I also don't get the hysteria over single player content. Who cares? No one played the campaign in BF4 and EA knows this. They have the data to support their decision.

Also, campaigns in Cod are also becoming watered down, each iteration featuring a weaker and bland story. Eventually Cod will just become MP only.

Can this pointless whining stop? If you want a SP FPS then go buy Fallout 4. There will probably be another Bioshock in the future as well.

Shooters are for MP. Get over it.

the content kills it for me, i already done with the game and the movie.

1. more free maps ( NO F** Season Pass, every MP Game has this problem, they should bring free maps until 2016 and then maybe they could bring DLCs after 1 Year or a complete Edition )

2. NO Coin Collection!!! We want two Bases with vehicles and aircrafts, REALLY ANNOYING!! In Every Battlefield they did it right, who doesnt want to sit on a speeder bike with a friend? 

3. Space Battles, you start on your planet and fly into the space and fight there or in front of a stardestroyer. LIKE NO MANS SKY

4. Clone Wars with VEHICLES from THE BASE and not FROM F*ING COINS

5. MODE - POD RACING!!! Like a Racing Game, imagine 12 Pod Racer on maps like the good old days on N64, when i drive the speederbike i thought about it. That would be amazing.
More maps for every gamemode, and more content that would be a must buy game, graphic and sound are superb.

Fact of the matter is CoD is still the biggest selling FPS game, ever, and they still make an effort to put in a SP campaign. Why would they do that if they thought the games would sell as well and be more profitable without it? Activision and it's CoD minion studios know that an SP campaign helps with sales.

Oh yeah COD still manages to throw one in but each time the games are still remembered and played far more for their MP than their SP and at times their SP is mostly small and takes little effort/time to complete.

If anything EA should do a Star Wars Rebels game since that's Disney's latest SW animated series that actually followings through from the Galactic Empire's early days with Vader present for the first animated series for him to appear in (in current times not accounting for flashbacks or visions), he also has a batch of Inquisitors to do his work hunting the Rebel cast of the series, I game with a focus on that could suffice easily.


Apparently Amy henning who left naughty dog and jade redmond former assassins creed are working on a single player campaign star wars game.  It's influenced by uncharted so that's probably our best bet. 

 

You'd imagine that is planned for release next November and they'll be looking to do battlefront 2 for Xmas 2017. Oh and the game I mentioned is developed by visceral.  Hopefully they incorporate online Co op and standard multiplayer but keep the focus on the campaign.

If you battlefield then stick with battlefield 4. They have created the most realistic star wars yet.  The fighter battles they have are insane and would be much better then fighting in space.  In space you'd have your ship and everyone flying around in the dark. The planet is way better because you have an awesome planet with canyons,  clouds and the battle you can see.  

 

Sounds like you just spammed Walker assault or supremacy over and over.  You should do the challenges,  go for the trophies, play all game modes and do the survival Co op. Mix it up basically and the challenges and trophies will cause you to Tey out many unique weapons and approaches you other wise would try.  

 

They did and awesome job and provided quality over quantity.  Free planet coming in a few days with 4 new maps.  I love it.

Thank you for your response. Im Glad to hear about the new games and Battlefront 2 (2017), with more maps and more content it would be amazing. yeah i understand now the opposite, i think its a good game, but it could be better. glad to hear about the new maps, thats what i am talking about. i like it when games are like fallout 4 and you can play the hell out of it, like fifa or cod for example. i think i played star wars a little bit to much and always the same maps. its like bf4 the normal version without season pass, gets oldm really fast.

72 metacritic... Pretty disappointing. Glad that EA is getting punished for putting out what is essentially a $60+ beta. I usually purchase every major PS4 title but will be skipping this one.

Yeah well said.  It could be better but if they went for quantity they could have fucked it up. Think of it like titanfall and destiny.  Both solid starts in a new franchise.  I expect a lot of things from each of the 3 sequels to these games.  The same quality but much expanded content.  They've no excuse the second time around.

Single player modes for fps competitive games are pretty much dying. People usually just play the multiplayer and skip over the single player.

Halo and Call Of Duty still continue to have full fledged campaigns

Yes, but they aren't getting the same attention as they once did. They are focus more towards multiplayer.
