February Star Wars Battlefront Update: 5 Reasons to Get Excited
EA & DICE Are Digging Into Feedback | ||||||
 | ||||||
EA and DICE recently told gamers that they are "reviewing reports and feedback across the board" based on the January update. The companies are "aware that some of you within the community do not agree with some of the balance changes" and that "some of the bug fixes outlined seem to have not resolved some reported issues (looking at you 'Playing the Objective')." A Playing the Objective trophy bug fix appeared in the January update's change log but many gamers say that the bug still exists. EA and DICE are telling gamers that a permanent fix will come in the February update. The February update's change log isn't confirmed but it's clear that there is potential for quite a bit of change. Not just bug fixes for problems either. EA and DICE plan to address some of the issues gamers are having with game balance. In a post on its forums, EA's confirmed some changes to weapon balance. The "Bowcaster and Homing shot will be getting further tweaks to bring them back in line where we feel they should be" and the February update will "include weapon buffs against air vehicles, adjustments to barrage damage, DLT19 adjustments." We're also excited because EA's revamped the way you can provide it with feedback about these balance issues and bugs. Instead of a free-for-all on the Technical Forums, the new outlet is broken down into different categories like Weapons & Star Cards, Maps & Modes, and Matchmaking. This is going to make it easier for gamers to deliver feedback about the January update and the February update when it arrives. It's also going to make it easier for the two companies to pick up on this feedback and get to work on fixes. | ||||||

What this game needs is a Campaign mode. I was so hoping it would have one, but its just another PvP, and frankly when you are not the greatest at using a controller, it gets frustrating getting sniped by higher level gamers to the point I turn it off and go back to Destiny. Maybe a 6v6 matchup, fewer players on the map would make it better, at least give us a choice of how many opponents we want to face off against. Graphics are one thing, but game play, if it is too frustrating, makes the game not so good.

What are you talking about? Destiny is 10x times harder than battlefront.

hahahaha, learn how to play the game newb. It reminds me somewhat of Halo but a Star Wars version. Again, learn how to play (or read the review regarding no campaign and don’t waste your money? simple)

This is dumb, cause why would we need an xp boost when most of the players are already max lvl?!?!?

In case you hadn’t noticed, there are already hoth maps for walker assault AND FS. Not sure why we need two hoth maps for these game modes …

Need to have split screen multiple player. It stinks when you can’t play with someone at the house online.

Ea need to fix this silly bad connection to the server game will be unplayable issue in yellow/red writing. It appears almost every MP session on Xbox One. There’s nothing wrong with my internet! Try flying a vehicle & have this happen to you! KABOOM!! Cheap servers & the players suffer for it! You don’t get any of this with COD. I still love SWBF though. Is anyone else having these issues?

EA is working with Visceral Games to make an open world Star Wars game, which should satisfy your list for singleplayer. Bioware might make a game too, but don’t quote me on that. There’s plenty of games planned for the future, so get amped!

102,187 hours. very cool. if you never sleep or stop playing, you’ll get a spiffy new Leia costume in just over 11 years.

I have yet to come across an online publication that speaks about the real problem plaguing this game… match-making. I’m pretty tired of reading articles that acknowledge there have been issues, then hype the upcoming update, which usually results in nothing more than nerfing or buffing weapons. Stop it! If we can’t play the game because the match-making system is so horrendously horrible, then what’s the point?!? EA/DICE needs to be held accountable for this gaming atrocity. Write about that.

Hey Dice! My only problem with battlefront 3 is that in Walker Assault I seems to me that the rebels have a far greater chance the empire to win. I suggest raising the damage to the Walkers just a tad.

This game was released half finished so the makers could make as much money as possible releasing it in line with the film. Battlefront 2 was such a brilliant game in comparison this is total cr@p.
