I would go as far to say that its not even Walker Assault mode that's unbalanced, but more of the game itself.
I played the beta enough to make a decision on this game, and I had a good amount of fun (nostalgia factor) but I cant let nostalgia cloud the fact that the game is a bit broken. Be it spawn points, lack of conflict lines, lack of actual bases for rebels and imperials, random drops and upgrades sprinkled all over the map, air combat not being as fluent and as smooth as jet fighting in BF4, lack of classes and instead we get loudouts which kind of kill the team play, no server browsers, and of course the buddy system was the deal breaker (not to mention that 4 DLC packs have been announced already). I have hopes that EA's Star Wars Battlefront would fail (ala Battlefield Hardline) and the Battlefront franchise could move to another company that is NOT EA, Ubisoft & Activision....
The game is decent, few bugs and glitches here and there naturally, but there is one thing that really ticks me off about this game:
THE BUDDY SYSTEM - it sucks, I cant have more than 1 more person to be my partner. How does this appeal to everyone who has more than 1 friend and wants to party up with more than 1 person. Example; I invited 3 people to my party, we qued up and I was only able to see 1 of them on my map. I can only spawn on one and can only follow one, all my other mates are just on the team and blend in with everyone else. It's completely flawed.
Bring back squads, so I could at least have 4 people in my squad and be able to play with them, cycle through them and choose who to spawn on. It feels like this game purposely leaves out the multiplayer aspect in a multiplayer game. (I know i posted this earlier btw and have been on EA's forums)

This is just one complaint I have, although I can make more but some fellow gamespotters have mentioned some below.
@davillain-:Same here bud, I ain't mad at it, I just like having a constant feed for games and if anything i can switch to the movie feed. Having them all together looks a tad messy lol
