Doesn't mean I didn't want one!

But I'm just so happy that this game is actually getting made, they can screw me just a little bit if they want to. 

I just hope this doesn't end up like SSX. Really good in so many ways, but didn't work and no we have no chance of it ever coming back

 

Admitedly, I'd be very surprised if a prequel trilogy/Clone Wars DLC or expansion didn't show up at some point. I would also buy it in a heartbeat! Despite the obvious issues, the combat/military aspects of the prequels were very good (I'm really enjoying the Clone Wars TV show on Netlix at the moment)

I don't think they're screwing anyone over though. The game is forced to a deadline which may  annoy some, but they don't have to buy it at launch and can instead wait for the inevitable repackaging next fall. People forget that EA only aquired rights to the series in summer 2013, I'm sure work started before that but not much.

The thing with the prequel trilogy is that they've also got the new films to incoporate. I think they'll prioritise DLC from Episode VII+Rogue One over Episodes 1,2 &3. 

I don't think they are screwing me over, but my tolerance for them doing something like that is higher than normal

New trilogy films are probably "worth" a new release, whereas it may be best to launch the Clone Wars as DLC.

Possibly the same with Rouge One, which could just be a mission map pack? In fact, maybe bundle that with a space expansion pack to you can have dogfights around the Death Star.....

 

The thing that always amazed be about the lack of Battlefront III is that it seems perfect for new generation. It has such a huge scope for DLC. Just add in new campaigns and maps of various things and you can just keep selling more and more DLC
