Lol, was just about to post this comparison. We have the rebellion looking like a United Colors of Benetton ad and the empire looking like some evil white Abercrombie models. Actually makes me want to play the game assuming I can play as the master race and blow the diversity hires out of the sky.

You've seen Return of the Jedi right? This isn't exactly new.

The fact that they have player models makes me excited that maybe you have to actually board the enemy flagship to win once you bring down the defenses, ala Titan Mode in BF2142.

Nah I don't recall any black chicks in ROTJ, unless they were in the background looting the burnt down Death Star at the end.

So you also remember when games were good and did exciting new things?

Angels Fall First uses a similar mold.

It's odd that a $40 price point makes me uneasy. Don't have to pay anything for it w/ Origin Premiere, but hope we get a nice campaign and some good co-op skirmish vs AI out of it.

Looking forward to EA Play later this week to see how it plays, very interested in how it plays in VR.

I read it wasn't like a "full" game and more like a "DLC" in size.

the studio claims there will be no microtransactions but who knows what instead they will put in. Megatransactions? Monthly battlepasses?

They're still there but renamed micro transactions to reparations to support BLM.

There's a jive black dude with a cape and a weird mushroom head man flying the Millennium Falcon.

Finally, a Star Wars space pew-pew game. It's sad that it took this long for it to happen.

There is a gay dude with too much make up on that says in a feminine voice “got it”. Entire shot lasted 2 seconds.

Looks like an updated Venator-class Star Destroyer. Smaller but primarily used as a fighter carrier.

Gameplay wise it appears to be some kind of escort.

People are saying this is MOBA-like so maybe there are bot ships in addition to players and the escort ships are what spawn the bots?

Just watched the EA live and this is just battlefront 2 flying part of the game. I mean it even looks like they copied battlefront 2 levels. Crossplay even in VR.
