Why is this shit even allowed?
The upcoming DLC contains more content than the base fucking game, with even more maps and playable "Heroes".
If you want to fully enjoy this game you have to be prepared to pay 80-100€ (Am Eurofag) which is the equivalent of two brand new games. What the fuck is going on?
I know EA is the Jewiest, greediest, gayest fuckers on this heap of shit we call Earth. But even they have to realise that this shit is pure cancer.
The game isn't even that fucking good, I feel deeply fucking sorry for whatever dumb motherfucker actually pays that much for one game.
Rest in peace every parent who has an annoying 12 year old kid who will force them to buy this because "muh Star Wars, pew pew".
EA, you've fucking done it again you piece of toxic ballsweat.
Also, If you haven't watched the new Star Wars movie then don't check the filename.
Because people pay for it. That's the only reason.
It's allowed because retards will buy it. Then next year, they'll buy the next AAA turd and the DLC for that too.
Its almost as if this new Battlefront exists to cash in on all the Star Wars hype generated by the movie.
Im enjoying it. I also paid $12 for it. Just dont buy the special editions. Its up to personal opinion if you like the game. Let people like whatever they want to like.
>buying an EA game at launch
>not waiting a year to buy the game and all DLC for $20
still haven't learned your lesson? DESU SENPAI I'm disappoint.
>>320654273
It's not that they're not allowed to play what they like, it's that your wallet is being gangraped in the process.
>>320654273
>$12
where? base game or season pass?
>>320653915
the movie is smashing every record known to man, and the game is selling like hotcakes and ppl are eating it up. its an amazing, fun game, and pl are loving it. just deal with it instead of being so rectally ragnaroked over it.
>>320654558
>rectally ragnaroked
I prefer the term "analy annihilated".
I'm not stopping you from giving your hopefully hard earned money to already rich fucks who's scamming the shit out of you like some ghetto con artist.
It's just that I want to make you aware of how fucking stupid you are.
>>320654458
I traded in forza 6 and got $31. I bought forza 6 for 35 on black friday and played it like crazy. And battlefront was only $40.
>>320654558
>and the game is selling like hotcake
Except its not.
>33% off just one month after release
>Battlefront PS4 bundles sitting on store shelves while Uncharted bundles are sold out everywhere
>EA won't talk about its sales numbers
I'm sure its sold a decent amount, but not nearly enough to cover EA's 'at least 13M copies by March 2016' expectations.
Because the base game will drop to $5 eventually and the season pass will still be $50.
independent of small map selection and being different than the other battlefronts, is the core gameplay still fun?
i watched some gamplay videos on youtube and it seemed fine, basically just a big team battle FPS with a star wars coat of paint
>>320654995
Trading shit in for value towards something doesn't count as getting it for $12 dude
>>320654558
>the game is selling like hotcakes
According to who? EA isn't saying anything about sales numbers
>You get this for Christmas as a gift
>You have to buy PS+ to even fucking try to enjoy it
Fuck, what do I do anons?
Because its fucking EA. I got back into playing the Sims 3 after haven't playing it since release and upon entering the main menu, I am being plummeted with messages to buy more shit. You literally cannot get rid of these messages, they invade every fucking menu. That is of course, after entering profile details for a mandatory social feature in a fucking single player game. This is not what the game was like on release and is a testament to EA's work ethos.
>>320655583
My girlfriends brother bought this shit for their 10 year old cousin, too bad the kid(s parents) will have to pay the price of a new game to be able to play it online, I feel for those poor fuckers.
Actual spoilers ITT

The Empire destroys the rebel base on Hoth in the movies.
>>320653915
They wanted it out in time for the movie so they could get maximum profit due to massive star wars hype, but they clearly cut corners to get it out in time. The content that isnt in the game will be sold back as dlc, but EA will deny it. And all the star wars fans will willingly pay for it.
>Damn those graphics!
>holy shit that audio
>....that content?
>>320656829
Yeah, hopefully they'll realize that their game is going to fucking hell and lower the price drastically, according to another thread that was running on /v/ 20 mins ago the PC community is either dead or their PC servers suck ass.
What ever happened to this game getting a wave of new players once the new movie came out?
>>320658272
That didn't work out.
>>320659116
Is the new damage control going to be a Christmas sale?
>>320659164
Probably, hope it goes down like the twin towers though.
>>320659264
Same. When it bombs and a better company makes another BattleFront game,I'll wake up.
>>320659515
>EA giving up their Star Wars license
top kek anon
>>320653915
OP you're an idiot for thinking it would be any different. How the hell do you not know how EA works after all these years? You not knowing how gaming works this generation is more hilarious than this star wars game even existing.
>>320660403
Which is why I woke up. Even if EA had the license I was hoping that a better company would develop it.
>mfw Mexican origin has the Ultimate edition for $50 which is pretty much all the game with pre-order Bullshit and season pass included
>mfw it's fun and can't wait until they release the expansions
>>320661313
>mfw broke as hell and can't afford either the game or season pass.
>>320654558
>the game is selling like hotcakes
They already have the digital version of that shit on sale for 33% off, the ONLY reason EA would do that is because nobody is buying it.
I've never boutgh a season pass or dlc ever but I might have to this time. I mean I have every other star wars game but this is pretty much all you have for current gen. As a star wars fan it's either buy the dlc or I won't have any star wars game to play.
>>320662605
Or they are doing it because the movie came out and more people would be interested, so if they lower the price there is more of a reason to buy it.
>>320656212
If Ren is Rey'scousin, then does that mean that Luke is herfather?
>>320662962
>>320653969
This.
I got BF4 like half a year ago with premium for 20€ all DLC and and shit. Just wait a bit.
>>320662962
>>320655363
true, but that's how normies think and that's how gamestop makes their money.
>>320655754
i'm not saying paid online is okay, but it's less than 5 bucks a month, it's not exactly a financial strain worthing pitying.
>>320663131
>>320663369
I'm not saying the game is good, I'm just calling it how I see it from a marketing perspective. Without any concrete sales data the only thing I can make are conjectures like that.
>>320662962
LOL
That's not business.
When something is in demand, people will pay a good amount of money for whatever the product is.
But not only is the game still fresh, and not only has it been bashed, but it has bombed. They want to salvage whatever they can, and by Februrary or March, they'll be in full damage control.
>>320663674
>it bombed
Wait, I thought the console version at least was selling well.
Enjoy your purchase :^)
>>320663674
At the same time, the demand of a product will increase if the cost for the product goes down.
>>320653915
lmao like, just don't buy it then, dude, lol
>>320661313
>fun
no its not, 50 dollars is a good deal on it but it is a bad game in a star wars skin, it fucks up the story of the movie, boring gun play and stupid tokens
>>320665236
Holy shit, are you guys still mad that they didn't cater to you? I thought you assholes would understand that they go where the demographics is. If you think devs shouldn't make their games friendly to sjw's because they don't buy them, then why do you think they should cater to your assholes if casuals are going to be the majority of the market? If you want to play battlefront 1 and 2 so much, go play them, you pieces of shit. This new game is perfectly fine and really fun to play.
>>320665550
>Holy shit, are you guys still mad that they didn't cater to you? I thought you assholes would understand that they go where the demographics is
Considering it's not doing to well they should cater to those assholes you're talking about.
I bought this to see how it was and it's so fucking bland and boring despite the amazing graphics and sound.
There's no satisfaction to killing anybody, it just feels like they got in the way of your laser fire. Everything is dull and requires absolutely no skill.
>>320665716
nice meme. I love how you assholes are so insistent that this game is dead when all evidence points to the contrary.
>>320653915
I just noticed the filename.
>>320665969
Your move, shill.
Should've sold this game at $20
>>320653915
I bought it for 40 bucks and I'll buy the season pass for 20 with coupons or on sale.
fite me
>>320666050
These are good numbers, dipshit
>>320666390
That's low you shill. It's about the same as BF4. Like I said, your move.
>>320665550
So your standards are lower. Don't argue then and eat your shit.
>>320666516
Again, you're implying that that number is bad. Black Ops 3's concurrent PC players are also about 25k only. It's a decent number.
>>320666067
meet me in front of wal-mart.
>>320666667
That's bad too.
>>320666390
How is 50k players on PC being dead?
Unless you think a game needs 200k+ players like LoL and CS:GO to not be dead? But by that definition, pretty much every game is dead.
>>320666050
Why'd you post old stats?
It's sitting at 150k right now.
>>320666787
For multi-player games not aimed at PC specifically, it's a good number
>>320667059
Then post them. I'd like an update.
>>320667074
It really isn't. It's kind of alive at best, but I was refuting your claim that it's doing the opposite of dead, which would be very alive. It's especially dead on Twitch at all hours of the day. If it isn't dead now by your standards it will be by the end of this quarter.
>>320667362
>>320663096Yes
>>320667828
>Less players than Warframe
how
>2015
>Buying EA games
You asked for it faggot.
>>320667362
The opposite of dead is alive, bruh. And it may very well be dead by 2016, and I will call it so once it is, but until then, claims that it's "dead on arrival" or "dead at launch" are pretty much false.
I bet my left testicle when the force awakens DLC releases those cucks at dice will still let you play with no stormtrooper helmet even though the movie LITERALLY says stormtroopers aren't allowed to take them off
>>320668042
Total?
Is it really?
>>320667828
Thank you, anon. I will use this new one as proof.
>>320668080
See>>320667828
It looks dead to me.
>>320668252
No, just PC
>paying over $300 for what should be a $60 game
>willingly doing this to yourself
>buying hyped shit instead of an actual video game
>>320653915
>the game is shit
>the movie is shit
>the game is panned by normies for being shit and no content
>the movie is getting panned for being a shitty rehash
Just wait OP, battlefront will teach EA not to be greedy jews. Not to mention you'll get bored of it anyways even if you get it due to how shallow the entire game is.
