Okay, so lets really get into this and dis spell the myths here. So lets get to the crux of this, and the one thing that everyone is saying that annoys the hell out of me … “Oh this is just a battlefield reskin!” The other game mode was Survival on Tatooine, and at this point I would point out that all the screenshots showing a downed star destroyer in the background with everyone screaming “JAKKU” Well no, it’s Tatooine, so just throwing that out there to start.
This alpha was a tech focused alpha with only two game modes available, “Walker Assault” Which is based on the snow world of Hoth and is played over two rounds, So you get the experience of either defending Echo Base against the Imperials or destroying Echo base and the rebellion. More recently though Star Wars Battlefront just went through it’s first phase of closed Alpha Testing, and I was lucky enough to be among the first to test the Alpha. Star Wars Battlefront will soon make it’s return to the world of P.C and Console gaming in a big way in November this year spearheaded by DICE, the studio behind such games as Battlefield 4 and Mirror’s Edge.
