Star Wars Battlefront 2 Official Full Length Trailer.

https://www.ea.com/games/starwars/battlefront/battlefront-2

The official site has some info, and the battlefront reddit is going nuts.

Classes are a thing. "Officer, Assault, Heavy, and Specialist." Probably not in that order here.

I realize their pre order bs isn't so bad this time. They're just episode 8 skins of kylo ren and rey, rather than entirely new characters. At least the site seemed to say that in the news section.

- No season pass (Maybe. conflicting reports on this point. DICE doesnt want to split the community through putting maps behind a wall at the very least)
- Classes
- Split screen
- an actual freaking singleplayer story mode
- no gungans

I mean I'm not preordering the super ultra deluxe blowjob edition, but I'm not quite immune to the hype either.

I hope riding a Tauntaun is as fun as it sounds like it would be lol. Also the campaign sounds great, seeing things from the Empire's point of view as well as being able to play as Kylo Ren and Luke Skywalker (maybe others) during the campaign sounds great.

Looks like VR will get extra love as well. I might double dip, pro and scorpio versions, maybe rent pro for this.


Hmm, or could Scorpio get a turn for VR this time? Can't wait to see if that's on the table or not. In the mean time, I've been waiting for a PSVR price drop to happen.
 
This looks really good but the last one looked really good too when it was kind of crappy in the end.

Yeah but most of the problems looked to be solved, BF1 had no singleplayer and lacked content, this looks to remedy both of those in spades.

I thought the game played well on ps4 and is the best looking game on the console to this day considering how large it is and 60fps(most of the time)

Scorpio's plans for VR are 2018, MS talked about it the other day. This year its still all about PSVR on consoles. I've played the VR X-Wing mission and it was one of the best SW moments of my life. Its only 20min long though, but 10min of it is combat. It would be incredible to play the game in VR as a Tie Fighter pilot.

LOL. SW BF1 is free on EA Access. Was thinking about jumping in as I wait for new shooters in the fall.

But since SW BF2 is coming out, my interest in playing SW BF1 is now gone.
 
No season pass
Unless EA is willing to give away all DLC for free (which they won't), isn't a Season Pass actually good?

For me, I'd never do it as I rarely buy DLC (some CoD map packs over the years), but for gamers who like to buy lots of content a season pass gets the gamer all the goods at a discount price, as opposed to buying stuff separately at full price.

It's just as well, there are conflicting quotes from EA and DICE. The main point to take away from what DICE said was that they learned from the first and no longer want to split the player count and lock modes and maps behind the paywall. Whether they'll be allowed is another matter.

They could certainly make a season pass with other content out there.
 
I quite enjoyed Battlefront 1. It was one of the most balanced shooters out there. No lag comp. No "bulls***" deaths. Weapons were nicely balanced. I'm looking forward to the next one!
 
Looks solid. Sony has marketing rights again if i heard right even though it will be on EA Access first. Maybe they're paying for parity as well? :laugh:

I don't think it was crappy it was just lacking content, it was/is one of the best looking shooters so far this gen and the gameplay is solid.

Nah. For me then game play is far to arcadey.

I know some people were expecting it to be battlefield with a star wars skin and when it wasn't they were disappointed, not saying you feel that way exactly but I've heard it a lot. It sounds like the new one may lean a little more towards the battlefield kind of formula as far as classed being introduced, it sounds like it'll be deeper than the last one as well as having more content so it sounds like it is making steps in the right direction.

I didn't really have any expectations outside of it being a Star Wars game and I love that franchise. I liked playing for a few weeks when it came out but it just didn't hold up once the initial Star Wars buzz wore off.

Pc players. Mouse aiming is just like that.

Major future content (maps, weapons, heroes) will be free, prime for them cosmetic/time saving miscrotransactions.
