Graphics are awesome and on ps2 it was 6vs 6 players now its 20 vs 20 so its a little bit bigger.
But alot of people are bitching about it instead of just playing the game for what it is. |

I don't understand why everything has to be multiplayer based.
I've wasted a lot of time on BFII playing galactic conquest just messing around. I'll probably buy it used when it's a lot cheaper. |

Also due to the nature of online gaming, you tend to move on after some time to something else/or the next game in the series. And if you feel like hanging on, too bad because the servers will be shut off. |

Numerous people here nailed it.
The first two Battlefront games were often wide open battles, multiple classes of soldier types, tons of playable vehicles, was moddable and don't let me forget, space combat. Graphics are one thing and alone do not make a game great. I would have rather they just took Battlefront 2 and reskinned it. Never the less, people hate DICE\EA knickle a dime gaming model. And as others have stated, not worth $60. No mods, no dedicated servers, no space combat...The list could go on and on. |

I wasn't terribly impressed with the beta. As most everyone and review says: Looks great, sounds great, plays great in terms of feel and performance. Just feels shallow.
I really wanted that Darth Vader PS4, though, so I have it! It's alright, kind of growing on me. It's fun to jump in a game, not terribly worried about load outs and strategy, and just blast rebel scum or stormtroopers for an hour or so. Lots of things bug me about it though: No Squads. wtf. Granted, I kind of like not listing to kids scream cuss words and racial slurs all night, but....man. It just makes a team orientated game totally chaotic, and winning and losing is just like...a by-product of pewpewing for a while, ya know? Wish you could pick spawn points. I hate when you do finally get some players in synch, and are making a good push towards an objective, and get wacked, and spawn on the other side of the map...And the weird spawning behind enemy lines thing. Nothing worse than when you do spawn all the way across the map, start running, and oh get shot in the back by that enemy that just spawned behind you. :/ The vehicles are pretty crappy overall. I'm getting the hang of air combat, but it ain't no old school X-Wing/TIE Fighter game... |

I was holding out some hope for it, but I'm glad I didn't waste my $$$. Maybe the DLC will flesh it out enough, & then if they offer the whole game + DLC pkg in a bundle deal, I might give it another look. Might... I was hoping to get something for the holidays, but not sure what to look at now. Is "Battlfield 4" any good? Looks like I'll have to wait for the new "Doom" reboot to get my next new game fix. |

1. Dice / EA made and published it.
2. Impeccable timing with the new Star Wars movie coming out. I believe ANY game that is released with/around movie time is destined to be subpar. They utilize the support for the movie to peddle their game that some wouldn't otherwise care for. Nothing wrong with it, but I have been burned by Dice too many times. |

It isn't a bad game, I like it, it's fun. It just gets stale really fast. I'm sure as with all things EA/DICE it'll feel like a complete game once DLCs are out. To me, it's hard to swallow that the first two had way more content IMO. Gorgeous game, just... wish there was more to it at launch. I miss the capital ship boarding modes and the vehicle selection. There aren't classes, no rebel vehicles, lack of vehicle all around really. They would have hit it out of the park if they just made a battlefield game and skinned it with star wars stuff. |

I haven't had the chance to sample it yet, but the reviews haven't been stellar, & what I've seen on YT is meh, IMO. Unless the DLC packs flesh out EAFront, BF2 MP will live on via GameRanger. Even then, I might only be interested in the whole pkg deal at 1/2 price.
Software for the SW franchise have been rather sub-par for about a decade. |

So they keep selling the games for 60 bucks, but they nickle and dime us to death (for the most part), to make up the costs. Just my theory anyway. |

The problem is one of value perception. As in, it doesn't seem like it delivers $60-worth of content. "HALO 5" appears to offer a lot more for the same price. |

It's not just 60 dollars though. 60 dollars gets you half the game. If I don't want to wait 3 years I have to pay 120.00 dollars for the full game and then I have to reinstall origin on my computer, and origin is a giant piece of steaming crap full of russian hackers.

I preferred the first Battlefront with split screen coop. It was fun being able to play on a large scale battlefield against dozens of bots. I was really hoping thats what this new Battlefront would be like but it seems like it is more of a COD mod.

So why didn't they do the bots thing? Doesn't Titanfall use bots?
I played BF2 back when it was new and really liked it because it didn't feel like today's twitchy multiplayer shooters. A player of middling skill like me could still play the game and have fun... but the whole Battlefield concept of today means players like me get ground up and spat out, making us refuse to buy and play any new versions of the game. I want to play Battlefront... but I know I'll just get murdered constantly... and good natured as I am ( ), I won't play a game where all I do is suck and die for longer than a day and I certainly will not pay money for the privilege anymore.
