just had a very enjoyable game, only ended up with 29 kills and 15 deaths but was really fun, ive only just started to be able to have cards and upgrade my weapons lol I'm noob level 4 at the moment, using keyboard and mouse is great on this game although using the cards is a bit tricky but as usual aiming etc is spot on, think I'm going to buy the season pass next week so can play the other maps

Due to the pace of this game I had to get a mouse with configurable buttons so star cards were there at fingertips.

Has to be said, the game looks very good too. And works well - no performance problems for once yay!

Only early on (had SWBF since release), did I have issue with snow maps where there were missing textures.

Very late to the party but man this game is fun to play

maybe it's just the theme that gets me but I'm having a blast! I haven't got the DLC yet, might buy if it comes down pretty cheap.

Anyone still play? Add me on Origin: Spacedeck

Just noticed SW is back on sale on Origin. Can anyone check if the DLC is populated for me before I buy the season pass? Don't want to waste my money on empty servers. My main game mode is Walker Assault and Battlefront is currently my go to game.

Yeah, I already had the standard edition through Origin Access. I did buy the Ult Ed though, so now I actually own the game with all DLC. Happy to say I still find full games on the DLC maps.

Bought the Ultimate Edition for my son so we can play together.

Thinking of picking this up at £9 currently. Does this game have a server browser or just matchmaking? also how long does it take, my friend seems to think its dead (not that he owns the game) so looking for answers from someone who owns it.

Match making (still dedicated servers)

I only play walker assault (the main game mode) and it doesn't take long to find a game at all, less than 30 seconds.

DLC wise though, dead big time, even with the free trial at the weekend there, a lot of the time I was getting put into dead lobbies or it took a good couple of minutes to find a mostly full server.

well I have been playing over the weekend on the dlc maps and it packed lol always got into a full game very quickly?

this is currently £4.16 on Origin for the Ultimate edition. is it worth that just to have a go? i tried the beta but never bought in to the final product. i just wonder, as with most EA games, a small player base is stretched across the main game and optional DLC maps.

I signed up to Origin access last month to try it along with Titanfall 2. I've played it about 3 times, it's not for me, rather bland to be honest. Titanfall 2 however is amazing.
Hoping II will be better.

I actually find it a really fun game, I am a BIG starwars fan though, I'm not sure I would buy it now though with battlefront 2 so close to release

Picked it up on the 4 quid deal.
Beautiful game, but damn, those controls take some getting used to.
Not sure if I'll stick with it, wish I could get my 4 quid back

You can remap the buttons in settings. I did as I hated having to press the number keys instead of every other free key around me.

I'm pretty excited for Battlefront II, although I really wish they's have gone for an "Imperial Commando" campaign. Not saying the current campaign looks bad, it doesn't, I'm still looking forward to it. I've been jonesing for the promised sequel to Republic Commando for years.

foster grant · 22 Aug 2017 at 16:03

I'm also looking forward to BF11 , and with any luck those fighters are easier to fly

hux · 22 Aug 2017 at 19:39

Well now I'm entering the fray, who can say no to ultimate edition for £4.16 I kid you not.

pooley · 22 Aug 2017 at 21:26

me too

kinger8938 · 23 Aug 2017 at 14:51

Those jumping in now, are you finding full games easily? The pc player count is concerning especially split across all the DLC maps etc
