Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Two stars for incredible graphics and sound. The authenticity to star wars is in its own class. In itself, not a bad title. I guess I was expecting too much from EA/DICE, as usual.I'd regret purchasing this game if it wasn't a gift. I'll enjoy it as much as I can with friends, but there are things potential buyers must know. While it's aesthetic appeal, and semi fun game modes are in fact enjoyable, the fact of the matter can be listed quite simply: 1.) No similarities to the old games in the series. This does not stick to it's roots in any sense. It feels like battlefields cousin... Not in the good way. 2.) No galactic conquest. Perhaps the best game type of old. 3.) No old fashioned AI conquest. While survival mode is fun, it quickly loses its appeal. The battles game type is literally "kill confirmed" from call of duty. Very, very disappointing. You think at the very least they could get that part right. Wrong. 4.) Season Pass. This is a complete and utter slap in the face from EA and DICE. They've done this in battlefield 3 and 4. Battlefield 4 premium was the absolute biggest waste of money I've ever spent. I'm afraid the same is happening with battlefront. Release the vanilla game, leave out 75% of the features and maps, then sell them to you in the form of a season pass, or pay the max price for little chunks. Clever marketing gimmick, very poor business practice. 5.) Homing launcher... DICE absolutely had to add a weapon that mimics the very thing that killed battlefield 4. A stinger/IGLA that yes, locks on to ground troops. While not completely overpowered, it's still a nuisance and unnecessary. If anything, put it as a star card pickup... Not a weapon loadout. 6.) No space battles. Seriously? COME ON EA. COME ON DICE. DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE BEGGING TO CREATE A GAME. DICE has a chance to redeem themselves, but I predict that will not happen. Battlefield 4 is in no way similar to this title, and I'm trying my best not to compare the two, but that's what I'm expecting. Will change my review based on any improvements/expansions/additional game modes.
