Based EA Access, Is there no way to see file size, download speed, or a time estimate on XB1? I thought there was but all I see is a percentage sign with no info.

Settings>Network>Bandwidth Usage

Battlefront on X1 I believe is 19 GB

 

[Alpha Phoenix]

Why did Sony have to deny EA access on PS4?

Im jealous X1 gaffers.

They deemed it not a good value. In fact, I believe EA approached Sony first as well.

Obviously they were wrong. Someone at Sony must be cursing themselves over that decision.

 

[Aeqvitas]

downloading from EA access. Probably won't finish before bed

Figure 10 hours should be plenty to decide if it is worth shelling out the discounted price, or wait till it's in the vault.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

in a supremacy match wooo, its hoth tho lol

 

[matrixman92]

man, this is downloading slow...back to fallout for now

 

[Tawpgun]

How are people downloading it? Won't appear as a free trial for me yet

 

[Klocker]

17% in 9 minutes

Loads game at 18%.. haha let's you play as DV while it Downloads

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Wootz, got it downloading over 15% now. Wish it had gone up earlier so it was ready to play at Midnight, but alas.

 

[Jtrizzy]

in a supremacy match wooo, its hoth tho lol

Ha ha I was just thinking that I'll end up on Hoth in my first match. Can't wait to see Endor though. Downloading is going quickly for me.

 

[Navy Bean]

Downloading... Part of me hopes I don't really like it because I don't need another game right now lol...

 

[JDHarbs]

I should've been smarter than this. I haven't turned on my XB1 in weeks, now I'm stuck updating before I can download.

 

[CaptainCook]

Downloading... Part of me hopes I don't really like it because I don't need another game right now lol...

Yeah really, between this fallout, tomb raider, halo 5 and soon just cause 3 I'm stacked. Not that I can complain lol

 

[OléGunner]

Here we go!
Xb1 guys have fun and give us the nitty gritty details.

 

[matrixman92]

anyone know if streaming works? I think it was blocked in the beta for some reason on xbox

 

[LegalEagleMike]

walker assault on endor time...

 

[friskykillface]

Wired connection is going by fast , already at 40%

Let's do thisssss

 

[shwimpy]

downloading now! don't usually like competitive FPS' but it's Star Wars.

 

[Falchion]

I'll be burning through my 10 hour trial tonight and this weekend.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Those with early access, please report back on how good the other planets look.

 

[JigglesBunny]

Downloading now!

Thinking if I go two hours a day, that'll be a good way to go until Tuesday. Cannot wait to see if Endor is even half as good as it's reveal looked. Get hyped!

 

[FreeQuebec86]

1 guy is streaming !

http://www.twitch.tv/uni05

i post it, because i think it's ea access, so it's legit can't be ban.

Endor is the culmination of my life as a nerd.

 

[Backfoggen]

How are people downloading it? Won't appear as a free trial for me yet

Go to "view in store"

 

[Seventy_X_Seven]

The one guy on twitch keeps calling Leia "Princess Bitch" and is getting so annoying. Hurry up better humans and start steaming this for your Playstation brothers and sisters.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Endor is the culmination of my life as a nerd.

That's actually the one I want to see the most lol
Looks amazing from the vids.

 

[JigglesBunny]

Endor is the culmination of my life as a nerd.

 

[RoKKeR]

Shiiiieeet, got distracted by actually being productive! Downloading now, crawling. Hyped to jump in.

 

[Klocker]

Almost there..' 85%

 

[Jtrizzy]

played a little as Vader, it's fun as hell. I have no friends on XBL if anyone would invite me I'd appreciate it. Jtrizzy1 is my username.

 

[ST3K3LLY]

Just quit out till its installed, not wasting my 10 hours playing that.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

just won my first match of walker assault on endor as the Rebels. Only one AT-AT on endor assault btw. Imperials didnt even seem to be going for the control points, I think everyone was too busy climbing up the trees and looking around.

On to Sullust.

 

[atr0cious]

Endor is the culmination of my life as a nerd.

Main reason I'll be buying this game. I need those speeders. The pod racing game was but a taste of what could be.

 

[JDHarbs]

Played the Vader installation game for a few minutes. Seems like Survival as Heroes. I don't think this was an announced feature of that mode. Would be cool if it's in the full game.

Not wasting my trial to keep playing though especially when it brought my download to a crawl.

Very cool. I hope more games adopt this sort of mini-game while installing thing.

I think the downloads themselves have slowed to a crawl though.

 

[aw350]

(A bit late to this, love the screens and the description. Will watch from here.)

 

[Woo-Fu]

Why isn't EA access a thing on PC?

Microsoft doesn't have to negotiate deals like this to spice up the Windows platform.

 

[gossi]

For anybody wondering - yes, there are several ways to bypass the EA Access 10 hour trial window. For one, make a guest account.

 

[LaNaranja]

Awesome OT. I am more than a little bummed that split screen is only for coop. I had been under the impression that is was available for online multiplayer too. :/

Still day one regardless. Just to be clear, it is possible to unlock Han's blaster in the standard edition of the game right? If so, is the deluxe edition really just $10 more for 2 emotes? That seems crazy.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Any impressions from Endor on XboxOne?

 

[JDHarbs]

Yup. Those Deluxe Edition weapons are just early unlocks. You'll get them in the game eventually without it.

 

[RoKKeR]

Well, download is really crawling so I probably won't be able to play any tonight. Hoping I can hop on for a bit tomorrow, looking forward to reading some impressions.

 

[iBlue]

Game is installed on my PS4 now just gotta wait for the release.

 

[gossi]

God, the servers are empty. This is me, I can't start any game mode other than Deathmatch (even then I can only find a couple of players).

It doesn't help that Deathmatch (Blaster mode) takes up 80% of the multiplayer screen. The other modes are tiny icons.

 

[shwimpy]

my xb1 speeds are so damn slow compared to other platforms. probably worse than ps3 speeds.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

3 walker assault wins in a row. ion torpedo is nice and unlocks early.

 

[zedge]

85%.... I need to be up early but I want to try a few rounds lol. FWP

 

[PSYGN]

I want to play that mode with the small map and no vehicles where there's only one capture point at a time. I wonder how the other maps will be like in that mode. If there's only like 5 maps for that mode then I'll pass.

 

[Klocker]

Maps are insane.. gorgeous ...

Spoiler

if only higher res but still nice

Gonna take a while to learn some of these maps

 

[RoKKeR]

Thought this was funny/sad:

Cool. A game I am embargoed on is now available to play for 10 hours by anyone with EA Access. Share your exclusive reviews, Internet!

Kind of ridiculous to have an embargo when the full game is *out* and can be streamed/reviewed without NDA by anybody with EA Access.

 

[friskykillface]

Lol I tried to take on an at st as Luke and got stomped on

RIP Luke
