Star Wars Battlefront 2 Beta Extended For PS4, Xbox One, And PC; Here's When It Ends

Lol, no word on the gambleware and the fact that the game is a pay-to-win built around MT aka loot crap? Seems legit.

Loot boxes sell Emotes and cosmetics which is fine and would be enough on its own. HOWEVER, weapons, Weapon mods, Star cards, Star card upgrades that have 100% dmg reduction. ALL BASED ON RNG! The ENTIRE progression is based off of currency ONLY obtained from loot boxes. Having more starcards opens up your character progression to its MAX. THIS IS A MULTIPLAYER GAME!!!!!!!! People who spend MORE MONEY will have a NEGATIVE effect on people who SPEND LESS! PERIOD!

Pay 2 win

This game would've been a perfect 10 had it designed a FAIR character progression based off ANYTHING OTHER THAN PAYING FOR IT WITH REAL MONEY>

Have fun getting owned by rich people who drop hundreds on day one while you grind out your weak arse toon. I WILL NOT SUPPORT THIS. Supporting this will give future games and devs the idea that its OK to sell off winning. Star Wars Battlefront 2 is no better than the Free 2 Play games where you spend gems to get MORE CHANCES to get rarer loot than a guy who shells out less than him.

I think the biggest problem with the game is that it lacks immersion. Maps are too big and feel empty and the idea for cross-era heroes is just dumb and should be separated.

There also seems to be no sense of strategy, just run and shoot your way out. Although the battle point system is better than the stupid power-up system, it makes being able to play with the unique- and hero classes quite a hassle. They should either reduce the amount of points to make them available or just give them a cooldown timer (similar to Titanfall). Vehicles should also play a more pivotal role and should be readily available on the map and the heavy class should be redesigned to be able to counter them (just like the original games).

In the end, I briefly had fun with the beta but it still far less enjoyable than the original games IMO.

The game looks remarkable on the Pro on a 4K tv if you wear dirty glasses or sit about 15 feet away. At a more engaging playing distance there are far too many visual issues and it looks awful. Low resolution, excessive pop in, jaggies, scan lines... Sorry to say. It's really meant for 1080p TV's. Dice did an excellent job with the game but for some reason added an annoying artificial scan-line effect you can only really notice on a good TV at a reasonable distance. Something they did not do on the previous game and that's a shame. It really demonstrates the horsepower needed to create a realistic looking world and how the Pro just can't do it. Come on X, don't let me down...

I spent an hour with this beta and that was enough for me. I had high hopes for this, but they did not really improve it much over the first game. Cross era heroes is also so stupid and totally breaks any kind of immersion, might as well paint the stormtroopers pink if that is going to be in there. The blaster fire is also so small it looks like they are firing bullets. And the gameplay is so casual and so simple it feels really cheap to me.

Besides some flaws such as the blaster fire, they have created a very pretty game. But this is proof that good graphics don't make a great game. Man, the worst thing to happen to Star Wars is EA getting the licence for game development.

cool more time on the battlefront

Fail Front 2.

The game is absolutely stunning, if you don’t have Battlefield 1 or Destiny 2 I’d say go for it.

Uninstalled it after ten minutes... it really is beautiful, but the space flight is so on rails it’s not even funny... they had better space flight in x wing vs tie fighter way back in the day. Take a page from Eve Valkyrie or Eve Online next time. The Frostbite engine and Star Wars legacy is too good to screw up. Feels like they really were planning it for VR and were afraid people would get nauseated.

I hope they make a red dead redemption 2 has babies with Kotor and skyrim style game in the Star Wars universe someday. Focus entirely on sp then maybe add a dm, ctf, and coop mode.

Love this engine, just not how it’s being used

fantastic game with free dlc. the loot box system is a lil hit that we have to take in order to get free maps etc... im fine with that

I usually hate AI but this is a series that needs a large player count AND bots.

I'll give this beta another chance then since i wasn't able to get in more than 1 full game. Never made it pass the agreement screen the first night and the next day i couldn't skip the intro video. :(

There's no squads.

When you die, you go right back to the start and wait for 4 other randoms to respawn with you. You run at the fight and repeat. It feels more like a call of duty game than a Battlefield game.

It's a no from me.

HAHAHA, I already uninstalled it.

No way am I redownloading 20+ gigs.

They just took Battlefield 1 and put a Star Wars Skin on it. Its sad and pathetic that this is what passes for a good game now. I will stick with Battlefield 1.

This game should be free if they're going to add this many "crates" in it, really starting to dislike the word.

So...another SW Battlefront fail....confirmed.

another pay-to-win game, of course it is EA franchise now but even in open beta loot crate' crafting materials have a preview, preparing your wallets for another money sucker vacuum ... good job EA, another franchise compromised ... despite loot cranes the gameplay is fantastic, fun and good looking

Has there been any confirmation whether BOTS will be supported in ALL maps, not just the boring small "arcade" mode ?? If not I'm not pre-ordering... thx in advance :-)

Not worth it. One day was more than enough for this... thing...

Played for one day, giving it chance to convince me. No, thanks! Gameplay may be different from the first, but it's equally bad, and pretty graphics can't save it. Deleted the second day. I'll keep playing the originals.

Hooray! This ones fun. Pretty too.

Played 1 match, couldn't bare it
