Battlefront 2 was the first game I played from beta to final update, it was a weird feeling playing the last update knowing there was no more. Glad it’s still doing well, especially with mods.
are there any mods that have classic conquest?
@@eddyeddyd No idea. There are some Instant Action mods. Instant Action Overhaul comes to mind.
@@Toad1K kthx, where do I get
@@eddyeddyd NexusNation. It's got loads of mods.
@@eddyeddyd mods are only available on pc, I get all my mods at nexus mods they are free and easy to insert to bf. I recommend watching a video on how to insert and download mods.
The team has undeniably made one of the greatest games I have ever seen and played, it still hurts me to watch such an amazing genre so close to my heart with so much potential killed by a delusional robbing company.
On god I took a year break I hopped on and I can’t stop trying to get that old master about 3000 in
Just to ask are the characters in the video exist or are they mods thanks May the force be with u young padawans x
@@ashleyplowman7708 pretty sure they mods not 100% sure tho
@@ashleyplowman7708 they are mods yes
This may be one of the only games I have literally never become bored with… and I play on console!
How are servers population-wise?
@@davidquintero4575 I rarely have trouble finding a game! Unless it’s one of the less-popular modes, like playing as the Resistance or First Order in Supremacy.
@@astro.8888 Oh yeah, for sure. Definitely worth the re-download, such a fun, casual game to pop on every now and then.
@Sean ;]I’d say galactic assault and any coop plus heroes vs villains 4 v 4
Yea same here and it's the only game I've pre ordered. I never get bored with it
I'll never forgive them for cuttting support for Battlefront II. I had so much fun playing it.
I was playing battlefront 1 back then and I decided to try out the 2nd, despite is different in some ways, it's still enjoyable! You can have 40 man lobbies almost every day, where in the first there are almost none, and you can only find 12 man modes, another thing i like about is the way you get the weapons: you dont have to do specific things to get them: just get tons of kills with each class and you're done.
True, hutt contracts where not the greatest idea especially post 2015 support being ended and 2 coming out.
That being said I do love the large amount of base weapons and star cards in the first compared to the second game. For me Battlefront 2’s hero modes, reinforcements and ship combat all are better than 2015’s but the base “regular trooper” gameplay in battlefront 2 is lacking in fun. Not to mention as much as some of the modes in 2017 are great. Walker assault and Cargo are still missed by veterans of the 2015 game and where more fun as modes than anything in 2017 Battlefront 2 in my opinion.
@@locustboy8448 agreed, cargo is what you mostly play these days, and is a good game mode, too bad it's not in the sequel.
Agreed on that challenges part for sure man, I dont have any particular problem with doing actual weapon challenges if they’re fairly designed-but nothing beats making progress by straight up playing the game.
I play on Xbox so I don't have access to mods, but I still love playing it from time to time. The gameplay especially in large modes is just really immersive and fun. I don't play video games often, so this one of the few games I do play.
I wish they at least updated it for the next gen consoles but I agree with ya !
@@11bmxvids still amazing on pc the graphics are still AAA just need to upgrade you're console...
@@budman8926 I got the series x it can run up to 120fps @4k if I wanted , but this specific game is still last gen , the game doesn’t support 4k and still runs at 30fps. My consoles just fine !
@@budman8926 how did you deal with losing your progress it was literally my favorite game to play and now that I’m on pc I don’t wanna start over but I’m kinda interested in the mods. Do you know if I install it from pc game pass could I mod it
I had no idea the modding scene has come so far! I thought it was just stuck on making janky custom heroes like Captain Rex.I’m legitimately so blown away by this all I’m gonna have to download this stuff immediately.
If you get bored with instant action, try removing the hud. It makes lining blaster shots really hard and unique. It's like it's own mini game trying to aim blaster bolts without any sight system.
You’re the type of teammates I be getting in my games that go 3-42 😭
@@warxawesome damn you got me lol
@@warxawesome xD
I just wanna throw in my 2 cents and say if it gets too competitive, I really enjoy this on co-op, especially due to the (relatively) era-accurate AI cosmetics/classes.
It is significantly easier than a regular lobby, but for me it’s honestly a plus. Why become an elite or try to immerse in battle just to get sweated on by a level 850 Solo flying around?
One time I had my hud off and got a really immersive Naboo Defensive with 3 randoms dressed as the 501st hahaha
The game will always have players because it is a star wars theme game
These modded servers are definitely a lot of fun. It just needs more people. Kyber definitely has great potential for BF2 on PC. My little cameo as Captain Rex 0:33 :)
Man this stream was an absolute blast! Even if I wasn't doing the greatest lol, this games modding community has turned the game around and the new characters/weapons make it feel like a whole new game update at times, I just can't wait for future updates to the battlefront+ mod, as well as the upcoming maps that are supposedly in the works!.
Loved this game enough that I learned how to dive into its code and mod it myself. No other game has ever gave me that inspiration
It made me want to create a BF3 but I don't think I could conjure up a masterpiece like supremacy clone era - I literally have to drag myself off that every time I play it's so addictive aha
I absolutely love hopping on BF2 now and again. The clone wars capitol supremacy is really immersive and fun
I just got done playing supremecy on geneosis. That one match went on for an hr and a half. Love it
fire emblem engage is so much a better game. why? no toxics pricks
@@thatguy_butters4743 because of toxic loosers thats why star wars will be deleted and never be touched again
I played a CW supremacy that lasted 4h 32min
Best part about Naboo you get the starfighter
I never quit playing this game until 2021.
I never abandoned this game while it was getting so much hate, while everyone (including my friends) bashed this game. I had hope, and it payed off. This game is the best Star Wars game IMO. I played it everyday, and now I miss it so much

The game is definitely thriving but if your playing Heroes vs Villains it's usually filled with one team who has players from day 1 and the other team with brand new players which is very annoying as most games are just watching 2 of your teammates taking out an entire team.
Knowing that Battlefront 2 and Battlefield 5 were cancelled for BF2042 is so depressing. That game is getting better and I don't think that they will give up on it (learing from the mistake of their previous 2 cancellations) but it's such a bittersweet feeling that BF2042 gets to live but two much better games don't.
Imagine what we content we’d be getting if support was still on for this game
Me on Console: 😪
Same here
I still enjoy this game so much and watching you play. I play on XBox, but it still doesn't get boring for me, though I wish I could get the mods. I have a MacBook laptop, no PC, unfortunately. Best game, ever!
Still love thisd game after so long! Great vid!
The graphics look modern too, they still hold up very well
I just started playing today and I love it! I wish dice n EA would bring support back to the game
On console the player base is starting to come back for whatever reason. I find more and more new players all the time.
I hope this game lasts for a while
I am coming back👍😀👍
It's been three years since the last update?! Time really has flown by.
Nothing beats getting steamrolled in Supremacy, holding the enemy back from your ships generators, going back to the ground and steamrolling them and then destroying their capital ship... It's awesome!
Me and my friends have had so much fun on kyber and using mods. It is the best thing that could have happened to BF2 after it's cancellation
Dice: We will no longer be updating the game.
The Community: Fine, I'll do it myself.
the story of this game is a great example of how publishers and game studios often have no idea what people want or how to make money. Like seriously there was a win win situation here for investors and gamers but both lost out due to incompetence
Man this is one of the few games that make me want to get a gaming PC
Must play this again. I still have it installed. Atm I’m playing god of war and then I’ll probably play survivor
Damn..
This game needed that Battlefield 3 or 4 feel for sure.
Destructible buildings
Vehicles
Transports
Such sad news..
i miss the old days where we still got updates. i realy need to try the mods
If they make a new Battlefront game I honestly don't know how they could improve on this. It's perfect.
Shoutout to the battle droid homie at 3:01 who decided to end it all rather than be killed by a clone
One of the most immersive and fun shooters I have ever played. The gunplay is unreal and playing as clones is a blas!
“The game is still thriving”
Me waiting in a galactic assault/capital supremacy lobby for an hour straight: 😐
Is there a server you recommend? Everytime I check Kyber for publics, their all empty
Speaking for mostly myself personally, but I'd love to see that hour of all the blasters, abilities or what not mentioned at 5:20.
I have been playing this game for the past 4 years and it has been so fun. It makes me sad how much potential this game had
I was playing at 1 Am and there was still people playing from different time zones.
It really is a fun game. Very underrated, and pretty friendly community, as well. People that hated it from the start are really missing out..
Well think about it. First impressions are really important. A lot of people arent going to play it if its not good at launch(every game should be good at lauch btw). They are not going to wait til it gets good after a year. Yeah fair enough they had a good comeback but thats no excuse for it having a terrible launch.
@@jackbates2223 yup. Thought about it. Still love it.
@@TimTheHermit Not saying youre wrong im just saying a lot of people wont go back.
@Jack Bates yuppers. And either way EA got their money 😆
People loved the gameplay at release. Even the beta was great. People hated the monetization/micro transactions for unlocks
Incredible that they cut support for this game to give us the less than half baked 2042
I'm still hoping for a mod that lets us play different eras on all maps. That still feels like the last big feature from the old games missing.
instant action overhaul has that now!
I miss this game, might buy it again
what’s up elliott been a fan since day one keep up the good work!!
Thanks! :)
What rly is impressive here is the fact that even tough the Game is dead ( 0 Support ) but the Overall ( Xbox/PS/PC ) Player Base is Not. This is veeery unusual for a Game which is Not supported at all any more. All i can say as a Gamer and consumer is that i hate EA
I got battlefront 2 on epic games when it was free but have only now played it. It is definitely quite enjoyable
Battlefront is great but to me the Galactic Contention mod for Squad is everything star wars games should be. Its a shame its broken right now but its getting fixed real soon
Remember that you can always switch battlefront 2 servers from the settings menu in game on console. Made finding matches actually possible as Australian servers are dead.
I'm still playing this on console all this time. Fair warning though. If you fell off, and you come back, it's a sweat fest
the thing with battlefront 2 is that it's fun for a month or two and then you just don't play it anymore for a while, but once you come back it just hooks you again
Glad to hear the game is thriving where you live, unfortunately it’s so dead in aus, gotta play Japanese servers to have any hope of getting into any matches, and you only find them via the quick match button, which most times just puts you in co op or a nearly empty GA lobby
What ping do you have on us servers? in battlefield for example
@@Renekor I’m not sure if you mean battlefront or battlefield there but on battlefront it can be nearly unplayable, I’d assume to the high player count in matches, lots of rubber banding and unresponse. I’ve played some battlefield 1 and cause of the custom servers have not had to switch regions.
Star Wars Battlefront II is a great multiplayer game for those who have played and are experienced with Battlefield 5 or 1 games. It even runs better on the same computer than those games and demands less than them. It is in many ways similar to them and is in this way familiar for the players of the Battlefield series, and the content is excellent. There are air combat units and vehicles in a similar way, and there are players even today. This, among other things about this, is important to know for anyone who is interested.
3:02 lol
Tried on and off to play this game over the years and it’s still pretty terrible in my opinion. Some people like it but here’s how every match goes:
HvV: You WILL go up against a team of high level players or low level players 8/10 matches. A 4v4 quickly becomes 4v3 and so on the second a team is down by 5 or so. I honestly can’t blame them because you’re either up against a mostly max team or players who are new. Both leave when they lose and very rarely are matches close.
Supremacy: Matches can be fun, but usually games last for 45min or so and it’s actually not that fun when the game is fair and teams are equal. You’ll usually leave at this point and didn’t really feel like you accomplished anything.
Hero Showdown: You WILL fight Max players who BREATHE this game and you WILL wait if the team becomes unbalanced even though it should just let you 1v1 a random member of the other team then refill your health for fighting the other guy if you win.
GA: You WILL be put on a losing team unless the game feels charitable. Usually this is because that team is getting steamrolled and spots open up. Want to take out Walkers of any kind? Well your team better be good because that WILL rarely happen from my experience on both sides.
The clones WILL win on Geonosis unless half of the team runs a Heavy.
P.S. - The “WILL” is like the games rules. These events will essentially happen to anyone who plays the game so they may as well come up on the tips screen.
Can confirm, you can only play coop and the occasional HvV game from New zealand and Australia, longest i waited in an empty lobby for a match of galactic assault was like 45 minutes or so. like one or two people out of the needed 20 will join, and then leave. you can however get lucky with a quick game and land a full Galactic assault lobby, but dont be surprised if it matchmakes you into another empty lobby post match
I've been playing the game since day of release...& currently it's not in a good state online...almost at times unplayable(issues I've noticed):
Assault class: Toughen up doesn't work, especially in GA & Surpemacy(where it seems it has the adverse effect of you dying in 1 hit).
Specialist: Infiltration doesn't work all the time( highlights your team & enemy heroes but not enemy troopers) & I'm not convinced your invisible on radar as intended.
Sith Trooper: Recently noticed Seeker ability not working in games of GA & Surpemacy.
Light Sabre Heroes: Feels at times that your not hitting opponents & passing through them, also abilities work in some matches & not in others.
There are also other issues & I know most of these are probably server issues with the player base getting smaller.( Games when feel I'm clearly doing no damage) & I do have decent Internet connection.
It's getting frustrating, I'm quitting more games then I've ever been ( Surpemacy for me is practically unplayable).
I'm also highly suspicious of the Level cap system.
It's still one of the best Star Wars games...just not in good shape at the moment.
On the Playstation Servers, it's active on weekends but it takes longer on weekdays. I rarely find players in the nonmainstream game modes like the Ewok One or Hero One. Almost everyone on PlayStation only plays clone wars stuff.
Online sucks on PC you get hackers that make everyone immortal so no one dies, thus no stakes in the battle.
Ah yes making rocket propelled grenades love it.
only 1 single person on Kyber servers :(
I still play every day. Hope someone is developing a similar game for Lucasfilm right now... imagine all the amazing new characters that could be added Dx
very interesting really cool seeing more of the mods in more detail but the thing is for me on console if I'm lucky there are rarely hero showdown heroes vs villains and usually co op so it's pretty dead for me but I still play it I don't even know why
2:47 yeah in the aus/nz servers its quite dead and takes ages to find any games
i hope we get some bf3 news sooner rather than later
Few people on kayber server
Hello There 👋
I just started playing it and I really like the game.
Never get tired of this game, with mods it just keeps lasting
I lost almost all my skins and progress because of a cloud problem... That realy makes me sad.
Would love to see those mods on console. Like having a re-release of bf2 with the best mods of the community. I would pay for it if we don't get any new battlefront games for a while.
Skyrim Anniversary edition is like that where you can play with mods of PS4 and Xbox. So there's a precedent for that
I need to get my gaming pc back up and running and hop on this fun.
I can’t stop playing!
Idk why but i cant find a single match in supremacy and galactic assault in 2023
i miss this game so much
Thank you. This was exactly what I was looking for
Is the lobbies on the PS4, does anyone know? Went to go play, well the kids had other plans for the disk. Gamestop has it for $10. Game still alive on that platform? Or mostly PC?
Might have to grab this for my pc been meaning to for a while just haven’t gotten around to it
As long as this game lives, apathy will always control you. Apathy is death. Never forget it.
For its age this games graphics still hold up really well
It's the biggest shame ever that this game prioritized Profit instead of Community. The absolute GOLDMINE of Content updates they could have added based on the endless spinoff Disney Created for the Star Wars Universe could have made this game as good as the OG Battlefront 2(005)
Lobby's are weird for
Me like right now none what so ever outside of co op but then other times instant match making
Is it good idea to start playing now?
And btw, are there Space battles? (Ships)
Yes it is, considering how cheap it is :) and yes there's space battles!
@@BattlefrontUpdates Thanks, this game is freaking awesome! Already lvl 7 on assault, my favorite unit for now
On console it sucks. I’m always matched against a coordinated team and my teammates are just standing around watching me get 4v1.
Still playing it every week with my friends
I think I missed alot i never seen those characters battlefront2 and um still playing it
I have been playing DICE’s Star Wars BF since 2015 when the OG came out, I was more hyped about the first & put just as if not more time in that game compared to BF2 and how long I owned each game.
I have had BF2 since launch now and yes the devs and EA in 2017 were at peak micro transactions & pay to win idea and that ruined any fun for me. That being said, in 2023 the game has held up tremendously and even though half on PS5 of the player count are bots the modes on weekends are queued instantly . I love the game and BF2 took to long to get the updates it desperately needed but once it did it became an amazing multiplayer Star Wars game.
The game modes, the (eventual) solid Jedi & Sith roster they added from 2017-2020; although Mace Windu & Qui-Gon Jinn or even the really small stuff like after BF1’s release in 2015 everyone was screaming on Reddit to include the OG Ben Kenobi skin or Luke’s Starfighter pilot skin like from the old-school BF on PlayStation 2.
If they ever decide to make a BF3 they would have so much to expand on and if they use a modified version of the Motive or Criterion engine & keep the variety of modes/eras/skins for the molding of BF3, it would sell amazing. EA would have hopefully learned that it’s much better to wait for a game that’s truly finished so if they launched BF3 EA wouldn’t have to worry about the negative comments from the community about how the game was empty or broken.
If they fixed the SSR this gsme would be the best looking game ever made and runs like a champ.
Still disappointed like most that we didn’t get Mace and Ashoka and Thrawn and General Veers and Dengar, but Kyber saved it big time.
Hello There!
But still modders no create Padme for Battlefront Plus :(
Revive this game people I hardly can find supremacy lobbies so dumb:(
guys...should i buy it? and if yes should i buy the normal version or another edition infact i never played/tried it before?
Respawn put out a job thingy for somebody with Multiplayer and Star Wars experience.
8 bucks on PSN... fun as hell. reminds me of the original BF2 i used to play in high school.
3:02 yeet
What's really incredible...is that I got BF2 Celebration Edition for just $10.00! I generally don't go for games made from movies(one exception being James Bond)...because it's usually just a money grab & such games tend to be poorly made. However...this game is very impressive & tons of fun! It feels like a film sequel, but interactive and beautifully executed.
This game had me wrapped around a chokehold when it came out
Just got it today pretty good game
I can only find empty servers on the ps4… am I doing something wrong? Where is the thriving?
