Fives 393 Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 http://i66.tinypic.com/34y3dcg.jpg Star Wars Battlefront reminds me why I love Star Wars. Its skirmishes unfold across iconic planets, with gorgeous landscapes and sweeping vistas on a massive scale. Endor's trees dwarf us. Tatooine's desert stretches for miles. And when the battle music reaches its peak, and I glide over Hoth's frozen trenches, I'm right back in my childhood living room, watching The Empire Strikes Back for the first time. But Battlefront lacks the longevity that makes its source material great. It offers initial engagement, and for the first 10 hours, it swept me through its harrowing firefights at a rapid pace. But then the cracks began to show. In the end, Battlefront feels more like an homage to Star Wars than a substantial Star Wars game in itself. And yet, what a beautiful homage this is: dynamic lighting, vivid textures, windswept forests--developer DICE has crafted a nuanced, detailed world begging for a closer look, enveloping you at every turn. Rain glistens on drooping leaves. Icy crystals extend from cavern walls. You can even see clouds of dust billow across Tatooine's arid scenery. This is all stunning, of course, but it's Battlefront's sound design that truly reels you in. The ambient wildlife surrounds you and explosions carry through bunker walls, even as the pitter patter of rain strikes ferns in the wind. It speaks volumes that I considered turning the ubiquitous soundtrack off at times, just to hear the detail in Battlefront's world.

NinjaFish 89 Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 One thing i do miss is space battles and there choice not to include something that everyone knows and loved from the the last game was a awful mistake. With the graphics on these next gen consoles the game could have been exquisite! Quote NINJAFISH :tongueout: Link to post Share on other sites
Acea 370 Posted November 22, 2015 Report Share Posted November 22, 2015 It's a really nice game, but some gamemodes are unbalanced. Quote http://nsa38.casimages.com/img/2016/06/14/16061405541885011.png Link to post Share on other sites
