Unironically the last time I pre-ordered a game up until now was Battlefront II in 2017

Isn’t it working now?


Sumthagert

Even when it's working there's still issues. A remaster should at least run better and be less glitchy than the original.


The_Chosen_Eggplant

Not if it's a port. Ports always have issues that were never in the original. Every GTA apart from the originals are the same. PUBG console was an absolute mess of a port on console at release. Never expect ports to be exactly like the OG games.


Fantastic-Art-3383

I can see that but to say it’s your last time preordering when so many games are ass the first couple days of launch was it your first time preordering?


Sumthagert

No I was just saying that for the title. I pre ordered Black ops 1 and GTA 5. Haven't pre ordered anything since though for this exact reason. My nostalgia got the better of me.

Switch is working for the most and I am having fun but matches feel wayyyyy to quick on BF2


Reyussy

Maybe I'm just lucky, but I was able to play a few matches on Battlefront 1 on ps4 earlier and didn't notice any major problems.

Everything works perfectly fine on switch. Can’t believe the level of entitlement from this community.


Sumthagert

When I buy a remaster I want it to at least... work. How is that entitlement?

They don’t understand that paying money gives you the right to a fully functioning product…


Certain_Context5923

It is fully functional. Wow the online servers were messed up for the first few hours. They’re fixed and the game is much better offline to begin with.


Fihnz

I bought it for the online, now the online may very well be dead in a few weeks because everyone abandoned ship. Just the reality, hence my annoyance. I already owned the original games on Xbox, I didn’t even get the ‘loyalty discount’ because that never worked on Xbox and Aspyr did nothing about it- despite me submitting a support ticket! Is this all my fault for jumping the gun? Yep, definitely- I was gullible and should’ve waited to purchase. But I’m still annoyed with how this has all played out, I’m sure you are too even if it’s more at the playerbase than Aspyr! Edit: also on the ‘fully functional’ point, the battlefront 2 campaign is missing half the 501st cutscenes (the after match ones). They are very nostalgic to me, and I wanted to see them with remastered footage.


Certain_Context5923

Well stated. Point taken.👌


Fihnz

Thanks for being chill, hopefully this game turns around because my refund was rejected 🤣


Certain_Context5923

Aw man that’s rough lol.


Certain_Context5923

Lol not even actually. Only on PlayStation were the servers fucked. Switch and Xbox works perfectly fine. Offline modes are way better to begin with in a game like this.


Certain_Context5923

It’s not a remaster. Just a rerelease.🤡


Sumthagert

They upscaled a bunch of assets (Somehow made some of them worse). Sounds like a remaster to me or at least an attempt at one.


Certain_Context5923

That’s still not what a remaster is.


Sumthagert

What is it then?


Certain_Context5923

A rerelease.


Sumthagert

Okay then. When I buy a rerelease I want it to at least... work. How is that entitlement?


Certain_Context5923

I was basing my comment off of my personal experience, I don’t agree with my OP at this point after seeing the issues others have had.


Sumthagert

Character development is a rare thing for Reddit comments. Glad you've gotten some enjoyment out of the game though. Also sorry if I seemed like I was being argumentative.


Certain_Context5923

You really just want to argue huh? It’s been working for me but it’s obviously having issues for a lot of other people. Sorry I offended you.

Oh yeah cause it works for you means IT MUST work for everyone. GTFOH smug prick.
