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

[Brazo]

Heroes and villains lag fest appears to be fixed now, not that it slowed my 1080 but it did slow my 1060.

Finally got to level 50 so I can be a shiny black storm trooper!

Anyone bothering to get the Death Star DLC when in comes out in the 20th?

I have not bothered with the others but going to give this one a go.

 

[V_R]

That trailer makes it looks so much better than it will be....

But as someone that (regrettably) owns the season pass, I'll give it a go. I don't think I've played Bespin yet...

Nope - game has/had so much potential but I'd be very surprised if the gameplay of the Death Start DLC kept me interested beyond a couple of days. It'll be all initial gimmicks and insipid long term.

Lol so much for EA/DICE saying that they hadn't cut out space battles from the base game for DLC purposes...

Yup, always the same old with trailers these days.

I have played the other DLC packs through the free weekend trials and the maps + game modes are ****ing awful, much like most, if not all DLC packs these days.

I just wish someone would do a proper, modern sequel to X-Wing/TIE Fighter. No one seems to think it'll work but done right it would sell.

So much this. Being an XvT veteran, I just can't get excited about all these arcadey xwing games they've come out with over the years. Just imagine a modern XvT paired up with VR... I can dream.

Yup I have the season pass and can't wait! As a controller user the Death Star mode fly-fight-fly definitely appeals.

I wasn't fussed on the outer rim dlc but have put plenty of time into bespin. I love the sabotage game mode.

That trailer makes me want it to be the 20th NOW!. But, as has been said, will it only bring disappointment and regret over what it could have been?

Just played one game of the new DS level. Defend Star Destroyers against attack. Great fun whizzing around in space blowing up rebel scum!

Just tried the code - still asking for £39.99 right up to asking me to confirm where Paypal will take the funds from. Don't think I can go any further so I guess they have pulled the code?...

Edit: SCRUB THAT. Has to scroll down to hit the submit button after entering the code. It's still valid.

Blast in the Death Star is great fun. The only problem is that I keeping stopping to admire the detail of the base and the get shot!

 

[Tek81]

Sooooooo tempted to buy this, but I'm not sure if I can tolerate another pvp type game. Is it worth it for bot mode alone?

 

[Choimaloy75]

Hadn't had chance to play yet so how's it shaping up guys.

It's ok but it gets repetitive really fast.

Graphics inside the death star are excellent though.

Nope.
