Star Wars Battlefail currently has a 73 on metacritic with more mixed reviews than positive. It was obvious that this game was a cash grab lacking mode's.
It's sad to know that E.A. have the licence, the day's of great Star Wars games like KotOR are long gone.
What score do you guys think Star Wars Battlefront will achieve on metacritic over the next few days? My prediction is a 66 overall...
EDIT: PS4 version has a 74 overall. Link below...

EDIT 2: PC version is the lowest rated of all versions, the graphics will be vastly superior on PC. It currently has a 70. Link below....

Here are the numbers, look at how low the player base is for a new release. Star Wars BattleFail definitely flopped...
Shout out to DeusFever for bringing these stats to my attention...

Lol no it didn't. It got positive reviews and it's fun to play. Its also the best looking game of this console generation so far. I'd give it a solid 8/10.
-
Sooo...it's about as good as Destiny? Don't forget, everyone's mileage will vary.
-
Im pretty mad that i got the digital version and i cant get a refund.
-
Can we seriously go through one week of a new game before people post that it "flopped"? God damn you kids are pathetic.

Edited by Doc: 11/25/2015 4:19:41 PMBattlefield 4 wasn't the most fantastic thing at launch but ended up turning into content filled greatness and this is why I warded off buying battlefront until it drops in price.

Best looking game out to date
-
In other words, you dont like the game
-
Im just curious on why did you post this and what were you expecting? Its not like the game flopped and millions stopped playing.
-
At least we still have SWTOR.
-
Have you played it?
-
Not from what I've heard, my friends all say it's amazingly fun, I guess you'd trust reviews from random people than your friends eh...? [spoiler]if you had any[/spoiler]
-
Lucasarts did wayyy better..
-
73 is an average score. Hardly a flop. [spoiler]Compared to the earlier Battlefront titles, EA's Battlefront is a travesty.[/spoiler]
-
It's basically a shooter with the "Star Wars feel" thrown onto it. EA's way of License Advantaging.
-
Yeah the Beta was really telling. It was pretty crummy. Too many people equate great graphics with a great game, but that's not the case. Battlefront is what happens when EA kills Star Wars and walks around wearing it's skin.

Edited by Barry MacCockiner: 11/24/2015 10:32:04 PMI've seen more posture reviews than negative, not to mention it sold millions within this past week it's been out. Id say it far from flopped. It succeeded. Not to say it's not a cash grab. But I feel it's a fun, casual, immersive, game. Sure it's nothing too special but the attention to detail, and Battlefield style gameplay makes me want to play it.
-
Still better than destiny
-
Just play Battlefront 2 on PC
-
Yeah it's definitely a cash grab, but I knew that but reading pre launch articles, and playing the beta. I did my own research, made my own opinions, and decided not to buy. Who gives a flying fuk about reviews. I am an adult, I know what I like and what I don't. Some of my favorite games score around a 70 on metacritic. It's turned into a bit of a game with me and my buddies actually.
-
The movie will probably be bad as well.
-
Not really a flop. I'll be playing it for a year or two. Along with other games. It's a pretty fun casual game.
-
Maybe so, too early to say yet. It's holiday season and most say scale up a little later. As for my opinion on the game. I find it a nice title. Though it lacks in quantity it does make for it on quality. I have been able to kill with most guns (that I don't suck with, look at the pulse cannon). That actually does demonstrate merit of balancing of equipment. Though I admit I do miss the clone wars era and the class system in Battlefront 2. All in all is quite decent, one could even call it a good multiplayer game. I wonder what the expansions will hold. Eitherway different variables make this game a hit or a miss for some.
-
It definitely needs more to it but overall I'd say its not that bad of a game. If there could be some gun customization in it that'd be awesome.
-
Why do you think the Metacritic score means anything? Also, if you're basing your views on a game on how reviewers and other players view it, rather than your own informed feelings based on your experience with the game, you're a fool.
-
It really didn't flop
-
Want to base everything off of reviews, fine. But don't use that Metacritic bullshit.
