Difficult to say, you better try it out yourself. Anyways, let me tell you what I spontaneously like about this game more than BF2015:
- A more balanced weapon and class ability layout, less cheesy gadgets and other crappy op stuff. At least if we're talking about the normal soldier classes and not the reinforcement classes.
- No more roll-exploiting
- Almost all heroes being somewhat useful and sustainable in greater modes and not only Bossk and Krennic
- Supremacy mode. Conquest map design with a second phase taking part on the own or enemy dreadnought for real Star Wars battle feelings.
- Supremacy mode. Nice map design that doesn't favour camping and spawnkilling THAT much as the maps from Walker Assault in BF2015.
- Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Prequel memes.
- Visually stunning maps, same in starfighter modes.
- HvH is like the Hero Blast mode mod from BF2015
- Great mods
- More players
- Less cheaters. No Lefty and the other losers who keep sucking Coltonon's D to this day.
I can't tell you much about Cargo and other infantry only modes etc. because I only play HvH and the greater modes.
Unfortunately, nothing you said really stood out to me as intriguing. I don't wanna play another Call of Duty or Battlefield. I liked the quirky Lightheartedness of 2015's SWB2015. There's STILL no free for all, and they ruined Cargo for those who liked how it felt before. I like small 6v6/8v8 game modes. I don't know if this game has anything that would appeal to me now that Cargo is more fast paced and that "cheesy gadgets" are gone like you said. I can't "try out" the game. That's a $60 demo. lol
Can I turn invisible? Is the Laser Trip Mine back? Is there anything not serious about the competitive multiplayer in this game at all? lol -_-
I would play the old SWB 2015, but they left it broken. Scatter Gun, EE-4, and bad teammates ruin it. And Palpatine, Leia, and sometimes Luke ruin Hero Hunt ☹️
Absolutely zero like bf15, bf2 literally sucks by comparison other than maybe HvV modes. Cheese and spam are 99% of bf2’s makeup with little to no skill required, just literally spam everything and you’ll do well or okay with 20 man squads like everyone else .
It has awful small modes, maps aren’t far behind as design goes, gunplay is beyond bad and balance is even worse, then there’s no private matches, tons of hero spam, reinforcement spam, choke points everywhere, tons of grenade spam, and unlimited shock/stun/force spam. If that’s your thing then bf2 is the game for you.
Oh yeah, ttk is like 20 minutes with the unlimited health buffs and damage reductions, and don’t forget that tons of wall hacks are actually a thing made in the game, then almost every hero has an aimbot of some form, sabers and gun heroes alike. So again, if you seriously do like bf15 chances are you’ll abhor bf2.
Let me also add bf2 is not good for the solo player. most players are in huge GA squads and the same goes for HvV. That’s fine if the game had any form of normal matchmaking but it doesn’t, it has the worst matchmaking I’ve seen in any game and worse yet I’ve read it’s that way on purpose.
Bf15 separated the top players most matches, not put them on the same team vs level 1 randoms. This is especially bad for new players vs the sweats be it GA or HvV. HvV has also become as toxic as any game with 3 and 4 max levels using exploits like Finn for basically unlimited health reduction going against noobs that have no clue, also happens in most GA matches with choke points.
The above is why we need a totally new and revamped battlefront 3 from scratch. Keep the good aspects of 15’s infantry play and maybe bf2’s hero play, but above all add balance and make it a little more skill based instead of mindless button spam. Then add back modes like cargo and dropzone along with private matches and map selection and server options like battlefield.
