I'm kind of blown away that so many people were wanting a legit SP campaign with this or were even expecting it.

Maybe I'm just weird. But in addition to me sucking something awful online, I really enjoy watching the story in campaign mode.

Maybe I'm just not remembering the early ones (or just never played them), but Battlefront has always been about MP. And if there was a campaign, it was just the MP stuff set up with bots and I killed everyone there.

Im talking all shooter games I guess more so than just battlefront. For battlefront, I think a Star Wars campaign with a good story would be a lot of fun.

Yeah, it would be great, but like I said, I wasn't expecting it much with this game at all.

Maybe someone can explain to me why these games, which are more expensive than their predecessors by magnitudes of 50, have less content than their predecessors by magnitudes of 50.


We keep paying for them.

Pretty simple really. When DLCs started costing money and people started paying it.

Game companies started lining their pockets.

I remember the old RPG games use to have 80 plus hours worth of material.

Now many consider 20 this great thing.

You want to change the game industry, stop buying half finished games.

No one will so this sort of thing will continue.

I never understood the obsession with game length. Some games don't need to be long. Last of us was amazing and under 20 hours.

Your previous statement implies that you feel that way.

Battlefield never had a single player campaign that anyone cared about.

Battlefront was 50% campaign, 25% singleplayer frickin around with bots, 25% MP to me and many many other players. I assume you can still do singleplayer game modes, so that makes half a game.

The Battlefront EA is talking about is BF4 with a SW skin and map mod.

If that's your thing, great. There are more like me, than like you. . .I'll wager.

Until I get an actual Battlefront game, this is a pass.

It makes me sad that they fricked the fans of the series in such a manner.

See my above statement.

Singleplayer games are 100% of a game.

If CoD made BLOPS3 singleplayer only, that would be half a game.

Yeah, I know right. Those RPG like Dragon Age and Bloodborne. They're just really lacking for content.

Wasn't battlefront SP just the multiplayer maps, with a short cutscene and bots running around?
