But what happens when they inevitably add more in the patch hahaTHANK FUCKING JESUS
NEVER TALK TO ME OR MY SON AGAIN TALLIE/DARTH MAUL
Otherwise, great job.
It's INCREDIBLE how broken the Emperor is. Played GA for a few hours tonight, literally without exaggeration every single game an all-Epic Emperor single-handedly carried the other team to victory. E V E R Y S I N G L E M A T C H. Outside of literal broken games/glitches this is officially the most broken thing I've seen in a multiplayer game in my 30+ years of gaming. I just cannot believe this wasn't hotfixed top priority all hands on deck at DICE fixed weeks ago. It's fucking wild.
Also whatever rebalancing thing they did in the last patch does NOT account for Squads confirmed. I'm going like 40-4 with 14k points in first place on the losing team with 2nd place on my team going like 15-10 with 7k points, opposing team has 5+ dudes all with 20k+ points and ridiculous elimination counts. I stayed in one lobby for like an hour where the top 6 (7?) dudes were all incredible fucking monsters with 50+ eliminations each whereas I'm on the other team with a score literally 3-4x the 2nd place person on my team. I actually finally messaged the top player to see if they were all partied up because I had to fucking know and he said yes. So thanks DICE, it's real cool of you to place me against players of equal skill level but not account for squads so it's basically 1v6 because it always parties me with complete idiots, apparently in the sake of trying to balance? Except for one, maybe two matches I was first place on my team EVERY game, and I was on the losing team EVERY game, across about 3, maybe 4 hours of play. That is legitimately fucked up.
This next patch needs to hit ASAP, definitely done with GA after tonight until a Senate fix at the very, very least. (I bet there's no way they nerf him appropriately and/or they can't fix him doing lightning through walls) And after the ~50 hours it took me to grind out SA for those Milestones (I got through the first 44 episodes of My Brother My Brother and Me after I'd already started on them) I have zero interest in playing more of that anytime soon lol.

OP

This plus they need to fix team rebalancing is pretty much the tl;dr of my post lol
I'm not gonna lie, I had a rough week this week so I was saltier last night than I should have been, but it's still horseshit of the highest order.
Not a fix but regular TDM is still a good time, no palp or anything. Good in burst play.
This game needs new weapons tho in the worst way, I need some different blasters to mess with.

Hero pick ups?!
Other than the item/hero pickups (which are still absolute trash) quite honestly BF2015 feels and plays better overall than BF2. I played for a while this morning and was able to instantly pick it up again no problem. Some observations from going back to it:
-God I miss emoting being a thing so, so much
-Why do Luke's to this day STILL try to challenge AT-ST's????
-Most of the maps are great, really hope to see most of them get ported over
-Guns overall feel much better and the blaster bolts look significantly better (we'll see what this patch in BF2 does)
BF2015 still has significant issues even outside of hero pickups (I was one-shot Bo Rifle'd by someone named "Waiting4BF2" 5 times in one match LOL) but it's a much tighter experience that in a lot of ways "feels" much better. We realllllly need new guns in BF2, there's only like 2 or 3 that I like okay, and none that I love or super enjoy using. There's like 5 guns in BF2015 I love using.
Yeah but heroes are no match for a good fighter pilot in the big modesHero pick ups?!
Unless you're playing Endor
God I hated playing on the Endor maps there
I don't want to get my hopes up, but I think this could be a patch to make the game worth playing.
Fingers crossed.
Fingers crossed.
Yea I love blast, just fun to jump right in.. I love the large modes with battlefront and Battlefield etc. But tdm is still so much fun
Blast is still a mess with the special units, Wookies are dramatically stronger than the special units on the other side. I've only seen the absolute shittiest Rebel/Resistance teams lose.
Speaking of losing, after speaking with some friends today who seem to consistently experience the same thing I've been bitching about for weeks now (getting fucked but team rebalancing, aka it doesn't exist) I decided to spend a couple hours and do some testing. Per the patch notes here for 1/24/18 they implemented the following team rebalancing:
I have found this....not to be the case, but had attributed it largely to being faced against squads of people and the game just not accounting for that, which is fucked but okay sure. But I decided to stay in the same lobby for an extended period of time to see what happened. I never saw a single person get moved. I even kept track to make sure I wasn't crazy and this was me just being a shitty player and complaining! The "place" is what place I got on my team with the thinking that if I either did really well or really bad it would have to shuffle accordingly, and then I just eyeballed the top 4-5 players on each team at the end of the round to see what happened on map change:
Why do you do this to me DICE.

- Hoth - Won - 1st place (worth noting this was probably the hardest team carry victory I have ever pulled off in a game in my life, I am uploading this shit)
- Hoth - Lost - 1st place, I don't notice any top player changes to Takodana
- Takodana - Lost - 3rd place
- Takodana - Lost - 3rd place, I don't notice any top player changes to Crait
- Crait - Lost - 2nd place
- Crait - Won - 2nd place (by 30 points ;_;), I don't notice any top player changes to Kashyyyk
- Kashyyyk - Lost - 4th place
- Kashyyyk - Lost - 2nd place, I don't notice any top player changes to Death Star 2
- Death Star 2 - Lost - 7th place
- Death Star 2 - Lost - 6th place. I make a list of the top 10 players on each side, NO ONE GETS MOVED
- Jakku - Lost - 5th place
- Jakku - Lost - 1st place, I make a list of the top 10 players on each aside, and again NO ONE GETS MOVED
Why do you do this to me DICE.

If the Emperor is not touched somehow in the next patch, game is being sold
Feels like wookies die quicker than before. I've downed them a lot easier lately.
But even still in Blast it doesn't matter much, I can still come in first or second with any of the other classes

It needs to be or I'm uninstalling lol, already haven't played in over 2 weeks
They are a bit easier to kill, but their damage output is still ridiculous. Anyone who knows what they're doing will still mop up. And if there's two or three wookies on a team and they know how to play? Well, I hope you're not on the bad guy's team.
Well honestly for me if I run into a match like that soon as it's done I just bail out and get new players, match to match its really not bad but that's just me
Especially after the stealth graphical upgrade we got a few weeks back.
Looking mighty fine.
Biggest things I wish right now currently outside of the obvious would be the ability to select what our characters look like per class and not based on the map. Like how in 15 we had more control of how our characters look in the map.
And more guns I just need more guns so badly to play with. That is a huge deterrent right now, but it's good they're finally kicking into gear.

I doubt anything like this is a high priority for DICE, but I'd appreciate a kind of test range mode where you can experiment with any kind of trooper, weapon, vehicle or hero at your leisure and on any map.
Was having such a good time using the Officer's Disruptor in Blast.
I kept getting right into close combat with Death Troopers last night, using the disruptor to save my bacon and win a gunfight I had no right to survive.

It is pretty funny to bait someone into chasing you for an "easy kill" only to zap their weapons and blast them.
Yep.
Still no announcement of server maintenance / patch release
Despite the issues I have fun playing. Needs way more weaponry tho, damn. I want to play Assault more but they just don't feel right.
Did they nerf the el16?
Did they nerf the el16?
Sucks
On a brighter note damn, burst mode on the A280-CFE is freaking awesome....anyone else a fan?
It was probably the best gun in the beta. For full release I was using either the El-Hefe or CR-2 for assault
I love it man, I didn't mess with specialist much but this changed it all for me, love it.
Did they nerf the EL16?
I haven't heard anything about an El-Hefe nerf. Last patch added scope glare to the dual zoom mod but that's about it.
