how many people will look at the title, not look at the fact it's satire, then come to the comment section and go completely nuts

How about I give DICE, Criterion Games and Motive Studios a standing ovation.

I truly dislike EAs business practices. But I still respect the hardwork those studios put into the game.

Fuck EA

It's trendy to hate on EA right now, but over-all the game itself is actually fun when you're rolling with a few friends. With or without good loot box cards.

Headshots definitely help :)

When I seen the title I was thinking, what the heck did this dude smoke? Than I read; satire....ok!!!😆

Screw EA!!!

Am I reading that correctly? EA deserves a what now?! Oh, it's satire. Thank god.

This is satire luckily lol or the author would have got ripped to shreds

EA has saved so many development studios and voted greatest company various times. Surely they are a beacon of hope that all publishers should strive to emulate 😂

/s ?

lol
If this wasn't classed as satire it could easily be published on gamesindustry.biz.

I'm going to buy for the campaign but I decided I'll wait & trade in a couple of games towards my purchase sometime next month.

This might be the most anti consumer game out right now. Well done EA!

I love EA. Been buying their products for over a decade. If it wasnt for them, lots of developers wouldn't be around today. If it wasnt for them, football competition wouldn't be at an all time peak with many football games to choose from.

When EA buys a developer for their assets, I know that that developer is in good hands. They are so innovative and will always be the first to bring out something new that benefits gamers. And they are at the forefront of VR.

Reading the comments i realize most of the people here don't even bother to read the articles.

It's a great game honestly, just that they absolutely destroyed it with the loot system.

Clickbait, satire trying for popularity. Will journalists stoop to any length for a click.

What a clickbait headline. Good thing they put “satire” in the description below.

This will make money but the player drop off is gonna be epic

I think this site just became one of my fav websites

Well done. Got some good laughs.

And you deserve to be horse-whipped for writing this article

Spread the word, buy used. Don't feed EA anymore money.

This article brought to you by EA.

I wonder if you'll see apparitions of Dante, Dante, and Isaac like obiwon, annikan, and Yoda in return of the Jedi hanging around...

Watch some site write this article and remove the satire tag.

its too bad people are avoiding this.. the level designs and events going on the maps are amazing. They showcased the worst stage in the beta

The reviewer forgot the /s.

They should definitely win a prize for "How to take away ever shred of hype for your game and damage it all together" alright. They even managed to dethrone Warner Brothers and Shadow of War and all the unneccesary damage they brought themselves with a game that also won't be winning any GOTY awards anytime soon. Well done.

At this point I'm tired of reading about this debacle.
So many articles and so many comments. Once you read through them its clear that most people are complaining and actually whining about a game they haven't even tried or purchased. Its almost 80% of the comments which is just ridiculous to be honest.

I bought it. I'm enjoying it. And I'm not gonna let any player nor blog/magazine/news site - tell me I can't cause they feel wronged. Sure some of the stuff is iffy and I have every right to say this cause I bought and play it.

The same thing happened with Shadow of War which again I enjoyed and so did many others regardless of other peoples opinions.

If you can't form an opinion yourself without getting your hands dirty and just jump on a bandwagon you should really find something else to do than leave comments about how you don't want to play this game cause you jumped a bandwagon of naysayers. Its fine. Its your decision. Don't force your decision down others throats.

What Battlefront 2? that's how it's passing me by.

Passing on CoD WW2 as only 9 multiplayer maps compared to Sledgehammers previous 16 (that's nearly half a season pass) till the price drops relatively to the content.
Passed on GT Sport as this bit about it's taking a new online direction is a lie - it's much the same as GT6 online but with different name convention (Sport instead of Online Quick Play) so again will buy when price relative to content.
(Black Friday might do it :))

Some men just want to watch the world burn....

FIFA eventually will have loot boxes before you can even sub a player probably, gone off that too due to the money making FUT.

I will pick it up once it’s £15 or less just to play the campaign then sell after finished.Fuck the multiplayer shit I have zero interest in that garbage. Also fuck EA and everyone who defends them.

It doesn't matter what gamers say, this game is going to sell millions of copies regardless of angry gamers due to is Star Wars which equals sales. I can't wait for gamers defending this game just like they defended the original Star Wars Battlefront

EA just tied the rope around their neck they may as well just jump now

look at EA publicist at work lOl ahaha

It's sad for me to say, but I so wanted the game but I will not support greedy devs any longer, especially those who come out and boast about what they're doing as if they're doing no wrong and gamers are sh!t to them.

I have for a while been choosing my games and devs more careful, despite me wanting to play a game in particular, like I said above I won't support the greed no more, I've woke up, took me a while to see but I'm done with them all.

Shame the masses won't wake up and stand against greed in this industry.
