Presumably that's top end gaming rig (PC) footage?

Does look amazing.

Watched the same trailer earlier on another forum and it said PS4 captured gameplay. Certainly has a triangle button press in it somewhere too which would tie in with that.

Looks a cracker but I do wonder if it'll get boring very quickly once the SW nostalgia wears off.

A blaster doesn't sound as good as an M16 does it.....

Looks pretty much like Battlefield with Star Wars things instead. What's not to love!?!!?

A bit of multiplayer footage from Hoth.

It will be the game that makes me get a next gen console. Can I play it on an old LCD TV though..? May have to get a new one..

I want it to be november already!

Looks very good Only 2 things worried me in the clip though

• Hip fire has little recoil so negates the need for ADS.

• 3rd person on foot will be used to spot players behind walls etc.i know vehicles have 3rd person in previous titles but infantry having it just seems wrong for am FPS.

Hoping the maps are large with a good sized playable area.

[youngsyr]

I've played a couple of FPS games with 3rd person views, I honestly suspect you'll forget the difference within minutes.

In my experience Battlefied (Dice/EA) games have a lot of longevity - there are just so many different ways to kill other players, from the sublime to the ridiculous.

E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5Y6hO1H1tw

Feck. Hell of a replay right there!

One of Battlefied's tag lines is: "Only in Battlefield" and it's true to say that the combination of vehicles, infantry, guns, explosives and equipment make for some truly one-off gaming experiences.

Like taking out a Viper Attack helicopter with a .50 cal sniper rifle!

(Well ok, the shot stunned him and he flew it into a building, but I still got credited with the kill!)

Pre-ordered it.

Sad that I won't get to fly an X-Wing in space but hey ho.... The rest just looks too awesome to say no!

I expect it to be a DLC after all both BF3 and 4 have just air wars.

I also imagine there will be server settings to lock it to FPS.

Cant wait

Frankly the worst thing about this game is it is being released close to Fallout 4.... Like buses good games....

Inside the atmosphere will have to do. I just had visions of launching from the ground and flying out into space to meet the Tie Fighters launching from Star Destroyers (which you could also attack).

Still, game is ordered, I will take what I can get.

Oh come on, that HUD is just hideous.

[Nom de ploom]

there seems to be a lot going on there, will frame rates etc be able to keep pace?

I don't like restrictive fields of view on racing games so always change in car to be Third person...would that be possible on these games too???

in cockpit feels claustrophobic...looks epic, don't get me wrong but looks very busy...

Has anything more cringey ever been said?

Looks brillaint to me. Cant wait for this one.

[Oakey]

It just seems so huge and out of proportion?
