Update from EA - sounds good

Never that big a deal to me, always understood the beta had limitations for beta sake.

I love loot crates back to Mass effect3 , they had 20, 50, and 99 thousand priced crates.  It was an outstanding compliment to a game that featured diverse play styles with the different classes and species variation of that class.

Battlefront 2, the classes are good, but the ability for players to diversify their skills by loot crates  bodes well. To know that in a single game session if a hero character appears twice, the way one player may play that hero may be completely different from the way someone else may play him and have him customized to reflect more their play style.

Other things in the loot crates like parts is another bonus to give players more control over development of their char and how they play.

Also its better than the Hutt contracts IMO, instead of everyone copying each other to try and find the same gun, you can toy around with modifications and tweaking a weapon.

Im NOT the greatest player but the advantage is in the skill, and the cards will allow you to be more individualized in how you approach the game i feel. I liked what I experienced in BF2

This isn't gimmicky like battlefront where bacta and jump packs ruined the game.
