Star Wars- Battlefront 2 - 4 stars (Worth the wait) - I dug out SW:BF1
Star Wars: Battlefront 2 review:4 stars (Worth the wait) - I dug out SW:BF1 the week before SW:BF2 released and played it for a day or so just to remind myself of the general gameplay. Others have already listed pros, cons, and recommendations; let me add to their lists rather than duplicate them:
PROS:
-- You get to (a) dogfight in space and (b) play as a Jedi or other 'hero' character (e.g., Boba Fett), all within the context of a given mission.
-- The "Rise of the Empire" campaign is well thought out, if a bit dark (e.g., you get to assassinate the Queen of Naboo; I'm just grateful you don't have to kill the 'younglings' in the Jedi Temple).
-- The overall gameplay is great, with larger and more complex environments.
CONS (all relatively minor):
--The Options/Controls panel is a pain to use (as when setting up a joystick). Someone needs to improve the UI design and general behavior on this; it strikes me as being somewhat 'quick and dirty.'
--The shift to story/objective mode moves SW:BF2 towards the classic problems of a 'railroad' game, namely, you have to figure out how the designers intended you to complete the objectives and in what order. For example, in the Kashyyyk: First Line of Defense mission, I tried to destroy the CIS cruiser heavy turrets before I destroyed the enemy frigates, but SW:BF2 wouldn't let me.
--Each mission has a number of sub-objectives, and there is no way to save a game within a mission. In other words, if you get to the very last mission task and die, you have to start the entire mission all over again.
--There are a few glitches here and there. For example, in that same mission, SW:BF2 seemed to have a hard time figuring out when the other clone troopers should follow me over to the CIS cruiser.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
-- First, get a joystick. It's a lot easier to do the space combat with one, though you'll have to take some time to set up the controls (under Options).
-- Second, if you don't have a lot of spare time, get the strategy guide. It doesn't have all the answers, but it does give you a heads up as to the overall flow of the mission.
-- Third, experiment. I've been able to solve specific objectives more than one way.
As of this writing [Nov 9], I'm about 2/3rds of the way through the Rise of the Empire campaign (I've completed 11 of 18 missions). I'll update my review once I've finished it and have had time to play in Galactic Conquest mode as well. ..bruce..5 stars (Battel front 2) - This game is awsome! I dont even have it and I still love it right now im trying to get it. i love evry thig about it!5 stars (Question) - I have a question about Battlefront 2: I own Battlefront 1, and was slightly disappointed that you cannot aquire other guns from fallen enemies/allies. Is this feature included in Battlefront 2?
