Havent played enough to judge yet. I do find it gets repetitive rather fast atm.

They've got the foundations for a great game. It just needs some substance. Everything I've tried so far feels really shallow. Plus no server browser means you'll never really be able to settle into the game. It's like an amusement park ride.

Maybe, but I was a skeptic til I played the beta, I absolutely love it and it feels very little like a battlefield title, it is very easy to just jump in, super fast to find a server and play some rounds. It is very very fast action, no camping, and so on.

Doesn't matter if it's an absolute train wreck of a game, it'll still be one of the best selling games of the year. DICE + Star Wars license = $$$$$$$$$$$$$

Going to try the beta later and see for myself however it doesn't look like a bad game. Having said that though, it doesn't look like the sort of game that I'll still be loading up in 12 months time regularly like I did with the original Battlefront games.

It is actually pretty fun

I remember the good old days when new games were greeted by excitement and anticipation.

What with all the pixel counting, pissing contests, click-bait, naysayers and trolls it can be hard to remember this is supposed to be an enjoyable, fun, hobby.

Would have loved a straight single player campaign to be included but from what I've seen it looks fun. I might pick it up at a discount or if my friends who are buying it love it I will get it. Just too many games coming around that time for me to buy it at launch. Gonna be pouring hours and hours and hours into Halo 5, Fallout 4 and Rise of the Tomb Raider.

Ah !! The good ol' fashioned and expected whining . Love what i've seen from the beta thus far . It was fun and exciting .

And people can coop and play offline in the same non-existing campaign they never really had , except it's called what it truly was , finally now , a bunch of missions with bots and a tutorial for multiplayer .

I think its going to be huge. IMy reaction was yeah, this feels like star wars but I'd rather play Destiny whereas my friends were blown away and saying this was the best game ever

"Have fun trying to get the matchmaker to drop all ten of your parties into the same server. Spoiler alert: it never does."

Been doing that regularly since the start of the beta . The author is mostly b*tching about the same stuff people have been rehashing since the announcement of the game and netcode , regardless of what the beta actually shown .

Guess there will always be some haters. overall i love the game and thats what ive heard from majority of players and friends also.

I've never played any of the battlefield games so I can't compare unfortunately. Having said that I'm really enjoying what little we have to play at the moment. It's so funny to see everyone run away when Luke or Darth come after them and when I finally got to be Luke last night I couldn't stop smiling after killing 9 people. Sure they need to balance the game a little more but as a Star Wars fan I couldn't have asked for more. The graphics are crisp and fluid and the sound effects are spot on. I know Dice can't please everyone but I can easily see myself getting $60 worth of enjoyment out of this game.

No campaign, no buy!

I'm sorry you say somethinf??I was too busy blasting rebel scum.

I'm still on the fence. No space battles, no single-player campaign, no server browser really stinks. My friends and I (there was 4 of us) had matchmaking/online issues all day and I have already noticed the netcode problems the author mentions (I know "its a beta" dude). I played the beta all day yesterday and while a bit of fun it has already become repetitive and shallow ("beta", ya I know). I just remember playing the BF1942 demo and thinking to myself; "I'm gonna play this game for years!" With BattleFront I'm more like; "Ya, I might play this game for a few weeks." In the end the real question everyone has to ask themselves is: Is this game really worth $60? I'm sure most will say yes.

This game is definitely Star Wars: Battlefield, and I have to say it IS fun, it just doesn't really have the soul of Battlefront so much.

What's most fun to me is that you can jump right back into the fray instantly. But every mode just ultimately devolves into team deathmatch. Also I heard that bots will be in the fray for the 40player battle, but I'm not sure if it's true.

Why? Because it's fun, gorgeous, and works well?

No it won't, as a casual I loved thw pick up and play and it looks fantastic.

Definitely one for Christmas.

It's kinda funny people keep complaining about the absence of Space Battles, because I remember the flight controls in Battlefront 2 being extremely clunky.

Imho the thing that is slightly hurting the game is the lack of a Campaign mode like Battlefront 2 had. I just got done playing the beta for it, and it feels like a PS2 game which is a a good thing imo. You have power ups, lives, third and first person view which can be changed quickly, and pretty accurate weapons.

It feels like a game, and feels like a Star Wars game which is a great thing, because in this generation it seems like most games are going for a too cinematic approach and try to be a little melodramatic.

I played the Survival mode where you fight off 6 Waves of Enemies and some of those enemies are AT-ST's, the thing I see that I don't really care for is that the AI seems really autistic, but it is a beta so hopefully the retail copy won't have that. I will go leave that feedback on EA's forums so they can try to improve that aspect of the game, unlike a lot of beta testers that don't provide anything.

What did you like about the beta? What did you dislike about the beta?

Yay another remake the same old game thread.
This game is like being IN Star Wars and people complain.

If you want to play old Battlefront go buy an old system and play it. It's almost 2016.

The people bitching about the AT-AT being on rails are the same people that would be complaining about noobz not knowing how to drive them properly. The token system is fine and keeps people from going on 400 hit kill streaks since the walker is way too powerful to be able to use 100% of the time.

Dual-Login Splitscreen Co-Op was all my GF and I needed. Can't wait.

never tried it.. Hopefully it has a demo

this game will do fine, i don't even like star wars and i like it. only problems i see currently is lack of specials scattered around battle field, and lack of directions on what to do in battle.

What a pathetic article. The game is nowhere near a disaster, and no, even if all three of those things were true, that doesn't equal a disaster.

A 're-skinned Battlefield'... sure except it plays nothing like Battlefield.

They only allowed unlocks to level 5, there will be alot more there, and while it is 'classless' it's much more like CoD in the sense that you can customize your perks basically.... which then push you into a pseduo unnamed class based on what you can get from the Star Cards.

The game is great, you just have to learn to play it and get into it. If you try playing like it's battlefield, uh-oh.

You need to play the objective while getting the powerups. Place down turrets, steal the other side's, use vehicles, use the shield, use the rocket jump, use that sniper card, use your detonator, know when to use orbital strike (against vulnerable AT-AT). I could go on and on, but you have to start playing that style.

You have to learn how to use rocket jump effective, how to use the shield effectively, how to use the sniper thingy effectively. Everything has a weakness, and you have to figure that out.

People are struggling not knowing because IT'S DIFFERENT!!! You know... as in not Battlefield and not anything else. It's DIFFERENT!!! Learn how this game's paper/rock/scissors work, and then realize there will be a lot more modes, weapons, star cards to unlock.

The first few matches I was a bit meh, but I was also hungry as hell and didn't know what I was doing. After eating, and absorbing a bit of what's possible and getting some idea in my head what the map is like and where powerups are, etc... and started working those advantages I could find, it clicked, and became super fun.

Have had matches such as 56-13 or 11-37. Obviously the first side is empire and the other side was rebels, but your k/d ratio doesn't matter, did you win or not? That's what matters.

My rebels were winning walker assault nearly half the time.

TitanFall is ten times better!

This game is never going to flop lol the Films alone will push the sales up a few million...

The vocal community is barely 5% of the people who like the game. If you think this is going to be a flop then your going to be mighty surprised by how well it sells. It has the potential to be up there with GTA and CoD in terms of sales.

I'm gonna wait till next year before I get this. I don't like paying $60 to be a Beta tester.

It's ok. MGO is more fun to me. The trailer did hype me up for this game like always getting fooled by a trailer again. Not paying full price for a online only game. I'd wait for a price drop to $30.

I'll enjoy the beta until next year when hopefully a price drop does just that.

It's going to sell very, very well. However, I can see it getting something around an 80 Metascore and being considered by shooter fans to be way below expectations. It's quite boring after the first few hours.

played like 15 min, killed on sight from any direction, wtf, out, uninstall.

Just grabed the beta and i am loving it .

To me the game did not have natural game mechanics, like Tianfall. The game instantly reminded me of Battlefeild 4 from the loadouts to the map to the control feel. I died too many times in the beta version and almost nothing from the first game. Some things about the game I do like, such as no ammo since everything recharges.
