Has the microtransaction controversy ruined the game for you or are you still planning on getting battlefront 2?? Sound off in comments below and don’t forget to tell us which game you want us to cover next!! You can continue the conversation with us on Discord (The Leaderboard Fam): discord.gg/ddnfPwH
The Leaderboard it was Pandemic and LucasArts who did the original SW:Battlefront series -_-¿ EA's Battlefronts are a joke completely hell I'll go back to the Original SW:Battlefront 2 since pc version multiplayer is back on again
Yeah they completely lied about the story SPOILERS She betrays the empire in less than 3 hours in There’s only one mission in the force awakens era and it doesn’t have Iden in it (but the story expansion that comes out in two weeks will have her in that era)
This video is so good and ever since it's release the game has changed so much and more things are coming for the rest of this year. Keep up the good work here and despite the amount of haters out there, don't let that discourage you from making great videos.
ATSF Wolf Fiscal Why does everyone have the same stuff back? I mean, yes, it was COOL, I loved it! But they want to create something NEW, their own game. And if they just remake the old one, everyone will say: "Copy of the original one, nothing new.." And making a game takes soo long! Everyone thinks games come out of nothing. No hate btw.. I think many people hate it because they called it Battlefront 2. They shouldnt have done that.
ATSF Wolf Fiscal here's something that will make you sad they were going to make Republic Commando 2 set in the Imperial era which is kind of dumb because I rather be set in the clone wars were you play a Sev trying to escape CIS prison trying to get back to Republic space but EA shut it down
SPOILERS: ... Iden becomes a Rebel by the midway point of the game. So much for the Empire being painted as the "Good guys" angle. It's like the third or forth mission where she finds out how evil the Empire is and just goes "Welp, I'm gonna go to the Rebels now!" Oh and most of the footage seen in trailers is nowhere to be seen, except for the explosion of the Dstar. But even that is just a small snippet of them discussing something, the ship blowing up and there's no cutscene mention of "Wasn't expecting Special Forces" meme, it's just said in passing during one of the encounters you have. There's no Iden preaching in front of a bunch of troopers, in fact she changes her mind about the Empire rather quick as I've said. It's almost as if they had a grand plan for the story mode, then gave up halfway through. Oh and Starkiller Base is saved for a Story Mode DLC on the 13th of DEC, so they didn't even finish the story they changed.
0:54 Yeah... for like the first hour... Literally, I think its the 3rd mission in, and she defects. Should be sued for false advertising. Literally *everything* pointed towards an Imperial heavy campaign, with heavy loyalty to the Empire. Of course, the way she defects is the most rushed, unfinished reason ever.. They attack the Imperial Loyal planet Vardos, her home planet. Why you ask? "To spread fear, so the galaxy knows the Empire is still on control" or something extremely similar to that. Makes no sense. I understand Naboo, and earlier why they blew up Aldeeran, but there was absolutely *NO* F'ing reason to attack Vardos. That's like saying "Oh, we, the United States, are going to bomb New York City to scare the rest of the world to show we are in control of our property and whatnot" Makes no sense what soever. And don't come to me saying "Oh, the Russians did that to stop Napoleon, and later on the Nazis" Because that in and of itself is an entirely different situation. They did it to stop their massive military advance, and the people were in on it. Scorched earth policy. The Empire had no such intentions. Some parts were okay, like the parts were it introduced *key* canon points, but that was it. Everything else was yes, indeed Garbage. This is coming from a guy who still loves Star Wars and Gaming heavily, and what's nothing else for the franchise to do well. I was mister nice guy for the last game (which we do not ever speak of) but this time, I am sure that EA needs its rights stripped. Give it to someone who cares, Like Pandemic did. Please explain why they had servers had numbers twice the size of the modern EA ones? Bots, yes, were part of that, and even the new Criterion flying modes are golden (with a few ify stuff) which also includes bots. No reason why Kashyyk had 20v20... especially Kamino, where trillions of troops were born (but that, I understand, is to balance for the droids to have a fair fight) Though, just watch the Clone Wars series, and the numbers in that battle were very well balanced. EA= Extreme Accident
That's the point the emperor wanted the empire to die with him it was pretended to be a scorched earth campaign hence the name project cinder in wich all Imperial resources would be destroyed si no-one could access them
You should know that this micro-transaction loot-box-baiting pay-to-win death trap will likely be the most hated Star Wars game of all time... 3:19 "You can play as Luke!" After 40 hours of tedious grinding that is..
People have done the calculations. It was 40 hours of grinding. Price reduction doesn't matter since they cut both the price AND the credit rewards by 75%, so it balances out and is still 40 hours.
[Spoiler Alert] Campaign was fun, till you became a rebel. Then it got boring and repetitive, real fast. [Repetitive as in: Every single game you are the 'good guy' and you go somewhere to deny the Empire something, kill someone, try to save someone, want this for the rebellion, etc. Oh, i just explained the whole rebel side of the campaign. Whoops.]
We basically got an extended cut of Rogue One as a campaign, a bad micro transaction game, like 4 new heroes, great $60 of what should have been in the 1st game
Here’s a article to what where getting . www.gamesradar.com/star-wars-battlefront-2-will-get-finn-phasma-and-a-new-single-player-episode-on-december-13/
"We're sure the newest Battlefront game will be a big step forward [from Pandemic's Battlefront II]." Yeah, well, hope into one hand, spit into the other, and see which fills up faster.
"imperials as the good guys" We can only wish for a game with a true imperial point of view. Instead, we get a traditional "imperial defects to the rebellion" story. Honestly, that's my second biggest complaint with my game, second only to the micro transactions and in-game credit system. This game also needed a conquest mode with large battles and cp points. The unfortunate moral of the story: you can't trust any EA game or new battlefront game. (Or any star wars game for that matter, since EA holds all the cards.)
The original Battlefront series was not made by EA because if it was my Star Wars Battlefront II 2005 would have went the way of most EA Games I had being pawned off at a game store in my Mall and plus there was more than two Battlefront games there was at least five
Dallas The Star Wars Fan I don't know what you have been smoking to think at the new one is better than the original one or you just some fake fan or you just prefer playing shity EA Games
Dallas The Star Wars Fan you're literally the only human being I've ever seen actually completely think Star Wars Battlefront 2 2017 is actually good you want to who else thinks this game is really good little kids congratulations you're in the group of children
[Commando 724] You're literally the only hypocrite I've seen in the last week, congratulations for your inability to understand freedom of speech. Congratulations, you also don't know what grammar is!
I didn't buy this game because I tried the Beta and found it to be a very basic arcade shooter. The predatory loot box system that Ray wanted to implementing this game is the reason I would never buy another EA Game. This video plays like a paid advertisement and it is not an impartial critique.
Battlefront isn’t even bad with transactions lmao I legit got Luke, the most expensive hero, in 3 hours. You’re gonna grind the game anyways just stop being salty.
Game director doesn’t know how to actually write a story about “retaliation” if the main character just leaves the empire and then a couple weeks later, joins the rebellion. This game sucks ass. They need to rewatch those movies again.
I cancelled my pre-order and I do not regret it. The campaign is a joke so far, the progression system is trash and microtransations will come without doubt.
Sad to say, don't buy this game. They might have remove the micro transactions, but they will bring them again at a later date, they already confirmed it.
I wont call battlefront 2 (2017) the fourth to the battlefront games instead its part of the Battlefront EA games. Also I 90% agree with you the 10% is just graphics
its 'funny' the campaign is presented as 'you play as the heroes of the empire' and within the first couple of missions you literally betray the empire, disobey your orders and joins the rebellion and help destroy the empire... so much for playing as the empire eh?
Has the microtransaction controversy ruined the game for you or are you still planning on getting battlefront 2?? Sound off in comments below and don’t forget to tell us which game you want us to cover next!! You can continue the conversation with us on Discord (The Leaderboard Fam): discord.gg/ddnfPwH

The Leaderboard it was Pandemic and LucasArts who did the original SW:Battlefront series -_-¿ EA's Battlefronts are a joke completely hell I'll go back to the Original SW:Battlefront 2 since pc version multiplayer is back on again

14:12 EA did not develop the Old Battlefront.
It was Pandemic and LucasArts
Yeah they completely lied about the story
SPOILERS
She betrays the empire in less than 3 hours in
There’s only one mission in the force awakens era and it doesn’t have Iden in it (but the story expansion that comes out in two weeks will have her in that era)
FanBoy no doubt it was written by Left Normies, unfortunately...
Sense they took of the pay to win wouldn't be surprised if we got to buy dlc
And they said geonosis? That's not in the game. Dlc or what.
OH DAMN!!! thats so cliche
I have no doubt she's the girl that dies when Starkiller Base fires it's main weapon
A handful of these facts need to be either removed or updated due to what happened recently.
This game is good
From a certain point of view
God Your lord and savior well from my point of view the game is evil
The high ground then you are lost
Roger Roger
God Your lord and savior -luke “from a certain point of view”

I miss the old BF2
Wish BF2 2017 ome had 2 story mods, one from the clone wars how the 5o1s journal like the old one, and this.
ATSF Wolf Fiscal Been there done that.

*Delight...delight...you mean digust and rage...*
Blaze Master How about stop bitching and play the game!
Blaze Master no
Please make 107 More Facts about Kingdom Hearts, more focused on the 2nd game and the spin-offs.
I don't like that Battlefront 2 doesn't let you play Multiplayer modes offline, I can't even go online so how will I be able to play the game
Bradley Rutledge yeah like how we cant use vehicles
Aldrin Partisala at least the original Battlefront 2 allowed us to play all the modes in Instant Action, there was also Galactic Conquest
WHY DID U BUY Ea TRA$H? Did tho not know of ALWAYS ONLINE DRM MAGIC?!
Dead Spaceracoon actually, arcade is just like missions from their first Battlefront game
Don't worry, they will be making galactic assault for ai and star fighter assault ai.You may even get galactic conquest but who knows.
I'm pretty bummed that they didn't include all the maps for arcade mode like hoth or Death Star 2. Hopefully they will add these in the future
SPOILERS:
... Iden becomes a Rebel by the midway point of the game. So much for the Empire being painted as the "Good guys" angle. It's like the third or forth mission where she finds out how evil the Empire is and just goes "Welp, I'm gonna go to the Rebels now!"

Its true. All of it
2:24 Wrong. The location from The Rogue One is ncluded. The Scariff location are present in the story.
0:54
Yeah... for like the first hour... Literally, I think its the 3rd mission in, and she defects.
Should be sued for false advertising. Literally *everything* pointed towards an Imperial heavy campaign, with heavy loyalty to the Empire.

Anime Girl Amy They only reduced the campaign reward
Anime Girl Amy it takes maybe 3 hours to get 15000 credits
I got vader (15k) within My first couple of hours. Stop crying.

Campaign was fun, till you became a rebel. Then it got boring and repetitive, real fast. [Repetitive as in: Every single game you are the 'good guy' and you go somewhere to deny the Empire something, kill someone, try to save someone, want this for the rebellion, etc. Oh, i just explained the whole rebel side of the campaign. Whoops.]
showing gameplay from the old battlefront games makes me want to play them rather than this
"to the delight of fans everywhere" uhhh, are you sure about that?
what was the music at the beginning?
I know it's not Darude Sandstorm
I have noticed if we can play as all Star Wars characters, where's Anakin and Obi-Wan?
In my personal opinion. It’s a fun game with good concepts on paper. But it need to be ironed out a little bit.
Star wars battlefront 2 at launc meh, now amazing. The lootbox system was awful
We basically got an extended cut of Rogue One as a campaign, a bad micro transaction game, like 4 new heroes, great $60 of what should have been in the 1st game
*107 Reasons Why*
EA had nothing to do with the original Star Wars Battlefront games. They were produced by an entirely different company.
Emo Pony it was dise before EA bought it
REST IN PEACE PANDEMIC...

Too bad they lied about a lot of stuff
I cancelled my pre-order and I do not regret it. The campaign is a joke so far, the progression system is trash and microtransations will come without doubt.
Coastcrawler EA has fix the problem with the microtransactions and the progression system the microtransactions are disabled for a certain time
[Commando 724] Postponed, not fixed. EA is greedy. As soon as sales are decent, they will return.
Coastcrawler isn't that always what EA does
Ayeee
And I forgot to pre order it!!!!!!

Bruh, this video feels so shilly or just terribly uninformed.
Do south park fractured but whole 107 facts like if yoi agree
Many faults you have. not true star wars fan you are.
Gaming Today cringe
Gaming Today right you are a great disturbance I sense
Sad to say, don't buy this game. They might have remove the micro transactions, but they will bring them again at a later date, they already confirmed it.
Diego Alegre who cares
so you like that they rip you off?
Diego Alegre they dont
Diego Alegre They probably only bring it back for cosmetics and thats fine considering ALL DLC's will be free
how are they not ripping you off after all the nonsense they're tried to pull?
Ehhh? How are the imperials pictured as the good guys in this story? hahaha, Inferno squad leave the Empire due to them being so Evil?
Max Haug let me fix that for you; Inferno squad leaves the *OLD EMPIRE* because they see the direction that the new empire is going in.
THE ORIGINAL IS BETTER. Also I call BF2 battlefront technically 4
Baden W. Shush
I wont call battlefront 2 (2017) the fourth to the battlefront games instead its part of the Battlefront EA games. Also I 90% agree with you the 10% is just graphics
I mean to be fair, battlefront 2 by pandemic was 70% conquest.
its 'funny' the campaign is presented as 'you play as the heroes of the empire' and within the first couple of missions you literally betray the empire, disobey your orders and joins the rebellion and help destroy the empire... so much for playing as the empire eh?
Iden is reys mom.
Early
I love this game. Let's see how far my opinion goes in this sea of angsty, edgy, uncultured 13 year olds.
Well your comment went 4 weeks without notice, I'd say that's a new record!
Honestly. I completely agree.
Honestly i loved 2015 and the 2017 battlefront
no. 1 ITS PAY TO WIN
Gamer Wits No. 2 it really isnt
Gale【MMD】 No. 3 due to complains it being Pay 2 Win
N°3 it wasn't even like that in the first place
Um, you need to do facts about the original games not this EA bullshit.
