    This game doesn't have much depth.

    but what the game is, is fun. Even when I'm getting my ass handed to me, I'm still enjoying the chaos.
    i would highly recommend you rent first if you aren't into MP only games.

The gameplay is very smooth, I love the fact that you can switch between third and first person, personally I chose third person but I can play either, third person just allows me to view the entire area much easier. There aren't many guns but there are more than enough, most people hate this game because of the lack of maps, lack of guns, but come on..it's star wars! What more did u expect? This is not a competitive game by any means once again, it is a FUN game though. I seriously could not stop playing it when I got it, played for a good 4 hours straight until I forced myself to stop playing Drop Zone.. anyways, this game is great for casual gamers, it looks beautiful and there are no bugs, at least from what I had played so far. This is the last time I trust reviews for games, these reviews did no justice, people tend to be really picky nowadays, sometimes I feel like they got paid to write a bad review LOL! But Yeah, this game is fun and gets a 9 from me. Get yourself a copy!… Expand

    By far, this game has enough content to compare it with Battlefront II.
    The graphics at it's best, the gameplay as it's best, the servers are great. This game will give you at least 50 hours of gameplay before starts to be boring. People are hating this game because they don't want to afford over $100 on the game + extra content. It's a masterpiece.

    Also people complain about it not having more advanced features that modern shooters often have, but I personally think that it reduces the ridiculous amount of overpowering force an advanced player can bring to bear against someone new to the game. Someone at level 50 can be brought down by a new player if the new player knows what they are doing.

    Some games are imbalanced which is why I gave it a 9, but on the other had I admire the tenacity which the system keeps you with the players you have been playing with through multiple games to bring about a sense of team...    … Expand

I have to say piloting an X-wing and taking out some TIE fighters in a game like this really makes me appreciate the attention to detail that DICE put into this game.

    That being said the fact that it is an EA game, we all know there is a bigger business plan in the works. They have for sure stripped down the original release of this game and it is no mystery they are going to be releasing it in expansion packs. I can say right now this game is still fun to play, it's great to pick up and play a few rounds with your friends but it is lacking in the amount and quality of content at this point.

    After about 2 or 3 expansion pass releases this game should be at a great point, but the fact that we need to wait that long does put a damper on the overall experience. Either way if you love the Star Wars universe this is a great game and even though the Empire (EA) is trying to hold it back and make some more money I think the content that will be released will make it that much better.    … Expand

    So this is my fanboy opinion. If you love StarWars then grab this game. Battlefront of old and even rogue squadron is represented in this package. Yes there's no space, you won't care. Looks like the force awakens trailers. Gun down x wings in the space, watch eWoks flee in terror as you are the emperor running through endor, fight in laser filled battles on hoth... I'm loving it.

    For people that are not die hard Star Wars fans I give it an 7.5. There are certainly other shooters online that offer more. I mean you could just play battlefield or halo... But that is not me. I can't wait for the movies and have waited years for another battlefront. There is still Jakkuu coming and yes like a sucker I will get the expansions along with many other nerds.

    Graphics, sound are all top notch and Star Wars has never looked better. There could be more maps and content but if I can remember correctly I'm always playing the same maps in other shooters and usually only one game mode entertains me. I also don't remember anything like a story in battlefront of old and all I was doing was shooting pixelated AI...    … Expand

    This is what you'll call a "dumb fun" game: there's no complex mechanics and the skill ceiling is not that big.
    However, what is turning off a lot of people is the price. The game has a 50$ season pass, with that money you can buy another AAA game. Luckily for me, the ultimate edition (that is, the base game plus the season pass) costs around 60$ in my country.

The level of content in the game I believe to be good there, is a variety of maps to play around on with more on they way.

    I love this game. Its VERY well balanced, with GREAT freaking combat AND mechanics, but the only REAL kink is the fact that there is only as much guns as Titanfall, but that's not terrible in my opinion, since there isn't a lot of gun variety in the Star Wars series, it makes the game more balanced, and it just makes it more authentic.

Hardcore gamers will find satisfaction in the custom character loadouts and character progression rewards and unlockables.

I recommend this game to any Star Wars fan even non Star Wars fan (if they're out there). Just don't expect this to be tactical military accurate shooter because it's not, it's meant for most everyone to be able to pick up and play, and that's what I love about it.

    First off, this game honestly does not deserve anything less than a 6 out of 10.

The graphics are gorgeous, the game-play is fun, and the atmosphere of this game absorbs you into it and makes you feel apart of the Star Wars universe. There are 10 game-modes now because of the free DLC, and they are all very fun. There are a few single player missions that are fun with friends, and still kind of enjoyable alone. This game was made with Star Wars fans in mind, and only buy this is you are one.
    The game may be lacking in content a little bit, and may become a bit repetitive thanks to the game-modes being to similar to each other, but overall as long as you allow yourself to be absorbed into the atmosphere, then this game will never get old.

    Lets get down to business:

    Graphics- beautiful, and most importantly, looks like star wars. 9/10

    ambiance- this maybe the best part of the game. The sounds and feels of the game are spectacular, and every time you hear the screech of a tie fighter or the zing of a blaster, you feel at home 9/10

    game-play- wickedly fun, for the first few hours. The game-modes are repetitive and annoying at some times, but as long as you take small enough doses of this game you will always finding yourself coming back for more of the beauty and fun and fun of this game. The gun-play is fast and smooth, animations are flawless, and heroes and power-ups add a little more fun into each game-mode, but it still isn't enough at sometimes. 7/10

    maps- Big and beautiful and full of nostalgia and star wars beauty. There may not be to many of them, but they all seem to give me the feels. 8/10

    game-modes- ah, the game-modes. There are now 10 of them, but most of them feel the same. My favorites are probably walker assault and drop-zone, and basically all the rest are variations of those. It is disappointing because EA DICE could have made some really cool game-modes, but of course there is the DLC. Oh wait. its 50 dollars. 6/10

    Customization- The star card system is interesting, but the idea of cards refreshing to be used again is hard to get right. there is a good amount of customizing with star cards, and allows for endless variations of cards. The emotes are cool, and there are many different facial customization to choose from too. Unfortunately, there aren't to many guns to choose from. 8/10

    now for the final verdict. Star Wars battlefront is a good game, but not a great game. it exceeds in big pretty maps, nostalgia, and fun , fast game-play. Sadly, it falls due to repetitive, to similar game-modes and lack of content. Hey, this is the age that developers hold back content and sell it as DLC later, right? (I'm looking at you, Destiny.)

    overall: 7.5/10    … Expand

    In supremacy, it is absolute madness outdoing the ground war mode of call of duty. Almost everything in this beats call of duty as a first person shooter, maps are huge, vehicles are more useable. Very easy to see that this game is developed by the same guys as battlefield but just fantastic

    No weapons are blatantly more over powered and remarks that it is dominated by those who play a lot more is rubbish, you may get killed a few times and they will pop up top of the leaderboard but there's plenty of chances to get your own back.

    The complaint of the DLC is also ridiculous, I'm not buying it because I don't have too! The game is good enough as it is, the complaint is just people being petty and not playing the game as it should be played, a first person shooter with actual gameplay in mind.

    Perfect for those who love their Star Wars and FPS's, best shooter of 2015 and best shooter of mine for years to come, mind this is very much my opinion and my wantings in a game, very multiplayer based but it's so good and diverse it washes away the lack of single player modes.

    It is not a game for people who are looking for a single-player experience. If that's what you want, then I think you are going to find the offerings a bit thin. There are quite a few single player/co-op missions, but I don't find them all that engrossing.

    The multiplayer is great, though. The maps for Supremacy and Walker Assault are generally really well designed, though Supremacy still needs a little spawn tweaking on certain maps. Fighter Squadron, Drop Zone, and Droid Run are all a blast as well. Blast (team deathmatch) does not interest me in this, or any other, shooter. Unique playmodes like Heroes v. Villains and Hero Hunt are also available and fun, but not quite as engrossing to me.

    It would be a nice, I suppose, if there were more maps for Walker Assault and Supremacy, though the free Jakku DLC will likely add another to each. But I am really pleased with the maps that are available. They are quite large and it will take me a while to really learn them.

    More importantly, I am really pleased with the gameplay, which is some of the most fun I've had in a first-person shooter ever. For me, this game was worth every penny.    … Expand

    With all the game modes game modes there are so many different ways to play. Single player, co-op, multi player.

    I had a ton of fun playing Hero Battles to hone my skills using the 6 heroes currently available (Darth Vader, Emperor, boba fett, Luke Skywalker, Leia & Solo). After having a blast mowing down troops I moved to the multiplayer Hero Hunt which was incredible fun. In this mode there is a single hero and whoever kills him gets to be the next hero, whoever ends up with the most kills wins. It's a fast and fun game mode and it's very exciting to be a hero taking on a bunch of troops.

    Fighter Squadron is a very well done game mode and is one of my favorites. Flying around in a fur ball of fighters with really great explosions going on all around you really put you right in the game.

    Heroes VS Villains is another amazing game mode I feel doesn't get enough credit. 3 VS 3 heroes/villains with troop support. This is the best game mode for facing off the heroes.

    The Endor race is the absolute best I've seen in any Star Wars game.

    A rant about something I have seen in other reviews---
    My favorite complaint is about the lack of recoil on the weapons..... LOLOLOL. People obviously don't understand physics. The reason a weapon has recoil is because it is projecting mass one direction which causes the launch mechanism to absorb the energy created in the opposite direction.

    LASERS DONT HAVE MASS. Well they due I guess technically but not enough to cause a noticeable recoil effect. Any movement of a laser based weapon would be caused by the internal mechanism that create the laser itself. It could vibrate, be unstable in some ways but there would be no recoil... whats next are people going to complain that flashlights don't have recoil?? anyways rant over. -----

    Recommendation- If you like Star Wars and want a fun game, buy it.

    There are only two cons that I really have with the game. The first is of course the DLC policy of EA. The second is the real lack of customization within the game. There are a decent amount of weapons and star cards but there could always be more. It would be really nice to have some modable weapons like a different scope or slightly better damage for less accuracy type of thing.

    The real problem with the customization is with the player appearance. It would have been nice to be able to unlock say, a scout troopers helmet and stick it on a snow trooper's armor. Really, I would have been really happy with the ability to put markings and paint on the stormtrooper's armor and to switch up what your rebel is wearing a little. All you can do is change the face of the person which is a real shame.

    In the end this really is a good game. It is balanced and bug free which is rare to say of many AAA games coming out these days. The graphics are amazing, even on a console, and the gameplay is solid.

    Battlefront is a near perfect game, except for 2 major flaws.

    2. Players die too easily. There is much to be said for a quick-paced shooter, but Battlefront honestly pushes the limit to a point where it can be a real bummer to play sometimes. As my girlfriend says "I shoot them 4 times, then they shoot me once and I die!". Sure, foot shots aren't the most powerful, but something needs to be done to allow casual games to get more out of multiplayer.

    Other than those two things, the game is beautiful, well thought-out and fun. Fun is really what it's all about and I think too many jaded reviewers didn't actually play much more than 10 hours before they said "It loses it's charm after 10 hours." I'm nearing hour 20 and I can't wait to play when I get home. The trick to making the most out of Battlefront is to accept that you will die sometimes (or most of the time).    … Expand

This is the process of offering valid and well-reasoned opinions about the work of others, usually involving both positive and negative comments, in a friendly manner rather than an oppositional one. The purpose of constructive criticism is to improve the outcome. So I think it is sad when I see all the negativity and hate from people.

    The game also has missions which can be played solo. Also, there's promised downloadable content (DLC) which is what got me to buy the game so that it's not just about multiplayer. There will be content after SW episode 6 in the game!!! which for any starwars fan is a 5 star deal!    … Expand

    If they would have packaged the DLC, new maps and modes I think this would have been revived better critically. It's a lot of fun but not a lot of content. I'm having a hard time paying $100 for barely a $60.00 game. In the end I'll cave because who wants to miss out on getting the "whole game".

    I havent reviewed a game for a while but i see a growing trend of people posting user reviews with scores at extreme ends. It seems to become this battle between fanboys and haters but I think underlying it there is this general feeling that gamers expectations are not being meet and we are not finding satisfaction in what we are delivered, or a significant portion of us anyway. So toI havent reviewed a game for a while but i see a growing trend of people posting user reviews with scores at extreme ends. It seems to become this battle between fanboys and haters but I think underlying it there is this general feeling that gamers expectations are not being meet and we are not finding satisfaction in what we are delivered, or a significant portion of us anyway. So to make the point those who are feedup frustrated and disappointed vent with a zero review. Understandable but it becomes a bit of a mess of zeros and 10s basically offsetting for an overall of 5. In my view this game and others affected by this are not a 5.

    For me this game is about an 8.5 but I do agree it could have been alot better in terms of value for money in the content we received. There should have been a campaign for one. The little training missions were really cool. Surely they could have expanded this into a fully fledged epic starwars campaign. It is also clear the game was chopped up to sell the season pass. Is this a trend that we will accept. Its clear we are unhappy about it but its probably neccessary for it to be financially viable. Im not sure its simply motivated by greed but maybe it is. Destiny showed us how successful that can be but when it comes at the cost of sacrificing the overall quality of the game developers need to be careful as theres only so much gamers will accept. Perceived value to gamers is important. We do not want to feel like we are paying fullprice for half the game.

    The game itself I love to play. I like that its been simplified to appeal to starwars fans. Walker assault has been my favourite mp mode. The rush of a team win as the rebels is fantastic. Personally I like the direction they took with this game. If your a casual gamer or a star wars fan or both I unreservedly recommend this game. Do not be put off by the negativity. It is a fantastic star wars casual gaming experience. I think thats what they were going for and they certainly delivered it but its upset those that wanted it like the original battlefronts.

    The thing i do agree on is it needs a campaign to give it more content. The season pass im divided on cause I think its just the reality the gaming industry faces to meet rising costs. Am I happy about it? no but I do understand why they are doing it as trying to sell the full game at game plus season price cost would be less acceptable to gamers. Personally I would prefer to be getting the full game at a higher price. I hate dlc as much as the next gamer and usually do not buy it as i know i can not resell it.    … Expand

Fighter Squadron stands on its own and is a fantastic flight simulator game mode that creates amazing air battles...oh yeah, with Tie Fighters and X-Wings!!
    Supremacy is a ton of fun, a tug of war Rush type game with the ability to take and re-take control points. Very fluid game style and unlike any I've played before. Blast (TDM), Drop Zone and anyone who played the beta is familiar with Walker assault. Although Walker assault on Endor is ridiculously fun.
    Any Star Wars fan will love this game, the musical score is immersive and you feel like you are in the SW universe. The Maps are incredibly detailed and wide open. Speeder bikes on Endor, AT-ST's, AT-ATs, A-Wings, Slave 1, the list goes on.
    I don't understand the lack of content gripe either, so many game modes, and while there may be only 4 planets the maps on each planet cover a wide area. Destiny only launched with 4 planets and all of their game modes occurred on the same section of that map.

I'm sorry but no. Star Wars Battlefront is not unbalanced at all, the only reason why it may seem that way sometimes is in walker assault when you're in a group with a bunch of people who don't know what a **** objective is. I've played every game mode, and I can safely say that Walker Assault is NOT unbalanced. It is probably one of the best game modes.

    For a good reason people want a campaign, yeh I get it, a campaign would be awesome but overall the multiplayer is what I play battlefront for. I know this may sound like I'm being biased towards one side of an argument... well yes I am, I am one person, I have one opinion because I am one person. I know it would be great if I could be multiple people and see things from every aspect, but I don't.... Let me put it like this.. It's my opinion, not factual.

    People are constantly giving Fighter Squadron a hard time saying it's terrible... From what I've seen in gameplay, a lot of people don't know you can hold down LT (Left Trigger) and it helps you aim.. Seriously a lot of people aren't picking this up. Fighter Squadron, for me personally, is my favourite part of the game. I love the space battles as they look and feel so much like star wars, (in third person) while fighting in an x-wing over tatooine and destroying a tie fighter, I felt like I was in Star Wars episode 7. That shot where the X-Wing destroys the Tie-Fighter in that trailer, looks so much like this game. I love it.

    Overall I love the combat, an area i felt kind of lacking was the heroes and villains. They're fun to be sometimes but there are some modes I wont be playing, e.g. hero hunt and Heroes VS Villains, I don't really enjoy being a hero fighting villains, I would rather just be a hero slashing up other people, that's why I detract from Heroes VS Villains and I don't like Hero Hunt as I become a hero/villain so much it gets kind of boring. However I really like the other game modes, the ones I play most of are: Supremacy, Blast, Walker Assault, Cargo and Fighter Squadron, as they are the ones I really like. The other 2, Droid Run and Drop Zone, are okay I guess, not my favourite but still pretty good.

    Overall Battlefront is fantastic, sure there are a few things i dislike, the fact that there's a few weak game modes, I would like a story mode, despite the reason I don't play it for battlefront and I dislike the season pass BS. overall I think it's a great game, solid fun and I've had a great time on it overall.    … Expand

    It's also worth mentioning that the game works flawlessly. I've played for 12 hours now and only encountered one small display related bug. This is not trivial in this day and age where most of the games hit the shelves half broken or worse...

    There is however one big miss, and that's the lack of content in the base game. With merely 4 maps per multiplayer mode (5 when the free Battle of Jakku DLC drops), playing the same mode for a long time will quickly get old. As as the multiplayer matches don't last very long, one rotation doesn't take that long.

    DLC will make up for that over time, but most of that will be paid DLC. And it's yet to be seen how many players will actually buy this, as the season pass is reported to come with a pricetag of a complete game.
    So the question remains whether with all the DLC content, you'd have full servers to play on...
    This also beg the question how EA/Dice will handle the servers post-DLC. As there are no custom servers, the players will entirely depend on EA or Dice to give them populated servers with a proper map rotation.

    + Fun and addicting
    + Graphics that make any other PS4 title look bad

If you're not a fan of Star Wars and/or do not have online access, this game might not be for you. The game itself will have four expansions coming to it, and one could even say the development of the game is still early. I mean, just look at Destiny (the video game). When it was released, it sold well (because of the marketing) but the game itself was in many people's opinions (including mine) more of a flop. A year later however, more people bought the expansion to the game (than when the game was first released) because the game's developers literally redefined the game, almost improving on every aspect. My hope is that the same will be for Battlefront also. And you can't say Dice did not put effort and hard work into this game. Just by looking at the graphics and listening to the sound effects, you can tell that they loved Star Wars and they loved working with it. I read most of the professional critic reviews and most of the flaws in the game (according to them) were: the story (you can watch the freaking movies, it's STAR WARS for crying out loud), the soundtrack (Uh, they could have not HAD a soundtrack??? Plus, you can just mute it if you don't like it - the sound effects are good enough alone), and pointless game modes that are too similar to Battlefield and other shooters. That statement is highly opinionated and is sad to hear pro critics saying things like this. Besides, did you know that Battlefront started off as a Battlefield mod? Yes, in Battlefield 1942 there was a Star Wars mod and that's where game developers got the idea for Battlefront. If you don't believe me, you can do some research. Yes, a FEW disappointments here and there (soundtrack, modes that are "pointless," and no story), but overall, Battlefront is an amazing game fully deserving of a nine out ten rating an that is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.… Expand

The vast majority of negative reviews, by journalist and gamers, talk about what the game lacks. Now yes, DICE and EA put the Battlefront franchise tag on this game, which is just asking for trouble. But they have also asserted that this game was madeYes, it's an eight. Because a review of a video game should be based on the merits of it...not based on what you wanted it to be. The vast majority of negative reviews, by journalist and gamers, talk about what the game lacks. Now yes, DICE and EA put the Battlefront franchise tag on this game, which is just asking for trouble. But they have also asserted that this game was made predominantly for Star Wars fans. So in trying to please as much as possible both camps, Star Wars fans who may have never played FPS games like COD, Battlefield/Front, Destiny, CS:GO, etc. and those hard core FPS folks who can shoot a pebble off a stormtrooper's helmet @ 100 yds.

    But the game is what it is, so let's address these negatives that have been voiced and I'll dismiss them one by one:

    Lack of variety in terms of characters and weapons and vehicles. This is a silly remark, because it's Star Wars. So, no...there aren't any orcs or bows and arrows or motorcycles or combat knives. In fact, DICE has done a wonderful job pushing the envelope to actually create variety that really isn't in the Star Wars movie library. Yes, the expanded universe has a lot more going on, but about half of the weapons in the game were created from whole cloth by DICE to give just as much variety as possible. So no, you can't say a Halo game is shallow because don't ride a horse in it.

    Next is the lack of a solo campaign. This is a game featuring multiplayer combat, but it's not just that...there is plenty of solo content as well. But again, that's not the focus of the game, that you're playing a one-person Star Wars adventure game. You're complaining about something. So next time you play Tetris, please don't complain about the lack of RPG elements.

    Variety of missions...not counting the training missions there's 21 of them. So be quiet.

    There isn't any content missing here. It is what it is. It's a Star Wars combat game, that is the most faithful, true Star Wars game EVER made. If you're looking for something else, then go play that and give that game a review based on what that type of game is supposed to deliver, but don't give this game RED scores because it's not the game you would have made.

    So why don't I give this more than an 8? Well, there are times the game isn't fun. Being sniped by someone you never saw gets old fast. There are too many power ups that are overpowered, given that you can after a few ranks have your own arsenal with you. Getting plastered by proximity mines and other things over and over makes the combat low on the actual skill side and more on winning the power up lottery. I'd replace a lot of the weapon power ups with recharge pick ups.

    The fighter combat is underdeveloped, giving artificial restraints on when you can do evasive maneuvers or when you can shoot a missile and the range of speed the fighters have is very limited, and doing it in cockpit mode is just suicide, in my opinion. In Walker Assault, air supremacy, especially when you're the Rebels is a big key to winning, and air combat is very hit and miss.

    So there are some parts of what the game actually is that has me frustrated given how it could have been done better, but again, I think when you try to please everyone, well, you know the rest.

    But no...this isn't a poor game that deserves a bad score, it is a labor of love, that yeah...maybe could have used a few more months of work and maybe some more content on release, but it was clearly scheduled to be released prior to holiday gift buying season and before a certain movie comes out on Dec 18.

    So next time, DICE/EA....call the game Star Wars Wars and the Battlefront/COD fanboys won't drive down your metacritic score.

    And for you FPS snobs out there...the dark side leads to suffering, yo.    … Expand

    The ability to switch from first to third person is a breakthrough, if not the small fact that you can actually switch from one shoulder to the other, amazing.

    Generally, multiplayer modes are great fun, I personally enjoy the 12 or 20 players ones, 40 players modes are a bit chaotic, that the impression I got. It is a game that is much more enjoyable played with friends or your PSN clan, because if you go solo and you face a coordinated team, I asure you that you'll suffer a lot! And seeing that your team does not focus on the objectives doesn't help at all, and Battlefront is purely focused on conquering the objectives. I have come to see matches where the max killer ended the game with 81 kills and his team still lost.

    I would try to change and make easier most vehicles controls, since in some maps it's very complicated to handle.

    As for the gameplay vs IA, it's just boring, that's for sure, but when you play with ppl is much more fun, especially when you try to complete the Master mode and 5 stars difficulty, is a worthy challenge that require coordination with your team and skill.

    I've spent tons of hours playing Destiny and I'm immensely grateful for the rise up to 60fps (Destiny has 30fps), the gameis much more fluid. And what about the graphics? It is the strong point of this game, simply stunning.

    One point that I would have strengthened to please the series fans (personally I'm not a Star Wars fan myself), would had been to put more background, both online and multiplayer versus AI.

    As I said, for me it was one of the best multiplayer of the year and I'm enjoying it very much.

    The first mistake you make if you buy Star Wars battlefront is thinking you are gonna get a good singleplayer experience and that you will get your moneys worth if you stay singleplayer only, because you probably won't, BUT there actually is single player stuff and its actually pretty good, especially if you have a friend to play split screen with.

    The gameplay is great, it's fun, addicting, not too hard to learn, the heroes and villains are great and so are the ships (if you have trouble flying them, invert Y axis, it helps a lot) the music and sound effects are simply PERFECT and the graphics are fantastic, DICE really nailed the star wars aesthetic here. The multiplayer in Battlefront is great, the best modes are Supremacy, Walker Assault, Hero's vs Villains and Fighter squadron.

    Now this game isn't perfect, it DESPERATELY NEEDS the capability to do split-screen while in online multiplayer, that would be fantastic. There isn't enough offline content, the ability to play the online modes while offline against bots would fix that. There needs to be MORE planets/maps and heroes, it's disappointing that we are getting them in an overpriced season pass.

    Now, is this game worth it's price?? If you love star wars and want a fun shooter that feels like star wars the YESSSS this is worth it. If you don't / kind of like star wars then i would not recommend this, the star wars feel just wont be for you. YES the game needs more content, NO this is not a bad game. Just imaging what DICE could have done if they had an extra 6 month of development.......    … Expand

    I don't actually know why so many people say that the game hasn't enough content... It has i think around 10 modes, AND ALL OF THEM ARE INTERESTING! There's enough possibility to play as the heroes, I think. I think it will be even better with the Season pass, but it's too much to pay 50 dollars for a DLC.

    Fun gameplay, it's not COD/battlefield level of sophistication but it's a reasonably level playing field and easy to pick up and play whilst also being open to players developing skill sets.

    The lack of a campaign and solo play is not a factor for me, that is why I play the likes of MGS, Witcher etc so I purchased this game for multiplayer action which is what I have got.

    Overall I can understand the complaints and I would have preferred a complete game up front rather than a ton of add ons through DLC. The guys complaining that air combat is too easy should figure out how to take it to the next level and the same with the rest of the game play imo. My conclusion is that it is a good game which might become great with updates, I've enjoyed it so far and am not bored after a couple of weeks.    … Expand

    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.
