WTF is... Star Wars: Battlefront? (TB)

[Techicolors]

TB posted his first WTF... in a while now. and look, it's battlefront! 

 

 

I'll give a tl;dw: he hates the game. he praises the graphics, the great pc port, and sound production but everything else is terrible. little to no variety, little to no customization, unbalanced and unsatisfying gunplay (however he understands how difficult it may be to simulate blaster weapons), no real strategy/teamwork, too little maps, season pass paywall, the bulk of multiplayer modes get substantially dull after a while, progression is nonexistent, no campaign.

Thanks, didn't know the forum had turned into my new subscription box

 

Meh I understand TB's criticisms but I do kinda like the game, its a shame it lacks content but I actually really like the gunplay

[Nexxus]

I still wanna know wtf is said at the intro of TBs videos it sounds like "headfish"

[Starelementpoke]

I just make pew pew noises in my head, explosion sounds whenever something explodes, and swoosh sounds whenever I use a light saber. Makes everything 10x better.

Nah dont think so there is an "ish" noise at the end

[CatCloud]

Just saw this, his opinion is painfully correct, it´s a GEM to look at but Heart aching to play.

Its epic, its been the "word" for years Its not an ish you hear but an "uCK" like sound, Dont forget, he is British, his "Years" sounds like "Yuers".

np. i wanted to post it here since TB hasn't done a WTF... in a while, more less on a AAA title 

[ShadowCaptain]

There definitely is not , get a hearing check

 

its EPIC

 

but to extend the sound its like EPICHHHH 

[AresKrieger]

Question to @ShadowCaptain does it not have a game mode akin to conquest from the original battlefronts (and battlefield), where you capture command posts, because I didn't see on in the WTF

 

NVM he finally mentioned it.

[EChondo]

This game seems like a new "Call of Duty" to me, and I don't mean that it plays or looks like Call of Duty, but the way CoD4/WaW/Mw2 used to feel to me, that's what Battlefront feels like.

 

Basic custom loadout, three perk options, random powerups(killstreaks), drop in/drop out matchmaking system that's ease of use and tons of fun. It's a simplistic multiplayer shooter with a Star Wars theme and some appearance options.

 

Maybe it's because I didn't expect anything to come from this than a broken shooter and I was pleasantly surprised. Though the one thing I do agree with TB is that I also don't think what's available is worth $60, I'd be more comfortable spending $30 and maybe $20 on the Season Pass, so I'll probably wait for a BF+Season Pass deal for $30-$40 total.

 

I think TB expected way too much from this release.

[sgtcool]

Its aimed at everyone , mostly casuals, they think its normal to pay so much for the game, only gamers complain (IMO)

 

and its starwars, there hasnt been a good starwars game , in how much? 10 years?

[Praesi]

Beta was boring as Hell. I will not spend a single penny on that crap. Shame on you Dice.

[ManOfDisguise]

I totally agree with TB I can't even say this is a decent game. It's a bad game and just a cashgrab

[Thozi]

It's fun for maybe an hour or two. Obvious rushed cash grab trying to benefit from the hype of new star wars movies coming out.

[Nexxus]

I just wish their was an SP mode in this I would of got it its so fucking pretty

[Drunken Savior]

At least it performs well and looks absolutely goregeous.  Sure as hell won't pay $40+ for it, but it's a game I'll watch out for if they decide to add worthwhile content.

The rush is obvious, just look at the amount of content.  The DLC's better be huge, otherwise no one's gonna bother.
