It was shit yesterday, it is shit today and will be shit tomorrow. Just because it is on sale makes no difference.

Only EA and dice could fuck up this series. How do you fuck up battlefront or hell a star wars game?

You're better off with Black Ops 3 (zombies and better multiplayer)

if it's as repetitive as Battlefront 2 that's not a big deal to me. It looks fun. Plus it's Star Wars.
>>
>>321554386
Five reasons? Bitch you only need two

1. Have to $120 for the full game

2.Its an empty reskin of a shitty battlefield game which they couldn't get that right
>>
>>321554386
1. Not developed by Pandemic
2. No Clone Wars
3. No space battles
4. 2 and 3 will be DLC
5. ATAT on rails
What do I win?
>>
>>321554386
1. only 4 maps for the 2 main gamemodes
2. people are only playing the 3 main gamemodes meaning lack of content and 4 maps
3. explosive spam
4. gameplay has no depth and becomes real boring real fast
5. if you want the full game you need to spend another $50

BfrontII is still the better game without contest. BfrontII has better movements, shooting, maps, OPTIONS for how to go about battles, more heroes, the much needed ability to remove heroes from the map, better balancing thanks to each faction having a solid counter-vehicle to each other, and along with having classes comes seeing more variety in troopers. Not all EU shit either, but imperial gunners, scouts, jump troopers, and commanders are all there.

All the new Bfront offers are touched up visuals and.... air battles? I guess? It's really just an extension of ace combat horizon anyway, which was an awful game.

No roll, no buy.

that's pretty much all EA is banking on for this game.
>It's crappy, but it's Star Wars, so it'll sell okay.

My biggest gripe with the game, other than the measly number of maps, is how all the guns feel exactly the same. Like the sniper rifle and a pistol feel exactly the same, the sniper rifle just has one bullet (and only one bullet until you respawn) and a crappy scope.

And the whole hero/villain thing feels like you're just chasing some asshole who has godmode hacks turned on. There's no skill or learning curve, the jerk just has more health and one hit kills.

So should I just continue playing BF2 on gameranger? Is it really that bad?
>>
>>321555078
Every game you have at least 3 guys camping the pickups the whole game. Want to play as a hero? Too bad.

Only 4 maps. Every map basically only has one game type tailored to it which is cool the first few times you play them but having an option for a conquest or rush mode on all maps would be nice.

Around the 20 hour mark you'll get everything you can out of it and have no real reason to continue playing.

No. One of my friends convinced me to buy it, we played for 2 days and then realized that we had already seen all the content. Shit game and a waste of money.

I don't get this complaint. Who cares about the content as long as the gameplay is good?

I have friends who play nothing but DUST_2 on counter-strike for the past decade and they still have fun.

Battlefront 2 actually has options.. strategic gameplay, 33 maps / 16 planets, better infantry and vehicle gameplay, etc.

Played it for like 2 hours yesterday. It's not as bad as people make it out to be, but I wouldn't call it good. Graphics and music are great, all the rest is mediocre. Even 35 bucks seems too much, in my eyes this is more of a 30-25 bucks.
>>
>>321553686
From what I've seen its a cash cow for EA. Without going full tinfoil mega corporations out to get me, it seems EA bought the franchise and were waiting for episode 7 to be released so they could churn this out before the film so everyone goes "OMG new Star Wars! I need my Star Wars fix!!" and buys it

Is Battlefront II community active? I heard you have to use Gameranger to play now.

Also while we're at it, how come anyone ever noticed that Clone Wars model of Anakin is blatantly ripped off of Starkiller

theres a few servers up on GR that are pretty active still

It's aight. There are almost always full games, but I haven't played on the recent servers to figure out if the map rotation is decent.

Hero Assault is heroes only.

The game's fun even if having to traverse hallways with 33 rocket launchers opposing.

The gameplay isn's good enough to hold the game up for long. Unless you're one of those retards who gets a boner everytime they get a kill and go "IM SO FOOKING GUD" and just play to make their balls feel big. Just a nice campaign or an alternative game mode (Like the 3 heroes vs 3 heroes thing) would´ve suffice. The aerial combat is ass.

It´s pretty irrelevant to compare it to a competetivie game that´s decades old just to hammer in the "but it´s the same" argument.

This game is a disaster because its only redeeming factor is the graphics.
It has nothing to offer over other games besides "looks nice" and "Star Wars"
I'm waiting to see if the DLC has anything interesting, but unless they add a very good gamemode or wrewrite the basic mechanics, it won't ever be worth buying
>>
>>321554758
I don't play this game very much but some of my favorite modes aren't the 40 man ones. So I really don't get the 4 maps meme everyone's throwing out there. Even if you did. There's also the ship battles. With another 4 maps. 5 now for both actually because of the free Jakku map.
And how's this pay to win at all? You can't buy coins or cards can you?
Every online game out there is repetitive. If you have friends you can play the survival mode with another 4 maps too
>>
>>321556297
Black Ops 3 is better than EAFront though. It has more games modes and content in just the base game alone.
>>
>>321562638
Walker assault that turret will hit the Y-wings trying to blow up the Walkers. And in both of the 40 man modes Republic side has 2 or 3 ships they can get in.

gamemodes and content doesn't make it a better game.

that's like saying a 12 string is better than a 6 string. blops 3 is a shitty game if playing for the multiplayer, no contest.

What else do you need to know?
It just isn't good. People will say "oh but its FUN"
It's also expensive and probably the worst choice if you want to buy a multiplayer only shooter
>>
>>321565635
Bumping the thread isn't going to stop the game being shit. How many people do you need to tell you the same thing?

Go ahead and buy it anon, don't moan when you realize what we told you is true.
