Titanfall = Great Game...
Also, a failed game, holding back extras, then release as overpriced DLC, customers not taking to it, so eventually forcing the DLC on you for free, to which no-one wants = failed game...
I still play it daily though :smiley: But I paid £5 for it, its final worth after EA stopped d!cking about...
I hope Star Wars don't end up the same..

Very empty game with little substance even the full game with more modes wont be enough to justify this price,people are crazy paying £35-£50 for a ps4 version with dumbed down graphics and slower framerate

It's crazy that people are willing to pay this much for around 30 mins of fun ...
I know it is personal opinion, but this game is not a Battlefront game, just a cash in on COD Lite (if that was even possible)

Standard price for a non legit key though. Admittedly about £1 less than others.

I'm confused... What do you mean by 'Non Legit Key' pls.
I have bought quite a few deals off CDKeys and never had a problem. I didn't realise anything was anything other than legit.

I loved it mate. I didn't really get into Battlefield 3/4 or any of the recent dumbed down COD's but really enjoyed BF Star Wars. We had a game last night in a party of 6 and was really good fun.

Enjoyed the beta more than I expected, but £25 is my limit on this one.
Hoping for a good regional deal on the Origin store.

Patience you must have... If you only knew the power of the 6 months XP I'll have by then:stuck_out_tongue:
Given the beta's stability and success, it's going to be very popular game and popular games will sell without reductions.

Lots of stuff about it- would have been quicker for you to search yourself rather than reply.
Did you like it because of the gameplay or because it was SW? And I was playing yesterdayand in my team it looked like 6 or so players were acting together as a "sub-team"- were you the character with the Princess Leia bun hairdo? :wink:

If it had a campaign, I’d probably buy it…
I thought the demo was pretty good, but I like games where I can play either single or multiplayer, depending on my mood :smiley:

OH CRAP...has it not got campaign mode?
jaystan
12 Oct 152#20
Haha no but it is a lot better in a team working together. Especially if you are the rebels trying to take down a walker. I love Star Wars so that does give me some bias but i did also really like the gameplay on it. Only thing is it is DICE. On launch the game servers might mean it doesn't exactly play the same way :smiley:

I was very excited for this when the first announcements and videos came out. Had a go of the beta. Thought it was OK. Too much like re skinned battlefield. But i am sure it will do OK. But I do not think I will buy it. I can just see it now premium, boost packs, Old battlefront map dlc and I cannot be bothered.
Graphics were very good.
Heat added for a good price for those that do want it.

Was GTA 5 popular on the PC? If yes, how did I buy a popular game at the massive reduction of 19 quid a couple of days before it was released?
But good point about the XP- a newbie starting out will get slaughtered!

It could happen I guess and I'll buy it again if it does (already pre-ordered on PS4).
GTA V is not the best example as it was 19 months too late for many... I never considered buying it for PC and never will.... But it was popular, yes :smiley:

Well I've played it on both my PC and my PS4 with both betas and I like it a lot. Though I'll be getting the PC version because even on my PS4 with a SSHD the caching is kinda slow when moving around for the rocks.
MBeeching
12 Oct 15#29
That is certainly a concern! I absolutely despised the first couple of hours as I was just cannon fodder :stuck_out_tongue:
Considering it was capped at level 5 the full game will be even more frustrating. There are definitely some balance issues as top players can dominate dropzone with insane K/D ratios.
The graphics didn't quite match the original gameplay reveal but they were pretty stunning overall.
I was also pleasantly surprised with the frame rate at 2160p. Guess the Frostbite engine is very well optimised these days.

Apart from the terrible spawn system and balance problem (Rebels have a hard time on Hoth) i've enjoyed the Beta. Even though it doesn't compare to the original Battlefronts i'll still be buying it.

Jaystan banned again? C'mon...
On topic, only had a chance to play the Beta briefly, and admittadly only the Tatooine level (on PC and PS4). Meh. Fallout will win out for my game purchase next month :smiley: also, from that level, I found the PS4 and PC versions were pretty much the same graphically, so I will wait for the PS4 version price to drop...

Not a bad game! The odd annoying bug but that's expected now days from new games. Been playing it off and on over the weekend, and I'll try get in a few more games before the beta ends. But I'll be waiting for the price to drop a little more, and hopefully by then the game will also run smoother.

Can I ask why the PS4 wins if you claim the graphics are the same? Surely you'll be waiting longer for a cheaper price for console.

13 Oct 15#50
Can I also complain about the full game being short based on a beta with only a small part of the main game available? It sounds like a fun thing all the kids are doing now, especially those who never played Star Wars Battlefront 2.
m.ad
13 Oct 151#51
Personal preference. There is the argument of physical vs digital (I could buy the PS4 version for £40 and get £20 back if sold within a few weeks, so would only have paid £20 for the "experience", for example). I also prefer collecting trophies and multiplayer on the PS4 for some reason - again, that would be down to personal preference :smiley:

How you could pay for this before reviews is beyond me. The beta shows a staggering lack of depth and unbalanced gameplay. Yes it looks and sounds amazing but apart from that it seems a big disappointment so far.

I was running it on PC at steady 60fps at 4k resolution and it looked pretty stunning. We know you are locked in graphically on PS4 so PC quality will depend on your hardware, console is always going to be inferior graphically (minus a few poor console ports that shouldn't even exist)
Can someone find a cheap price for this game on ps4? thanks.
imdurc
13 Oct 151#63
Yeah, I wasn't getting any enjoyment from the beta until I hit rank 5 and finally picked up the jetpack. Even then, I still think the spawn system needs worked on, heavily. In drop-zone, it can spawn you on the opposite side of the map, therefore making it impossible to reach the escape pod in time. And the escape pods can sometimes fall next to the enemy team's spawn area, which is fun...
Lastly, the walker mode was horrible when playing as rebels. Mainly due to people in the AT-ST vehicles that stop you in your tracks. And of course, the weapon fire from the main AT-ATs themselves!

Why buy a grey import key when you can get a dodgy ps4 account with any game of your choosing for 20$. Get account set as primary.. Away you go.
