Battlefront... First Impressions

It seemed to me yesterday that everyone was going with the second gun. something 11 and fighting from off distance. Seems to be the best gun for it. Didn't see too many up close battles like cod. Highest level is 5. Only two modes or maps so gets kind of repetitive . Although I had some fun with it. You should try if you haven't.

Seemed to me if you got put on the Federation team you lost miserably, I would say 80% chance of winning on Empire team. I think the game mode needs balancing, and the game needs a lot of help. I live in the US and you guys across the ocean are getting better ping to the west coast servers than me. When I played on the overseas servers in the afternoon the hit detection was way better, they moved servers in the evening to US and game went to sh*t couldn't even get a hit with the sniper rifle. Only reason I'll be buying this game is for the co-op with my son...

Lag is so bad... Unplayable really. I can't seem to kill anyone despite putting 20 laser beams into them. I die quick... Game needs fixing if I would consider buying it. It's amazing how bad developers are with lag despite internet connections becoming faster and faster. Ironic.

Im having the same problems as procreate, same gun as opponent fire first several rounds into them then they locate me 3 shots and I am down. Very frustrating. West coast US server fro drop zone, netherlands area for walker attack which does play a tiny bit better. Hoping when I get to lvl 5 and unlock that damn thing that does loads of damage my fortunes will change but not holding out much hope to be honest.

For me with this bad connection to the game the fighters x wings pew pew lasers etc do keep the play value up for a short time ( shit, it's Star Wars man )but without a decent connection its going to get real boring real fast.

The only kills I get are with sniper rifle. Also the sensitivity is all messed up with the game... Maybe because I have the FOV cranked but it should adjust. It's too sensitive when ADS... This is PC I'm talking about, don't even want to play it on PS4 since it looks like shit in comparison... Would rather go 5-20 looking at the killer graphics. Especially considering I am playing at 2650x1600.

Playing great for me in the UK must again be the US servers ?

 

Winning the gun fights where I connect all my shots and dying to the gun fights where I miss a shot.

This is a typical encounter to me, the enemy has a weaker gun, I get first hits in, on his first shot with a weaker gun my health is nearly half whilst after several shots into the enemy his health is down to 43. Killed me in two shots.

The walker assault mode has some very bad lag very noticeable for me pretty silly considering this is on an E.U server permanently and with drop zone on an west coast U.S server permanently and i'm in the UK which plays great for me the game can be very frustrating connection wise but i do like switching the PS4 on to play this after a long day i'm back on the fence for a purchase but will wait until i see some feed back after a few weeks of release.

That encounter looks somewhat familiar Bagsta, except it looked like your aim was right on, mine sucks but I make up for it in quantity of shots.

It's pretty tough to defend the uplinks as the Rebels when you have AT-AT's dropping orbital attacks every few seconds.  The Empire definitely has the advantage in the Hoth Map.

Yes, this is exactly the case. If you are on Federation side, be prepared to get spawn killed and more. The games lack of balance is just laughable. I agree, its a kiddies game for small children. Pew pew pew. LOL

CoD W@W, ghosts, AW, BO3, SWBF now, titanfall.

Just wondering are there many people playing titanfall on PC still? I haven't played it for ages as the same with bf4. Always struggling for kills yet annihilated quickly by the opposition.

Drop zone for me is where it is at, hoping for a TDM type at launch.

I have to say I was murdering peeps on the dropzone maps and loved it, hitmarks was spot on. I got to lvl 5 on there and tried a go on the at-at mode. It was fun but lag was bad. I had geof off as couldn't get into a game in dropzone. Last night though I kept geof on and used pa set to 45 for the at at mode and games seemed much better.

SW is all about head shots, aim for the head smooch.

I know dude I'm loving it just a shame the lvl cap is so short lol. On and I suck at using the tie fighters and heroes lol, im deffo an on the ground guy. It would be awesome to play in a squad I think where you can respawn on your team buddies. Shame I'm a bit of a loner lol.

 

I love the old school feel and simplicity compared to say cod or bf with all their different setups.

 

My last post was just saying about why I stopped playing a couple of my online PC games but have been considering having a bash since getting the netduma

I had the geo filter turned of and on Hoth I couldn't hit a barn door if I was sitting on the handle :) When I went on to drop zone I managed to get some kills but still ended negative.

I kept getting connected to a server in California and was getting blasted almost immediatley, but I had to go through at least on overheat to kill anyone.

I can see the Jedi getting annoying as they are very difficult kill, even if you can.

I saw a few people blasting one and all it did was kneel down as if meditating and when people blasted him nothing happened :)

Lucky you I have been trying to get in a game since Thursday and still can't find one.  Turned off the Duma and back on no difference, doesn't even start to load one...

I had a very similar experience which was the final straw before deleting the beta.

 

Blops3 lagged for me in the beta but not as bad as this
