No Space Battles in Star Wars: Battlefront? EA Should Just Give Us a New X-Wing/TIE Fighter

The lack of space battles in Star Wars: Battlefront caused a lot of discussion among the community, that would of course love to pilot the iconic Star Wars starfighters in epic battles in the dark depths of space.
But the origibal Star Wars: Battlefront games weren’t the best way to pilot an iconic X-Wing or a TIE Fighter.

Or they should make a battlefront game proper and not a battlefield skin.

Your trolling is terrible. Battlefront basically was battlefield.

[Dudebro90]

How am I trolling?

So because you take over bases means it's battlefield?

So does playing domination in cod mean it's basically battlefield as well?

Battlefront had classes, was a third person shooter, space battles, and tons of planets and maps.

So far no classes, is first person (with optional third person, but why make it native first person if it isn't just Battlefield?), only 4 planets, no space battles and has been said that it looks like battlefield in action.

Do you really think Dice can make a game from the ground up in 2 and a half years that will be faithful to battlefront?

If so, you are deluded my friend. Look at the evidence in front of you. Battlefront will be battlefield with a skin.

Battlefront was massively inspired by battlefield...I mean literally it was an attempt and at star wars battlefield...

look it up.

No Space Battles in Star Wars? No problem, DLC.

How else will EA keep interest alive for the game well into the future if they can't hold anything back that they know consumers would want.

Yeah, I'm not a big ea bashed but this is a bit scary. Lets see how they handle.

How about a cur rent gen version of n64 rouge squadron? Using the ships to fly around the left of at st's to bring them down. Would be awesome!

Gangsta, can you pm me your gamer tag? Maybe we can play sometime.

[gangsta_red]

I don't hate EA as much as others seem to either but their business model is pretty plain for all to see.

One of two things, production of games has come a lot further and takes a lot longer than it did back when the first Battlefront was made. Maybe production for space battles was just to big in scope for them to release this game on time.

or

They truly did leave Space Battles out on purpose in order to sell it separate as DLC.

Regardless I am still excited to play this game. If space battles come later on then so be it.

No, EA should give us a complete Battlefront game, rather than one that regresses so hard it has less content and fewer features than the first entry in the series over 10 years and 2 console generations ago.

[trywizardo]

you just can be happy that they're revived the Battlefront series , it was like half life wanted by the fans and ignored by the devs ....
40P MP with goo graphics and 60fps (like you fps and resolutions geeks want) that makes no space for space battle , get it ? get it ? :v

[CourierSix]

Well that sucks.

[DougLord]

No one in their right mind would say no to another Tie Fighter game BUT - I'd like a massively multiplayer space war game with capital ships manned by hundreds of fighter pilots, gunners and troops.

[Sidewinder-]

AAA Publishers don't do Space Sims no more.

[stragomccloud]

Oh man. The things I'd do for a new X-wing versus Tie Fighter....

[vorticonus]

My only hope and reason to buy a ps4, has gone...

[Smitty2020]

I voted agree by mistake they are many age games out and on there way in the next couple of months. Buy a ps4 it's worth it :)

[vorticonus]

Well, i'll think about it, thanks for the advice... Is just, i can´t believe a new Battlefront for a powerfull machine like the ps4, doesn't contain space battles like the ps2 and psp games, i don't own a ps4 and i said, well, there will be a battlefront game for ps4, so, maybe that can worth buy me the ps4... But you have a point, there are and will be more games, is just... Only battlefront convinced me as a must have... But i'll give it a try...

[theFAYEsorceress]

i wonder what kind of micro transactions ea is gonna implement into this game.

[OUROSMAG]

The battle of Jakku could introduce space battles, on the panel they did hint at the DLC revealing what happened to the destroyed Star destroyer in the new Episode 7 trailer.

[Mithan]

We should get a new X-Wing or Tie Fighter game, OR do a complete remake of the old ones, but don't make it dumbed down like the console versions (Rogue Squadron or whatever).

I want an original one or remake.

[zombie78rock]

How do you expect to play in space when the online part of the game will not work DAY ONE,, Thanks Dice

[Smitty2020]

bf4 could bring out an dlc and call it Star Wars lol

[AnotherProGamer]

Am I the only one who didn't like space battles?

[Xristo]

Battlefront needs to be Battlefront, but yes... another X-Wing/TIE Fighter game is LONG overdue! A perfect world would include both.
