Is Star Wars Battlefront 2 as fun as the first one (2015)?
This is what I liked about SWB 2015:
-Hero Hunt
-Cargo (Jet Pack Cargo looks kinda dumb).
-Random Powerups scattered on the map (my favorite part).
-The traits.
-Star Cards.
-I loved just about everything.
What I wanted from SWB 2015:
-Maps with better hiding spaces in the enemy's base. lol
-A Free For All Blast mode.
What features in EA SWB 2 would suit my fancy?
My two favorite modes Cargo and Hero Hunt are broken because of broken heroes, out of bound glitches, OP hero health, scatter gun, and ee-4. That's why I haven't played it in months and am not looking forward to playing it ever again. lol They left it broken, and that makes me mad.
Let me sun it up, if you like Star Wars, the clone wars, a great SW score and some cool maps but suck at shooters play Bf2. Also if saber spam and heroes is your thing play Bf2, it’s a minimal skill but still fun starwars experience for the masses.
If you like Starwars, or if you don’t, but want a lot more competitive 3rd person experience that’s not cod, that also has more balanced gameplay then play bf15. The guys that complain about bacta/bg mostly suck because there’s a ton of simple counters.
Most bf2 so called elites, as they like to call themselves, that I’ve played with didn’t last long on bf15. Even $5000 tournaments with free entry wasn’t enough to get them over.
"The guys that complain about bacta/bg mostly suck because there’s a ton of simple counters."
Yeah as if there's no way for experienced players to then again prepare and react against such counterplays while using bacta and stuff.
The game offers a lot of tools and there are reasons why the "meta" revolves around the same spectrum all the time. Obviously because it works, and not only against bad players.
"Most bf2 so called elites, as they like to call themselves, that I’ve played with didn’t last long on bf15"
Being good on one game doesn't mean that you're going to be great at the other one at day 1 too, regardless if you come from games that are considered hardcore competitive or another casual shooter like BF2015 and vice versa.
Also people stay or leave games depending how much fun they have there, so what exactly are you proving here? How good someone is or not isn't the real reason why people are playing games, just whether they want to invest themselves further into it or not.
Whatever, acting like BF2015 is some kind of renown hardcore game makes me chuckle anyways.

No by/buy an means necessary
They both was different from the game modes too/2 the pros &/and *
The add-onns/addons &/add take-aways/takeaways from both games
One/1/I Had like a 2/Two player Co-Op
Play at home 2/two player play with friends online Co-Op
Love hearing the boomer analogy, they’re in such desperate need of a Mp game they can actually play without be demolished, not many boomers and old timers in cod from my playing. This game is full of them, toxic boomers and adults picking on and trying to hang with the kiddies. Then they’re the ones constantly trying to dictate what the game needs and what it doesn’t to fit into their lame play style. This game is 99% spam, period, the ones that don’t see that, well there’s the problem.
@xProdicateWho hurt you? Bringing some generation stuff into this doesn't make any sense.
Are you talking about the same people older than you that have played many great games that came out before the Battlefront reboot and which were less casual overall than that?
I’ve went off subject far to much, as to the op, chances are if you really do like 15 you’ll probably not care much for bf2, it’s a totally different feeling game other than the name and the fact it’s 3rd person. Again, just going by the average numbers of most I meet in game.
Most guys don’t seem to cross over much that I know, meaning most bf2 guys I know dislike or even hate bf15, and most 15 guys don’t like bf2. The 2 games almost feel like they were made by different developers.
Still, you may like both, many love bf2 so don’t listen to others and 2nd hand info, try it for yourself, it’s the only way you’ll know. Also bf2 really caters to premades, so if you love playing with a lot of friends you may really like it.
That said I’ve also met some of the coolest older guys, heck I’m n a discord with them, all awesome guys but also mature guys. If you were on the old forums you would remember the typical groups, you know, all the so called know it all’s.
Most of them I knew were older guys that constantly griped about the gameplay, about lack is health buffs, speeder bikes, the infantry roll that sabers couldn’t hit/lack of skill btw. We went from a fairly balanced game in the beginning to a total unbalanced spam fest.
Same with HvV, the same groups that griped about the old HvV over and over until they got the current version that’s a total mess. It is what it is though, so forgive me for griping myself , I’m no better than the ones I describe, hopefully the next game will be great, even more, hopefully we have a next game.
I see. Btw what platform are you playing on?
Premade teams were definitely an issue on BF2015 as well on PC, so I'm not sure you encountered the same people from clans who took/take this game way too serious and pubstomped servers just as it happened in BFII, alongside other aspects of showing very poor sportsmanship.
I mean congrats, these guys act all cocky because they clinge on destroying the leftover of a dead casual game, with large parts of the other elite players who could be a real competition having moved on since a year ago. Mad respects.
The drama and flamefest that was going on in the chat even without those people involved, it was an absolute disgrace and unfortunately happened not only sometimes.
Not even talking about the same cheaters who, after all this time, still have nothing better to do than using hacks in this game.
I hate to say so, but I have only few good memories of the BF2015 community left and it contributed a lot to me not returning to the game on a regular basis.
I can agree that premade teams or squad-stacking should've never been a thing, for both games. No matter on which end of the stick (even as the stack member) I am, it just kills the drive to continue.
At least such things, in BFII, have ceased to some extent as many of the tryhardy clans there have moved on since a long time ago too. We still have emergent clans etc. but those are way less a pain in the rear... yet.
It's an unfortunate pair of Battlefront and DICE implementing their usual stuff they normally use for Battlefield games, like no real matchmaking.
And parts of the communities who delight in abusing such features, of course.
