Movement looks pretty janky in that JackFrags video, still hyped though.

Lakitu · Oct 5, 2015

The lightsaber duel between Luke and Vader in the Jackfrags video looks awful.

Kenzodielocke · Oct 5, 2015

The running animation of Luke looks really bad tbh.

Edit: both luke and vader have some akward looking animations.

blakep267 · Oct 5, 2015

That's janky

Rex Griswold · Oct 5, 2015

There's a looooot of work left to do I see.

I hope that's not final. Vader's voice especially.

nib95 · Oct 5, 2015

That Hero gameplay looked terrible. Janky, repetitive, unpolished and just altogether poor looking. The animations and overall hit detection when using the Hero's really needs work.

EatChildren · Oct 5, 2015

Saber swings look fucking terrible.

fastmower · Oct 5, 2015

This game needs a lot more time in the oven than its getting.

Panda Rin · Oct 5, 2015

Yeah, that looked rough.

Edag88 · Oct 5, 2015

I have a bad feeling about this.

RoKKeR · Oct 5, 2015

So you're telling me this game may very well launch in a poor state, requiring more time in the oven. No way!

Still, will give the beta this week a shot.

RoboPlato · Oct 5, 2015

Sullust looks gorgeous.

Third person camera looks bad though. Seems like some kind of fish eye effect?

Kintaro · Oct 5, 2015

Nice to see them carry on the tradition of janky light saber gameplay. =)

(But seriously, I didn't expect any better. It's not a character action game).

Iced · Oct 5, 2015

No, for real: where is the gameplay footage for Endor? Have we seen ANY yet?

MR ARCADE FOREVER · Oct 5, 2015

Ugh looks janky roughy

Pryce · Oct 5, 2015

Yeah, well, that doesn't look very good.

VanquishUK · Oct 5, 2015

They made lightsaber fights 3rd person? LOLOLOLOLOL

If they made it first person with actual mechanics like Chivalry or something that would be epic.

Goreomedy · Oct 5, 2015

Uh... first Jackfrags vid, shitty animations and hit detection. Are there modes where you can play without "heroes"?

Liljagare · Oct 5, 2015

Yeah, no, the token system for vehicles are too derpy derp for me. Was interested in it until that came out.

(vehicles spawn from tokens, you only have so much time before you despawn in a vehicle, no matter if you die or not.The tokens are also always in the same spot.)

OdysseusVA · Oct 5, 2015

Yep, still looks bad.

curb · Oct 5, 2015

I'm so glad there's a beta to remind me that I've never been a huge Battlefront guy and that no amount of Force Awakens hype will change that. Saves me $80 Canadian.

ThaddeusMcGee · Oct 5, 2015

At least we can count on other players to enhance the hero fights with aggressive teabagging.

Iceternal · Oct 5, 2015

Jeuxvideo.com did a preview of the game and said it's not very good ... Well there it is.

Gen.Grievous · Oct 5, 2015

DICE has lost the plot a few Battlefields ago. So I can't say I'm surprised with the footage.

zychi · Oct 5, 2015

So how many maps total so far? I'm still really underwhelmed with this, compared to what it could have been.

Arkanius · Oct 5, 2015

Preorder cancelled

TangoAlphaLima · Oct 5, 2015

Somebody needs to gif that rebel soldier teabagging Luke.

Alpha Phoenix · Oct 5, 2015

I genuinely wish this game had a story campaign.

I saw Endor footage behind closed doors a few months ago. Looked gorgeous, but definitely more "scripted" than these videos of the game actually being played in its natural state.

Seeing ROTJ Luke Skywalker getting teabagged on Hoth is really depressing me for some reason.

RyanW · Oct 5, 2015

Lightsaber combat looked like a mix of it being rough and the guy just being really excited

Dee Dah Dave · Oct 5, 2015

Well this looks.....bland. Another crappy game hidden behind the Star Wars 'texture pack'.

You are free to switch between 1st or 3rd person at all times, are you not?

BoosterDuck · Oct 5, 2015

Can you go first person in hero mode?

jon bones · Oct 5, 2015

really glad the beta is this week...

will save me some face after suggesting my friends and i make this our winter shooter

16BitNova · Oct 5, 2015

The heroes gameplay looked pretty bad. Like the animations and actions just looked wrong. All other gameplay looked fun though.

josecitoxnyo · Oct 5, 2015

LMAO that Luke animation. xD

Yeah, it's the same shit that was in the alpha, not buying it on launch no matter what.

VanquishUK · Oct 5, 2015

Yeah I think you're right actually. But still the mechanics of lightsaber duels look awful.

Snkfanatic · Oct 5, 2015

Huh...well I think I feel better about waiting on this one. Man that 3rd person camera looks terrible.

Blablurn · Oct 5, 2015

looks a lil rough

SuperBanana · Oct 5, 2015

Every time I watch gameplay of this I get bored after about 30 seconds. I really hope this is good....

Wreav · Oct 5, 2015

I can't see a world where I'm buying this day one.

Every video deflates my hype more and more.

Boke1879 · Oct 5, 2015

Sullest looks fucking amazing

Bad_Boy · Oct 5, 2015

the more i see this game the less i want it.

what is going on.

Kintaro · Oct 5, 2015

I guess it has been a long time since the last Battlefront if people are forgetting how light saber "duels" played out.

They were janky then and they will be janky now since you can't shoehorn melee mechanics into a shooter no matter how hard you try. =P

Alienous · Oct 5, 2015

It just doesn't look fun.

The maps inspire apathy, for one.

ScaryShark · Oct 5, 2015

Good thing is we'll all be able to play it ourselves in three days for free.

Yea it just looked janky. Aside from that. Everything else looked pretty good. Really can't wait to play Drop Zone

Darryl M R · Oct 5, 2015

Any saber fighting gifs?
