Star Wars BF: Angry Joe Impressions!
I played around 50 games of the star wars battlefail beta on console...
Pros:
- Star wars theme
- Awesome sound effects
- Gorgeous graphics
- Darth Vader
- Decent net-code
- Survival co-op mode
- 3rd/First person shooter
Cons:
- Scrub friendly gun play
- Lack of destructibility
- Totally unbalanced WA mode
- Poor optimisation
- 900p/720p
- Generic drop zone mode
- Hero animations
- Darth Vader voice acting
- Glitches
- OP sniper, fast cooldown
- OP bubble shield fast cooldown
- Spawns
- E.A.
- No Private match
I had some fun playing SWBF beta, but ultimately the game felt very repetitive, that leads me to question longevity.
I don't believe this multiplayer only game is worth full retail price. Its competition have more maps, modes and a single player campaign.
Angry Joe brings up a lot of good points in the video, as he said the game feels "rushed." I will probably pick up SWBF a few months down the line when it has more modes, maps with all bugs patched. I wish E.A. had given Dice a longer development cycle.
How do you guys feel about the beta? Do you agree with Angry Joe's points, or will you be buying the game on release?
EDIT: I'm at to finding out that SWBF will have no private games at launch. 😏

That's it. I played plenty of WA and won just as much as the Rebels as I did Empire. The issue is with players not knowing what they're doing, not the game mode. -720p still looked beautiful to me. -I still liked Drop Zone, and I'm tired of hearing everything people don't like being called "generic." Is there any game mode that has the same rules as DZ? -The Hero animations are rather clunky -As is Vader's voice acting -I experienced very few glitches -I only got one kill with the sniper. I haven't had that much trouble sniping since Halo 3. -Use ion shot on bubble shield; cooldown should be extended though -I was never spawn trapped. In fact I thought the spawn were very good; I was never caught out in the open against an enemy when using default spawn. Partner spawn is your own fault if you get killed. -EA isn't a point. Personally I feel like people want this game to fail.
