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

    The gunplay and graphics are great. That is it for compliments honestly. Map variety is terrible. No campaign. Hardly any game modes. Not enough good content as well. Unfinished game

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.    … Expand

    NO VALE LA PENA ni regalado, yo al pagar esa cantidad tuve que jugar, inverti mas de 80 horas en este titulo, y por mas que jugue siempre me quede con ese sabor amargo en la boca, de un timo tremendo.

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.    … Expand

    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.

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.

    If they want to sell their video games, I'm afraid it's a bad idea. The community will tire one day of the abuses of these companies that only want to become rich and their users do not care, it is no longer for fun but for interest.

    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.

    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.
