I had previously bought star wars battlefront 2, which i loved, so i thought this new version would take the already brilliant gameplay of it and improve upon that. And has it? weeeell no, not really. At first, the game may feel far superior, you can fight on ground, in the air, and in space, and by seeing the hordes of troops peppering the landscape, it feels much more like a full-out war, unlike in bfront 2, where troops wander pointlessly from one command post to the next. Though having such a big battlefield brings on one of the main problems, the game feels a lot more slow than bfront2. Enemies have far more life than on bf2, and you can only shoot at one enemy for so long without getting bored. In bf2 when you saw enemies, you would leap in with joy, celebrating in the carnage in which droid parts flew all over the screen. But this is a lot more slow paced, and if your looking for a fast and furious shooter, this definitely is not for you. But it does feel less repetitive then bf2, instead of charging as quickly as possible to the next command post, here you have to disable shields, capital ships, and charge up ion cannons, making for a much deeper and strategic gaming experience. Space battling is a mixture of good and bad, whilst it is a lot easier to fly and bring down enemies, each side only has 2 types of spacecraft, a fighter and transport, whereas bf2 had about 6. Probably the worst thing, however was something definitely not expected. The heroes here are awful. In bf2, heroes where one of the best parts of the game, performing gravity defying leaps and flips, and 1 hit KOing enemies with ease. But in this theyve done just about everything wrong. Firstly your life decreases at a much faster rate, and the meagre health refill gained from killing enemies is nowhere near enough to sustain you for any significant period of time. This doesnt really matter, however, as the heroes are so awful at fighting that you wouldnt want to be them anyway. When you swing the lightsabre, it does very simple, slow, slashes, and misses more often than not. You actually have more of an advanage playing as a normal troop, because if you do, you can equip an electrostaff, which is actually more powerful and accurate than the lightsabre. One of the games features is customisation, not only can you choose your weaponry from a wide selection, you can completely control your appearance. A lot of these weapons and clothes are unlockable, and it will take a while to unlock everything. However, whichever way you customize them, it seems impossible to make the droids look anything other than awful. Also entering is a new medal system. In bf2, you collected different medals, and when you reached a certain amount, you upgraded your weaponry. But here you can only obtain one of each, and these are ridiculously easy to obtain. Also entering this games gaggle of flaws is a by no means perfect control system. It doesnt take einstein to work out that if you can aim up or down in a shooter, that by no means improves the gameplay. There are, pleasingly, a far better selection of game modes, with instant action, galactic conquest, and a fairly good campaign. One thing that the game could actually do with out are the excessive cutscenes. Rather than landing in a ship, a cutscene triggers and you immidiatley find yourself inside.
pros
space battle easier to manage
large amount of customisation
battle on a far greater scale
deeper, more strategic gameplay
campaign mode is ok
cons
far more slow paced
pathetic cast of spaceships
awful heroes
troop controls
unnecessary cutscenes
dull maps
