**** Star Wars: Battlefront ****

Good call, only the second person I've ever blocked, and the other one got unblocked.

Was that me? :D

I've already voiced my feelings on this game, but unlike Fallout 4 I've yet to play the full game. Which will be done when it's cheap as.......

I wouldn't spend any more than £15 on this game

Nope wasnt you :D was someone years ago who posted the same game every day for months in the screenshot thread.
 
i guess it definitely a marmite thing...generally im hardcore shooter fan, but this is so much fun. I've not played many games that are arcadey shooters, but for me this is a refreshing change, so many lolz playing it.

Great games of Cargo, Drop Zone and Droid Run tonight with Hazard, Flash and BG :

It was fun, I was getting a bit frustrated here and there though, I seemed to go through phases of not being able to hit anyone and then going on a rampage. (The rage was strong!) I need more practice. Up for more this evening if anyone else is.

Yea i played few hours late last night... It is good fun.. Loving the air combat had some sick dogfights with some guy who was a dfer in bf3 last night.. Took me a while to get used to controls tho.. And binding space to pitchup again is pretty handy for evading missle lock when ya countermeaures are on cooldown...

Dem imperials won't know what's hit em when Westie takes to the sky! :D
 
Well I enjoyed all 45 mins I got to play on Sunday night before being knocked off my bike on Monday morning. Broken bone in my left thumb/wrist. Hope some of you guys will still be playing when it's better after CHRISTMAS !!!!!!

Get well soon. My mates and I are definitely sticking with it for at least another month or two. Don't worry about the naysayers. There's more people enjoying it than not.

I'm on now mate :)
 
What was interesting was that i figured out last night that tap firing let's you keep dead on accuracy with no recoil, much better than holding down the button and you can still keep a decent rate of fire with the default type blasters.
 
Having a lot of fun, starting to master the flying (flying slowly to mow infantry down) and got most kills (52) in one match.

The endor map is tricky and I'm learning my way round it slowly.
 
My advice to anyone on the fence about buying

ignore most of the negative drivvel people harp on about in this thread.

if you want a star wars based game which has a more arcadie feel but is a game you can jump in blast a few guys then log off just in time for dinner

then you should in all intensive purposes enjoy this game like i am..
 
Get well soon to the man who took a knock!

But after a few hours tonight, it feels just like mindless fun really. It doesn't feel like I am making any great tactical plays (see a bunch of enemies? throw a grenade. Don't run out in the open etc), or out skilling someone in terms of shooting.

I find it quite amusing / challenging to sneak through the trees in Endor, being somewhat camouflaged to the environment and start a flank attack on the walker or the shock troopers. If you ever get pushed back to the last two comm links there's a good flanking route down past the sea/ lake.

I understand there are some serious flaws to this game (lack of squads / VOIP / matchmaking / Server Browser / grenade spam to name a few). However I haven't played a game since GTA where I am glued to the screen, happy for the rounds to roll on, laughing at the rag doll effects of soldiers and laser booms.

Ruled the skies (for roughly 4 minutes :p) with the A wing last night and one ally. I do think the air vehicle spawns should be protected somehow, players spawning are highlights and can be shot, even before they take control. Which is utter tosh.
