Star Wars Battlefront II's Single Player Campaign Will Last 5-7 Hours

Earlier this week, I got to play through the earlier portions of Star Wars: Battlefront II’s single player campaign and speak to Motive’s studio producer David Robillard about the single player campaign specifically. As soon as the single player campaign was announced earlier this year, gamers were questioning the length.

[-Foxtrot]

Really? That's the best they could do when they've made it a story of what happens after Return of the Jedi

I'm upset this will be canon now because it's such a wasted story. I would have rather seen a film which would be a spiritual successor to Rogue One, that film was set between 3 and 4 so I was hoping there would be another one set between 6 and 7. Now they will have to tip toe around this story.

Should have been a film.

Rouge One was trash we don't need another

[BrettAwesome]

No it wasn't

[bloop]

I didn't mind Rogue One at all. It filled in a glaring plot hole from A New Hope so I wouldn't say it was thrash. Although I do think Disney could be making better use of the material. I couldn't care less about the Solo spin off. They have so much to work with and they decide to make a film about a young Han Solo??!! Why not make a movie about what Vader got up to during the great Jedi Purge instead?! There's so many better stories that could be told.

Rogue One was fantastic

It was better then the prequel trilogy and was better then the Force Awakens

[Miss_Weeboo]

Ha ha, I'm definitely not buying this

[osamaq]

Me neither

[Bobafret]

And a 15 minute speed run.

[equal_youth]

That is way too long, can i beat it faster with some Microtransactions? /s

[HeWhoDabs710]

EA is fucking trash

[Mikey94]

EA is trash but no one crys about how a call of duty campaign is the same length. I don't get whats with all the hate towards EA sure they make stupid decisions. But why do people act like EA is the devil about everything.

Oh they have loot crates fuck EA. Meanwhile games like Overwatch, Gears of War, call of duty etc... all have loot crates and no one ever really makes a comment about it. But oh EA puts loot crates in their game and uses the same system as all these others and all of a sudden people start trashing EA. I just don't get it.

And its all funny to me to how much trash EA gets yet some of their games are some of the most successful fames out their. All this talk about how bad their games are yet they always seem to sell millions upon millions and i'm willing to bet Battlefront 2 will do the same.

[TheOttomatic91]

So Essentially Battlefront 2 is MP focused with micro transactions with a half assed SP then.

[Prince_TFK]

Kindda expected for these kind of games really. But I am disappointed as well.

Well you can’t expect more from EA and their new directions. Single player campaign don’t sell as much lootboxes and MT.

[DeadSilence]

Lmao this game gonna be crap.

[DeadSilence]

Just put my money on Cod and Wolfenstein.

[plmkoh]

What were people expecting? Like every other Battlefront it's just a bunch of multiplayer maps with bots tied together with some story.

[TheColbertinator]

Not bad but I expected more from a star wars story.

[Pantz]

that's an average time for a shooter

[gangsta_red]

....Just play it on hard mode...

[chris235]

so it will be the usual week of single player for more common gamers. but still, not buying multiplayer centered titles. no fun.

[mandingo]

Weak

[tigertron]

Typical EA...

[Skuletor]

Wait for pricedrop status confirmed

[stefd75]

Dont really get the hate, I just want to play it and have fun.

[Artemidorus]

The main focus is multiplayer because as fun as it might be they want more and extra money from people.

This gaming culture is so toxic thanks to borh business types and fans who keep paying for deadbeat ideas.

[NickAwesome]

A single player campaign should be at least 8-10 hours long, enough with the supershort campaigns of first person shooters like battlefield and call of duty!

[theXtReMe1]

Looks like Ill use one of my free Redbox rentals to play this game and return it the same day, just a few hours later. LoL.
The developers knew gamers wanted single player and knew it was going to be a big part of why many would buy it and deliver a 6 hour game. Absolutely pathetic. Im glad they wont be getting any money from me.
