    This is barely a game. Gets old fast, way too fast. Never have I felt more ashamed to have spent money on something.

But still for 60$ game it’s not worth it at all, not to mention the terrible progression system, and if you wanna have more maps gotta buy the season **** You EA.

    El gameplay es facil y no tiene ninguna clase de profundidad, en general lo unico que te incita a seguir jugando es a desbloquear las skins, porque aparte de esto, las armas y habilidades no existe ninguna cosa mas.

    This Star Wars game was just another money consuming game from EA. You could get all the fun out of it (including DLCs) in about 8 hours. The multiplayer only thing was horrible and the content was lacking. When DLCs came out I was ready to give this game another chance. And then again, they only added a few maps and one new game mode. The heroes were just stupid and you practically have to sprint your **** ass off to get to be them. Even if you are hero, it's probably only the last 2 seconds of the game.

    This game was a massive disappointment on its release. From a lack of everything from single player, to maps, to just overall content, to a rather arcade-y style of combat, this Battlefront was a massive letdown from the originals in the early 2000s.

    The gameplay consisted of your standard shoot the other guy/capture points/blow up things then move on game styles you see in nearly every multiplayer game, with the only major addiction being walker assault that is in all honesty just a reversed version of rush from Battlefield.

    There isn't any single player campaign, and what single player content there is consists of tutorials and boring survival horde mode style games, and point collection. Later a skirmish mode was added, but the lack of something like "Galactic Conquest" is inexcusable.

    The other thing is that the game was just unfinished. It was obviously rushed, and content was also taken out, only to be added as dlc for an extra, at the very least, $50 dollars because of the season pass system that the game has. This lack of maps and variety makes the multiplayer, the thing the entire game is designed around, incredibly boring after only a short time playing it.

    The only praise I can give the game is that it is Beautiful. The Graphics look nearly photo realistic and it feels like you are in the famous locations of star wars. The Sound design is also amazing. But these are minor things in a game.

    Overall, this game is bad. It lacks content, gets boring quickly, and has nothing that will make you comeback to it after a long period of time.

    A largely boring and uninspired multiplayer focused game with nothing much to work for.

    A Star Wars game that feels more Battlefield TM than a Star Wars game, because of a major oversight regarding it's lack of iconic maps that later became DLC.

    Star Wars: Battlefront has to be the biggest disappointment in gaming in a long time.

The original version is one-third of an actual game, and the Star Wars Battlefront: Ultimate Edition is still unacceptable at full price. My biggest issue with this game is its lack of a story-mode. Online never has appealed to me, so the only gaming experiences I am interested in are single-player driven. I honestly wouldn't mind the fact that this game has no story mode had it not taken the classic Battlefront franchise, both of which had excellent single-player campaigns that were intriguing and fun to play through. The fact that EA and DICE thought that a campaign mode was unnecessary really shows far removed this game is from the original two games. The game is unpolished, with a number of animation glitches happening within the first few hours of the game. The heroes, while fun to play as, feel stupidly overpowered while playing with bots, and as a result the biggest thing Star Wars: Battlefront had going for it added thirty minutes of playtime, only ten of which were refreshing. I can guess that the heroes are more fun to play as in the online mode, but I've read that people will just hang back and steal the hero tokens so nobody except a few people will every play as heroes. The other single-player modes are fine, but there is so little substance here that they all feel stale, boring, and repetitive. There's nothing of interest on these linear, barren maps, so no match feels distinct, not to mention the fact that everything in this game is so limited in terms of substance. There are no open-ended systems to use to your advantage, and no clever physics. This game is so limited, and I think that is the root of all the problems here. Yes the aesthetics have been nailed, and everything looks and sounds authentic to the Star Wars universe, but nothing about the gameplay actually reinforces the visuals, and as a result Star Wars: Battlefront lacks any sort of depth or interest. There is so little that appeals to me in Star Wars: Battlefront, that I could not excuse myself for giving this game anything more than a 2 out of 10. Expand

    So there is no story, they are little campaign missions but they are like 10 minutes each and they aren't really interesting. So you are left with the gameplay, which was also disappointing...
    The maps were too big so it's hard to find your friends, the weapons feel the same and when you have a character like Luke or Darth Vader, the gameplay becomes slow and sluggish.
    And the online is boring too, this fanbase is annoying and since the gameplay sucks, the online isn't enjoyable to me..

    It's sad that there isn't much to talk about because there isn't a lot to this game, the little amont of content is laughable, the gameplay is like call of duty so if you enjoy call of duty, maybe you will enjoy this. For me, this game looks incredible and sounds just like star wars but the game itself isn't good.

    Shambles of a game. If this didn't have the Star Wars in the title the servers would have been shut down already. It feels like playing a beta even with the season pass, which is a con for two reasons - it's overpriced for the paltry amount of content within and secondly the only players that use the DLC are the losers that sit on the game all day every day.

    holy lack of content. A single player campaign, a couple more heroes, and maybe having some of that dlc content for free, would have made this game decent. But it's not. Offline this game is useless, and online depends almost entirely on your layout and time spent ranking up. A **** map selection and awful flight controls don't help either.

    ea manages the servers and customer help so bad, they make comcast seem like the golden standard against which all customer service experiences should be like. what's more, i haven't seen a single ea employee respond to an issue on a forum or in cs chat since the game came out. the most that has happened were false promises and blatant disregard for customer satisfaction. 0/10

    This is bad game, It's based on selling dlc guns and has only couple of maps (that suck). Bad game no one should buy ever in no circumstances. Bad bad

    Como juego de disparos falla en balance, matchmaking y caos. Resulta muy frustrante reaparecer y ser liquidado en segundos por un enemigo que casualmente estaba allí, casualidad que puede sucederte unas 20 veces por batalla y te dan ganas de estrellar el dualshock3 contra la pantalla de televisión. Los power-ups no tienen en la mayoría de los casos sentido alguno y están mal pensados.Como juego de disparos falla en balance, matchmaking y caos.

    Como Battlefront...que decir..he jugado a todos los battlefront anteriores, pobre intento de continuar su estela. Era tan fácil continuar donde sus antecesores lo dejaron...¿¿¿SIN CONQUISTA GALÁCTICA??? ¿¿EN SERIO??

    Como juego de Star Wars penoso, personajes como héroes que te preguntas de donde han salido, los héroes en la mayoría de ocasiones mas que una bendición jugar con ellos es un castigo, un juego de Star Wars donde las batallas espaciales son igual o mas caóticas que las terrestres, teniendo los Rouge Squadron para inspirarse...

    Graphics are undeniably good, this is true, and it's fun to be tooling about the Star Wars universe. But there's just no way around it: this game is boring. You've pretty much seen it all after an hour of playing. Beyond that, it's just more of the same. Most expensive 1-hour of gameplay ever!

Not to mention the disgusting 50 dollar season pass which actually contains content. This game represents everything wrong with the gaming industry. Overpriced season passes that contain the actual game, shallow modes, and no effort put in. This game isn't bad objectively, but because of how this game left me feeling I decided to put it this low. If you're looking for a good online game get Overwatch and I'm sure there are plenty of other Star Wars games that are complete. The worst thing is that I gave my hard earned money to EA and am thus supporting cash grabs like this. At least I didn't get the season pass and EA isn't getting my money anytime soon. It's a shame this game uses the Star Wars brand mainly to attract more money. Expand

    How do i start.....well I'm not going to compare this game to the old ones because this game has nothing to do with them its a reboot (if i did it would deserve a much lower score) lets start with the pros. The graphics are simply amazing, super detail to the environment (when you have time to look at it when your not being shot at), the lighting effects from the sky to the guns. The sandHow do i start.....well I'm not going to compare this game to the old ones because this game has nothing to do with them its a reboot (if i did it would deserve a much lower score) lets start with the pros. The graphics are simply amazing, super detail to the environment (when you have time to look at it when your not being shot at), the lighting effects from the sky to the guns. The sand and snow levels were awesome. the storm troopers to the rebels and their vehicles was really good. On to sound now its great, nothing new but standard John Williams. The gun sound effects are beautiful just like the films and the voice acting are pretty good apart from Han solo.
    The cons... well everything else, the gameplay is way too casual and generic at best (point and shoot). No space battles and its called "STAR WARS".There is no strategy behind it and i don,t know why its called battlefront because your not at the front of the battle, there is rarely a battle where both sides collide together in a battlefront, most of the time your on your own shooting people in the back while there shooting others in the back and you get killed the same way too. The respawns are terrible i mean come on, when you die (which happens a lot) you can respawn at the beginning of the map and take like 2 minutes to back up into the fighting area just to get killed again or you could be respawned behind enemy lines where you will either instantly die or shoot loads of them in the back(oh by the way love the snipers, campers and trolls... that takes real skill) . By the way the pick up cards are rubbish especially the vehicle ones, the second you get in a vehicle everyone targets you so you don't get to play with them much, the at-at walker is on rails!, the speeder bike is useless and the flying craft all pretty much feel the same. This should not be called battlefront it should be called star wars arena. there is zero single player campaign which not just me but lots of others wanted. the best you get is the tutorials which last up to an hour and get to see what it would be like to have a single player story and then whack! door slam to the face, there is no more single player unless you count the "battles" they are terrible! its like the multiplayer battles except your with up to 4 a.i (which they are not there dumb) and the maps are tiny i mean its like running around the park with your friends at 8 years old with lasers except that's more fun, just ugh!. the multiplayer maps are shockingly small for a multiplayer based game unless you count the 39.99 pounds season pass (just bike it E.A into the pit of despair from whence you came), this is just stinging the fans if ever i saw it. E.A are evil they give you nice looking games and misleading and false trailers and pretty much every game they make is 54.99 pounds(that's the standard edition! deluxe is 69.99! whereas the ultimate with the season pass is 104.98 pounds!!! just NO!) this has got to be one of the most controversial games ever. so many people love it and i get it its star wars. You first play it and its like cool i'm in a star wars movie but after an hour or 2 it wore off. I've spent about 2 dozen hours playing all the modes and i've had my fill with no need to ever revisit. its practically a bad game or rather just a huge disappointment. i f you gonna buy wait for it to go on offer online (which trust me i've seen it on offer in the psn store about half a dozen times) or buy from your local game store they have tons of them on shelf... i wonder why?. DO NOT buy the season pass or the deluxe edition(because the deluxe edition content you can earn in the game for free apart from 2 exclusive emotes! wow! great deal! and the season pass if you buy it then your saying to dice and E.A here take my money for content that should be in the game upon release) its half a game on release and it will never be a complete game with the dlc. one last thing do not pre order E.A games i and many others have been stung by them before many times. Its going to be hard to resist pre ordering mass effect Andromeda though. thanks for reading my first ever review :-)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Star Wars Battlefront ImageStar Wars: Battlefield... I mean Star Wars: Battlefraud is the latest disappointment from EA and DICE!

    Immerse yourself in the ultimate Star Wars experience where everyone is running around as helmetless Stormtroopers and Shadow Troopers and Scout Troopers are running around on every map!

    The game features a bunch of boring, dull, loud, confusing and repetitive gamemodes to play on! Let's list them all!
    - Fighter Squadron: Surprise! DICE were too lazy to program space battles so they put you in a Star Fighter above the 4 planets of the game! No, no not in space. Above the ground. They should call in Wars: Battlefront because THERE ARE NO STARS!
    - Supremecy: Capture and defend control points
    - Walker Assault: Attack or defend AT-ATs
    - Cargo: Capture an object
    - Droid Run: Capture an object
    - Drop Zone: Capture an object
    - Blast: Just the regular TDM that exist in every multiplayer game ever created
    - Heroes vs Villains: Defeat the Heroes or Villains
    - Hero Hunt: Defeat the Hero or Villain to play as one, as long as you deal the most damage of course
    - Turning Point: I already listed this one, it's called "Supremecy"
    - Extraction: Please buy the $50 Season Pass in order to get access to this gamemode that nobody plays.

    The game also features no offline content, space battles, Galactic Conquest or balanced gameplay!

    This game is a joke. It's so pathetic that a small company in 2005 can do everything better than a huge company in 2016 can. Don't buy this game unless you want to pay $50 more just to get some actual content.

    EDIT: That review was before the Bespin DLC launched. Now the game is even worse. Hell you can't even play the game because the HUD is gone. And if you actually get into a game you'll just die in the first 5 second. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING in the game is unbalanced. Wanna play Heroes vs Villains? Nope, you'll just die in 5 shots by either Greedo, Dengar or random f*cking Stormtroopers spamming Explosive Shot. This has to be one of the worst games I have ever played. Don't f*cking buy this garbage. Don't buy the Season Pass.

    But it's okay for the Season Pass to be $50 because EA won't add microtransactions. OH WAIT! That's f*cking right! Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, Ultimate Edition, $50 Season Pass, 4 DLCs AND microtransactions! This has to be one of the biggest money grabs in history. EA has total control of one of the most beloved francise ever made. And what do they do with it? Create mobile games and pump out yearly unfinished Star Wars games full with microtransactions and paywalls. Because EA doesn't give a damn about Star Wars. They just want money out of it!

    But it's okay that they added microtransactions because they're adding free content! Yay! 3 new maps (1 old) and 2 Hero skins!

    In fact, let's compare SWBF2 to SWBFEA:
    - Number of maps/planets: SWBF2 - 33, SWBFEA - 20
    - Number of players: SWBF2: 32v32 (Larger on PC), SWBFEA - 20v20
    - Space Battles?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - No
    - Moddable?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - No
    - DLC?: SWBF2 - 1 DLCs with 4 new maps and 2 new Heroes $5, SWFEA - 4 DLCs Unknown amount of maps, 8 new Heroes, more weapons, skins and star cards $50
    - Campaign?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - No
    - Galactic Conquest?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - No
    - Instant Action?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - No
    - Infantry Types: SWBF2 - 51 playable infantry types and 19 Heroes, SWBFEA - Loudouts only and only 6 Heroes
    Vehicle Types: 37 controllable vehicles and 15 controllable turrets, SWBFEA - 8 controllable vehicles and 3 controllable turrets
    A.I players?: SWBF2 - Yes, SWBFEA - 1 mode only
    Playable eras: SWBF2 - Original and prequels, SWBFEA - Original
    Release Date: SWBF2 - November 2005, SWBFEA - November 2015

    See how much how much of a joke this game is? SWBF2 has more content and does everything better than SWBFEA.

    The game doesn't even have any f*cking logic. Turrets can hit you behind cover by hitting the ground next to you, although turrets doesn't even have any splash damage! Shotguns deals 50 damage across the map, killing you in 2 shots! Luie can hit you with his lighsaber when you're in the f*cking air! You're probably thinking "It's a Star Wars game, it doesn't need logic". Well, you're the only reason EA is still publishing games. Because people like you defends an unfinished product. You're even defending EA putting the whole game behind a $50 paywall.

    I'm starting to run out of characters here. So don't buy this game. Don't even think about buying it.

The worst part about this game is that their are only a handful of gigantic maps where your presence virtually does not matter. The skill cap seems extremely low; the game actually seems designed to make you die. Obtaining a vehicle can be extremely difficult and they are usually not even worth the effort; obtaining the Jedi position is even harder and due to its rarity is kind of pointless. The lack of a local multiplayer means your forced to die continuously fighting strangers, unlocking guns that all seem to be the same gun with different stats, other than, of course, the gun that you are forced to pay extra money for (meaning if your willing to spend an extra $10 you unlock by far the best gun taking all incentive out of the game). The game is designed for low-skilled level players who enjoy mindless first person shooters. The only good thing about this game is the fact that the graphics are outstanding and the fact that its in the star wars universe. Overall, wouldn't recommend this game to anyone above the ages of 10. Expand

    If you want good customization, buy Uncharted 4, there you can chose from different characters, skins, hats, face wear, taunts, pre-sets outfits. Naughty Dog is also releasing more customization options (100% free). Anyways, back to the Battlefront review.

    The game is also missing:
    Singleplayer
    Galactic Conquest
    Space Battles
    Prequel content
    Content
    Balanced gameplay
    Fun non-repetitive gameplay
    And more!

    I'm not done yet! The Season Pass and DLCs costs WAY to much. Well I guess that's it.

    If you enjoy broken, boring, loud, repetitive, confusing, content lacking, unbalanced EA game, well then this game is for you! If you hate all those things then stay the hell away from this game!

    The old games were built on classes. This created synergy in teams and roles. It also meant an even field with no pay to win. There is pay to win in SWBF reboot. One gun has pretty much to stats in everything, so it is the gun you need to be competitive, and if you want to unlock everything you must get paid DLCs. This is unacceptable for a full price game. There is less content than most F2P games aswell.

    There are no space battles, half of the fun of bf2, but there is lame sky battles that consist of escorting a ship to safety. The controls are dumbed down and it is no where near as fun as trying to destroy the enemies mothership in bf2. No strategy, just chaos.

    Vehicles are few in the ground games. They are also not varied and usually consist of perhaps an X wing, which you get from getting power ups on the map. The old games had many vehicles of all shapes and sizes like AT-AT's, Roller droids and a range of ships. Only two main ships appear for each class in the flying gamemode, and many vehicles are no longer controllable, like AT-AT's. Half of the old games was being in vehicles- do you just hate dun, EA?

    Also, maps are bland, basically open spaces and battles are clusterf*cks, not coherent at all. No where near as well made as the old games and I don't like the look of them as much. They have better graphics, yes, but they are just bland and variants of grey and brown.

    There is no meaningful single player campaign, just a God-awful survival mode. The old games had a fun single player where you played as a soldier rather than the hero and progressed through maps telling the whole star wars story from the front lines, from the prequels to the originals. Also, Galactic Conquest is gone, and instant action.

    Galactic conquest was very fun but the loss of instant action is awful. It allowed friends to team up or oppose each other, and play against relatively good AI in objective games, not a rubbish survival with crap AI. The game is barebones with, and even without DLC.

    The lack of prequel inspired content and very few things from the original movies, there is a lack of things to do and it doesn't feel that Star Wars-y.

    I didn't expect much, EA, but this was the worst game of 2015 and craps on the brand.
    Final score 0/10- hate this terrible game.

But how is it possible that after all these years since they came out that the game has got worse?!

    New developer is the main reason behind this. They have even just said in an interview that the reason a single player campaign wasn't included was to release the game out with the Force Awakens film. That statement pretty much sums up the whole game, extremely rushed. Why?

    Well firstly there's no single player campaign as previously stated. Why is this a bad thing? Well for someone like me who doesn't really get that much chance to play games due to studying and work etc I want to play games for fun, which means doing my own thing and working at my own pace. I don't want to have to play against people who have 2 weeks gametime knowing all the best routes and weapons and tactics, it's just not fun!

    Secondly, there's no Clone Wars at all!! I know some people weren't a fan of the Prequel films which is fair enough, each to their own. But the large majority of them people still want it in the game! The Clone WARS era was a period of time where battles took place on a regular basis so it makes no sense at all why it's not in the game! I for one really liked the Prequels, and I definitely will not be picking up the sequel to EA's battlefront if they do not add this in.

    Thirdly, no space battles! The game is based around STAR Wars and has no map, gamemode or even a single image of space!!! That's absolutely shambolic for a film based around space! Three of the games that came out previously years and years ago had space battles! Even ground to space battles in the PSP version! How can they not have this in the game??

    I could keep going on forever and ever as there are so many reasons as to why this is such a poor game like the fact that pre-DLC release there were 4 planets....4 PLANETS!!! Where the game is based on a film with space travel!! In the originals alone we had Tatooine, Yavin 4, Bespin, Dagobah, Endor, Hoth, we can even have Alderaan, I'm sure the developers could have some imagination, the Death Star and I can't think of any others off the top of my head. But it's just poor.

    I will not be buying the next game in the franchise unless they include Clone Wars content and some sort of Single Player aspect which is better than the stuff they have there at the moment, not too much to ask for considering the original battefront games 10 years ago could manage it.

Strip that away and what's left. A below average sci-fi shooter that is weighted heavily towards the online multiplayer and offers next to nothing for the casual, single player market. I won't say this is poor value for money as that is a subjective matter for each individual. There is about one to two hour's play offline before the repetition kicks in. Online the game appears to offer no depth for the experienced FPS player and the chaotic nature, possibly as a result of the simplified controls and aiming, makes for a very short and annoying experience for the casual gamer. It's not long before the novelty of the stunning graphics wear off and I am left with the harsh reality and realisation that I bought this game because it's Star Wars and not because it's a good game...It's not a good game... It's really not a very good game at all... My advice, if the lure of Star Wars is too much then buy a physical copy, you may want to trade it in. Expand

    The graphics are great, but sadly there is no story and the game is only fun to play when on multiplayer (but even then it gets boring). As a fan of Star Wars, I was massively disappointed with this game. I can't believe I wasted my money on it...

    +Graphics/animation are good.
    +Hero battles are cool.

    -All weapons feel the same with slightly different damage and range.
    -Card system for special weapons is confusing and never seems to work. Sucks even more because most of the abilities you can get are pretty cool. I always seem to place down a turret or force field when I don't want to.
    -Not a fan of grenade recharge. Why can't it just be like Halo 3 where you carry two grenades and get more from around the map.
    -Very slim pickings of games both on and offline games. Offline missions are extremely repetitive.
    -No vehicles in normal game-play, all are in separate modes so far as I could tell. Doesn't feel like old battlefront. (Half the fun of old battlefront was getting into a tank and racking up an absurd amount of kills.)
    -Long load times, lag.
    -No ship-ship battles.

    I bought a game, not a star wars artbook that I could walk around in.

What you get extended training in various guises at easy medium and hard. Multiplayer, reminds me of being eight again running around the playground making pew pew noises, it’s woefully chaotic and stupid. Constantly respawn in stupid places only to be gunned down instantly and the generally the battles are as chaotic as four year olds role play. Expand

For starters, there's no campaign mode of any kind. What single player content there is, is nothing more than either horde mode, training, or lackluster bot battles. And online play is just as lackluster, if not downright tedious at the best of times. Unlocks are a joke, and the only worth while cosmetic customizations are only available at max rank, so you have to grind for days just to look a little better than your peers. But that has a drawback because being the only shadow trooper on hoth or tatooine will make you stand out, and look like a nice and juicy target. The only people giving this game anything above a 5 are "professional" critics who were paid to give it a good review, or diehard star wars fans who think that just because it has the words Star Wars on the box, that makes it good. EA can do so much better than this. Do not waste a single penny on this game. If a friend gives it to you, go ahead and play it, but you'll quickly give it back. Expand

    I am a really big Star Wars fan and always have been. That being said, I'm not a big fan of this game. Cons: The game just doesn't play like it should.

That being said, I'm not a big fan of this game. Cons: The game just doesn't play like it should. Whether it be the inability to scale a rock that is smaller than your shoe or the total lack of response from weapons. On top of these smaller factors are the much larger factors such as the price tag in total ($110 for game and season pass), the awful updates that try to "fix" what wasn't broken in the game to make it a level playing field, and that major lack of content. Battlefront 1 and 2 were jam packed full of content with multiplayer, galactic conquest, and CAMPAIGN (which for some reason isn't important anymore). First, this up in prices isn't just for Star Wars Battlefront, but still. I don't want to pay 60-70$ for a game only to have the DLC season pass (all of the items that were originally on there that were just held back) come out shortly after for another $50. Had it been 20$ it may not have been as big of an ordeal. Secondly, these updates really need to quit trying to level the game out. There is no point in allowing level progression if you're going to nerf all of the stronger weapons and buff all of the weaker ones, just make a linear game with one a full-auto, semi-auto, and burst gun at that point. Lastly, the biggest surprise to me was the upsetting fact that EA felt in their hearts (assuming they have them) that campaign is for chumps and Star Wars (a franchise known for its stories) didn't need an actual campaign to appeal to gamers. That is about as smart as reading instructions telling you to not put your hand in a blender and then putting it in there anyway and slamming down the pulse button. These lackluster, repetitive "missions" are a joke, its just training AI with buffed reaction time. If EA makes a sequel to this game (which I really hope they do and do it right) then there needs to be a campaign, better weapons/ versatility, and perhaps a lower price tag (ha). Oh, and if you're going to charge $110 for a star wars game, the gamers should at least get every single Star Wars and not just the OT (even if you hate the prequels).

    Pros: The real reason this game gets a 4 and not a 1 is because of my love of Star Wars, but still there are some good factors about the game too. The switch between FPS and TPS is an amazing addition, the graphics are phenomenal, and the maps are pretty fun despite being so few. FPS are my favorite game type, but Battlefront is the first TPS I've played in a while that I actually prefer instead the other view. Sure there are strategic values to using third-person over first, but it just feels better and almost like you're watching a star wars movie in third-person. In the latest update, the graphics were improved slightly again, and they look outstanding. You can see the glimmer of sun rays off of armor, dents in vehicles, and each separate bolt of lightning bolting at you. Lastly, the maps are great and nicely organized (except those pitiful spawn points) which I would probably bet that was DICE's work and not EA as DICE does a great job creating beautiful and massive maps. The downside to the maps, though, is that there are so few (9 original, 2 free so far, and "4" dlc).

    Overall, I would buy this game just to have a Star Wars game to play every now and again. For now, I'll continue playing Batman and Warframe until No Man's Sky comes out.

Not here, it's a just a chaotic shooter with Star wars sounds. We played the open beta thinking this was a taste of a much larger game. No, that was it. We all paid A grade price for one third of a game. The weapons are not configurable, you cannot form squads. There is nothing to do with space in this edition of Battlefront. DICE even invested time in creating a "diorama" feature to demonstrate skill but grants you nothing but a 3d model to look at. No perks, no benefits, no new weapons upon achieving said mastery. You can play as a hero, which is extremely over-weighted in the game, and have seen players get 96-0 K/D which doesn't sound like balanced game play to me. All the guns shoot very similar and in most cases can behave like sniper rifles but with different damage ratings at longer ranges. What's most offensive is that EA expect you to pay for a season pass that is the same price of a whole new game and all we get are duplicated maps, and no new mechanics. We got 17 maps in 2005 and a good range of vehicles. Finally the vehicles are pretty limited for rebels, and the empire has the classic AT-ST and AT-AT walkers. The rebels get speeder bikes which by the way are virtually un-usable except for straight line transport. EA really botched it. Ironically the companies who have nothing to do with Star Wars made a game that was nothing short of an insult to Battlefront fans. Had EA properly consulted with LucasArts and built Battlefront with the players in mind (and not just profits) they could have produced a game that would have eclipsed them all.

Battlefield 4's trailer includes your team charging in and jumping off a collapsing building, but the game itself isn't that impressive.If you don't have PlayStation Plus, you might as well as not buy this because PS Plus is required to play this. Without multiplayer, which is the reason why you should play it, you're only limited to THREE choices: Tutorial, Battles, and Survival, while you have over 15 maps of a maximum of 40 people in multiplayer. If you want a game with a campaign, I do NOT recommend it because it doesn't have one! EA is charging so much! If it wasn't for its immersive and beautiful graphics, I would rate this game a 2. My advice is that you get it on sale or on a bundle with the PS4 at Fry's Electronics because you can buy the Star Wars Battlefront game included with a PS4 bundle for about $250 if it is on sale.

    6) The original Battlefronts Battles were awesome! The lack of AI, Vehicles, and missions are a huge let down.
    7) Heroes absolutely dominate and make playing frustrating.
    8) If you pre-ordered, you got a poster and paid $60. Had you waited 2 weeks, it would have only been $40. Oh that was only for 1/2 the game. You were required to spend another $60 for the DLC. Which the DLC has been pretty pathetic.

    Overall conclusion: Don't waste your money. Friendly tip, get a free month of GameFly and try it out. You will be bored of it within the free trial period.

    Negatives (which there are many), limited maps, very limited characters, limited game modes, Season Pass (that costs as much as the game itself) that does not tell you what you will actually be getting!

    The controls of the fighters are terrible and not having any space battles in a star wars battlefront game is practically sacrilege!

    Its these types of business practices that earn EA a ton of money but also the scorn and hate of every gamer.

    I get that EA needed to get Battlefront out of the door in time for the the force awaken's but releasing a game in such a limited state only hurts the franchise as a whole but we all know that EA will have made a solid chunk of cash from all the kids wanting to play a Star Wars game after seeing the movie.

    Yea this isnt that, not even close. and if i had got this while it was half price i would of most likely punished myself in some of the most creatives ways.... this i wont go into, but to give you a lowdown of the pros and cons.

    Pros.
    Its Star Wars... pretty self explanatory really
    A lot of game modes - ranges from normal TDM to objective based modes.
    Hero feature is fun, although i cant help think this will role into a "pay for different heroes" in the future.
    Has the base Battlefield feel to maneuvering weapon selection.

    Cons.

    No VOIP or anyway to communicate to your team other then pointless emotes. when your playing with anohter 19 players you want to be able to call that absolute crank on your team..well an absolute crank! very frustrating.
    If you are lucky enough to have a friend, dont get to happy about the partner system because halfway through the round battlefront will decide your partner, the only other person in you PSN party isn't sufficient, at which point it will give you some random partner, who due to Con 1 you cant communicate with.
    Fighter Squadron - what an idea, Tie Fighters Vs X Wings.....sounds cool right? it is, if your the x WIng or A Wing, this mode is ridiculously imbalanced, and i dont use ridiculously lightly, if your losing games as the rebels you probally shouldnt be playing games full stop.
    Appearance-- Well, if your a rebel and your playing in the Endor map, worry not your pretty much invisible, vice versa if your imperial on a snow map, blend right into well everything.
    Latency - Well i have had 0 issues with any other game online, including The Diversion Beta - worked fine, Battlefront thoo.. Jesus server are a joke!
    Download v Disc - i have the game installed directly to the PS4 hard drive, my friend was silly enough to buy it full price as a disc, turns out if you spent the extra £30.00 on the disc your game loads twice as fast, with baffles me.

    All in all its a broken game, the audacity that they are already pushing expansions on a product they rushed out to coincide with the mass marketing of The Force Awakens. such a shame.

    If you took away the Star Wars setting, the nostalgia, the music you have a very generic shooter. I played this game far too long hoping I was missing something but this really is a crummy game.

    Cons:
    - Hitboxes, they are HORRIBLE, you will be behind cover, not an inch of you poking out, yet a blaster bolt kills you by flying half a foot away from you
    - Heroes/Villans, they are extremely unbalanced, Rebs get two with Blasters that that can just strike from afar, the only good Villain is Boba Fett, but most people suck as him, they act like a regular Stormtrooper with him (in this game you gotta use him as a SNiper to be effective). Oh sure, Palpatine can heal other Villains...... but only *30* Health while Leia heals herself and heroes to *100*. Then you have Luke running around dodging blasters while Vader is tanking, but when he gets constantly hit, it drains his health, killing him.
    - Loadouts
    - Blasters, horribly, HORRIBLY, designed, and they get worse with every update, you get two Machinegun like blasters (forgot what that kind of blaster is called) almost when you start out, so you have level 5 people mowing you down in a hallway due to spray and pray, the EE-3 for regs is a POS, but the DL-44.... OP, OP, OP, I catch people SNIPING with it EFFECTIVELY! A Sniper Pistol! Then in CQC, two shots you die, literally, the first shots takes away 50 health, unless it;s upper torso, then 75, and head = dead unlike EVERY other weapon except the shotty.
    - Star Cards, horrible idea to begin with
    - No real Sniping (Star Cards Half-A** it)
    - Blast Radius, you see this tiny little explosion, yet you die from it being 15 yards away like it landed at your feet wtf
    - Dog Fights, unbalanced, Rebs have better tech then the Imps (lore-breaking)
    - Walker Assualt, HAHAHAHAHAHA Good Luck winning as the Empire, it's easy for the Rebs to win on the first two Stations since they just keep getting more and more Y-Wings as they hold them, the Imps have to take BOTH to get rid of the Y-Wings, one isn't good enough, plus the Rebs can attack the AT-ATs on their own when the attack commences, including with Starfighter pickups and Snowspeeders with tow-cables
    - Endor, I get it, it's famous, but the Rebels get camo where they can blend in almost 100% fine, while the Empire sticks out like a yellow pimple on the tip of your nose
    - Matchmaking is Horrible, worse than most Battlefield games (and I LOVE those games)
    - Team mates seem to have missing brain cells half the time, all they do is Rush head on, sometimes not even firing
    - Spawns are Horrid, there are about two or three spots on each map your team can spawn at, so it's easy to get Spawn Trapped
    - DeSync, De-synchronization, basically the worst lag, in some games it will always kill you, just play or watch ARMA, this happens a lot in this game, even if you have perfect Internet Connection
    - Can get stuck trying to run across a Small rock and can't mantle over even simple objects
    - Many, MANY more....

    Pros:
    - Star Wars
    - It's Canon and Says Boba Lives

    Good game, but how do you expect me to give this game anything since it's a WORSE remake of Star Wars Battlefront two with no prequels and terrible pricing I cannot rate this game very high.

    Such a disappointment I absoloutley loved Battlefront 1 and 2 and I was depressed when I found out everything good about those games was not going to be in the game, and was more than likely going to be in the season pass, thanks for ruining a beloved franchise EA.

    I had a great deception with this one. No story mode is a big fail for a star wars game. Just the same mistake as Titan Fall. This game unfortunately is not worth of my money.

    Air battles and walker assault has about 2 hours between the both of them in terms of game play. I was the idiot who bought it on the Psn that included the dlc season pass. One of which supposedly isn't coming out until 2017... There is so little content in this game. Spending so much money on the game I ranked up to level 50 today with a help of a friend over a couple months becauseAir battles and walker assault has about 2 hours between the both of them in terms of game play.

Spending so much money on the game I ranked up to level 50 today with a help of a friend over a couple months because there's no way I could put that much time into 2 hours of game play and the only cool skins are unlocked all at once at level 45 then 50 (there isn't a thing in the game where they didn't put half the effort into it). I'm probably not even going to play the DLC because there's no way they are going to put effort in this if they didn't on the actual game. Calling the season pass a "season pass" and saying it will come out soon is misleading and saying that the game is "battlefront" is misleading. The game mechanics are ridiculous too, ex.. when your in 3rd person mode you'll find yourself crouched next to a wall and will hit the wall when shooting instead of it shooting from your Reticle, spending 2 minutes trying to find "the right angled slope" to put a turret down when there's no indicator, trying to walk up a slope and being unable to and then walking up the same angled slope next to it... etc etc 3 pages later. I actually take the time and effort to see if something is an EA product now because it feels so much like a scam. The graphics are great and it has 2 hours of game play but the fact that they mislead so much using the game name "battlefront" and have no elements of it in the game, not even conquest gives this rating an auto 0. :( Expand

    Battlefront is like when you see a fast food advertisement. The burger on the commercial looks absolutely outstanding, every ingredient looks perfect. But when you actually buy one, it resembles the nasty patty from Spongebob.

    Imagine that somebody took a FPS, stripped it down to the most basic elements and gameplay, slapped a Star Wars skin on it and released it at $60. It feels like

    Seriously. What the hell? The critic score is 7+? Don't trust them. They are lying. You have to be honest! Where is the honesty? They have obviously received money from EA to write a good review for SWBF3. But no, they are not having that. See below.

    1. No campaign/story mode/Galactic conquests. SWBF1 and 2 have it. It's not great, but it's there. 2. Lacking in Single Player content.

    1. No campaign/story mode/Galactic conquests. SWBF1 and 2 have it. It's not great, but it's there.

    2. Lacking in Single Player content. Not much you can do with Single player. Repetitive. You don't even have the 40+ AI big battles like you do with the previous games.

    3. Only 5 planets(maps). Really? Even SWBF 1 has 15+

    4. No prequels. It's fun to play as clonetroopers/battledroids. Of course, maps too.

    5. No classes. In SWBF1, you can play as scout troop, rebel pilot... Here, just infantry.

    6. No vehicles. Seriouly. What? Unless you play specific modes, otherwise, the regular battle is just on foot. Even SWBF1, you can hop on ATSTs, X-wings, speeders... in just regular maps! And no Tauntauns in Hoth?

    7. Less heroes. Only 6? 10+ heroes in SWBF2. The controls are better too.

    8. No 3rd army. In SWBF1, you have Ewoks, Gungans, Wookies, Jawas, Sandpeople... Even Rancor!

    9. No 40+ AI game modes.

    10. No Command posts. I think that's just a good game mode, should have included it.

    11. The higher ground. You will be begging for the jetpack to recharge constantly. You jump, you fall back down. So bloody annoying. Then, you wait for probably 30 seconds before you can try again.

    12. My matching sucks **** The server is dead, only 5% for the Jakku map? Only 20% for the regular battles. I want to play a full room with 40+ players. My experience anyway.

    Not to mention, overly overpriced. I mean, come on... Is that all you can offer. Here are the good sides though.

    1. Awesome graphics. 10/10. Spectacular. Amazing.

    2. Great sound effects. The voice acting is a bit weird. Han Solo says Things I can do for that princess. So cheesy... Damn.

    3. Air battles are cool, but no space battles. I think the targeting system is a splendid idea, but the controls are not as great.

    4. Multiplayers are good. Walker Assault mode, Supremacy mode... Why not have them in the Single Player?

    5. Sweet cutscenes. But what happened to the story????

    All I can think of. So how can it possibly get 7+? Either because you are not honest! Or you have not played the previous games. Play them and then you will realised how lazy this one is.

    I mean if you want to be lazy, you might as well just re-skin SWBF2, so at least we get the great gameplay with better graphics. Simple as that. Then add the Ep 7 stuff as DLC.

    It's not the most complex shooter, but it's the ideal pick-up-and-play experience for Star Wars fans. Stunning environments, solid shooting and immersive sound design mask the shortcomings. [Jan 2016, p.82]

    With the new film of the space opera saga finally on the big screen and the release of Battlefront's new sequel, both after a decade overdue, it is definitely the best time to be a Star Wars fan. The game itself is a dream-come-true for fans, and the Star Wars spectacle is strong in this one. However, if it is depth and longevity you seek... this is not the game you are looking for.

    Spectacular production values help to make this game enjoyable in the early going, but it soon enough shows that it is painfully lacking in terms of maps and depth in its current form. [Issue#265, p.72]
