It’s a shame because this game really needed MORE support than it needed “free content”.
This is the exact mistake EA / DICE and other Devs make; they take the philosophy that it’s better to release a half a**, buggy title that’s bloated with content rather than make a game that’s employs solid logic and stability.
IMO BF II is ten fold WORSE than BF I simply because the overall gameplay value was better in BF I ... sure it didn’t have a story but it also didn’t have so many glitches; you got a more consistent gameplay environment.
BF II is loaded with flawed logic, imbalanced characteristics, bugs, and server resolution issues that makes the game not worth it; even with “free content” ... and let’s talk about that btw ... we all saw how well the Crait DLC looked as it was compiled for BF II, yet Scariff is clearly just a port from BF I ... why bother? I’d have rather you spent the time to address gameplay quality issues rather than port in a map of lower visual quality ... they didn’t even port the key characters!
Star Wars BF II is the poster child for corner cuts and pacification by way of bribery. Rather than developing quality they threw out quantity and they’re not the only ones (we’re looking at you R* / TT).
It’s almost incredible to think that Gun put more effort into the quality of the F13 title; despite all of the legal challenges; that a crowd funded game ended up with a stable and balanced gameplay speaks volumes.
EA can absolutely forget about me buying Squadrons.
