What players say

Honestly the best battlefront game, runs well, looks good, plays good, gunplay is good, movement is good.

Used to play the originals and played a lot of battlefeild. the original was way funner. this feels sloppy, janky and the gameplay is generic. starter kit is crap. only way to practice is death, and unlike other entries it just feels random. i was excited to play and was met with pretty maps that felt empty. Bad controls which surprised me. dont recomend it. it has less features and fun than the OG
