I have not played a video game in years, but this game might ruin that.

It's the fucking shit. I had not touched my system in a long time, but holy hell this game is the cats pajamas. Bought a ps4 for it. Get it.

it's pretty great. the only thing i'm disappointed about is there's no campaign. you're either doing instant-action type battles with AI or you're in a lobby with 80 people.

I played the bata it was good, but if it was only that I'd get sick of it real fast. I remember like 8 years ago the older one for ps3 I loved that game.

There's a lot of stuff that the beta didn't include, and apparently the results of the beta had a lot of effect on the balancing of the final game.

Don't buy it. At least not now. It is extremely pretty and immerses you, but this wears off after like 5 hours. There's not very many maps, boring character customisation, and only 2-3 game modes which are worth it. It's EXTREMELY repetitive. It honestly feels like they cut out half the content to sell it as dlc later (seasons pass is an extra $50). Knowing EA they probably did too.

TLDR version
Very pretty battlefield demo reskinned as battlefront, nothing like the old games

Yeah what I think they should've done was include the clone wars cause that would've added a ton of new stuff. Fallout 4 on the other hand has a ton of content and is well worth the money.

yeah, I heard that its not worth the $60 since there is not enough content and you're gonna have to buy the DLCs

It sucks that they release games half finished and then charge you for the rest of it i.e. DLC. Battlefront 2 will never be beaten. Games suck now, you have to pay like 100+ to play the game as it should have been at release.

A 14ish year old boy threw a temper tantrum today when I told him we were sold out of it. So I'm going to assume it is pretty good.

I got it and it's pretty good. Really similar to battlefield but that's not that bad to me as I haven't really played battlefield that much

On a related note, here is one of my roommates thinking he's being super anonymous complaining about our other roommate.


I think the weed is getting to him.
