Ok what's the deal, I post my thoughts and they just Automagically dissappear, and don't get posted.
So I'm not that impressed with the new road map.
Why isn't Obi Wan released with Grevious? And why only one new map in 4 months? Coruscant guard is mentioned and since it is, Coruscant map should also be released in that time period as one map in 4 months is pathetic imho.
And also, only one new play mode but not until Feb? Well I think some tinkering with what's already available wouldn't hurt.
I haven't played much lately but I got on and noticed Ewok hunt is now permanent. Cool but after playing it a few times I was yearning for something different. Earlier iterations of Battlefront included other hunt modes such as wampa hunt and I think Wookie hunt. I propose there be a permanent "Hunt Mode" and within it, have Ewok, Wookie, Wampa, Jawa, Geonosian and possibly some new creature to hunt like say Gungans . Players like variety and one map, Ewok hunt gets stale being repeated over and over again.
Also, it wouldn't hurt to bring back Jetpack cargo as a permanent mode and have it cycle through all the Jetpack cargo maps on a regular rotation that have been released so far. That seems like an easy no brainer thing to do. More content and options can't hurt, only help.
Same man, I loved the game at launch. I thought we’d see some more actual content (maps/modes etc). It’s also changing in the wrong direction for my taste. Picking where I can spawn and cards for Hero’s to last longer is no substitute for real content.
maps and content? Because this updated roadmap suggests there wasn't ever going to be all that much content. "
Every thing has to be signed off before the release of the game, so I believe this has always been their business plan. We already know that most of the things they have been giving us has been in the games data since launch. They still would of taken most of the Dev's over to BF5 regardless too.
They've made more than enough money off the Star Wars fans here to be happy, by doing the least that they can.
Nothing on arcade im very dissapointed.
I'll compose my thoughts at home, but right now it feels like I've been Flash Banged.
'Cause I can't see anything ahead of me and everything is moving ridiculously slowly. You guys are slowly killin' me.
Also I hope Grievous comes out before Red Dead.
I would like to have them answer as well. They said it would previously.
They previously announced the N-1 for Arcade and stated all new planets would come to Arcade: therefore, we should get the N-1 and Geonosis though they aren't listed. I am almost certain we will get the heroes. I also think the large Arcade mode will come after Feb (which is when the road map stops).
Really hoping the STAP and BARC Speeder will eventually be added to other TCW era maps.
Awesome thanks! Cant wait for Grevious! Kenobi should be pretty amazing as well.
It just turned Fall and now we learn Anakin won't be available until almost Spring 2019. Pffft. Leave it to EA to always underwhelm low expectations. In fact, that should be their company motto.
3) New heroes and villains.
4) New real game (not this stupid Hunt nonsense) modes like Drop Zone, Infiltration, Cargo, Turning Point, WS.
Anything not listed above should be ignored or put off and forgotten. No more Hunt modes, no more gimmicks, no ****. The only functional game modes are GA and HvV. Everything else is basically ignored. Extraction would be played a lot if there's more than 2 effin maps.
one new GA map.. not acceptable.. that's 2 GA maps in 1.25 years, or one every 7.5 months.
But honestly, I did not expect new fresh content at all. Cool.
I'm a little exasperated by this timeline. I believe the original plan, had you not changed the progression system, that CW content would have been available in March. Why are you not just putting out all four characters out at once and create a season? Is this to keep interest in the game? Or QA test on the new character, one by one, have bugs or are OP? I can already guess that General Grievous is going to be OP, and those that rightfully argue that the Dark Side is OP in HvV, this will make things worse. I know the community has been anticipating all these characters for a long time now, and arguably should have been included at launch. I still don't understand why, if you're looking to make more off this game, that you just didn't create a DLC season pass like with BF1? So why still string this along, and just add all CW characters by next month?
The info is nice and yet very disappointing. Good luck taking us away from RDR2 with the that lineup.
I regret wasting credits on the clone skins already.
I hear ya. I was playing daily up until a couple weeks ago when I abruptly stopped. I finally played again yesterday to try out the new squad system and quit after 2 GA matches. The content drip isn’t really helping either, more annoying than anything. Feel they should release Grev and Obi at the same time. I have no interest to try and level Grev in HvV to not have Obi to level when playing light side. Same will be with the release of Dooku while waiting for Ani. Also felt the newer large scale mode was coming sooner than Feb.
Wait wait wait... the banner on the forum says the October roadmap is live.... Does this mean we're not getting another roadmap until the end of November?
Thank you for this tiny update because this game is getting too repetitive and redundant, mostly because of the limited and small number of planets and locations.
That makes the game boring in the end. EA DICE if you wish this game a future, then give us more and not in this really slow way.
Because you have the contract for STAR WARS DICE/EA you can do as you please, but if you had some competition regarding the STAR WARS francise you might think differently.
Lucasarts back in the days was making way better games than you EA DICE and more games as well and there was no micro transactions ****. Also back then, once you owned a game it was a complete game and not like now where we have 1/4 of a game and still pay to get pieces of it.
Even the old Battlefront game is way better than yours regarding game play. Graphic may not be as great as it can be today but that was only limited by the time tech advance. I really wish that Lucasart would become a thing again, but I know it will not as long as some certain people presently is in charge.
Please fix matchmaking first please. This game is hands down the worst when it comes to fair match. Just add a little team scramble to prevent buildup of good on one team and bad on the other.
More Luke skins, more skins for officers,more skins for specialist, more maps, more game modes. Come on man!!!!
So... they're going to add ONE map?! The originals had maps out the wazoo! Cmon, the maps should be the EASIEST thing to pump out, and the things that get old the fastest! Glad it's a clone wars map though.
Actually, skins will be the easiest thing to pump out. When you take into account modeling, UV-ing, texturing, VFX (dust, blowing leaves, etc) and lighting, THEN having to redo tons of that because someone at the top doesn't like it... maps take MUCH more time.
Also, there's this WONDERFUL (sarcastic) thing in 3D referred to as the model's topology. Long story short, you're trying to make your object ONLY using flat squares and triangles. That's it. Further more, you get this nasty thing called "edge flow" which dictates how those squares have to be lined up, and if your edge flow isn't the greatest, your model looks horrible if you try and smooth it a bit later.
As a fellow Xbox user, I find it incredibly odd that this only effects some of us.... I still freeze while connecting, but if I just wait for about a minute it returns to normal and connects.
And then switch back to my account and bam yep definitely something with the accounts side of things.
