It sounds like a marketing strategy to get more people to buy it.But now that the DLC has been confirmed to be for free, this shouldn't be an issue anymore.4 planets =/= 4 maps.Where are people getting this 4 maps shit from?Previously every planet had one map with a possible space battle (that doesn't really change anything besides what planet is below you); unless they've otherwise said that there's more than one location per planet, we have to go by what Battlefront has always done: planet = map.

It's not as if Battlefront has ever had a proper campaign anyways. Does no-one remember BF2? Seriously? The co-op missions will more than make up for it.

The co-op missions will more than make up for it.The BF2 campaign was a series of missions with "objectives" you had to complete, interspersed with cutscenes.Also Galactic Conquest, which is without a doubt the game mode that I played the most on BF2. Made it to General against Elite AI years ago. Fun as hell.

But playing as infantry was my favorite part of Battlefront, you actually felt like a trooper in the army with a squad (some times) and you were pretty much expendable yet badass. Playing as a Hero just felt off to me.

Well, guess i'm not going to buy star wars games now.EA, FUCK YOU AND YOUR SHIT COMPANY, THIS IS NOT A GARBAGE MONEY GRABING GAME, THIS IS STAR WARS, DON'T FUCK WITH THE STAR WARS COMMUNITY YOU GREEDY PEICE OF SHITS!
EA really shit the bed on this one. They've had so long to include content, and they know what fans want from this, but they played it safe with the four big-hitter maps. Those maps better be goddamn spectacular. I'm not thrilled about weapon unlocks and what appears to be a focus on first-person.
