@grrr33nflashThat sucks. Originally I came from Battlefield 3 before starting with BF2015 and this game following up.So the real action and immersion for me will always be 1st person, even if I can't see my cool armor skin.I hated it first back then that 3rd person is a thing in Battlefront, but well that's a tradition so I'll probably never see such a game without 3rd person.I thought all the time that 3rd person was the meta and therefore mandatory, but since yesterday I came to realize that 1st person works really good too.The aim is better overall and even if I don't use the specialist but a different soldier class all the time I can make a good kill series too.The minimap tracers also still tell a lot about where someone is coming from, which helps to be not that disadvantaged in the infamous corner situations.

Phasma's Cape used to become all excited when Han's Detonite was beneath it. Anyone knows if this is still true?

Phasma's staff strikes were supposed to be fixed so it's "easier to line up all three strikes" and less buggy, but it's probably worse than ever before.Don't use that 3rd strike dmg increase card because probability of you hitting someone with the third strike is now somewhere at 1 to 100.

You can cool down your weapon while being pushed, pulled, choked etc.Boba's concussion rocket overheats main weapons and cancels abilties in the process that can't even overheat or even replace the main weapon, like Lando's sharpshooter, Han Solos rapid shots, Leias E-11as well as Finn's left and right ability. Pretty sure this is known to everyone who has played against Boba but I'm writing this because it's absolutely annoying and cheesy imo and I'm sure it has not always been like this.Overheating the main weapon, fine, but also cancelling abilities that aren't even using that gun while still overheating at the same time? Come on...

Yoda has the worst and most outdated star card deck of all heroes and it's only making him not unplayable because his base abilities as well as his small hitbox size allow for a very fun and dynamic gameplay in infantry modes regardless.Seriously, it's an absolute no-brainer which cards to chose for Yoda.Use Feel the Force and Agility for all modes.In HvH mode, use Opposing the Dark Side, for infantry modes Jedi Mentor, laughable as this max dmg reduction of 8% is.It's just as simple as that, there aren't any other really good starcards to chose from.Enduring Presence: Works against you as the ability duration timer won't stop even if the extra HP from Unleash are spentIt's also not possible to manually cancel the ability, which really doesn't help with the problem. Yes, this effectively means extra cooldown time once you prematurely run out of those extra HP.Unleashed: Works against you as the max dmg output of the Unleash ability gets capped at max 160 dmg out of the normal max 190 dmg. Use this if you have no problem with only being able to kill normal soldier classes and only if the Unleash ability is fully charged up. Not a good choice for areas with fewer targets at least and in choke points you'll most likely not need that extra range. Either way, make sure that Unleash ability is fully charged up before releasing.Earned it I have: Has been tested and reported to actually do nothing. Whatever is the case, that card really isn't needed if you have someone spamming shots at you because Unleash can charge up really fast anyways and won't help you against cautious people.Size Matters Not: The massively increased cooldown timer is not an option. Extra HP from Feel the Force card don't count into the regeneration pool.Using this card cripples the key elements of Yoda, his dynamic gameplay, and turns it into a boring waiting game like waiting until Anakin's magnet refreshes in order to be able to engage in combat again.Lightsaber Mastery: Overall not needed - you need to force a fast victory against a saber user right away or die because Yoda's block is too unreliable, no matter how many attack stamina is left. Absorbing blaster shots doesn't drain much stamina either and there are still dash strikes to win time.TL;DR: A lot of "sounds good, doesn't work" style cards. Same goes for Darth Maul.

@TRlALON But can't you take out your like secondary(undercover team rapid fire,sharp shot pulse cannon) when your primary is overheated?

@soapy_catusesYeah, but it's still annoying to lose out that first ability like that. Also for most others like Han you can only try to cooldown after your middle ability gets canceled or use detonite and shoulder charge. I mean that only works if you have anther ability ready like Finn.

@TRlALON Definitely agree on Phasma. I was playing her last night for the first time in a while. Her staff was shockingly clunky and hard to line up well. It left me confused thinking "I remember slicing through people with this staff or did I? This is bad." lol

@ArchAngeL-PCX Yeah the strikes are much worse now. Used to demolish with It. Used her recently and trying to knock down an Anakin was harder as her staff was slower
