EA: Star Wars Battlefront Doesn’t Have Single Player Because People Don’t Play Single ...

whilst i agree to a degree bran, i also think it should be based on value rather than almost this 'blanket' charge for DLC we seem to be seeing - Destinys first 2 DLC packs were pretty pish but TTK was pretty good, although still probably not worth the price
for most (personally ive spent 500 odd hours on it so have got my monies worth).

£50 for this pass does seem expensive, but then i bought the BF4 one too and that was imo worth money as the packs were brilliant. Not quite sure how it will work in battlefront though as there are no gold packs/req packs etc

Out of interest the season pass is showing at £39.99 for me on the store £36 with EA access discount.

Also just played the fighter mode - that is great fun, really can't wait for this now

Yes, they at least do a conversion when it goes to £'s, but even though the euro is worth more than the US dollar they do not do a conversion so $50.00 is the same in euro t €50.00. A lot of times it will be 10 to 20 euro higher than the US.

I do have to admit that the graphics are pretty crazy though.

The PC version looks astonishing....

Dude, I wish I had money and the know how to get a PC to make games look like that. Wonder if consoles will ever look that good.

Played a fair amount of the full game now and it's safe to say I love it

Only real issue I've encountered so far is the Deluxe edition gun DL-44 is a little op on confined maps, and I find the character custom outfits a bit lacking, other than that I can't fault the game.

I will say try some of the more unusual game modes like drop zone and droid run, they are immense fun and you can have some great little tug of war matches going on if both teams play the objectives.

Re the whole season pass thing, I've said this before, in the UK at least, the price I pay for my games has been pretty consistent all through the life of the 360 to current day which is what 10yrs? Now there is not a lot else in my life I'm paying the same
price as 10 yrs ago, developers are a business, not a charity to gamers, DLC is how they make their money these days, it either that or I can see them raise the cost of each game release by £20 and I personally would much rather they keep the base game price
consistent and let me make the choice to pay for any DLC based on the quality of the game.

If I enjoy a game then yep I will pay extra money to enjoy the game more, the DLC packs for BF4 are great, and I would hazard a guess these will be quality too.

^^ Yes, they've cut maps out now, to sell later. The stuff Badger just highlighted does not seem like it's worth €50.00 in my opinion. €69.00 + €50.00 to play the full game? Hell no, and not buying.

I don't like games without SP.

I normally never play SP, but that will change since I just bought Fallout 4.

What have they changed Badger?
