I nabbed the [Xbox One] Star Wars Battlefront DLC over Christmas as well and personally think it was really worth it, but only because I'm not having any trouble finding matches. Very recently, my bandwidth was improved to a reliable 3MB per second so I am now able to play online. Before, the connection was too unstable and I was often relegated to offline modes. Skirmish was a godsend but it was limited. Multiplayer is so much fun now! Only once or twice have I looked for a particular match (like Cargo) in the new DLC and not found anything. I just back out and make a general DLC playlist search and am hooked up right away. Maybe I've just been lucky.
I bought this game more than a year ago and am only now having a blast with it. The combination of updates, Hutt Contracts, New DLC maps and modes, heroes and my improved bandwidth have all helped redeem the game in my eyes. Even the base maps are fun for me now. I would heartily recommend the game and the DLC to everyone unless you have poor internet or there aren't enough players online. Then the DLC is a definite pass. Thing is, without the DLC you're only getting half a game in my opinion. If the player count ever evaporates for the DLC maps I hope EA make them and all modes available in Skirmish.
Thanks! I am relieved to know that there is hope for me to play the DLC! I'm a big Star Wars fan. Maybe there just weren't so many players here in our region during the time that I logged on (holiday season)? Whatever it is, I look forward to trying again this weekend. I'll let you know how it goes! I really love the game though. Hope they would implement single player campaigns in SWBF2! I'll drop Dota 2 for that one!
