to that of say that of Battlefront 2 (the one from 2005) that had loads of maps to play and all sorts of game modes. so with being generous i gave the Theed palace map ago (bear in mind i had completed the story and the mission on the Theed/Naboo map), but oh was it disappointing, limited and enclosed and nothing to make it feel like a large scale battle, and the other maps followed suit.

    So arcade mode was upsetting, but the story has to be good right, wrong. Lets just say your better off buying a Ps2 and playing the original Battlefront and its sequel rather than dishing out some money form a game that cant even hold a candle to the classics.

    On a final note, its a shame that large money grabbing companies like EA, spend a few months to make a less than half decent game just so they can profit from it, if they spent a couple of years developing this game and support both online and offline players then maybe we would have something that players and fanatics of the franchise can enjoy, but as long as money is the driving force that will only live in memory.

Now campaign the last thing i never did the campaign but seen vids about it i dont want to spoil anything about the story incase anyone wants to play it but the story from what i seen is OK to bad it not worth what i seen i heard it repetitive and the marketing for the campaign was a lie it spoilers to say what it was so i wont say it but the campaign your choice if u want to do it or not. that is all i have to say about this game i gave it a 7 cause me and my brothers play it alot and i think it fun with friends it will never beat the old BF2 but still a fun game has alot problems that depends on the person to ignore or not 7.0 for me i hope this review helps u want to buy the game or not Expand

    (2) The story is rushed as the campaign doesn't last long.
    (3) Fighting as Luke can get out of hand as his movements are kind of all over the place.
    (4) Wish there was a cover system.
    (5) Han Solo looks and sounds kind of weird.
    (6) Non-friendly and friendly AI is dumb. I would literally use a machine gun on one of those big machine walkers and the storm troopers weren't alarmed at all as they just continued patrolling their areas. I was like WTF! Also there was a mission where my friendly ally would literally run right past the storm troopers and the troopers weren't alarmed at all. Another WTF moment.
    (7) the save system sucks
    (8) the ending was lame

    If they do come out with a Battlefront 3, hopefully it is a lot better than this. While this game does have many of its flaws i still liked the game for the most part, but not as much as i wanted to.

    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.
