Wait, what have you been playing? Just WA and Supremacy?
Hey everyone,
I finished all the online trophies
Just hit my 50 due to double xp.
I am stumped on Ackbar's Elite and On the Ball... ( Finish a Master Survival match in under 35 minutes, and finish Master Survival without dying)
Does anyone have any tips???
Thanks for your time.

So after watching The Force Awakens, I think we can say that helmet less stormtroopers aren't really a thing... Making their inclusion in this game even more ridiculous.
Oh, add supremacy to the list of modes I've barely played. I usually just play WA, cargo, and drop zone. I need to expand.

Hope double XP rolls around again at some point, maybe when the DLC drops.
Nah I feel ya. I usually stick to WA and occasionally Fighter Squadron for the extra XP.
But now that I've maxed ranked, WA it is. Turning Point on occasion, but that mode really needs more maps. I love that gametype.
Haha, I'm stuck on those, too.Hey everyone,

Hoth is supposed to be the easiest since you can hide in the hangar in the back. I would recommend beating it on Hard first so you can use your multiplayer hand.
Thanks for the response maybe I will take it down on hard myself tonight to unlock my hands.
If you don't get it done and are free in the future and need a hand feel free to add me.
I am pst and have work and kids and whatnot so my schedule is messy but I can make time.
Haha, cool. Xbox One?
Damnnn PS4, sorry I shouldn't assume things!
Good luck and if I do find a good strategy ill let ya know!

I would be happy with just information on the DLC, to be honest.
That's the latest thing. It's one of the more annoying card sets because you can't escape the bowcaster beams. Pair it with Bounty Hunter and you can keep doing it at level 3.
Not just that, but they also have it set with Explosive shot as well.
It's a nightmare.
For BF4 they did a full 2XP week last year as a new year's/holiday celebration thing. I think it ran from like the 28th till the 4th.
Maybe they'll do something like that with Battlefront to catch up all the new people getting into this game on the 25th.

That'd be nice, but I hope to god - with a season pass at that price - the DLC isn't just gonna be a few new maps and hero reskins. Hopefully some thematic DLC, like TFA-DLC with the heroes from that movie. Or a prequel DLC set just to throw in some variety.
Obi Wan as a new hero seems too obvious.
We will get 16 new maps, 20+ new starcards, vehicles and weapons, 4 new modes and 4 new heroes and villians. Plus free maps and star cards. And Yoda is listed as a voiceover at imdb

They need to add a prestige mode or something.
What is that?

Surprisingly I haven't been on the wrong end of that combination very often. What makes it so OP, outside of being a one-hit kill? Does it home in?
It's when you start all over again.

EhhhhhhhhBut with a shiny new icon next to your name
I don't have an issue prestiging so long as something is gained by doing so, gameplay wise. Like keeping an unlocked weapon or such.

Used a speeder bike for the first time. Who ever designed the controls for that thing must not sleep well at night.
I was expecting something like what a Sparrow in Destiny feels like, I have no clue what that was lol
Dont think I'll hop on one again, if not for the lulz.
Edit: Another page topper??

I'm sorry but if you become a hero on WA you have a duty to either protects the M-Coms or disable them.
Frustates me no end when I see heroes being used in dumb dumb ways.

No, but at level 3, bodyguard trait resets your cooldowns with each kill. So basically you jetpack up in the air, fire a fully charged bowcaster shot at the ground near someone/a group (it does explosive damage and the projectiles spread out horizontally so you don't have to be super accurate or anything), then when you get the kills, do it again. Plus, at level 3 you have a high chance of getting a powerup with each kill as well so you could also be pulling rocket launchers and imploders out of your butt in the process.
Now to be fair, you have to get to level 3 first, it's not terribly useful indoors, and the counter is to just fly away with your own jetpack if you see someone doing it, so I don't know that it's way overpowered (lots of shit in this game seems op, but if everything's op, then nothing is op. balance!), but it is more spam in an already spammy game.
heh. Bought the Rodian head and Tusken emote too (with droid dance, tusken and noooooooo, I have an appropriate emote for any situation!) . Unfortunately the fun factor didn't seem to increase in my experience
I've come to accept that the spine of the game just isn't terribly interesting to me, and being the spine, that's unlikely to change outside of some really different dlc experiences. With that said, can still see myself playing a bit here and there, but really hope they implement some big fixes soon. For example, I don't think the air spawns (dropping someone into the playable area with no control over the ship for a time while enemy ships are allowed to camp behind the spawn) are acceptable at all for a game of this era, 2005 era or whatever. It's shit in any era!

objective games make me rage so hard. why couldn't they just use the squad system from BF so that you can talk to your teammates?
Patience, young Padawan. We'll find the answers we seek soon enough.

Yeah I'm with you. I haven't bought the season pass yet but if they introduce even a few cool TFA content items, I'll jump in.

I did not play the game once during double XP weekend, lol. Loved the movie Friday night as well.

free dlc for everyone if everyone plays 500 hours each
I hope they will tell us if there is some reward. Boba fett was the most played hero is the first three weeks with 29.8 million minutes. 500 000 hours is 30 million minutes

That's really odd that they don't mention the prize. Usually we have something to look forward to giving us motivation to complete the task.

Yep. And I'm also wondering why it's specifically these two heroes.

How come Walker Assault maps don't rotate anymore? Seems to just play the same map.

You play each map twice; once as imperials and again as the rebels.
