Do you still play it /v/? If not, why?
you should be asking if the dlc is any good
Are you implying that i bought it after playing the demo/beta?
I do. The balancing is kinda messed up. On certain Map in Walker Assault, the Imperials might as well not bother playing because the Airspeeders can one shot the Walkers. Seriously this happened recently and it pissed me off, both out AT-ATs were a pretty much full health but we lost because of the Airspeeders
I play pretty much daily.
The visuals, score and gameplay are GOAT, but fucking shit this games is unbalanced as fuck.
I like it almost as much as I like dicks. Which is a lot.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.
What am I talking about you love me when I'm angry!
That new level 60 rebel skin is terrible, I unlocked it just because it was something to do but I don't use it. Playing Greedo is fun as hell, but you have to be fast because everyone wants him. Do you think they'll change the hero selection back to random?
>>332477649
Doubt it. what makes Greedo fun?
>>332478446
His speed combined with his confidence system, once you get started on a roll you get even more powerful so you want to keep it going. It makes reaching unstoppable and getting the unique imploder so satisfying. Running people down with heightened senses makes him feel like a real bounty hunter.
This game was already treading on thin ice for me until my friend convinced me to get Rainbow Six Siege. After that I would just play this every now and then. Then they announced Greedo and Nien Nunb. Now I don't play it at all.
>>332476410
Occasionally
I got theXbone versionas a gift. it's not a terrible game by any means, but there's just not enough content to make it more interesting for me and i'm not paying for more sand related DLC maps. I hate sand.
there's just not enough staying power for me, I find myself playing Gears and Siege far more often when it comes to current online shooters.
>>332480973
seriously
Greedo and Nien fucking Nunb when we already have Rodian and Sullestan skins?
the dev team obviously doesn't give a shit about true Battlefront fans
It's better, but not good yet.
I'm still pissed at disney over the prequel neglect though, it's stupid how much they're ignoring them.

>unique imploder
I haven't played greedo much, what is the imploder? I know he has a dioxys and impact but I can't remember anything else
>>332482686
The grenade you get as a power-up that has a huge blast range. It makes a cool ass sound and explosion when it goes off.fucking love throwing it at spawn points to get multiple kills or dropping it just before I die to get a revenge kill
>>332476410
The gameplay is pathetically shallow, it's copy of CoD instead of battlefield. You can't play the role of a support medic or a pilot using vehicles you can only play the role of a solider who gets vehicle perks if he gets the necessarily amount of kills which results in everyone charging forward in the start of a match and not seeing a AT-ST until about 5 minutes.
Apparently there were black women and alien stormtroopers in the movies no one has seen before.
It's going to take until the end of next year for the game to have as many levels as it's predecessors. The game is a technical marvel so it's going to take fuckall long time to get anything done. We don't know if they're even going to make anything new, just copy paste everything from the movies which they're already 9/10s of the way done. This is further clear and more evident when the first new heroes introduced are Greedo and whoeverthefuckthatis Sulustian co-pilot Lando had in RotJ. You wanted Chewbacca or Lando or Ben-Kenobi? Well shit we can't reuse the present resources for them so let's go with the former two and expect the most sub-standard approval.

refunded it after a day
honestly surprised EA allows it on origin with as many pieces of shit they release
$60 DLC paywall holding 80% of the content that should've been in the base game
I wanted to, I really do, but it's dead as hell on PC and it's just not satisfying to play.
I'm just waiting until they release the ultimate edition or whatever, hopefully more changes like adding the roll will come.
Just has that Diablo 3 thing going on, garbage at release but might be good later? No clue, but I'm hoping it improves as I'd love a new proper Star Wars game.

Have you played the game Anon? You can't be an alien stormtrooper and you don't get killstreaks. You find random pickups scattered around the map instead. It is lame though that there is no real variety, was a little excited they finally added an actual sniper rifle.
>Only headshots are lethal
>Gun needs to be cooled after one shot
>mfw enemies health regens by the time you cool it

>>332484086
It's a cycler rifle with a better fire-rate and a laser instead of slug
I guess that was the only way they could balance it.

>>332483498
Hot damn thats cool
The one good thing about this game is the visuals and sound. I guess when you spend two years making something look good, it tends to look good.
>>332484326
They could have just made it a regular sniper rifle like in any other game. Just give it a few more shots before having to do that awfully long "reload"
>>332484883
>two shot kill, one if headshot
>can fire it a couple of times
But then how would they balance that? Everyone would be sniping all the time, and then it would get nerfed to be a worse T-21B
THEY'RE LOSING REINFORCEMENTS

No, but I do still play Battlefront 2. I have 190 hours now.
It's a lot of fun trying out different mods and maps, they more than triple the content of the game.
>>332486837
how is there already a Battlefront 2 if they just released the first one??

Instant revenge kills are great when they happen. The only ones that suck are when you both got your shots off at the same time and you both die. That happens way too often for some reason.
>>332485902
There's no voice when the new heroes spawn in.
>>332486905
Isn't it a little too late for you to be posting with school tomorrow?
>>332485996
Same here.
SSB's should have been the first CIS unique unit, and Magna Guards should have been a special unit that was only playable when Grevious was spawned.
>>332484437
They made a change so now you drop your grenade when you die, instead of it just vanishing. It's something.
>>332485339
Good point
I guess this game really is shit and so are the players that do play it.I played it today

>>332484086
Use the cooling cell star card. The only problem is you're going to spend a shitload on charges and you're probably just better off going with a better loadout with one of the sniper star cards. Cycler Rifle is great now that shields got buffed. Plus it kills idiots who don't move from far away and can ohko like the jawa blaster at close range. Even if you miss the headshot, you still have your primary to get that final shot. The sniper primary weapon lacks that option.
>>332476410
No, because i have Battlefront 2
A open world (with pvp) Star Wars game with BF graphics would be GOTY
>>332476410
yes, I enjoy the gameplay a lot but I lose interest quickly because the game is constantly putting me with the losing team, even if there's space for me and another person I still end up on the losing side.
I can let it slide when it happens every now and then but Every Single Time I play this game I have to suffer through this for 1 hour until I finally get in a good team or all the shit people have left and the game has decided to finally let in good players on our side.
This is one of the reasons I still enjoy playing Battlefield games over other mainstream shooters, because it lets you switch teams.
>>332487285
The real problem with it is that there's no sidearms. With the cycler rifle you get to bring an actual weapon.
So you HAVE to take the scout pistol if you're using it.
>>332487806
maybe you should try the console version then since there's only 10 people playing on PC
>>332487534
That's the problem though. I just wanna chill in the back as a scout trooper picking off rebel scum on my own accord.
Kinda like when you find that comfy spot in Caspian Border BF3 and just chill with your rifle and some bros in the chat.
>>332487806
>get put on a team with only 2 players
>other team has like 8
>new players are added to the team with more
Whoever designed the matchmaking for Battlefront deserves to never work again.

My only hope is that they'll use the sick graphics on games that actuall have real development time.
>>332488192

>No Clone Wars content
>No plans for Clone Wars DLC
it failed from the beginning
>>332476410
I dont have it yet but played the beat it was fun. I plan on getting it one day.
it's like all the shit they learned from fixing bf4 went out the window, even stuff that's been a standard for BF already.
Like for example, in 4 you can't spawn on a squadmate when he's in action, cool I get it, I have visual feedback that he's in action so I can choose to wait or spawn on a flag
In SWBF you can't see if your partner is in action or not and if I should wait or not, you just have to wait like an idiot to hopefully see if his name can be highlighted or scroll through all the players to see what's happening.
I can pick this game apart all day not just blindly bash it. I do enjoy this game but there are so many head scratching game development decisions made for this game that frustrates me because I enjoy this game, I know dice can make good games despite what /v/ thinks because they can shine at times even in mess ups like bf4 launch, but they somehow keep fucking up, I want to just blame it on EA but at some point the blame has to go to the developer as well, wtf happened in that studio to make them fuck up this bad, they are clearly passionate about star wars with all the ridiculous detail this game has, so wtf.
Can I get this for cheap?
>>332476410
I stopped playing after the beta because it was a bad game
>>332489473

>gameplay are GOAT

proof that your opinions are wrong and shouldnt be trusted
>>332489403
>>332489341
It's because EA got the rights, and then had two years to make the game to cash in on movie hype.
They made the game look good, and then function. The actual gameplay got thrown to the wayside because they didn't have time for it.
>>332489403
>it's like all the shit they learned from fixing bf4 went out the window
This fucking kills me. Time after time it's like DICE has to relearn how to make an okay game all over again. I particularly LOVED watching the chat window and features evolve over the lifespan of Bad Company 2, finally settle on a nice place, and then when Battlefield 3 came out they had to learn it all over again. Okay, surely Battlefield 4 will be fine on launch.... NOPE. Chat window and settings are fucking garbage again, big surprise. How does one company consistently fuck up something as basic as a chat window, 3 fucking times in a row?
I bought it, got to max level and enjoyed my time with it. but I did get bored playing the same maps and same few game modes ( as all the other modes are dead.) so i'm done with it. Also nobody plays anymore. If the DLC was free i'd consider installing it again.
not only is the 50$ dlc a huge turn off but it splits the community. it's the same problem battlefield has always had, all the way back to 1942. I bought the secret weapons of world war expansion but I never got to play any of the maps since only a very small fraction of the already small community owned it, so no servers actually ran it. i'm sure battlefront is the same. of the 5k people who still play only a small margin of them actually own the dlc content so buying it myself is risky as it is very well possible that i will hardly ever get to actually use it.
>>332489520
Still ~$20 more expensive than the PC version off keysites.Still 100% not worth buying
>>332489812
>buying a game on a system where nobody plays it because it's cheaper
and /v/ calls other people Jews
>>332476410
Holy shit I forgot I had this game
>>332476410
No. Theres no progression and the gameplay has the depth of a puddle. Looks amazing though. I wish it was good.
>>332489580
Buy a Xim 4 adapter. It lets you use a keyboard and mouse on console for any game, plus you can change the controls around. Only problem is that it is a bit high in price.
You haven't lived til you've wrecked the enemy team, heroes, and vehicles as Nien Nub and spam his up emote to laugh at their faces. "Heh-heh-heh-heh-heh" love doing that as people try foolishly to rush a fully upgraded turret.
>>332490524
It's funny how the lightsaber users are actually the least useful heroes
They had no idea what to actually give the gun users to make people want to play them, so they became way too powerful.
It's nice that they buffed Vader so he's better though, he used to be the worst hero.
>>332476410
In the hope that one day the devs will listen to me and add more nohud options so it can feel more genuinely like star wars :C
no one will listen even dennis on twitter
>>332492783
I'd play a nohud first person only mode.
Would be fun for the immershun

Nien Nunb is a little fucker, in both small maps and big game modes.

It's amazing how much the throw range for tripmines affects how good they are

Always gets top 3 its fun wrecking shitty casuals, so yes I do
>>332493539
My main problem with the speeders is spawn points.
They're awful and behind the infantry spawns most of the time.
The other problem is, of course, that the physics on them are fucked up like crazy. But I can at least work around that.

Don't have season pass but does greedo have low health? I always fuck him up with other heroes his health depletes so fast
>>332494845
He's just not good against heros
He's amazing at killing infantry, that's his role
>>332494771

Shit gets super fucking crazy, lightsabers flying around everywhere and force lighting enough to light a small country
I have 80+ hours on it, in all honesty the only thing pulling me back in is the fact that its Star Wars and I'm really good at it. I can understand the hate for the game though.
>>332495486

>>332494845
He's pretty balanced, he doesn't have a whole lot of health at all, but he's pretty deadly. If he got a health buff he might start getting too good. His speed should help keep him out of trouble.
>>332489736
EA game development staff is a revolving door.
Battlefield loses features with each game, they only clumsily add features back if people get pissed about it.
Naval fleet battles haven't been a thing since the first game.
BC1 and 2 were literally like 1/4th of the content of PC Battlefields.
>>332476410
I never bought the game in the first place because it looked like boring game with shit gameplay
>>332497987
I never bought this game because only an absolute idiot would buy from EA in this day and age.
This should be common knowledge on /v/, yet this thread is still full of faggots who gave EA their money.
I'm convinced if the rebels are trash in walker assault on one uplink they get y-wings faster for the next uplink.
