Star Wars Battlefront (2015) Catch-All

Pages

Since I'm not finding a thread for the new version of Battlefront anywhere on the site, I'll risk being a filthy skimmer with this. Anywho, here's a ton of rumors, including rumors that it'll span from the Clone Wars to the beginning of The Force Awakens.

I'm trying to keep myself from getting my hopes up before they unveil what the game is actually like. But yeah, I'm definitely interested!

I'm excited. Hopefully we get some concrete info soon - there's just not much available at this point.

I'm interested in the concept, but I couldn't stand the last two games so my expectations are low for this one.

Maybe I won't be disappointed this time?

If you disliked the first two games, I'm afraid the genre probably isn't for you? I assume that the third game will be an iteration on the first two in gameplay at least.

Its more or less a reskinned Battlefield game, if that kind of gameplay is of interest to you?

I must admit though, that I enjoyed the space combat immensely, but thats because I felt it was very reminiscent of Tie Fighter and X-wing games from that time.

I do hope this is actually good. My son is extremely excited.

Yeah, I would really like this to be as awesome as it should be.

I hate to be so giddy with excitement but this will be a day one purchase for me. This is likely an irrational decision on my part but the kid in me just can't help himself.

Are you talking about the last to Battlefront games OR the last two Star Wars games? That is a big distinction. I am not a fan of the last two Star Wars games but I really enjoyed Battlefront.

Very interested in this. Battlefield and Star Wars. If they do this well, then I've found a new time-sink. :p

Looks like play testing will be done at SW Celebrations this month. I'm hoping we will have a beta test by late summer. I'm really excited.

Earlier than that, actually.

Yep that was what I referred to as the play test at SW Celebrations. I was hoping for an open beta for all by the end of the summer which I haven't seen referenced as of yet. I would guess we may get a hint about the timetable soon though.

The first two Battlefront games were cheap knockoffs of Battlefield. As I understand it, this one is being made by the actual Battlefield developers. That's why I'm optimistic for this one.

I believe a new trailer should be release next Friday the 17th so hopefully that shows some promise.

Rumor has it the game will be out on November 17th. We'll know for sure perhaps tomorrow.

I am quite excited for this game. I played the original 2 extensively with friends on the xbox in college.

Alleged first screenshot. I feel like I'm 10 years old looking at it... This is going to be one helluva year.

I'll have no reason to ever play Destiny again.

Remember all those wrecked space ships from the trailer yesterday? In Battlefront, you get to wreck 'em.

Somebody broke the media embargo...

Man, they must be going through some serious crunch time to get this released and playable on-time.

More details.

Sounds like they're saying those screengrabs are from the PS4... I really thought they were from a PC. Damn that's impressive.

As long as I can play an Ewok Sniper we are good.

Yub yub!
