I don't get where all this hate is coming from (actually some of it) but most of it seems to be and yes I'm gonna say it, butt hurt fanboys who don't think it lives up to the "originals" and I respect that but as someone who loves the originals I like this a lot. But anyhow.. I love the beta so far! I'm gonna break it down into sections: [b]Visuals[/b] Stunning visuals and graphics, blaster effects, explosions, and overall effects are gorgeous. Feels like I'm in the movie, very surreal when I look over a cliff or over a trench and see blasters whizzing by and tie fighter squadrons barely touching the ground as they fly by and rebel fighters in hot pursuit. Nothing bad to say here. Can't wait to see other stunning maps [b]10/10[/b] [b]Audio[/b] Probably my one of my favorite parts of the beta/game. The sound of blasters whizzing across the battlefield, enemy ships flying down (especially the iconic tie fighter sound effect) and hearing them fire blasters. the oh so terrifying sound of a lightsaber unsheathing, or a Grenade ticking, just seconds from exploding, or the sound of a AT-ST thundering around a corner. The muffled thuds of a orbital strike hitting your squad shield praying it last. And the legendary John Williams orchestras is spine tingling. It's Star Wars Audio at its best. [b]Also 9.5/10 simply because sometimes the music just cuts awkwardly for no reason but comes back after a few seconds (again it happens rarely) /b] [b]Gameplay (Infantry)[/b] Playing as a soldier is very fun. Instead of being highly overpowered you are just as strong as the person next to you (besides your bumper abilities which can be different) forcing you to think tactically. Running is fine and not clunky (I honestly have no idea what people are talking about) shooting your blaster feels great (very aged future if I do say so myself) , active reload is fun and not annoying if you are smart. Active "cards" (abilities) are balanced, jump pack is lots of fun to use. Overall infantry gameplay is smooth and I never found myself having a issues. Although some animations could be improved but that is expected in a beta. [b]8/10 because of animation bugs at time but does not affect gameplay and it is expected with the beta [/b] [i]I will update this soon as something has just come up irl [/i]
