SW Battlefront
It would have been better to try the BETA first. I don’t have 60 euros left to buy you a copy, sorry.
I believe if there was an additional copy available, they would list it on G2A for around 40 euros plus a 50 euro markup.
Eh, true. Lot's of copies being given away on Twitter - maybe someone snagged several.
It’s not exactly what you expect. They’re adding new maps and modes, plus paid upgrades, but the overall experience still feels lacking. Bad Company 2 didn’t offer much extra content either, though its polished map design was impressive. Battlefield 4 had a lot of maps that weren’t great, requiring over a year of testing to make half the modes workable. Rush remains unappealing since the maps aren’t suited for it. In Battlefront, the gameplay and balance are solid, but the flight mechanics need tweaks. Overall, I’d prefer a game with less content but polished, bug-free performance—something that’s been stable for years after major updates.
It lacks originality. The maps and options aren’t impressive, and even the one decent mode feels unbalanced. Dogfighting is overly simplistic, relying only on key presses for maneuvers. The experience quickly becomes monotonous. Collaboration rarely matters. Characters can easily overpower multiple opponents before being defeated, and when you’re targeted, it’s like running for cover if a hero approaches. The graphics and audio are strong, but without engaging gameplay, they fall flat. The pricey season pass and deluxe version seem excessive for basic icons and quick weapon access. Overall, it feels like a generic, repetitive shooter. Not to mention the high cost of the deluxe edition compared to what you’d expect for such features. Poor design choices make it stand out negatively.
In contrast, other titles offer better teamwork, dynamic environments, varied classes, and rewarding cooperative play. The single-player mode was solid, and the game’s overall feel is more rewarding than this experience.
Looking ahead, I’m eager to see how EA develops future entries in this series.
