SWBF2 Arcade Points
Hi Guys … just a passing question as I don't see any info in the FAQs. I'm sure we have all played Arcade and probably will continue to play the Custom Mode (esp. when you can't get a live game 🙂 )...

Hello @chuntery and of course @Tinogiggedy
In arcade, you earn BP by killing AI, but these points can only be used to buy heroes and enforcers in that match (the game should then not be set to "Free for all" but to "default" for player class).
The credit pay-out at the end of a game, 100 or 125, doesn't seem to depend on the score you get in the match at all. The time is directly related to the credit pay-out. So if you want to earn 125 credits from one arcade match, you must finish the match within about 20 seconds (if I am not mistaken).
Lol exactly, custom arcade, truly the most pointless place for BP seeing as you don't need really BP unless on default.
Thanks for the info about arcade credits being based on time. I always figured you had to get a certain amount of points, which to me makes more sense. Would only make sense they'd want to encourage players to actually do something to get the reward.
Hi guys,
I realise I am a year or so late into this convo. I presume some things have been changed since Dec 18 on this matter. I was looking for an answer to the original question too. For what its worth, currently I seem to be awarded 200 credits for every arcade fight I complete. The points awarded seem to vary but not in a logical manner that I can tell. As the points seem to be irrelevant, that doesn't matter I suppose. I don't generally change too many of the difficulty settings so not sure if this will affect the credits awarded though.
Apart from the obvious, I would appreciate any advice offered to me, taking into my account my circumstances. I am terrible with coordination so always struggle with 1st person shooting games like this.Thus, I tend to stick to sabre heroes only. My biggest gripe is not being able to play in multiplayer modes (even just to be able to access maps like crait or hoth galactic battles) using sabre heroes, as I'm not skilled enough to achieve this. I understand why this is not possible in offline mode too, but still disappointing. I think I am correct in saying the only way to achieve playing sabre heroes in large scale battles is through natural battle points progression.
Thanks,
Alf
