Battlefront is definitely not a single-player game, and if you try to play solo, you’ll be bored.īut each of these modes comes with the option to play with a friend, either online or via split-screen co-op. The game also has "battles," essentially multiplayer firefights where the human competition has been replaced by computer-controlled bots, and "survival," where you fight off increasingly challenging waves of artificially intelligent Imperial forces, trying to last until the end. Battlefront’s incredible attention to detail makes even a training mission about riding a speeder bike across Endor feel like living a moment from the movies. Outside of the multiplayer portion of the game, Battlefront offers a series of what it calls "missions." These include relatively simple tutorials - you can learn how to wield Darth Vader’s lightsaber or pilot an X-Wing - that are fun for one or two playthroughs. If you play it a certain way, Battlefront feels a lot like the Nintendo 64 classic Goldeneye. You can play in the same room on the same television, a former obligatory feature that’s been gradually removed from big budget games. It’s focused on epic-sized space battles, where Rebels fight against Imperial forces (both sides made up of real players), across iconic landscapes like Hoth and Tatooine.īut there’s another, smaller facet of the experience that lets you pair up with a single buddy and team up to fight off bad guys. At first glance, Star Wars: Battlefront, which launches today, falls into the former camp. Some franchises, like Call of Duty and Halo, offer both of these in a single package others, like the multiplayer-only Titanfall, focus on just one. Then there are the story-driven campaigns, where you fight your way through gaming’s equivalent of a blockbuster movie. There are the e-sport-style multiplayer experiences, where you spend dozens of hours honing your skills, competing against other players online. So please, let us start private matches by ourselves.Modern first-person shooters come in one of two flavors. The team won't be fixing any map problems anymore. All you have to do is select a mode, maps for your playlist, and immediately realize that you can't play on the map because you need 2 players to start! During the golden age of Battlefront 2015, I recall the devs saying that they put in this limitation because they didn't want people to find bugs in the maps to exploit. But we have a solution to this problem! We can simply start a private match on any map we want, and explore it to our hearts content, looking at the detail, listening to the sounds, and being immersed. However, due to smaller player counts, it's difficult to find matches for many modes, and even more difficult to find a specific map. This game has so many beautiful maps, with plenty of work put into them.
