Forums - Gaming - Star Wars Battlefront Dev: We're Not Delaying Content for DLC

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


Will be interesting to see how long they support the game with post launch content versus releasing a completely new entry.

nono, we didnt cut the modsupport because we are evil, and 40 player matches are fine, so console gamers cant cry. yes we love star trek too, thats why we wanted this epic battle with AT-ATs on planet elsa, but making big things is hard so we set it on rails its a AT-AT train now.
and we dont understand, we didnt cut the campaign! we cut galatic conquest...
so go on, preorder, buy the season pass, 100$ for a cut down game is fine...

Ik right?!  I also love how people are complaining there is no SP campaign when the other ones effectively had none as well.

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 expect space battle DLC, but I really doubt we will get and prequel stuff.  They want to forget it ever happened, and frankly the focus of this game is the good timeline.



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

40 players is plenty, and newsflash this isnt a bot game anymore.  It's 2015 and we all can play online now.  Do you really want the AT-AT which is the objective of the match to depend on one driver?  So you want one guy to be able to F over his whole team?

40 players is 24 less than the last game had. and bots are fine if your server isnt that full of players or if you ust wanna play with some firends against an army of bots.  and yes i want it to depend on the driver and the gunner, makes the game more complex and you dont have to play with randoms if you dont wanna play with em, just kick em from the server. (and thats from a guy who fucked over his team time and time again in BF and Battlefront with flying way to risky and crashing important tanks.)

So no space battles, no single player campaign and dlc announced before the game even drops? This is some bullshit.

The only DLC announced is free and is arriving as soon as its finished.

I don't see why not? They know we didn't love it in general, but the Clone Wars TV series is well loved and there's loads of content there that would be great in Battlefront
