Played the Battlefront Beta last night and most of the morning. Here are my thoughts:
1) They need to make sure the currency system is fixed. I dumped 1500 credits into shield charges, went into the next match, showed 30, wouldn't let me use the shield. Upon picking up a charge on the field my charges changed to 1.
2) They need to balance the ATAT Attack's defend points. In a heavy vehicle map with turrets everywhere having 90% of the points out in the open causes the empire to win 90% of the time.
3) The random item system is a bit frustrating, as are the spawns. Half of the random items are near useless (Im looking at you, turrets), and when playing Drop Ship, the game tends to spawn you on the opposite side of the map when you're defending a point, and by the time you get back to the point, many times not only has the other team taken over, but the capture meter is almost full.
That being said....
I cant stop playing it. Its beautiful, the sound is spot on, and besides these issues.... its fun. I know a ton of people are complaining about the lack of a class system, and theres a bunch of hate on the card system, but this doesn't bother me. Dropship games are quick and fast paced, and 20 v 20 ATAT Attack is frantic, fun, and who doesn't like to see Lord Vader appear on the battlefield to wreck house while A-Wings, X Wings, Tie Fighters, and Chicken Walkers blow stuff up.
I'm totally snatching this game up.
