Star Wars Battlefront 2

[video=youtube;-pDcNJedoZE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pDcNJedoZE[/video]

Best review out for the game so far in my opinion.
 
Whats everyone's thoughts now that EA has removed the pay-to-win loot box system?
 
Meh this won't change much. Next big EA release will just have more expensive up-front price and they will go back to DLC model. Probably with even less vanilla content and even fatter DLC packs. We don't win in this equation, it's just losing by a different name.
Again though, if it is too expensive, people will not buy it unless they feel they are getting their money's worth. So I would hope atleast

In Star Wars there is always hope, this is EA, they are not Star Wars, there is no hope. Even if they do resolve it I feel there with shitty moves on trying to milk the community and not listen to them, because you never get a replied or you get the vaguest shittiest answer they could possibly give, fans will still be miff with them as a company, which is sad because they did it to themselves and decided not to listen.
 
I loved SW Battlefront 1,

The sequel sounded & looked so exciting, I was prepping myself for it.
Then EA stepped in and with all the controversy I completely sidestepped this release.

The environments look amazing, the sounds are even better than the original.
Pity.....
 
Ever since the Nvidia drivers of 08/01/2018 I get the following problem. Dont know if it's related to Nvidia drivers but this problem started happening a day after I updated drivers and played again:

Log into game. Go to arcade/multiplayer, select which mode to play and let it loads. Once it's loaded and suppose to go to map my screen goes black and I'm back at Origin menu and game is closed.

I tried googling but cant find anything similar. I've had other problems before which was fixed via sound and controller issues (crashing gaming for alt tab + in game crashes).
 
Couldnt play much during March and April but picked up the game last 3 weekends playing Arcade and the campaign. I tried playing some multiplayer but all the match lobbies are always empty. Is no one playing on SA servers anymore?

I changed to UK en German but servers but 180 + ping is horrible on this game. From being a good sniper to not being able to snipe at all and just dying all the time
 
This game is SHIT, it is not Star Wars, This is EA being a bunch of KONTS, they announced that they are going to make an announcement, after giving Season 2 a release date, upon that release date, they say no Season 2 is actually only starting in over a month, after being dead silent about season 2 for more than 3 months. Fuck them, they are exploiting kids who have fokoll idea and just have rents swiping their cards, and for the older audience they just don't give one fuck.
 
Anyone still playing this game in SA on PC? I want to get it on special but I don't want to buy it only to find empty servers, gave it a pass when it came out but apparently the game is in a good spot content wise now.
 
Yep. Friends and I recently bought it. Never had troubles for finding games.

Game is awesome and there is a ton of content. With future content planned for 2 more years.

Add me on origin

Is that on South African or German servers? Because high ping can make or break a game for me, especially competitive shooters. Not that I'm any good in the first place haha

There are no local servers. So its using the german one. The ping is not that bad. Around 175ms and in most games it runs smooth. Until EA servers start fucking around.

I didnt like what EA did with this game in the beginning but man SA servers and 30 ping was so good early on in the game. Now other aspects of the game are fixed but the actual online game play sucks with 180 ping
 
I still play but cant find any SA lobbies with people in them. How do you find SA lobbies with people?
There is no SA server? So it connects me to the euro one. Plenty of people there
