Well i kinda expected this. I'd rather have a new Star wars game, than this Battlefield 4 multiplayer skin....


I have BF4. And FWIW this game does not feel much like that. Yes it has maps with large numbers versus large numbers but it does not feel like BF much at all. If the game were not made by DICE 95% of these people saying it was BF4 reskinned would not be making that connection at all.

Played for 4 hours and having a blast with it. I had BF4 and in no way does it feel or seem like that game. If the fun holds up over time, I will be a happy gamer.



  Tifa got MOVES!

Not a bad score considering its ea and online only and the first entry. Here's hoping they include a single player campaign for the sequel with space battles along the lines of the old GameCube Star Wars games.


So was Titanfall

that was an exclusive game. Exclusive games get a strange sort of weird hype for them. If Star Wars Battlefront was exclusive to PS4 or XB1 it would be heralded is one of the greatest gaming experiances in the history of mankind.

Titanfall was on PC, 360 and Xbox One though. Same amount of platforms as battlefront.

Let me explain what i was thinking. I meant that it is made on the same gameplay principle: huge multiplayer maps filled with 40 players. Just like Hardline's multi. Also the content is lacking in this one



It´s to easy and to shallow.

I still have 5 hours to go for my EA Access and I feel I´ve already done and seen every thing the game has to offers. Since my fist matches I was blasting 2/1 KD.

Visualy the environment are fantastic, however the character models are way below curent gen best efforts.



Doesn't the game have like 11 weapons?

I am not sure the content itself is really lacking. Its the progression that seems limited. It all comes down to the upgrade system, and even though I am just level 8 I can tell its not going to have the same addictive quality that CoD used to have for me.

But my main point is, the game is fun. Just don't go into expecting it to last you 5 months. I think it will last me 2-3 weeks or so at 1st, but I will definitly come back for major DLC.

It seems simple to me really. They are not targeting hardcore FPS players. They know they are still playing BF4, COD, or Halo. They are targeting a more broad audience. When the game is reviewed like a hardcore FPS it wont stand up well. But for a person who only has limited time to play games (and like SW) this game is going to be amazing for them.
