I played the beta of Battlefront and was pleasantly surprised, still doesn't feel like a Battlefront game, but it is a pretty damn good Star Wars game in general. Also for anyone worried that it would be a Battlefield reskin, it's not. It has similarities but is way different.
When you say it doesn't feel like Battlefront, then how would you describe it? And in your opinion, is that a bad thing or not?

After playing the Beta myself, it would seem DICE has succeded, Battlefront is incredibly fun, and not at all like battlefield as some have worryed, its definitely worthy of the title of Battlefront to me atleast.
1st and 3rd person both feel great, vehicles are interesting, and most of all its Star Wars in every way, it looks, sounds, and feels like Star Wars, and in general its fun to play.
Remember, you'll never truely know how good a game is until you play it yourself

Well, im not Pika but in my opinion its not a bad thing, while it doesnt exactly feel like the classic battlefront, its certainly what i would expect a modern day battlefront to be like.

So it doesn't suck? I am a bit shocked I must admit, everything since the announcement has been bad news after bad news. The best thing I heard, was no microtransactions, that's it! I mean, this game will never be better then Battlefront 2 will it? I know it won't, spacebattles were beyond fun in that game, but maybe I'll get it now. Great to hear!

Honestly, Star Wars Battlefront is exactly what DICE needed it to be, and im having a blast with it, its definitely worth playing.
The Beta is open on all platforms ya know, Xbox One, PS4, and PC, so you can play it aswell, the beta ends Monday.

I wouldn't say it's what I personally would expect from a modern day Battlefront to be, but yeah, the beta at least is really good. And I wouldn't necessarily say it being different is good or bad, I really like how it used to be, but the things they've changed for the most part aren't bad. One thing I really would like though, is that I wish you actually got into the vehicles rather than just sort of calling them in as a power up.

I hate being rebels in this. Every time I'm a rebel, I get brutally ass raped by all kinds of vechicles. Was hoping to find a hero token (still think those token pick ups are dumb), but had no luck.

If I must he honest, it doesn't seem very balanced. I feel that the Empire always has the upper hand and winning is really luck based if you are the Rebel Alliance. Which sucks so badly for me, because I am such a die-hard fan of the Rebel Alliance! I mean fuck the Star Destroyer, I want the Mon Calamari cruiser! I will take Admiral Akbar over any imperial commander, even Grand Admiral Thrawn! And yes I love Star Wars enough to know all of that! Very proud of that fact.

How you're meant to win as the rebels is use one of the ships abilities (fuck if I can remember the name of it) to tie up the legs of the AT AT's like in the movies, all it requires is to do a rather easy minigame and the AT AT's go down pretty quickly. Only thing is no one knows about this because there's no tutorial or anything, I only found out about it after doing shit loads of games.

You mean the T-47 airspeeder also known as the snowspeeder? The ones with the towcables? They seem to work sometimes, and othertimes not so much, at least for me.

Fuck. The beta ended today, didn't it? I kept hearing about this but never knew there was actually an open beta. I would've played if I had known, but I guess it's too late now.

Yeah the positioning for them to work was pretty confusing and the odd time I got the prompt to do it I would end up boosting in to the AT AT and killing myself, but I've got it to work once.
