I dislike how Disney is pushing EA to add the nu star wars content and avoid any EU content, Star Wars games did better when they followed part of the EU, if they didn't most of them would just be boring movie-based games and not sell that well. EA originally tried not to add the nu star wars stuff with the previous Battlefront game.
If Goldeneye 64 for example strictly followed the movie without the added extras it had it would've been much shorter, linear, on-rails, and predictable.
On another note I think the Storm Commandos from the EU would've been better than Tie-Fighter pilot-esque soldiers on ground, but they could follow Rogue Squadron III Rebel Strike's more unique looking Storm Commandos instead of the mere black coloured Scout Trooper designs.
@Daveof89: Why are you saying just EA? The same happens with every company ever. There are sheep who buy games at full price REGARDLESS of the company at hand.
