There's a good chance it won't. Seems they had a hard enough time with planetary flight controls as it is.

That wasn't the reason they closed down their video game division, it was because they shat on the bed with Disney Infinity after pouring $147m on it.

I'd be surprised if they actually fix anything from BF1, and it's not a glorified map pack

even EA would be better than the utter trash activision's been putting out for the past decade, but mostly they've been ignoring marvel outside of phone games

After three games they might have just enough content to be worth a $40 price tag

I thought they would just put out the rest of the game in their DLC and charge it for the price of another game. I guess this achieves the same thing.

You want to know how much they got in revenue from it?

$1.2 billion

They saw a 2% decrease in sales. They're shutting it down over 2%.

How the fuck?

I thought that game would die, it was so casual and shallow.

I imagine it is dead. But it also sold well initially, and a sequel would be little more than a map pack, so it's probably a no brainer.

Speaking as a Star Trek fan, in fairness Star Wars get better games.

And this is because Star Trek games suck at having you do something called "science and discovery". All you do in a Star Trek game is shoot shit and fly around.

Why haven't people come to accept what has happened to video games in the tail-end of the 7th generation of consoles. This is not unusual, this is the norm for the 8th generation, and it is going to continue to be the norm as long as there are EA, Activision-Blizzard, Bethesda-Max, and Valve (regrettably) consumers who will buy whatever their beloved brands tell them to. Why do you think Star Wars Battlefront sold so spectacularly, in spite of less longevity than the average terminal cancer patient? Why do you think Fallout 4 was a massive success, regardless of its inferiority to previous iterations in the series and its painful disregard for the RPG genre?

It's all marketing, marketing hype, and brand recognition. True, there are people that care about a quality product that meets or exceeds the standards set in the past by its predecessors, but they are outnumbered by people who have more purchasing power.

Even AAA producers do not need to release high-profile games in a finished state, because:
>Patching and its ubiquity
>Early access and Kickstarter
>The public's acceptance of this practice
Have all ensured that there is no need to finish their products, because people will but them regardless.

Anyone who did not anticipate Star Wars Battlefront being a semi-annual, if not annual, series is out-of-touch with the late capitalist world in which we live. Of course it was being resurrected in Frankenstein-form only to tie in with the new films on an annual basis. That is F R E E M O N E Y.

I only feel like one of the major things holding this Battlefront back is that the content is strictly based around everything in the movies and only what was in them.

They never bothered making anything like Rebel ground vehicles because there was no such thing in the movies.

But I think this new one will have a better chance of adding more stuff since it has a more fresh source material.

I don't even know why would you want Force Awakened planets

Then just some snow planet with the Star Killer base

"Battlefront" cannot be saved if basic gameplay decisions stay the same. Like vehicles on powerups, or how levels are designed to be tiny and straightforward. The speeder vehicle is so useless on Endor.

They'll save space battles for their Rogue Squadron reboot that's tied to the Rogue One movie

Then they can sell 2 games for 60$+dlc as opposed to just one

>>337285505
Not annual. It's more like a way to get people to buy another game that has content of the new movies instead of just making an expansion to the original game. I place my bets that Battlefront II will play identical to Battlefront I except with First Order v. Rebels instead of the Empire.
>>
>>337295549
He's right though, EA Battlefront was a gigantic cashgrab and is an insult to the series. The gameplay and content are fucking terrible even compared to an 11 year old game and worst of all it doesn't even have new film content much less prequel trilogy content.
