they destroyed good companies like pandemic studios who made star wars battlefront 1 and 2 (I still play 1 Lol) but now Battlefront 3 is coming out by ea so they will probably ruin it. 1.Overpriced dlc and dlc characters 2.over-monetised. |

Though I don't like the fact that EA shut down Pandemic, because they bought them EA has the rights to the Battlefront series, allowing DICE to make Battlefront. This could be a good thing since there's a lot of speculation that Battlefront 1 and 2 were inspired by the Battlefield franchise, namely Battlefield 1942 and possibly Battlefield 2.
I expect there to be not a massive amount of microtransactions, maybe something small like the Battlepack system in Hardline and Battlefield 4. Though I very highly doubt it, there's a chance that free content may come to Battlefront since DICE is giving out free content for Battlefield 4 such as the free weapons crate DLC, the newly remastered Battlefield 2 map, Dragon Valley, which just debuted on the CTE, and the community map which is currently being worked on.
Besides, if EA screwed up on Battlefront the fallout would be worse than Battlefield 4's launch since DICE would be upsetting Battlefront fans, Star Wars fans, and Battlefield fans. |

| I know I mentioned free DLC already but I completely forgot about the whole Battle of Jakku DLC they're giving out for free cause of the new movie. |

i find it funny how people think EA is the next anti christ but all they really do is add unneeded DLC and shut down online to games they made along time ago |

"but all they really do is buy up great dev studios and completely f*ck up their product, if not outright run them into the ground (see: Maxis, Westwood), have horrific privacy policies and forever-on DRM (see: Origin, EA's laughable competitor to Steam, which is arguably spyware; PC gamers who play EA titles are forced to use it... and EA simply bans some Origin users without cause), fragmenting games into DLC and publicly admit that they want microtransactions in all of their games (see: Mass Effect 3 for a notable example... and we're not even talking about the original ending), are just dumb (see: Battlefield 3 beta crash), have yearly releases of sports titles, instead of simply supporting a single title for 3-4 years with consistent updates (see: FIFA, Madden, etc.), are completely unoriginal (see: every dull and essentially nameless EA title ever), are asshats (see: EA customer support), treat their employees like dogsht (see: "EA spouse" revelations), complain about critic scores when they put out yet ANOTHER shtty game (see: Medal of Honor: Warfighter), completely destroy titles that were extremely hyped and should've been, by all means, good (see: Battlefront III, SimCity, Command & Conquer, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Dead Space 3... et cetera)"

Battlefront isn't even out yet, you can't really criticize it now and don't bring up space assault cause we all know nobody played multiplayer for space assault that gamemode was played less than CTF and 2-flag CTF |

no I have not because I don't play C&C
I also mainly play their older titles, with an exception of Sims 4 which didn't turn out so bad. |

20v20 servers loadouts AT-ATs on rails no prequel era
yet again, battlefront sounds kinda fun as a game, it's just that giving it the name battlefront seems more like a cash grab aimed at nostalgic fans than anything

Rush and Obliteration on Battlefield 4 have only 32 players in a server so 40 is a decent amount for Battlefront.
EA kind of has to put in loadouts considering most games these days let players select their own loadouts instead of dictating what weapons to use.
I'm kind of upset over the loss of the prequel era but you never know, it might make a return as DLC.
From what I've heard, the AT-AT's are only on rails for certain gamemodes like Walker Assault.
From what you're saying, it seems like you want a remaster of Battlefront II but that'd be very lazy on DICE's part and could play differently than Battlefront II due to factors such as destruction.

| For some reason any video I record in YouTube when uploaded is available in 1080p even though I recorded on a 900p monitor |

"Rush and Obliteration on Battlefield 4 have only 32 players in a server so 40 is a decent amount for Battlefront."
"Battlefield did it so it must be good, right?"
"EA kind of has to put in loadouts considering most games these days let players select their own loadouts instead of dictating what weapons to use."
"Other games do it so it's good, right?"
"I'm kind of upset over the loss of the prequel era but you never know, it might make a return as DLC."
And this is a good thing how? Simple: it isn't. EA splitting games up into DLC to sell at excessive prices should not be encouraged.
"From what I've heard, the AT-AT's are only on rails for certain gamemodes like Walker Assault."
And what have you heard on them actually appearing as pilotable in any other gamemodes, then?
"From what you're saying, it seems like you want a remaster of Battlefront II but that'd be very lazy on DICE's part and could play differently than Battlefront II due to factors such as destruction."
No, I want a game saying it's a Battlefront reboot to either try and be like Battlefront (which this really isn't beyond being a third person shooter set in Star Wars), or not use that title as a cash grab aimed at nostalgic gamers.

Not all servers run them at 32. I play on a 64 player Rush server. |

Guys.
Just, don't associate it at all with Battlefront.
Treat it as a brand new Star Wars game.
Even if it hasn't got a new name. |
