If the gods are merciful we might get a trooper weekend and that might be it.
Will this game get support throughout 2020?
With Ep.9 around the corner they are probably already working full steam on movie content- given how long they need to create new content, and I surely expect nothing to come from the August announcement, since Dice has shown time and again that their priorities lie not with infantry.
It‘s really sad, I always imagine large scale epic trooper battles on these gorgeous looking maps...
...and then a hero comes along.
We have no stats, no private’s,, no map selection, no party indicator, no new or decent weapons, a ttk that closer to sticks and stones that guns, no infantry focus, and a hero obsessed Pb tthat wants any and everything nerfed ot taken out if it threatens hero play.
I’m callin it, the day they announce they’re done with content drops is when this game goes full Titanic mode, bf15 will be around longer imo.
Already looking forward for infantry being overlooked once more in this months announcement,
but I would gladly be proven wrong, Dice.
Anywho, new weapons and new/ported maps for Extraction would be a great way to get more trooper oriented content.
Guess what? Heroes are part of the Battlefront.
For DICE, heroes are Battlefront sadly. They didnt get why people loved the franchise over 10 years ago. Now we stuck with a mediocre Hero slasher in the Star Wars Universe
Playing as infantry is so far beyond being pointless that I’m lost for words.
I would ask those who oppose an infantry mode (devs, feel free to join in) to spend 7 proper gaming days in succession as infantry- as in only the base 4 classes, and be truthful to at least themselves how much they’ve enjoyed it.
Do it! It’s great fun 👍🏻
Its been for the better? Yeah pls go back to reddit and troll and shill their...
Is there a ignore function on this forum? So i dont have to read such garbage.
Seems you only like Battlefront for nostalgia and have no reservations for any innovations like DICE has brought to the table. There's probably no pleasing you.
Not shilling, just praising a game I love playing.
Yeah you trooperlords really love ignoring different opinions don't you.
The problem, we (those, who are writing comments in this thread) or some of us have, isn't, that we don't want to have heroes at all. We just want to get anything trooper-related (skins doesn't really count as content). Since lauch, 6 heroes have been released, lots of balancing patches, a new lightsaber-combat-system and i believe, there is more to come. But in that time, we got no new weapons, no new trooper star cards, just one new mode (i don't really count EH and JPC as trooper-modes, since you can't change your class), which has only two maps, some of the primary trooper-weapons got nerfed and some of us are giving up hope, that there is ever something more to come.
I'm going to echo these sentiments. The game gets way more bashing than it deserves. I main GA and still enjoy it and we are nearly 2 years in. I have only ever really been disappointed in content drops and the anti climax that was CS.... It's still ok, just not what I was hoping for.
Game play and modes are really enjoyable otherwise I'd have deleted ages ago.
The Devs are never going to please everyone. They do a great job.

they DON'T care.
that night, i knew you were the one with brains. always respected your posts.
fighting windmills, dude...
PS. As a Clone Wars fan, take a break on the clone wars content for little bit, other eras should also be seen.
Goodbye, be civilized, and I'll see you on the battlefront.
Man I feel for you guys, SA modes and lack of offline content was some of the main complaints of the last game. Instead we get a game outta left field full of heroes with little to no infantry support and virtually no SA support.

If they add trooper weapons at gamescon I’ll drink 5 bottles of water
More infantry focused stuff please. Not reinforcements, not heroes, or vehicles: the basic infantry classes. I love all three of those things, but they're sides to the main course.
He knew.
Surprised we haven’t had another accidentally on purpose crashed speeder leak.
Anyway I’m good mates with Psychic Sally and Here’s her Gamescon prophecy...
1. 4 new heroes coming to BF2
2. Another clone wars era map
3. Offline game mode (GA or CS)
4. Some secret squirrel stuff that they can’t talk about yet, but we all know it relates to an Episode IX cash in courtesy of the house of mouse.
5. Nothing for trooper classes.
Thanks Sally!
I fear the August announcement is the last chance to change something for infantry, i don’t know if there will be more support in 2020.
Of course I don’t expect anything, but if troopers are overlooked again this month, infantry gameplay will hit an all time low.
Devs, you still have time to whip up at least an announcement for infantry content until the End of August. Surprise us.
Ditto for Star Cards -- let them be cross-class.
This would get us back to close to where troopers were at the end of BF2015.
I’ve once suggested somewhere to open up a new customizable 150hp trooper slot for which we could pick our weapons and starcards to our liking.
Since the middle ability is tied to an animation it might have to be sacrificed for this to work, but it would open up a slot for another starcard.
Since we don’t get new starcards and new weapons the class system has become way too restrictive and hasn’t adapted to the changes/additions to the game.
They should at least drop the left/right restrictions of the starcards.
This alone would liven up infantry gameplay massively.
Bug fixes aren't content updates. Bug fixes should always be an ongoing thing.
4 heroes? Are you sure?
Agree, I’ve about given up on anything that doesn’t cater to the casual weekend Starwars fans, which is what this game was clearly made for. It’s all about heroes so the average player can be good, I mean we don’t even have stats or private matches.
Then they’re buffing heroes again for the casual crowd, yet at the same time thy keep nerfing anything that harms them, its actually become pretty pathetic with the spoon feeding, even for a casual game.
I actually think the casual gamer has moved on from this game. I don't think they cater to the casual gamers much anymore. A casual gamer won't stick around long enough to toil through the game to "git gud" enough to grab an aerial, much less a hero in GA or CS before the dedicated Hero-Worshipper does. In the XBox & PS4 platforms, I see the same players suit up in to Heroes time and again. They're all about slaughtering the helpless as well. There's nothing casual about them aside from their egos.
This basically. This games seems to revolve around those that can master BP accumulation/spawn screen campers and then killstreak with a hero in GA/CS. I would not call that for the casual gamer.
Said this many times, I wish the CS ground phase maps were used for a new infantry only (Base 4) mode. Seems like that would be easy, and not demand many resources.
I would like that.
Yeah that would be cool... maybe change GA to the trooper only mode and keep CS as is? Just a thought. back to extraction now.
