EA makes a Star Wars and all of a sudden they are forgiven. :yikes:

I'll play this game because it's only $15, but I have pretty low expectations. Nothing shown up to this point has been interesting looking or exciting.

EA sucks but they have put out some good games from time to time. I think a lot of us are hoping that they let Respawn make a fun game without cramming in a real money pachinko machine or some other idiocy.

Respawn has a great track record, and made one of the best FPS campaigns in the last decade?

For if he like a madman lived,
At least he like a wise one died.

So (leaked trophy spoilers) since theres some achievement for defeating an enemy with "all lightsaber styles" and the icon is two crossed sabers, some are speculating that you'll get to dual wield sabers at some point - anyone far enough in the game to confirm/deny? That'd be neat if so

e: Also anyone running this on PC with lower-than-recommended specs? How does it run?

Only complaint so far is dodging being linked to the z key instead of spacebar which has gotten me killed so many times now.

Jumping but it looks like it is used for Dodge combos that you can unlock too.

Someone posted this regarding to unlocking early with origin. I left for work so I can’t test this out, but let me know if it works!


1. Close origin and control+alt+delete any related processes. (I also reinstalled origin itself, not any of my games including Star Wars but I don’t think that was necessary)

2. Delete the following folders:
Origin folder in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\
Origin folder in C:\Users\ <username> \AppData\Roaming\
Origin folder in C:\ProgramData
3. Start your VPN and connect to NZ

Killing all Origin processes, connecting my VPN through NZ, then opening Origin worked. VPN is managing ~15MB/s download as well, so not bad.

People are optimistic because it's developed by Respawn, who have an impeccable record of game releases, not because of the consumerist brand loyalty you're projecting onto others you hysterical dipshit

Sorry being right about a Star Wars game of all things makes you upset and angry. If it makes you feel better, that is a very low bar to get over.

Based solely on the leaked abilities video, it's the stupid double bladed lightsaber, not dual wielding.

No offense but you said earlier in the thread that Titanfall 2 failed because the multiplayer was too much like Call of Duty. You seem to have sort of a tin ear about Respawn, a company that literally told EA that they were going to release a game without marketing as an experiment and EA agreed. They absolutely have some leeway.

Also they do the thing where you lose a little bit of health if you gently caress up a platforming section, which is usually fine, but coupled with an estus health recovery system, I'd honestly just prefer either I flat out die or I just don't lose health at all.

Yeah, I have a feeling that--for now, at least--Respawn negotiated out a deal that gave them something of a carte blanche, and Apex's success would have only solidified that. I mean, on a very fundamental level is the fact that none of their games are on Frostbite. And EA pretty much mandated that all of its devs use Frostbite a few years back, no matter how unfit and engine it is for the type of game being made. Meanwhile, Respawn alone just kept using Source and now UE4, so they're definitely a special case.

lol they said what. like i am a weird hipster who likes the multiplayer in TF1 more but TF2 is still loving amazing and nothing like COD. respawn is one of the best devs out there, that goon is a fool.

part of me thinks its because they keep makeing winners, so EA is fine letting them do whatever. EA is poo poo but looks at how bad Bioware has become. A ton of that is EA's fault, but Bioware got high off their own farts and now believ in bioware magic or whatever and the last 2 games have been poo poo.
