I really like the game myself but can't help thinking I would get bored very quickly. Hope there is a shed load of unlocks and customisation to hold my interest.

I would really like it if there were ZERO unlocks, and it was a game I could pick up and enjoy without having to sink hundreds of hours into to get access to all the gear. Not the done thing these days though :/

I really enjoyed the first two games I played. After a couple more the game seemed quite repetitive. I think I'll enjoy the beta but I won't be buying.

mildly enjoyable, very repetitive, hugely imbalanced, visually ok, incredibly overpriced. think this will go down as thanks but no thanks, especially with better games on the horizon.

Very repetitive but a lot of fun, once the novelty wares off though i expect it will be quite boring

Not to bad, Finally won my first game of Drop zone, one match it was me and another player against 6 lol.

Looks nice and runs well but think I'll wait reviews.

This is rather hilarious though....

I've had a quick go and like it so far.

That video is great

I just like something to aim for lol

I did like flying the xwings

Didn't like it initially, but getting used to it and have been enjoying it a lot. Will be getting it for sure. Looks like lots of game types too.

Managed to stop the AT-ATs earlier too. Rare to say the least!

Only thing that bothers me is the rocky map..very clunky to get around and feel like i'm getting caught on what should otherwise be flat surfaces.

Sound effects and music are amazing though.

That was a brilliant, truly made me laugh out loud.

Game is fun, probably more so for us who grew up with the original films. Iaid £35 for it so I don't care too much about how long it will last.

As soon as they do a deathstar dlc people will come running lol

So no parties in the beta? How do you play with friends in game? Or is this impossible in the current config?

Enjoying the game so far, actually prefer being the rebels rather than the imperial turkey shoot round.

Disappointed at no squads - this might actually stop me from buying the game

Frustrates me watching people not bothering with objectives or just shooting at the AT AT at the wrong time

I assume it's the same on X1 as I've only played it on PS4, but when on the main menu the party stuff is at the top. It uses the PS4's (and X1's?) party system for it's party stuff and if someone joins a game, everyone in the party on the main menu (or in a game?) get's an invite to join that server.

diddnt realize i could get demo until earlier,

Not played my xbox 1 in 6 months, and enjoying this, i mean its repetitive but then so is cod etc and this is just a small part of the game so its looking good.

I really cant fly though lol that's going to take some practice.

I just got that power today. Makes things so much easier once you can high jump. I'll be buying this on Xbox One instead of PC. I like sitting on my couch gaming with FPS rather then a pc chair.

New Assassins Creed 3rd person type of games I like on PC more.

Where did you get it for £35 ?

adam cool dude · 10 Oct 2015 at 23:51

Wow so much hype and yet very basic game play. No classes, a 1990's powerup collection system and No squads etc.

Thank god there is so much coming out this holiday season that it doesn't really matter. I had to do a double take and check DICE actually made this!

Pretty sure Disney had something to do with "making it for the masses".

byeo · 11 Oct 2015 at 10:50

Only played three rounds as I've only just downloaded it. It's really fun, no BS kill streaks or the like, no stupid pick 10 or whatever it's called. I'm not getting Black Ops 3 after playing the beta, I think I've found my alternative.

Got a £20 off £50 buy at Very. They sent them out quite a lot. So games cost £52, £20 off and £3 postage.

I think people are starting to understand the objectives now as we won every game as the rebels.

I just hope the other modes can make up for it, probably not.
