It will not have a single player campaign. Rather, EA says that there are a series of short mission that can be complete solo, co-op, or online, rather than a scripted multi-hour campaign.

“I would say [these missions] occupy that space…where you play alone,” General Manager of DICE Patrick Bach said. “Or you can play co-op, split screen or on the internet. The game is first and foremost a multiplayer game. Battlefront was a multiplayer game. That’s the game we wanted to create — to recreate the battles of the Original Trilogy.”

And battlefront will have single player missions, but no true single player campaign.

based on what information?

thought you already had all the facts before the game came out and it wasn't a buy

I never said I had all the facts before the game came out.

I said that without a singleplayer campaign, this is a no buy.

At this point I am at definite "no buy". If they add space battles they could move me up to underwhelmed.

With 6 manned vehicles, I can't see myself going higher than underwhelmed. Not worried about AT-ATs. Those frickers are just clunky and worthless.

Is being online bad?

Not for consoles.

For PC, it is a deal breaker

Why I'm not bothered.

Why specifically for PC? Laptop?

Got to pay for those mods now.

Lots of obfuscating in that piece.

I like how he answers the space battle question. Dude is a politician. . .

Damn that link stifled my expectations.
