Not the most interesting of games considering you have Fallout 4, but as a fan of the series in general I'm excited to get the game this weekend.

Graphics are great. Gameplay appears very COD multiplayer like which may or may not appeal to people.

I was watching a few livestreams, and it seems like everyone is disapointed unless they were waiting for Battlefield 4 with Star Wars characters and weapons.


Sounds cray, but I'm starting to appreciate the Lego SW saga of all SW games the most. IMO, it might be the most true to the series, and I hope an Ep 7,8,9 LEGO game comes out, and hopefully a new release with all of it combined.

It seems like this game will play out sort of like Destiny...it'll end up mostly as a PVP with expensive DLC. What else would you expect from EA? Though, I really enjoyed the multiplayer in the PS2 version so hopefully it can be something reminiscent of that for me.

bf4 with star wars characters would have been great. This is nowhere near that. More like CoD with star wars characters.

Mostly pvp? Thats all it is. There is no pve. Zero. No story, no campaign, no private servers, not even dedicated servers.

The graphics look amazing, and if I just glanced at it and didn't know any better, I may be fooled into thinking it's actually part of the movie. But the game play looks repetitive and boring.

That's just what the livestreamers were saying. CoD, BF4, whatever. Tomay-to tomah-to

Let the low quality Disney merchandising begin and the watch the gullible and loyal fans swarm them release dates of every game and gizmo!

Do you want their email or twitter handles to correct them?

Well, I'm not buying that then.

Their demo had PVE. I played that for like an hour and that's all I really have to go off of. PVP is 99% of the "appeal" of the game.

Pretty accurate based on what I've played so far. I think it's enjoyable overall. As a huge Star Wars fan, there's not much I can complain about in regards to presentation. I don't take shooting games super seriously either, so for me, it works.

When I played the beta, I thought the spawning was horrible. There were several times I spawned and was shot almost instantly. It annoyed the hell out of me. Hopefully it's better in the actual game

My main issue is SWBF is it just doesn't seem worth $60 to me. Not with just a couple good game modes and no campaign and limited maps. Especially since EA is going to milk the player base with everything they add to the game. You won't be getting a single map added without paying. Expect to pay around $120 when its all said and done.

Nope...spawn trapping is very much alive and well.
