I sincerely dont understand why they cant just make the game the fans want instead of trying to appeal to a different crowd that will only play this till the next shooter comes along.
Any info on how exactly the hero and vehicles will be acquired?
I see that more 'skilled' players will have the opportunity to be the hero, but everyone can still get a chance.
What hell does that mean exactly?

Still don't understand how vehicles will work now, from what i read it sounds similar to Titanfall?
You can upgrade them like Titanfall, but to access them you need to spawn into them.

I might be in the minority but I like these changes. Battlefront 1 was so shallow.Some new details
Taken from Battlefront updates.
https://youtu.be/d0jyK6QnvH8
Summary:
SP
Inferno Squad, an elite imperial unit. Different character in the squad have unique abilities.
Campaign set from ROTJ spanning a period of 30 years, ends before force awakens. Story ties into various new canon media.
Elements of choice in the campaign.
Back droid is MC companion, has neat tricks.
Has a progression system in SP, SP progression is for SP unlocks only.
Dogfights and space battles in SP.
Play as Luke and Kylo in campaign, briefly. See Iden from their perspective.
Vardos, new planet, willingly joined the empire. Urban in set up.
MP
Everything will have progression. Heros, soldiers, ships etc. A lot of unlocks to promote longevity
No more pickups, but more opportunities for more 'skilled' players to become heros. Though everyone would get a chance.
No vehicle pickups!
Wont be able to land and take off on vehicles.
Lightsaber combat drastically changed. Reworked melee system.
Reworked core hero mechanics.
Gunplay changed towards Battlefield style. Slightly more difficult to learn.
ADS and hip fire will be effected now unlike BF1.
No squad system, but a new cool system for parties.
A LOT of customisation, both cosmetic and gameplay.
No dynamic destruction like in Battlefield.
Heros will have a rock, paper, scissor system. Depending on the situation one maybe weaker/stronger.
Attachments for weapons.
Not all classes have jump packs. Very specific to certain classes.
Rolling will return.
Offline SP will be substantially different from MP/SP elements.
They're very good changes for the most part.I might be in the minority but I like these changes. Battlefront 1 was so shallow.

Didn't people complain about 2015 Battlefront not playing like Battlefield? Now 2017 Battlefront 2 does and I guess people want it to play like 2015 Battlefront.
Can't please everyone I guess.
I really hate this. This constant Empire fellatio is tiring, and it's indicative of the fact that people aren't opposed to fascists at all as long as their gear is cool.The single player campaign looks really cool. I love that it's from the perspective of an Empire soldier.

.One of those choices had better be whether or not to join the filthy Rebel scum so I can say no. Those terrorists shall not prevail!
Rebels complaining about building another Death Star but they're the ones who blew up the first one anyway. Sad! #crookedmothma

Give me a New Republic Special forces trooper instead. The ones in the now defunct EU were basically ODSTs and kicked tons of ass.
That's like saying people aren't opposed to murderers because they enjoy Dexter or The Punisher or American Psycho or hell, ManiacI really hate this. This constant Empire fellatio is tiring, and it's indicative of the fact that people aren't opposed to fascists at all as long as their gear is cool.

"Fans should expect something similar to Skirmish mode from SWBFEA1" - allegedly said by Niklas Fegraeus, creative director SWBFEA2 (according to StarWarsHQ)
Some of the more interesting books on Nazi Germany I've read are the ones that peel back the layers from normal life to the ugliness underneath before it spilled out, such as In The Garden of Beasts.
The player character was born and raised on a planet that willingly joined the Empire without threat of force. Seems like an interesting point to see how someone would be so oblivious to the Empire's true colors and be that devoted.
Seems inevitable the player will turn on The First Order after certain revelations and hard truths. But maybe not and we get to feel disgusted about ourselves to the end.
There are cops riding around on American streets with the Punisher skull on their car. Special forces operators venerate the Punisher for being a killing machine. Hell, I saw in an article somewhere that even Islamist terrorists tool around with Punisher skulls on their kit because he's such a badass killer.That's like saying people aren't opposed to murderers because they enjoy Dexter or The Punisher or American Psycho or hell, Maniac

Any word on if additional VR missions would be included for PSVR owners?? That single mission added last year was seriously awesome. I would love to play a full campaign like that.
Or maybe, just maybe there are hundreds of games where you play as the Jedi/Rebellion. I say give me more Empire focused games.
As posted earlier, this is completely false. Come to think of it, the OG Star Wars Battlefront 2 was Republic/Empire focused. There aren't many story based games at all focusing on Rebellion/New Republic infantry, just the Jedi. And frankly following a Rebel trooper as she fights the Empire as an insurgent and then as an infantry woman of the New Republican Army would be a lot more interesting than yet another Imperial narrative. There's a lot more worldbuilding opportunity there.Or maybe, just maybe there are hundreds of games where you play as the Jedi/Rebellion. I say give me more Empire focused games.
So I still cant figure out if vehicles will be on the map for one to find and enter/exit, or not ?
The last two console games were empire focused, or at best mixed(Force Unleashed). What was the last console game that you played as the rebellion primarily as? Lego Star Wars? Rouge Squadron 3 on the gamecube in 2003(Jedi Academy in 2003)? The PSP Battlefront games? Battlefront 2 was Empire Focused. Battlefront 1 was mixed. Force unleashed was mixed. Republic Commando was Republic. Bounty Hunter was third party. Kinect Star Wars was bad game. Jedi Starfighter was Republic. Ktor/Tor was Old Republic.
I mean I'm indifferent, Next years game is probably rebellion related, or it will give you the choice to be, but unless you go back to the 90's, modern games haven't been primarily rebellion. That's incorrect. I want a straight Rebellion game that's not a ship game. A republic commando type game following a squadron of rebels with their own history and motivations. There aren't "hundreds" of those games.

Or just use the move controller as a lightsaberYes, the VR mission in Battlefront was really good. Now, if they can use the new gun peripheral that will come out with Farpoint, to create a VR mission(s)/or full campaign by allowing us to be a storm trooper/rebel with it, that'd be amazing.

Didn't they say no to that?
I think we might see a situation with both. Basically flying vehicles and large ground based vehicles like AT-ATs will probably be something we spawn into, but things like imperial tanks, speeder bikes, AT-STs and Tauntauns will spawn on the map for players to use.

Stop spreading lies. The game has been hovering below 20k players for weeks now. http://swbstats.comThe 2015 game has maintained a steady playerbase of about 25k concurrent peak players on PS4. That might not be as much as Battlefield 1 (and why would it be, being two years old?) but it's a significant amount.

Friday evening, Saturday all day, Sunday all day, and all day Monday it hovered around 25k on the PS4. That's only slightly above average for the weekend. Battlefront has consistently higher numbers than BF4 on the PS4, don't cherrypick just to shit on the game.Stop spreading lies.

Meanwhile, BF4, a 4 year old game, has had more concurrent players even when you discount PS3 and 360.

Seems to me BF4 has had a much better job at retaining players.
