On pc the controls are essentially broken and what I played of both the single player and quick action dog fights was some of the most tedious, clunky gameplay I've ever experienced in any flight or space combat game.
I got it for free and I don't want to play it, that's how bad it is.
Jacob Robinson
Closest I can get to playing a remastered X-Wing and the VR is nice so yes.
Jaxon Robinson
>free
how?
Ryan Baker
It's on origin's EA play.
Jayden Rogers
It's kind of sad how the only way people can justify this game is by saying that it's the closet they can get to playing games from 2+ decades ago. Like shit, shouldn't it surpass those games by miles?
Isaac Morales
No whites again
Julian Adams
it's pretty common most of the classic gaming of the past cannot be replicated by modern means, that a substitute is usually made instead
Brandon Gutierrez
Nope
Juan Campbell
I'm enjoying it. Core gameplay is kino.
Kayden Miller
It’s ok.
Lot of blacks and women tho lol
Benjamin Anderson
If you have VR and a hotas, yes. It is very clearly the way it is meant to be played.
Jason Scott
Here's the people that wrote the game, user.
Chase Campbell
i have VR, but only mouse and keyboard. I'm having a real hard time controlling this game (I dont play flight guys normally)
Any tips? Like settings to change
Carson Myers

This is the Lead Writer, you tell me.
Lucas Smith
The gameplay is basically the same and it has active multiplayer. The campaign isn't as good as some of those, but from an objective standpoint it is a really solid spiritual successor made by people who clearly loved that series.
Ian Long
Keyboard and mouse is broken completely, use a gamepad or give up now.
Connor Allen
yikes
bullet dodged
Ryder Miller
What do twitter posts have to do with the game?
Andrew Stewart
whats broken about it?
VR controls dont work. I have a Steam Controller, but it won't turn correctly with the circular rings.
Alexander Edwards
Bros does your HOTAS feel super clunky to use with this game?
I haven't used mine in a while so could just be me.
Benjamin Myers
No.
Lincoln Gray
It’s a satisfying game, it really is a throwback to the class Xwing/Tie fighter /Rogue Squadron games, but it’s pretty generic. 7.5/10
The game is actually pretty challenging in some parts, story is good haven’t gotten around to multiplayer yet

That's a nope.

Jacob Evans
Can you actually play without all that ugly UI?
Ryder Morales
>made by Mass Effect Amdromeda devs
LOL
Easton Collins
I'm sorry you never were able to appreciate one of the best flight sims ever
Caleb Long
Not even clicking your video because I'm literally speaking from my own experience. I am having zero issues with my hotas and VR setup and the game is great.
Aiden Baker
No, it’s all in first person
Owen Hernandez
is the singleplayer any good? has it got any replayability?
Tyler Allen
Why are VR cucks so delusional? Is it because table scraps like this shit game is all they get?
Julian Hernandez
Pretty much, there's fuck all big games for VR because it's a niche market no one wants to spend big budget money on
John Martin
The campaign is pozzed to hell and it's like 4 hours long. The answer is no.
David Cox
>5vs5
Christian Thompson
Sounds an awful lot like poorfag cope
Carter Flores
I have a VR headset, that's how I know there's no big games.
Aiden Torres
>made by Mass Effect Andromeda devs
All the people not outright fired from BioWare Montreal after Andromeda failed have been merged into EA Motive: gamasutra.com
Jason Young

You can turn all of the external UI want if you want a pure sim experience.
Jeremiah Bennett
The mouse input tries to simulate a joystick by having a middle deadzone surrounded by a zone of contexual acceleration so that you can theoretically do both fine aim and full pitch/turn with the same sensitivity.
However they completely fucked up the dead zone and contextual acceleration mechanics, so fine aim is either extremely sluggish or way too fast and when you actually go to aim at something either you'll be too slow to track it or it'll suddenly go full acceleration and you'll be overcompensating constantly wobbling up and down and unable to fly on a straight course, let alone track a target. The mouse reader will also just fuck out sometimes and decide that you're steering in some random direction while you're in the deadzone or steering in a completely different direction, forcing you to fight the controls to avoid crashing.
The gamepad controls are also brokenly bad, but they are at least predictable and allow for fine aim, which is more than you can say for the mouse.

Luke Price
too little content and i keep fucking losing in fleet battle vs ai.
Dominic Gutierrez
Yes but is it actually playable like that?
Hudson Moore
the classic squadrons games aren't really bad by any means
theres not a lot more runway I can see for a genre like this but then again DICE isn't really known for breaking new ground
Ethan Phillips
>Very first mission
>one of the main characters defects to the rebellion
Please EA. Stop this
Jayden Walker
imperials should have better protection against shit like this. like can't someone just disable the ship controls from the capital ship if someone decides to defect?
Adam Turner
> EA
Nope
Bentley Gomez
Wrong Empire
Isaac Taylor
Yes, unless you need an arrow on screen pointing at your next objective at all times. All the cockpit instruments have you covered, it's just a matter of paying attention.
Owen Wilson
Ah, yes, a long-range executive kill switch. Sounds like good practice!
Liam Brooks
I was heavily disappointed by Battlefront 2's campaign and even I was pretty taken aback by the campaign opening with the imperials trying to slaughter the survivors of a genocide just for funsies
I get it they're evil
James Phillips
Why is every character in this game either black or a woman? In fact I don't think I have seen a single white man other than maybe Wedge for 5 seconds in a trailer?
James Williams
I bought it just for VR, because I didn't get exactly what I wanted out of space dad trucker simulator (Elite Dangerous), or space minecraft (No Man's Sky).
>graphics and sound not on par with Elite, obvious downgrade
>better graphics than NMS
>I don't own a HOTAS setup, and trying to pilot space ships with motion controllers is a fucking nightmare (see NMS). I am happy to use controller
>Arcady controls bound to piss off simfags, but pleases me
I'm not as blown away as I thought I would be, but so far the campaign is very fun, and it has really exciting moments. I won't be returning it. Performance is fine in VR with a Vive (regular, not pro), a 1070, 16GB RAM, i7, and a big fat retarded cock in my ass.
Xavier Diaz
Guys, what happened to the Rebellion?
Lucas Sanders
>start playing
>imperial campaign loads up
>every imp pilot is black
>co pilot is an asian feminist
>uninstall game, get refund
Anthony Carter
imagine a game like this but 40k
Cooper Howard
Couldn't even log into EA because the keyboard doesn't work properly for whatever reason with this game. Never refunded a game before. I just buy it again in a few weeks once they patched it all up.

Imagine putting out a space combat with broken controls for everything. The absolute state of EA

Mutt Dyker, the guy that wrote Battlefront 2's campaign is responsible for this one. He also worked at IGN for 5 years.
