    The game is pretty good and star wars fans will have a fun time with it. It does not deserve all the 0's ppl are giving it at all. The combat is fun and there are a good number of game modes both singleplayer and multiplayer to mess around in. The graphics are really amazing, especially on Endor.

    There are only two cons that I really have with the game. The first is of course the DLC

    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. Its getting low scores mostly because of the DLC (which is somewhat justified) and butthurt ppl who just wanted a clone of battlefront 2.

    With that objectivity he gets a 0 to this game?
    It is simply ridiculous and not objective, it does not have the conditions for campaign and the issue of dlc (all this can be dicutible from the point of view that you look) mode.
    But for God this is epic battlefront, frenetic, visually delightful, technically a beast with 60 frame to the solid and consistent in ps4 stick, with 0 lag! But

    But it seems clear that many have forgotten how they had launched battlefield and campaign mode maps and more input and which served? if all you have this battlefront makes the multiplayer a unique experience and not have to walk denying to lag drop lows not to mention bugs, and now we must continue to complain because there's always something to do, even though we have a very well careful with the recreation of Endor as the queen of the house,
    Oh, and woe to those who thought this would be a skin of BF4, is undoubtedly disappoint laments different and is 100% star wars sound gets you into the movie and not a game.
    I enjoy this game does not speak of prices if they are expensive, everyone does what most pleases with its money, this is my jovi practically the only thing I invest for my hours of fun, maybe others would like throwing money in the casino, well I like to "throw here"
    As this game is for a 8.5 / 9 points, but I'll give a counter 10 for trolls there are many liars in this forum and others.

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

    1. There are not enough maps or offline modes. I mean, why the hell can't we do a droid capture or a cargo run with AI and a friend on the couch? They're small maps with no more than 12 players. For a $70 game, you do expect to get a little more environmental diversity... especially when there is no campaign. 2. Players die

    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).

    This is not the most in depth shooter out there but it is just straight up fun. Fighter squadron mode is exactly what i've been waiting for and its a blast. If you are a fan of chaotic shooters and want to have a great time then you will love this game.

    I think the game is getting criticized too harshly, definitely doesn't deserve the 0 or 1 scores.

This game is amazing, it doesnt have such a cool unlocking progression, no weapon customisation but the gameplay is just so much fun. I never got to play any different mode that Team dead-mach and dead mach models, but In Battlefront the turning tide or pod drops are just great, really fitting my run and gun style while also adding some more stuff in the mix. So I will sum it up, it is not the perfect game but it might be the most intense fun Im having with game in 2015! Oh yea, I almost forgot, ITS STAR WARS :D Expand

    Battlefront it´s a good game. One of the best visuals today, tiight and responsive controls and stables online servers make the game meet my expetations. The let down it´s the game have few maps, so the envirioment get´s old quickly, and not all the game types feels "fresh".

    The game gives fans of Star Wars exactly what it needs and that's playing the role of iconic character in the world that is Star Wars. The controls are simple and clean. The graphics are amazing and the environments looks luxurious. Definitely recommend for any Star Wars fan looking to live out there dream of living in the Star Wars world.

It has been a while since a good star wars game has come out and I feel that DICE did it right! I feel that all of the negativity surrounding this game is completely unnecessary and actually hurts games more than anything. I feel that this game captures the feeling of the movies and lets you really recreate your own battles. I think that alone makes this game a 10/10. It saddens me that other games can get a 9 out of 10, but this only gets a 7 or 8 out of a 10. I realize that reviews at the end of the day are only one story though and to really tell if your going to like the game is to just play it yourself. That is why I tested the beta and I absolutely loved it. I also believe that DICE really worked very hard on this game and I understand to make games like this today requires a lot of time and hard work. I am thankful that there is people out there that are willing to make great games and I appreciate all of you. I believe that is people should form a review based on Constructive criticism. 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. This world already has hate, war, crime, drugs, and the last thing we need is that in the gaming community. Why can't people just be positive? It is so much better. Anyways thanks again DICE! :D Expand

    it is a really good game so I think an 8 is OK for it. Good graphics and arcade gaming that makes it really addictive.The reason to not get a 9 is that part of season the pass content should come in the original game.
    It is 549 SEK not enough? They create incomplete games to pay another 500 SEK for a season pass. This is sad for sporadic gamers.Since we usually do not buy season passes,

The game is not comparable to the earlier battlefronts as many are doing. This is a reboot in a new decade with new players and new engines. The only large thing the game suffers from is a lack of content. NOT A HUGE LACK but a lack. There should be more maps for the larger, more enjoyable game modes like walker assault, and more original and fitting customization for the imperials. Overall i think this will end up as DLC making this game a 8 instead of a 9. But we do have the free Jakku DLC to look forward to very soon. This is not a 5.2 game. reactionary fanboys post these reviews without even playing or taking into consideration for what DICE was aiming for. Great game cannot wait to see what they have planned for the future and if maybe the season pass will be worth it. 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.

    Hating EA is something of a trend now. you hear people whispering behind closed doors that they actually love the game but just wont admit it because "dlc".
    But i still give this game a 7/10 Because at least 3 more planets would of been awesome but we are getting 1 free planet in about 10 days but 2 or 3 more would of been ideal.

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.

    Confused by the low scores. Battlefront is a beautiful game that sounds amazing with more multiplayer modes than you can shake a Jawa at.

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 have been waiting for a long time for this game and to me it did not disappoint.

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.

    Star Wars Battlefront takes one of the most well known brands and utilizes it in a way that's almost jaw dropping. The game is beautiful and might be the best looking console game I've ever played, it's that impressive. On top of that, it looks like Star Wars, whatever Star Wars looks like. The sound design is also some of the best out there. From a foot step in the snow on Hoth, to aStar Wars Battlefront takes one of the most well known brands and utilizes it in a way that's almost jaw dropping.

The sound design is also some of the best out there. From a foot step in the snow on Hoth, to a blaster beam exploding into a rock on Tatooine it sounds unbelievable. Battlefront goes above and beyond in these places, but fails at putting enough content to make the game feel worthwhile. I've personally been using the same gun since I've started so I can have something to look forward later on in the game when I surely know it will become repetitive. Maps are great, but there aren't enough of them and there are only a few game modes worth spending time on. I hope Battlefront get's non-season pass support to keep regular players engaged in the game, because it's most importantly a very fun experience that is a dud in the content department. Expand

    Awesome game here is why:

    Okay, so there are a bunch of people hating on this game. I'm a casual first person shooter and this game is geared towards my crowd. Yes, it doesn't have the content that you can get in other games. Yes, it doesn't have a single player campaign. Yes, it doesn't have a robust unlock system like other games. Now, that is out of the way lets get started.

    Overall=Great game

    I like Star Wars and this game offers everything a Star Wars fan wants. You have some tutorial missions you can run, some coop missions you can run, survival mode you can run, and the multiplayer. The game is a fun game to pick and play a couple of matches online. It doesn't take you that much time to run thru the online multiplayer matches so your not going to be sitting in front of the TV all the time. In a hour you can run two walker assault matches and one droid run match. Quick and easy. If your looking for a game that has all the fixings like Battlefield 4 or Call of Duty stay away. If you looking for a quick and fun Star Wars experience get it.

    Es ist genau wie's sein soll. Es ist nicht zu kompliziert, macht Spaß und ist für jede Altersgruppe geeignet. Außerdem sieht es wunderschön aus und hat eine gute Star Wars-Atmosphäre!

    It's exactly what it should be. It's not too complicated, makes fun and is suitable for every age. It's also very beautiful and has a very good Star Wars atmosphere!

    Awesome game with a lot of content. I bought this game first day it came out and at first I was not into it at all. I actually did not like the gameplay .I guess I had VERY high expectations. But recently (almost after a year)started playing the game more often and the more I played it the more I liked it. I did buy Season Pass to get access to all expansion packs (well worth the money).Awesome game with a lot of content. I bought this game first day it came out and at first I was not into it at all.

    So what changed my mind about the game ? Well first of all I do enjoy many cool modes in the game and intense battles. Game graphics are beautiful with immersive music and sounds. Weapons are awesome, heroes are super fun to play There is not much to complain about Star Wars. This game is simply joy to play .

    Does exactly what I wanted. An accessible, fun, online Star Wars shooter with staggering visuals, amazing attention to detail and enough modes to keep me occupied for months. It may lack the depth of Battlefield or the immediacy of Call Of Duty, but it's not meant to be either. Accept it for what it is, and what it wants to be, and it's just brilliant.

    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]
