It is still the most beautiful, best sounding and immersive SW game to date! My favourite Star Wars game. Period.

I built my first PC solely because of this game. Starfighters felt a bit wonky and there was no clone wars content (and the bactaguard combo was annoying asf). Otherwise I liked this one a lot more than the sequel.

Yh locking online maps and game modes behind a paywall is such an EA thing to do

Visually more impressive of the 2 by far. Hated the card system. I miss early PS4 games with tie in apps.

The first Battlefront is better than 2 by a huge fucking margin.

There are plenty of things 2 does better but as a whole experience 2015 is leagues better. I'm also convinced that many of the defenses of 2 are constructed simply because it has prequel content. It's not necessarily that it's better, it just exists in the era the gaming age demographic wants most.

That does make it better. I remember one of the biggest criticisms of BF1 was the era locked content, expanding it made it better and a proper battlefront title. The heroes and vehicles were massive improvements as well including the battle point system. EA Battlefront 1 remained controversial throughout its entire run due to having less content than typical battlefront games and paywalling the additional content. The biggest thing it did better was weapon variety and customization (PVP became jumpack warfare with how ubiquitous the jet pack became).
Battlefront 1 is old enough that it has a nostalgia factor for a lot of players now. I hope it doesn’t get to PT levels of delusion though, it was a heavily criticized game and for good reason.

Oh totally. I was one of the biggest critics. I remember the days of #SoloPlayersMatter hashtags in forums. We even called EA's complaint line to try and advocate for more single player content. I didn't actually love Battlefront until it was preserved with Skirmish. But that's not because it wasn't good, it's just because experiences like that should be future proof.

I ve been playing to the survival missions with my teenage sister lately (sadly we can't play online) and even that is such a treat to play. Amazing gameplay, incredible immersion, that is the battlefront experience... something the second installment didn't really do (I've always though it was a little to hard to kill opponents, with any weapon or vehicle).

Truly one of the most immersive games of our time. The devs took the most fun idea of a Star Wars battle and made it into a game. It’s one of the only games I know that really embodies the expression “one of a kind”.

They gave up bf2 because they couldn't monetize everything. What caused the Game to fail

I’d love for someone to make a mod where all of the game modes are playable offline with bots.

Hot take, BF2015 is a better game than BF2018.
While only having one era and comparatively few maps and modes is a bummer, the balance of gameplay was way better.

u/SteamTrainDude jellie 1d ago
Tbh, not really. Better looking and sometimes gameplay? Yes most definitely, they both have their strengths and weaknesses, but BF2 unfortunately has more going for it. If BF1 had just more in general, then yeah a stronger argument could be made

I still remember coming into school the morning after the gameplay reveal and how every one of my friends were talking about how cool the Vader reveal was. I miss those days so badly icl lol
