Star Wars Battlefront 2015

Post Reply New Topic

How Many of you folks out their are looking forward to the new Star Wars game that is coming out later this year? Thoughts, & opinions would be great.

Thanks

I will deffo be buying it, most likely on the ps4 as that's what most of my friends own. I hope they have the Galactic Conquest mode the previous games had, i spent the most time playing that mode, i loved it.

Im looking forward to seeing some gameplay or just the visual engine, i know there releasing some info and vids next week.

asa huge star wars fan i'm really looking forward to this game, anyone buying this for ps4 hit me up!

I plan on Gamefly'ing it, never played a Battlefront before and not a fan of the Battlefield franchise ( EA Dice is developing the game, the same guys who do the Battlefield series )

Have high hopes for the new game. Still play the second one on PC just because of all the downloadable maps that are still out there, good times

I'm not getting my hopes up too much on this one. Not getting hopes up much AT ALL, actually. This is EA we're talking about. When was the last time they DIDNT screw something up? Let's see... there was the utter disaster that was Simcity 2013, there's Sims 4, which pretty much embodies "lack of features so we can sell them to you later", and recently Battlefield Hardline, which seems to get a universal "It's practically just a mod, why am I paying for this?" from most players.

I'll be honest, I'm expecting this one to crash and burn when it releases... but it'd be nice if this time it DOESNT suck. But with EA at the helm... there's a good chance it will.

Definitely going to pre-order it!

Oh, I loved Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2 when I had them for my old PS2. I lost them when the PS2 died. Afterwards, I largely retired from video games and stuck to what I was able to get with my Wii, which, unfortunately, didn't include Battlefront.

I hope this game is fun.

I've been looking forward to a Star Wars: Battlefront 3 for many years, as soon as I heard pre-orders opened up I snatched up my copy, I can't wait! I've played SWB 1 & 2 like 10 years ago, I was 12 then......I'm turning 22 in two weeks, damn I'm starting to feel old lol! Anyways it really sucks that it doesn't have a single player campaign or space battles but it still could be good, you can still fly in space ships in the sky at least.

From what I've heard, it'll lack even more features than WWE 2K15, so no thanks.

That doesn't mean it won't be fun, it's Star Wars.

I know right! It's STAR WARS!

Truthfully this game is the main reason I bought a PS4 in the first place. But now as more and more details are being released I have this sense of dread that I cannot shake..like a million voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Battlefront 2 is one of my favorite games, I still load it up pretty much once a week and play against bots in instant action. When a new game was announced I thought they'd build on Battlefront 2 and make a truly next gen battlefront. But then it is announced there will be no campaign, no space battles, no galactic conquest and only 4 maps(this one may not be entirely accurate and seems to differ depending on what site you are on). I worry there will be no real content for those who prefer playing alone and unless you play online then it will not be worth buying.

But, having not actually seen any gameplay yet I am trying to keep an open mind and not jump to conclusions. The singleplayer portions of the game could be amazing and you never know, it could be the best Star Wars game ever made! Looking forward to more info from E3.

I've noticed today on Amazon that the PS4 and Xbox One versions of SWB are completely sold out, PC version is still in stock though. This game is going to sell a lot especially since it's being launched close to the movie.

Yep. Willing to bet that it's missing a TON of stuff, is shallow, and STUFFED with microtransactions.

This is EA. The last few major games they've put out have been disappointments. Let's see... there's Simcity 2013, which is *AWFUL*, and utterly, completely, and in every possible way outdone by Cities: Skylines (put out by an indie developer!), there's the Sims 4, which has.... hardly any features, alot of stuff (like the open, go anywhere sort of world) outright removed that was in number 3, and the very, very obvious plan of releasing about 8 billion expansion packs (this has already begun) to fill in *some* of the missing content. Then there's also Battlefield Hardline, which many say "this is pretty much just a mod, why did I pay for this?".

Really, that everyone keeps diving into EA purchases after every monstrous disappointment they put out baffles me. They've become outright infamous for this. I keep warning friends to ***NOT*** pre-order Star Wars Battlefront, and to in fact wait till a bit after release to see how much of a disaster it turns out to be, BEFORE buying it (and then whining about it later). They wont listen of course. And then I'll hear the whining later.

....and laugh at them. Often.

The last recorded revenue EA made in 2013 was $3.797 Billion, I don't believe EA is so bad. In the end EA is a business so I understand their practices and I don't mind paying for DLC since I can afford it. And I happen to like their games.
