    Is this the amazing instant classic continuation of the franchise we played before no.... is it a fun stunning game and an excellent start to a reboot? hell yes. Battlefront is alot of fun is it prefect no but after playing all 3 battlefronts now excessively i can honestly say i feel like im in the world alot more in this one then i ever did before.
    Visuals/sounds of course are amazing

Battlefront is alot of fun is it prefect no but after playing all 3 battlefronts now excessively i can honestly say i feel like im in the world alot more in this one then i ever did before.
    Visuals/sounds of course are amazing everything looks,sounds and feels like you are coming out of the movies in amazing detail. stormtroopers die and fall over in ways you remember you react to environment around you without impeding your play it's fantastic
    Common gripes are because of the no story and it's repetitive. First i want to remind this is a reboot and the first battlefront also didnt have a story. Second me and a friend who love playing the old battlefront together have played alot of the new battlefronts missions. The battles and survival modes are alot of fun even playing them continuously and we've enjoyed these modes alot more then we enjoyed the story or normal battles itself.
    I also want to point out that the original battlefront was bare bones compared to the newest one. Both battlefront one and two had one main mode where you captured command posts it was alot of fun and i played it alot but it was repetitive. They did add things in two like the jawas vs tusken raiders but the overall mode was the same. This reboot battlefront has several modes all playing very different and all very fun.
    Another common complaint is no space battles ,again i'd like to point out as a reboot this is even with battlefront 1. Despite this unlike battlefront one they have an amazing replacement. Fighter squadron is a specific mode just for dogfights through the amazing detailed maps. As fun as space combat was in the original the actual battles was the same thing every time. What i enjoyed about it was the dogfights and this mode perfectly fills that void and more.
    The game isnt prefect a lack of planets that even battlefront 1 had hurts. also it's not meant for fans of high skill multiplayer shooters. This is definitely meant for casual fun in star wars worlds.

    This game by no means deserves a 0-4 this game never promised to be a high skill game for cs:go players. It has alot more modes then the originals each of which are more enjoyable then the original mode. It does suffer from the lack of an era in the wars though thats probably do to the internet hating the prequels in every other regard but battlefront and the game is still alot of fun. No campaign is a bummer but this is meant as a reboot not a 3rd game and battlefront 1 didnt have campaign either. Despite this the missions and survival playing solo or with a friend more then makes up for it. The fun of space battles have been capitalized and improve in fighter squadron. Despite what people may try and tell you this isnt a battlefield reskin. I'm not a big fan of battlefield and went into battlefront expecting it to be a reskin and was thankfully proven wrong. I dont ever feel like i'm playing battlefield the movement,vehicle controls,gameplay are all different and feel that way.
    This game is a solid great take on the franchise and im already pouring alot of hours into it. Take of your nostalgia glasses take a hard look at the modes and gameplay of the original and this is easily a vast improvement. Real score is about a 8 going to give it a 9 though to help this stupid system of giving a game a 0 or a 3.

    I find the game fun, but I am a sucker for anything Star Wars, especially when the visuals are some the best I've seen. However, if you are not a Star Wars nut like me, I would avoid this game at all costs, there is just not enough here, content wise, or gameplay wise.

    I gave the game an 8, because like I said, I'm a sucker for Star Wars, and have spent 55 hours playing so far, but for the average hardcore gamer this game would be a 5... sadly.

    I have been a DICE Battlefield fan since BC1 all the way up to BF4 placing in the top 50 for BC2 and BF3. That said I cant even fathom why DICE would only have 4 maps for the premier game mode Walker Assault. Its the only game mode I like and my friends like, so I spent $60 on 4 maps.
    Could you imagine the uproar if DICE released only 4 maps for Conquest and Rush on the next Battlefield

I don't know what they were thinking, but the game should have been released for $40 not $60. Ea should slash the season pass price in half for this rip off. Graphics and sound are amazing but replaying 4 maps over and over with a broken party system just doesn't cut it.

I don't buy shooters of this nature for the campaign. SP, in these games, serves only as a brief diversion in which to get a feel for the weapons, compared to the MP heart of the game. Compare a brief 8 hours put into BF4 campaign compared to 800 hours played in MP mode. 100:1 MP to SP. No brain-er. I'm happy paying full price including season pass for a game I know will deliver, in spades, in the entertainment department. A years worth of fun ahead of me in this amusement park, at least.

    A REALLY GOOD GAME!
    The low scores are not justified. I read a (rather lengthy) user review below that gave it a zero, but also admitted not playing the game and based the score on a 5 minute trailer.
    If you're not into COD and are looking for some multiplayer fun Battlefront has you covered.

    Bottom line this game is just pure fun, you just pick up and play. It doesn't have the customization of Battlefield (which 85% of the unlocks never get used anyway) nor the twitch shooting mechanics of Call of Duty (if this is what you were expecting this isn't the game for you).

It doesn't have the customization of Battlefield (which 85% of the unlocks never get used anyway) nor the twitch shooting mechanics of Call of Duty (if this is what you were expecting this isn't the game for you). Battles actually feel like battles where a group of troopers can be trading fire with a group of rebels and it's fun and intense. Walker Assault and Supremacy only have 4 maps but they are huge well designed maps, the smaller game modes have many more which are also designed well. The customization is limited but it is a star wars game after all. One thing no one mentions is that this game actually has split screen co-op and is a blast to play with your child or a sibling. Survival is fun and can get pretty hectic through the final rounds. The spawns can be hectic sometimes but that seems to be a problem in most games these days *cough halo 5 cough.

    If you don't remember what Battlefront 2 was actually like please stop comparing this game to it for it feels exactly the same as the old ones. Yes there is no space battles but there is Fighter Squadron mode, no there aren't any classes but gamers these days can't seem to grasp how to use a class system and never drop health and ammo anyway (look at bf4). And you can't call BF2 campaign a campaign, it was a rotation of conquest mode with audio laid over top. If you want that just load up a single player battle and repeat the 4 missions a few times until you've felt you've won.

    This game is geared towards a more casual audience, it's not for the hardcore but can be if you let it.

It's a very tight game, never feeling sloppy or slapped together, as many EA games are accused of being. The downside? A lack of maps.

    Perhaps people don’t like to enjoy things for what they are anymore. But this reviewer would argue to enjoy everything in it’s place. Not every game needs to be played hundreds of hours to be enjoyed. I slapped down $13 to watch The Force Awakens on Dec. 18th. That will be complete in 2 hours. $60 for something I’ll enjoy for 40+ hours sounds fine to me, and the first 10 hours have been indicative of a worthwhile game.

The graphics and sound are absolutely amazing. The game play is amazing as well. EA has a bad Reputation and there are a lot of trolls that give it a bad score because they're horrible at the game. Some of the users that rated it under 8 wouldn't know a good game if it slapped them in the face and it's obnoxious. I've played almost all the modes by myself and I love them, can't imagine how fun it'll be with a team. Yes there is no in game chat, in my opinion it's not a bad thing and saves you from having to mute the annoying squeakers etc. when playing FPS I'm always in a party chat so, no in game isn't a big deal to me. DICE kind of made it difficult on themselves when they followed the original trilogies and won't deviate from it to be able to add more content like weapons etc. Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the obvious trolls rating this low. To the trolls, it's not the game that sucks, it's you. Buy this game if you want endless hours of fun!!!! Expand

    I'll still give it an 8, as there's a lot of fun to be had. The potential here is amazing and with the graphics, sounds, gameplay all being top quality, it's a shame that you have to spend almost 200 dollars to experience variety.

Those of you who love to snipe, well this isn't the game for you. There are two snipers but they come in the form of star cards and so only can be used a couple times a match.

    This game really brings out the old battelfront players. So those of you who are new to the series, it will take you a while to get used to it. Those of you who are call of duty players coming to this game, you are not going to be able to just slide in and dominate the battelfront. This game is for star wars fans and Battelfront fans and I think this reboot did amazing. Thank you EA.

Thanks to the holograms placed on the maps, gameplay becomes more varied, so we don't have to be a grunt all the time during a single battle. We can pilot an X-Wing or TIE Fighter, an AT-ST or AT-AT, or even become a hero, such as Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Han Solo and more.

    On the bad side, there's a lack of content, maybe reserved for the announced DLCs. Only 6 heroes, only two starfighters for the Empire, three for the rebels (and only two for the fighter mode). There are 4 worlds with several maps on each (Jakku is coming in a couple of weeks), but their marked environments feel like all the maps on the same planet are the same map.

I guess you cannot please everyone.

    This is a great game and one I have waited over 10 years for. Please give this game a chance and play with friends, because that is when a bulk of the fun begins. The replay value with friends will be great as new maps are added. One last comment on the maps, they are amazing and I found myself continuing to find new paths and places to hide and use to my advantage. We have not discovered all the unique gems of the game.

    Finally, lets not under report how stable the launch has been. I played several online games on DAY1 and had ZERO server issues on PS4. When was the last game to launch with such a stable online environment???? COD Black ops III has had multiple server outages and issues that ruined my ability to play online in week one. DICE has done a great job preparing for launch and making one of their best stable games to date!!

    Star Wars Battlefront is the Star Wars game I have always wanted, the multiplayer is spot on. Controls are some of the best in gaming, the only downfall(for some people anyway) is the lack of a campaign. This day and age campaigns in FPS games are usually skipped anyway.

    -If you're a Star Wars fan this is a must buy, the action is immersive. If you ever wanted to see what it felt like to hold a blaster on Hoth this is your game. -THIS IS NOT BATTLEFRONT 3 from a decade ago. A lot of negative reviews harp on this point.

    -If you're a Star Wars fan this is a must buy, the action is immersive. If you ever wanted to see what it felt like to hold a blaster on Hoth this is your game.
    -THIS IS NOT BATTLEFRONT 3 from a decade ago. A lot of negative reviews harp on this point. That game had two predecessors and years for the developer to build on their engine. This is a great start for EA in Battlefront universe and all of those features people are whining about not having that was supposed to be in 3 may come about down the road in the franchise but the lack of features that were in development for a game that never came out in 2008 doesn't take anything away from this game and is well worth your investment.
    -Controls are smooth and responsive, flight takes a little getting used to but once you get it it's so much fun. This game features the best Star Wars flying experience since Rouge Squadron.
    -Visuals are beautiful EA DICE went above and beyond with their modeling one of the best looking games for this console generation thus far.
    -Sound is absolutely amazing. This is what really factors into the immersion I mentioned earlier. From laser blasts to the sound of a tie-fighter's engine they absolutely nailed it.
    -The lack of a single player campaign is somewhat disappointing, but they are various single player missions available to help you get used to the controls. These missions are fun and can be challenging. I still haven't mastered the speeder bike yet though. I just wish there were more of them.
    -Maps are designed reasonably well again just wish there were more of them. There will be plenty of DLC around for this game but it's pretty expensive. I chose not to buy the season pass and to wait and see what the DLC is before I decide to buy said DLC. Something tells me the DLC will be pretty expansive but we'll wait and see.
    -Plenty of game types to try from a simple TDM to the incredibly fun walker assault plenty to keep you busy.
    -Lots of blasters and other weapons to unlock as well as lots of character customization.
    -Multiplayer runs very well haven't experienced any lag. There was a slight server hiccup right after launch where you couldn't find a game but after about 45 mins or so servers were up and working fine. No in-game chat unfortunately so you'll have to use the Xbox party system to communicate with your friends, I don't mind this because now I don't have to listen to a 12 year old cursing and saying racial slurs and I use Party most of the time anyway but I can see why people would be let down by not having in-game chat. I don't like the fact you can only use a partner spawn rather then a squad spawn. If you have an odd number of players in your party one person will have to partner up with a random player while everyone else will have an in-party partner to spawn on. This is probably my biggest complaint.

    Overall a great game with some minor things that I felt could have been better. I hope this is helpful for anyone looking to buy the game. Don't believe the haters and the COD and Battlefield fanboys go out and try this game and I promise you'll have fun.

However that said, if you do not like Star Wars I would not recommend this game for you- there is not much content and if you are solely purchasing for good gameplay there is better games out for that.

Just make sure you keep your receipt in case you are not satisfied. I will give it an 8 out of 10 for that. Now to get to rank 50 so I can be a Twi-lek. Expand

    I want to focus on just one element of the game. Honestly EA did a phenomenal job with optimization. I use two 970's to game at 4k, for most of the new releases I'm lucky to get 50fps at medium with AA off. I am literally playing this on high with AA on @4k running a perfect 60fps, without even one stutter. The game runs and looks gorgeous. Compare that to fallout, where with all settingsI want to focus on just one element of the game. Honestly EA did a phenomenal job with optimization.

    Amazing game, graphics, gameplay. Smooth and stable server. Probably the best multiplayer ever done by EA Dice. Addictive game. You can try now on EA Acess if you dont believe me. The best multiplayer of this year is this game. And if you are star wars fan, you will be amazed!

    This game is a wonderfull game, the graphics are amazing ! Just disappointed by the absence of the Clone Wars but the game is very cool, getting started is very easy. I love this game and i'm excited to know the sequel.

    Gun-play is almost flawless. There is a mode for pretty much every kind of player. But the lack of a single player campaign hurts the score I gave it. If you want to make a successful shooter then you need to cater to the gamers that don't like playing online as well.

    The issue is that this game plays it safe and doesn't offer anything new in its core shooting gameplay. It ignores progress made in the genre and that's most upsetting. Casual players will have a blast but it really isn't for the rest of us in my opinion.

    Multiplayer shooter designed primarily for Star Wars fans. Simpler than its genre competitors it is, but it’s open to players of all kinds - at the same time it is not for everyone because of that “anyone can play” approach. [Issue #259]

    As close as you'll get to getting your childhood back. Dig through the incredible production values and you'll find a serviceable shooter, but one with a potentially terminal lack of content. [Jan 2016, p.73]
