Well the old "gold" status is long gone from almost every kind of software development, and any last minute change can always be applied with day one patch. And that said, what's there to change or fix other than server tuning and bug hunt?

Downloaded and played for a minute. Sweet looking game. Love the way it plays. Not sure its priority on my upcoming purchases though.
I think he means "removed" as in a feature that's standard in other shooters.
By the way, I know the game on console doesn't look as good as on pc, but hot damn, who cares? The game looks great on console, the freaking rocks look so real. The environments are so photorealistic, it's insane. Nice job.
Ah, he is another one of those people that think all shooters should have the same options and features. No thanks.
I think the old battlefront games were really good for the time, they were fun, great looking and offered a huge sandbox. This DICE game does some of that, but it seems like it hand holds a bit too, and doesn't offer as much freedom either. That's one thing I don't like, we're 10 years beyond those games=more linear with this series somehow, one of the series that defined scale. I understand its a gameplay decision, but there was something awesome about getting in a space dogfight, killing enemy fighters, then landing on a battleship and taking that over as a ground troop.
Idk, when i think of a next gen battlefront, i think of this type of scale and dynamic gameplay, it had a certain charm about it, despite it being unfinished especially on the visual side. Idk, i had more fun watching the unfinished version of this than playing the DICE beta right here in front of me.

Well many of the other game modes seem to be smaller scale modes so I don't see him finding what he wants from those
So far it isn't pulling me in. Might be good for some mindless fun, but I don't see it as a game that would hold my interest for long. I don't know, but it just got boring for me after a few rounds.
There's just too many games coming out this fall.

drop zone is okay but walker mode is what this betas about. the scale and progression of the battle is just so good
Oddly enough, I have enjoyed drop zone more. But I am going to get in some more Walker battles this afternoon.
Yeah I think they are going for a smaller side(for a battlefront game) and just pushing visuals a bit more. I'd be fine with less fidelity and more along the lines of what Free Radical was going for. However, for what it is it's still fun and I know many will enjoy it.
Agreed. We haven't even seen half the game modes, nor the majority of maps, unlocks, etc.
Walker Assault is pretty boring, IMO. Then again, I don't like conquest mode in BF4.
Drop Zone is more KOTH or Headquarters
The game needs a Conquest mode. There is going to be a point capture game mode but it sounds more like Chainlink from BF4 than Conquest
Yeah I'm planning on giving it a try soon. I think I will definitely like the Hoth map more than sullust anyway.
The more I play the game the more I like it, it just really feels like an authentic Star Wars experience, the sound effects, the great graphics etc. I know some people complain that in walker assault the game seems a bit unbalanced but the rebels are supposed to be on the defensive, also I've been on a winning rebel team many times, people just need to pay attention to the objective more than getting kills and the game will feel a lot more fair to them.
