    Am I bad or is this game just laggy

    Am I bad/unexperienced or is there actually something wrong with how reponsive this game is?

    So often I feel like enemies hit through my block but when I'm obviously behind them or to their side I can't hit them, or my force abilities get blocked for no reason. Stuff like that. People also do way more damage than I can do to them

    I was just wondering if this is something I just need to get used to

    Kinda sucks that we never got Mimban as a map

    HUGE missed opportunity on their part. This would’ve been a perfect addition to galactic assault or Capital supremacy.

    A lot of the OT content in the game was lacking, with most of it being locations from the first game. Mimban would’ve been a breath of fresh air before the influx of Prequel content 2019 onward.

    What do you like in a blaster?

    For me personally I love firerate and accuracy as I play almost exclusively Heavy so for me I absolutely love the TL 50 put the Recoil Control and Damage Increase Mods for the gun and you are good to go.

    But when I’m playing the other classes like Specialist I prefer stopping power.

    I just bought Battlefront II Classic(2005) on Steam and when I try to launch the game it just... refuse. I even try to launch it from the Battlefront II Classic folder but it didn't work either and this message also pop up. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

    Battlefront Holiday Buyers Guide - FAQ

    Looking to buy the game for the holidays, for yourself or for a loved one? Wondering if the game is still worth it in 2024? We've got answers for all your holiday sale questions!

    I've listed the sale prices for the Steam Autumn sales and Xbox/PS Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales, but if you miss out on them, they're usually the same price around the end of December for the Holiday Sales

    Star Wars: Battlefront II (2017)

    Steam Autumn Sale price - $4.79
    Xbox Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $4.99
    Playstation Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $4.99

    Is the game dead?

    Nope! Still alive and well. You may have to go into your settings and change the Ping Site to a more active one, though. Germany and Virginia (US East) are the most popular ones, Oregon (US West) still sees some decent activity during peak gaming hours for the west coast. Asia/Pacific regions are pretty empty, though, you'll probably hafta put up with some lag and use those more active Ping Sites instead.

    Is there crossplay?

    No crossplay or cross-save.

    Can I play offline?

    Yes! There is a (admittedly short) campaign to play through, and an Instant Action mode you can play offline. On PC, there are even quite a few mods that overhaul the game that can only be used offline in the Instant Action mode.

    Should I get it?

    Absolutely. For only $5 when its on sale? Totally worth it. There's still tons of life in this game, weekly ingame events, and plenty of guides to get you going. Plus, the Co-op mode gives new players an easy way to level characters and classes, unlock star card abilities, learn the game, and catch up to the veteran players. Check out our Discord server if you're looking for people to play with, we've got LFG roles for every platform.

    ===========================

    Star Wars: Battlefront (2015)

    Steam Autumn Sale price - $4.99
    Xbox Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $4.99
    Playstation Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $4.99

    Is the game dead?

    Pretty dead, unfortunately. During peak hours, you may be able to find a full match of the base game modes, but if you want to play any of the DLC maps/modes, you'll need to find a community to organize and play with.

    Is there crossplay?

    No crossplay or cross-save.

    Can I play offline?

    There are a few offline Missions, but they are pretty short, and in my opinion not worth buying the game just for them.

    Should I get it?

    Maybe? At it's sale price of $5, it might be good to have just in case you want to try it. Some communities have held Battlefront 2015 events in the past to try and repopulate the servers for a day, and it's better to get it now for $5 than later for full price. But if you don't have $5 to spare or don't want to spend $5 on a maybe, probably best just sticking with Battlefront II.

    ===========================

    Star Wars Battlefront: Classic Collection (2024)

    Steam Autumn Sale price - $31.50
    Xbox Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $26.24
    Playstation Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $34.99 - NOT ON SALE
    Nintendo Switch Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale price - $28.00

    Is the game dead?

    Totally dead. If you wanna play online MP with your friends, you can still host your own server, but the server browser is usually pretty bare. Some communities do host servers for events, but its still a relatively small population.

    Is there crossplay?

    No crossplay or cross-save.

    Can I play offline?

    Absolutely, and I would argue it is the preferred way to play. Both SWBF1 and SWBF2 have a campaign mode to play through, a Galactic Conquest mode where you conquer planets for your faction, and an Instant Action mode to play any map, any mode, any time. Both games support 2-player splitscreen for local couch co-op/head-to-head matches (or on PS and Steam, online with a friend through remote play/shareplay).

    Should I get it?

    On PC and Xbox, I wouldn't. You should probably get the original versions of the games, instead. The original versions on Xbox still come with the Xbox DLC, and on PC the DLC can be added via mods.

    Xbox SWBF1 Black Friday/Cyber Monday price - $3.49
    Xbox SWBF2 Black Friday/Cyber Monday price - $3.49

    Steam SWBF1 Autumn Sale price - $3.99
    Steam SWBF2 Autumn Sale price - $3.49

    The SWBF1 port in the Classic Collection is pretty good, so maybe if you really want enhanced monitor resolution and controller support for SWBF1, you can check out the CC. The SWBF2 port in CC, though, is missing some music, has wonky aim assist for controllers, and a few other minor bugs that just make the original standalone SWBF2 a better experience.

    On Playstation and Nintendo Switch, the Classic Collection is the only way to play SWBF1 and SWBF2, so it might be worth it if there is a pretty significant discount for it, even with the minor issues. The Switch version may experience some stuttering on dense maps, such as Felucia, but is otherwise a decent port, especially for playing the games on the go.

    Can you change skins for offline play in Battlefront 2015?

    I have been revisiting BF2015 recently and have been baffled by the lack of offline play support. No DLC maps, no Extraction, ect. Is it also the case that you can’t change skins in offline mode? I can’t seem to find a way.

    I've given up all chance at inner peace, I've made my mind a sunless place

    After the new Windows update, I was greeted with this message. This has happened to me before but it was resolved after a fresh Windows install. But I don't want to do it unless it is a last resort.

    How do I fix this?

    Could lag be mistaken for hacking? I’ve been having issues with lag lately and just got a message saying I was hacking, which it’s one of those if you could see my perspective that’s not the case I just wonder if having lagging issues could come across as hacking? I wouldn’t even know where to find that stuff it’s like why cheat in games just see how naturally talented or lack there of (in my case haha) you are. Idk just had me freaked out like uhhhh those things just magically install on your game right? I know kinda silly question but really dude had me worked up over not knowing or not. I understand battlefront can have bad issues at times with lagging I believe just not sure what to do or if like the original question could make one seem like their hacking? Any help thoughts advice would be great! Thank you!

    Which Hero is your favourite?

    The Hero Class is both Heroes and Villains.

    For me I feel that Captain Phasma is my best Hero Character, I genuinely have always felt invincible playing as her and no one can stand in my way except maybe a really good Lightsaber user who’s in that top percentage of people.

    One of my better combos

    Save for a match or two, haven’t played Battlefront really at all this week. First true duels of the week resulted in a nasty Kylo. Feels good to actually get a proper duel, even if that was when the proper dueling stopped and the Yoda double teamed me the following match.

    Weapons not unlocking after completing the milestone needed

    Hi, so I have a question. I completed the 50 kills needed to unlock the next weapon for the heavy class and want to know why I can’t get it. I know you need to get crates, but I don’t know how to get crates to get it. Can somebody help me with that?

    Rewatching Clone Wars and I completely forgot until now that Droidekas have a sniper configuration. Would've been a really cool gameplay mechanic for Battlefront.

    If this were implemented in a Battlefront (or Battlefront-esque) game I think it would pretty easily make the Droideka the strongest Separatist unit. One droid having both effective close and long range capabilities would be crazy. Would love to see how it would play.
