I played SWBF 1 at the very end of last year. Totally hated it with only less than 1h game time before moving on.

This SWBF 2 Beta I also cincai try only. But surprisingly it exceeded the expectation. The adrenaline of meeting a Death maul or whatever it is called is real. The laser shots impact when hitting an enemy feels real. The avatar design whether its the storm troopers or the MTT or WhatTT was very detailed. I am totally not a star war fan, but ayam enjoying the game very much.

I am hearing most of my gamer friends they want wait for review. But I played the beta. I like what I saw and experienced. Day 1 for me  icon_rolleyes.gif

Then the dude in reddit who claim one hero needs 40h to unlock is far away from bullseye.

Or did he meant 40h to unlock all heroes? I glimpse the vid yesterday. Lemme try find it back. XD

Fully occupied with work these few sara. But will be trying this for the first time this Friday. Anyone want coop? Let's hook up : )

no need play lah. go busy with your work.

after all these fiasco, i think i won't buy this game until it is completely free or at least 50% off the original price. EA basically treat this game using P2W model, but still charge you a full game price.

And yes you didn't see wrong. 40 hour to unlock a hero. They did the math using the spreadsheet. If you do not have time to go reddit and see what's is happening, let me just summarize the current event for u.

1. To unlock 1 hero, yes 1 hero u didn't read it wrong, you will need at least 40k. The most expensive one is 60k, darth vader and luke skywalker is among the most expensive one.
2. You cannot unlock hero through loot crates or aka loot boxes. You can only unlock using credits.
3. To earn credits, you either earn from completing matches or buy loot boxes using real money.
4. Earning credits by completing matches will be the same for everyone, even though you placed last of that match. For example, if you perform very well, rank 1st in the match, your credit earned will be completely same as the the person who ranked last. People also proved that you can farm those credit through AFK for the whole match. Some match which ended short will have shorter credit earn for example the rebel failed to capture the 1st objective so the match ended. The longer the match, the higher the credit u can earn.
5. People from game review website already proved that buying loot crates will make you very powerful since u already have all the rare star cards equip and credits u got from loot crates to upgrade to even more powerful star cards.
6. Arcade mode have a time limit on how u earn your credits. For example if you complete today arcade mode and earn 300 credits, u need to wait 24 hours later to earn that credit if u play the same arcade again.
7. EA have already reduced the cost to unlock hero to 10k, BUT they didn't tell u that they reduced the credit earn per match.
8. People have started to cancel their pre-order from EA until EA even remove the refund button from their online sale website, have customer have to call their customer service to help them do the refund.
9. EA going to do an AMA on reddit on Wednesday to do damage control, and it will be interesting to see how it goes.

EA did the same shit for need for speed, and now they are doing this on the most beloved movie franchise.

Morning peeps, is this true? Anyone that already start playing can confirm this?

temporarily i guess. i don't think EA is that stupid to remove it entirely and permanently.

You must remember.

EA is evil. There's no way they going to remove it just because of a bad press.

Once everything is calmed down, then they will add it back again.

the game is fun. problem is the the game progression sux. u will need to grind for hours to unlock something. if u want fast u need to pay.

don't support a game that ask u to pay full price and then want u to pay extra for the full features.
