Star Wars Battlefront - Official Thread

To be fair to EA/Origin, I checked out the Season Pass on the local ZA store and it's available there for just under R500. That equates to around $35 which is a damn sight more reasonable than the $50 they're asking for it overseas. Even cheaper than getting it off Greenman with a 20% discount code.

Still going to give the base game a couple of hours before committing to it though.

That's much better. Unfortunately I can't say the same for me on Xbox One. Can't find any retailers that sells the season pass, but it's available on the Xbox Store for $50....
 
The reviews are rolling in, and it's not looking too good for the game. it's currently sitting on a 73 Metacritic score, and user scores are dwindling down at 4.5

Here are two video reviews which I found to be the best discussions of the game:

I'm a bit hesitant, I've been at the point of buying the game 2 or 3 times now...but keep on hesitating.. game "looks" great, but, I'm not sure about the gameplay. I'll give it a week or so and see what the general feeling is then.
[MENTION=9789]DieGrootHammer[/MENTION] Thanks for vids, will watch them.
 
I'm ready to go! Now just waiting on the game to be delivered... Also i want to try some raiding in GW2 this weekend but with this around the corner i'm torn :cry:
 
Im just keen on this because Starwars...

The reviews are really killing it for me though... The Beta was loads of fun, I do feel that they need to address the replay-ability... The game at its core is a Starwars Unreal Tournament... If they dont get players coming back for more the game will flop hard...

I believe people will be playing this game for a while, but just because of the franchise's strength. Search your feelings, you know this to be true....

The reviews can be TL:DR'ed to the following:

Graphics awesome, Sound amazing, gameplay fun but simple, modes hit or miss, Walker Assault and Supremacy FTW. 7//10, would Star Wars again.

yup, thats exactly what I got from most of the reviews.
 
I order bought and preloaded the Digital Deluxe edition. No regrets.

Thoroughly enjoyed the beta with only 2 maps and 1 game mode on each map. Something casual and fun that doesn't require too much thought process.
 
I'm really still undecided about this one. The audio and visuals are impressive, but I can't see myself playing it all that much. Besides, I'm not really a MP gamer. Wasn't there supposed to be a singleplayer component of sorts?

I believe the single player is actually just multi-player modes and maps loaded with bots. Kinda like unreal tournament back in the day.
 
yeah, but looks like takealot is taking their time with my order.

Paid on the 18th with credit card, sat the whole of the 18th and 19th with a "Will ship on the 20th message". See status updated to now to "In Stock". Not that it matters really, have to work this weekend. Not a happy chappy me.
