Media Star Wars BattleFront

Its the way the industry works now. Its terrible, but we have to deal with it.

It has just lost its charm. Gone are the days when you got a game and played it for hours. Now, most follow the same pattern, feature the same protagonists and have the same story. There are still some gems out there, but the turds are far more...

Calling people names and classifying them based on your standards while yourself is kinda rude, I think. But hey, what does a filthy casual know?

Is he? Disney scrapped everything that's outside of 1-6, but I don't recall them saying anything about what came in-between. Still, not a big loss, but I wouldn't mind him dropping by. TFU was and still is a fun game. TFU 2 less so, but both were respectable SW games.

A little sensitive are we? A casual gamer is a bad thing according to you? Calling people names. What are you trying to do here. Please, quote me when I called someone "a name". A casual gamer is nothing bad, if you thought I meant bad, my apologies, I really don't know what is bad about a casual gamer, nothing is...then again, you posted the meme....

Like I said, I apologize if my comments upset you, not trying to be rude or mean or bashful or looking down, but the people who have played this game already in the alpha and beta builds have said nothing but good things about it. I would just not be so quick to judge this game.

Yes, starkiller is now classified as "legend" (according to wookiepedia). Would be cool to see him. To bad we never got The Force Unleashed 3 or Star Wars 1313. Would have been awesome games.

I liked going to the store, buying the full game, and playing it. Now its buy the game, install it and update it (which takes hours and hours), then play half a game, then spend mkre money on DLC, install it, update, repeat. It is frustrating. I hope Battlefront 3 does not turn out like this. DLC is fine, but if the story being told is not complete on the disc, and you need to spend more money to complete it, it is just sad. It seems now a game costs $100 with all the DLC.

I don't have problem with "casual" as a term, I just don't like this mentality that "casuals" are the filth of the earth and have no say in gaming matters. Then again, not everything carries through the monitor,so no worries, it's all in good fun. Besides, what's the point of having an internet conversation if you can't use a meme or two?

Well, poop. I'd have loved to see him and Juno backing the Empire.

 

[RIDDICK]

You dont think the X1 has improved, let alone Frostbite 3, over the course of two years? Really? No firmware updates, tweaks, API changes.... nothing? The seventh cpu core being opened will greatly improve game performance and the footage seen, will be the graphics you see when you play it. Any BF trailer I watched never advertised "game engine footage." You know why, because they did not have the ability to make it look that good.

64 player creates to many issues. i will let you figure those issues out if you played the game before, you should easily know.

Not insulting. Insulting is 20gb updates on day one of release.

Yes.... because game engines are never improved... neither are hardware, developing tools, or unlocks for development...

"Engine capability has nothing to do with how the game will look on your platform" i had to send this to quote to my friend, we are still laughing!
My super brief explanation, game wrote, different threads, not based on cores, hopes it utilizes all cores, more cores are good, they play off each other, increased processing power improves it..

I don't have time to write out everything.

Not casual. At one point or another top hundred on COD Black Ops, Black Ops 2, Advanced Warefare.

Even with all those breaks from Gears, top 500 on gears 3, top 100 player weekly (don't even play it every night either)

Tournies, game battles....

Casual gamers keep the industry profiting. Might sound dumb, but my point i was trying to make is that someone who plays a lot more and know some people who are on the inside of the industry, I have heard nothing but good things about this game.

Yeah, I like talking face to face, tone and facial expressions carry merit in conversations, i do sound a little but idiotic rereading my posts.... could have communicated a little better here, my bad.

I would love to see a real life Proxy droid in the movie. Could imagine his Darth Maul training protocol showing up in episode 7. Would be awesome.

 

[Natedog]

I'm by no means a casual gamer (and I have the trophies to prove it). I just despise multiplayer games.

Oooh lets play - insert game name here -

Uh oh the server is down

or

Uh Oh I need to spend 3 hours downloading and installing yet another patch

or

Oh great another idiot -doing something stupid like killing his own team mates - just to unlock some "trophy."

or

Oh great another little 10 year old punk who thinks he's the ****e.
Punk - "Whos that loser in the black armor with the red stick"
Me - "Thats Darth Vader, and its called a light saber"
Punk - "Dark who?"
Me - "Isn't it past your bedtime? Grab your teddy bear and get the F outta here!"

To each his own.

I'll hold out for that rumored open world Star Wars game. Awesome!

 

[zexion_armando]

no space battles is just a terrible thing to waste for a series known for space dog fighting.

This, especially the "servers are down" part. What happened with Diablo 3 was inexcusable and it was neither the first, nor will it be the last instance of something like that happening. What I hate the most is that if something happens and your connection is cut off for a second bam! you get kicked out and sometimes get punished.

I liked going to the store, buying the full game, and playing it. Now its buy the game, install it and update it (which takes hours and hours), then play half a game, then spend mkre money on DLC, install it, update, repeat. It is frustrating.

Updating is the absolute worst. "Oh, you want to game a bit before going to bed? Well, ***** YOU, here's 3 hours of downloading useless patches!"

Oh, are you a PC gamer?

most "Hardcore" gamers are.

I may not be as cool as you, I'm an extremely casual gamer by most standards. But I have a pretty good PC and I appreciate a good game when I see one, I also understand how certain aspects work which is why that "game engine" trailer didn't even register with me. Star Wars Battlefront was one of my favorites back in my console days and I hold it dear to my heart, and this one is unfortunately shaping up to be a modern day disappointment in comparison showing a lot less features than the older games had, certainly less than SW:BF3 was shaping up to offer nearly 8 or 9 years ago. But it is still too early to judge. Still, all of that aside you really aren't showing yourself in a good light, spouting gibberish, defending mediocrity and looking down on others for no real reason it seems. We're all gamers and fans of the series here... Hardcore or not.

Also, not to toot my own hardcore horn. But I play DCS: A-10c, that is about as Hardcore as games can get (the USAF use it to train real Warthog pilots) So Ner

Spoiler

HARDCORE!!!

 

[Irvy]

Looks like another disney cash cow. Modern gaming sucks balls.

Lets just say people who know people told me the game is awesome in the beta when they held open applications to play it a few weeks back. I am going on someones word this game will be good. Hardcore gamers have more connections than casuals. That is the point I was making. I really do not understand why so many of you are so sensitive about "casual gamer" pretty pathetic, considering I said nothing wrong, but "casuals complaining," which basically means people who know no one in the industry who have no inside knowledge.....

 

[Kibagami]

Damn, more frostbite 3 engine.

Looks like fun.

So a friend of a friend gave a personal opinion on it and that's insider information that over rules everybody else's early concerns? I think Hardline is a POS cash grab, my opinion, others seem to like it so let's not take a second hand opinion as fact just yet.

Also, nobody is being sensitive, just amused at a self proclaimed hardcore legend that seems to believe us casual apes can have no opinion on the matter. But that's cool. We're all hoping this turns out great, but it is hard to be impressed by the early details.

You had me at open world. Now tell me more.

Again, you are being sensitive to the word casual. I do not know why you are having trouble comprehending. You keep referring to casuals in a bad light. I saw it one time and you freak out. Sad.

 

[Rulk]

I get this for $36 USD

which makes it alright for a blind buy I suppose.

 

[Python]

Pretty sure I'm not...

I'm an extremely casual gamer by most standards.

I don't think I'm the one struggling to comprehend things here. My point was you're coming across badly by trying to big yourself up and fire down everybody elses opinions due to you being so hardcore. It is funny though, so thank you for that at least.

 

[firefan204]

I so wish it was more in the style of Battlefront 2 but with better graphics and game mechanics. The lack of single player is a big drawback for me!

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

No space battles just baffles me. Battlefront 2 had that on last gen and this can't?

Non-traditional campaign to me suggests a string of mutiplayer maps against bots with a fragments of a story like Destiny.

Why the hell exclude PT? While the movies werent beloved the vehicle and characters design sure as hell was and it sucks there'll be no Coruscant, Mustacar or a naboo with Republic or Confederate vehicles

I'll echo the comments about games feeling more special in the olden days. Sure there are some gems these days but most fall into the DLC, yearly entry, micro-transaction hole.

Yes, starkiller is now classified as "legend" (according to wookiepedia). Would be cool to see him. To bad we never got The Force Unleashed 3 or Star Wars 1313. Would have been awesome games.

Screw that noise. Not letting Disney tell me what is and isn't Star Wars.

Starkiller was awesome and that along with the PT And CW and even Tag and Bink are still Star Wars
