My Battlefront 2 Review
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a very good 1st/ 3rd person shooter published by EA and is one of the most popular and anticipated games of 2017. The game is based around all three different eras of the movie(Clone wars, Galactic Civil War, Post-Galactic Civil War). Before I get into this review, this is my opinion of what I made of the beta, new features that are going to be in the game and comparing the changes made from the 2015 Battlefront.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 is one of my most wanted games of this year and was soo glad I was able to play the beta when it was first released. I loved the gameplay and the immersion of battling on naboo's theed as a clone trooper or a battledroid. The new specialist class system is very well worked as well because it is a point based system so you need to play to be able to play as special characters like rey or darth maul.The space battles are also very fun playing, flying over fondor completing various objectives to destroy an imperial star destroyer as the rebels and as the empire you defend the objectives from the rebels. The game does also include star cards like the previous battlefront which give you small buffs in battle, but do not worry as there doesn't seem to be a pay to win system present in the game thus far.The game also includes a single player campaign following Iden Versio, the leader of inferno squad, after the battle of endor and recieves special orders from the emperor.
In the new Battlefront, we see many changes from the 2015 battlefront. We see that there are 4 times the maps, double the heroes and characters and more customisation of characters and weapons, giving players more to do in the game. The graphics have also been improved and is one of the key elements in immersing yourself in the game. From the beta, I thought the graphics were outstanding and really enjoyed playing through the battle of theed with the explosions and lasers flying across the map.
