It is a terrific introduction for people new to online FPSs. It takes elements from almost every genre and makes an FPS.

I rarely play FPSs on pcs, but this game just hooked me. I can jump in a jet, take it clear across a level, parachute out, destroy enemy radar, steal an enemy tank, demolish an enemy base until someone tosses C4 on my armored vehicle, and die with a smile.

This game has a future much akin to Everquest. Pale, glazed-over eyes, and a fantastic computer will be the attributes of any Battlefront player. A fantastic computer is what you will need in order to play this game, since the last few computers I’ve tried to play this game with have not been able to operate it. I have been able to play this game, though, only by paying by the hour at a pc gaming center. By the hour… ouch.

The controls are all good or bad depending on how you make of them. I suggest you find a setting that suits you best and stick with until you can perfectly make a running jump, since that is probably the hardest maneuver to pull of on a computer keyboard for me.

The graphics are beautiful, but can certainly be a heavy load on your pc’s processing power. Trudging across a wide river on foot is a lot easier when the water effects make you wanna go to the little boy’s room.

Game play is fantastic. Take your pick from the stinger missile shooting anti-tank kit to the electric shock paddle toting medic kit. Each have their share of weaknesses and strengths, but they are all in their own way balanced. Even when things get somewhat tedious, you start to get unlocks that will level the playing field.

“This steller sequel makes dramatic improvements to a successful formula.” -PC Gamer

I’ve played FPSs all my life and this game is definitely a whole lot deeper than any Wolfenstein or Halo i’ve ever played.
