It’s Time to Play Star Wars Battlefront II - MMORPG.com
With lootboxes long gone and some quiet, but determined, work on the game over the last two years, SWBF2 has never been more fun to play. To top things off, there’s some great stuff coming in the remaining months of the year that looks to improve the experience even further.

I tend to play it in spurts myself but I seem to be impressed with it every time I do.
Can you explain how? The game was a lot of fun for me. Excellent attention to SW detail. Multiplayer was pretty good, stable, and I had many epic battles on ground and some good dogfights in the sky. Did you suck at the game because most people that suck usually just come out and say the game is bad.
Nah. After co-op and Instant Action come online I'll consider SWBF2 the superior experience.
* Star Wars costumes design stuck in 70s. It's a disaster for futuristic setting - and looks ugly.
Thank you for your time!
I mean surprise mechanics so no amount of polish will make this turd of a game shine.
Playing: FFXIV
Future: wishing for SWG 2, World of Warcraft Classic
Played: Most current and extinct MMO's - 18 Years in....
Interesting Fact - I own 27 Tarantula's
...So Instant Action/Co-Op?
No, it absolutely does not. The only crates in the game are daily crates that give you credits just for logging in. Everything in the game is direct buy for credits or crystals, including skins, emotes, victory poses, etc.
*ba dum crash.*
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
No, it's the same campaign they've had since shortly after launch (base campaign + three extra chapters added for The Last Jedi). But the game is included with Origin Access or it can be picked up for $4.49 on Origin, so not exactly a wallet buster either way...
Ever since,all i have seen is an assumption developers are simply cashing in on the IP and not really giving me much of a game at all,yes that includes SOE's SWG.
This game has nice graphics,i really like the city looking map and Galactic Assault is exactly the type of game play i want,that epic wide open free for all type of combat.
However there are some peeves that never sit well with me and that is everything is just a robot or players.That is not the true spirit of a SW universe,i expect races and people to be there and living inside the city/world,not just spawning in for some DM type combat.
I also really get pissed when games utilize those immersion ruining markers,showing me the targets,that is NOT how to realistically implement the action. This is pretty much just empty worlds where a bunch of players and robots auto spawn in and that is not the feel i am looking for.I want that world to be a living world where we role play and live a life,more of a rpg experience than auto spawn in maps.
Yes Assault is great but has to be within a living world,not that spawn in and two sides face off,that is junk game play to me. Too bad because this is close to what i enjoy and expect,but yet again,done cheaply and done wrong by ruining immersion.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

Looks like it's $40 right now, not $5 (for Canada at least).
It's definitely $4.49 in the US Origin store. Looking at it right now. Can't speak for other regions. Sorry.
The SW IP isn't enough to make me stick to a Battlefield ripoff. I remember playing OG SW Battlefront on PSP in 2007 and it was a million times a better game. I think $7 dollars or less is a good price for any live service game that puts greedy monetization above all.
Wonder how granular the Origin store's regions are.
