Lol, every single Battlefront game has had a third person view.Man the first game felt so much better lol. Having a 3rd person mode is fucking terrible. It should be first person with optional 3rd person servers.

I'm kind of surprised that they dropped Drop Zone and Supremacy.
Loved Administrator's Palace.I'm sure I've said it a few times before, but I just wanted them to bring back Sabotage. That mode easily justified the Bespin DLC for me.
Just read that this is the 3rd most expensive game ever made at $235 million. What the fuck did they spend the money on?

Yeah, fuck this. They've injected and double downed on elements of Battlefield or other traditional shooters into Battlefront II that it never needed (namely changes to the gunplay and movement, class structures, equipment distribution, etc), and kept parts of Battlefront which were exceedingly awful (bottleneck level design).
They've made a game that is different enough from Battlefront that I can respect people who prefer it, but yeah, I'm out. I can't believe how utterly uncompelling I'm finding this beta compared to Battlefront 1. Had full intention to pre-order, now wont be picking it up unless I can get it cheap. I just don't see myself putting time into it at all.
EDIT: I mean, on a more ranty side of things, I literally cannot fathom who the fuck is designing maps like Naboo and some of Battlefront 1's worst bottleneck capture points. They're awful.
The menus are massively improved in this game than the 2015 game. Same layout, but it actually fits the Star Wars theme instead of a sterile visual design student portfolio from the first game.

what are the top 2 most expensive games?
I've had awful performance on Xbox One, but I'm not sure if that's the game, the dashboard beta, or maybe just my launch day Xbox One finally dying.
Yea haha what. 3rd person is way better in these games. I killed so many people today just by peeking.Lol, every single Battlefront game has had a third person view.
As a casual not that familiar with the first one...once you die, I'm finding the whole 'get kicked out for 10 secs to choose class and load in and rejoin again' a pretty shit experience.
Is there an option I'm missing to skip that?

Is the reception to this beta as negative elsewhere as it is in this thread?
Actually around the 4 minute mark when he does his dash if you listen very carefully you can hear the scream
so I realized that targeting other player ships, while fun, is not the best way to play the Starfighter Assault map...targeting objectives seems to be the key to racking up the points
Surprise!
That DICE spawn design.
They've completely forgotten how to make maps that play well at this point it seems like. Battlefield 1 had the same problem with maps being pretty to look at but otherwise being a poorly balanced mess.
The lighting also looks noticeably worse in this game than it does in Battlefront 2015. It seems to be using the same lighting tech that Battlefield 1 is, meaning that it is all calculated in real time. It just seems totally flat in comparison to the pre-computed lightmaps and radiosity in the previous Battlefront game. Really hurts the overall look of the game. The shitty image filters that you can't turn off hurt it even more. The art deserves better than this. The draw distance on the Takodona map is pretty terrible as well.
Gotta agree with pretty much this entire post. It's a damn crying shame, too. I was so fucking pumped for this game. It just feels like it went in completely the different direction than it needed to.

I played it both on ps4 and pc, and although it feels better and plays better on PC, I really don't think the playerbase will be up there after launch, so I'll probably go with ps4 if reviews are good.

Weird graphics on Naboo. Why do the birds keep appearing out of nowhere?
Feels kinda shitty too. Just feels like a meat grinder as 40 players converge on one small capture point. Complete game of attrition at that point and feels like skill is almost meaningless.
Absolutely. The first time I loaded it up I actually laughed at loud. It's pretty bad for a major AAA studio. I have no clue what they were going for. It's not Halo 5 bad, but still felt off in a significantly unpleasant way.
I disagree on the gunplay. It was terrible in the 1st one and many people agree. Anyone that thinks that is good gunplay is out of their minds lol. I guess I will still give the 1st one a try, but I honestly thought it was ridiculously awkward without hardly a damn control option to get comfortable. It was like fucking MAG or some shit and super weird. Coming from my exactly tuned settings of ever facet of the stick in BF1 I was like what and the hell is this peasant game... glad they at least gave a deadzone for the sticks LOL.
There are flaws with this game, notably huge technical ones that I hope get ironed out, but it has a lot of promise. They really need more control options like BF1 though. Just ridiculous they can't mimic that game where it counts.
BF1 has many great maps. It has some bad ones as well. Particularly maps like Tsaritsyn in Conquest are just pointless. But there are many great maps in BF1 dude.
People abusing the hell out of the AT RT being able to be alive in the hallway stages. DICE loves their cheese.
Gah, with the SP I was interested in getting this one, but v. disappointing to hear about potentially worse visuals than the original...
