kinda feels like aspyr has politicians on their team instead of game devs, because all they do is promise stuff just to not deliver it
Politicians aren’t to be trusted
@@alexshaw7422 at least politicians can have bureaucracy to blame or reason...
They promised the force unleashed for switch
@@ghostraddical1981Didn't they actually deliver that one adequately? Tbh I actually had a favorable view of Aspyr because of all the games they brought to Switch. Then the Kotor II DLC debacle happened, then the Kotor Remake, and now this...
@@jacobg8640 KotOR II DLC? What?
Legit, after fixing bugs, they should hire modders to add official mods or at least some kinda browser and Steam Workshop. It would be great to be able to play Dark Times, Legacy, etc through the game itself, loading instances.
I'm tired of the excuses and being told we can't have what is easily doable. The legal reasons just don't make sense. It's time for a change, it's time for us to have mods on consoles. If the devs cannot give us what we want, we should resort to other means.
@Barrobroadcastmaster you can mod on console. Sure. But, you'd have to suffer the consequences since Nintendo, Xbox, and Playstation don't want modded consoles. The problem that I can think of is that this could potentially make people able to easily pirate games if they just allowed it to happen but I'm sure we don't know why exactly they don't want us to. I'd recommend getting a steam deck if you want the comfort of gaming on console with mods. I don't even have a steam deck but it's really the only option which sucks
@@thedarksaber It's possible to do it like they did with the CK on Skyrim/Fallout 4
They aren't going to do any of that since this would cost them money, which they didn't make very much of, especially on steam where everyone refunded the game.
@@Geth-vk Ark Survival Ascended does it too. It's possible but do you think they're going to basically put that much effort into it after they already put so little into it? They're updating the game now. Sure, but that's bux fixes and qol updates nothing like new content. They didn't even do crossplay
Thanks Andrew for trying the things we would never
Helping us financially by making us save our money! What a guy!
@@jimb.7523not all heroes wear capes some have youtube channels
If another developer ruins battlefront for the 4th time I’m coming for them.
Ayo, you're WHAT for them???
Lol u won't do anything. You will just buy the next star wars game they spew out and then u will keep complaining
If another developer ruins Battlefront for the 4th time i'm coming for them: 🛌📱
If they keep fucking up then I'm just going to keep making CZcams videos talking shit about developers that can never do their jobs right
Throwing your goddamn detpack in this game is a challenge of Madness
They put the missing cutscenes back into the 501st campaign... They play after the starting cutscenes play for a second time
You're kidding. It's like they refuse to do more than the bare minimum.
That was fixed with this 1st update it was a streamer mode issue apparently
this game is unsavable💀
They should just de-list this thing at this point.
They would delist the old ones before theyd ever delist this one lol
As I said when this game released - Ban Aspyr from creating remasters of any kind, forever. I stand by my opinion, forever.
It's a port, and they've made good Star Wars ports before. Why not give them a chance to make a better port? Is one bad port enough to damn a game dev company?
*PLOT TWIST:* Aspyr's Update 2 is going to be making the trooper armor and droids more shiny. That....That's it.
The sad thing is those networking/netcode problems will never be fixed, way to extensive of an undertaking for them to fix that now especially with players already abandoning this game. Only 1 server on PS5 is crazy. They had 1 job man, rip this game.
Man the battlefront series is such a cursed series. 19 years of practice and still can’t get it right ever since 2005!
Correction, 20 years. Battlefront 1 came out in 2004. 20 years, and yet perfection hasn't been reached!
Aspyr really gave us an early April fools joke
Man I’m starting to regret buying the game (Edit: Thanks for top comment guys!)
Started? The first release night made me angry
I refunded on day 1 lol
Refund it if you can
@@TheRealCatofsame
you playing on pc?
Thanks again for supporting BF2 Remaster Mod!
I have an Xbox One S...
I have the orginal Battlefront I (2004) and Battlefront II (2005) - with all the original Xbox exclusive DLCs and with the 2018 graphical enhancements when the games were made backwards compatible in the Xbox digital store. They run smoothly and NO BUGS, GLITCHES or ISSUES (and all cutscenes, award weapons and controller options are all there & the hit detection works FLAWLESSLY). Also both games are still in the Xbox digital store for under $10 US dollars each (and they both have much smaller file sizes as well).
I also pre-ordered the Battlefront Classic Collection (with the 2 discounts, early bird and pre-owner - which put the total cost for me just under $29 US dollars prior to release...I know, it was a big mistake to have bought it at all, which I regret and sadly Xbox doesn't issue refunds). We all know the collection was a dumpster fire upon release. It was not much fun to play on both online multiplayer & offline single player for consoles (in my case Xbox), with all the bugs, glitches and problems...Now the 1st patch/update (for Xbox) it did fix some things but a lot is still left unfixed unfortunately...PLUS with the patch/update it made even new bugs, new glitches and new other issues that weren't there before. WTH? Ughhhhhhh. It's still all dumpster fire in my opinion. 🔥😫🤦
My advice, just pick up the orginals instead. At least they still work very very well IMO. Peace ✌️
Yeah but the original online doesn’t work anymore 😕
Buy a PS5 cause PlayStation is much better, don't be an Xcuck.
Xbox is failing miserably & has been forever, it's a dying platform. Best thing they could do is make Xbox/PC hybrid.
@@suplexrex1526the classic collection online doesn’t even work either so there’s no difference really
You can get a refund but only within the first two weeks of purchase. And you have to have a low playtime on the game I believe.
@@Lil_ValorIt’s actually been much more playable for me since that first patch. What platofrom are you on? I’m on series x so maybe im just lucky idk. They still need to drop another patch regardless.
It’s sad that a lot of games coming out either have terrible plot, a heck ton of bugs, or just don’t work right/ deliver on what was promised 😔
I don't think this game is even available on PS4 i've looked everywhere 😒
@7:05, didn't notice that Supers could throw their rockets. LMAO what a joke
That’s always been a thing I’ve noticed even on the originals
They would have made more money with less investment if they just did a content update on current Battlefront II. two new maps for prequels and ot, some skins, maybe new weapons and sell it for 20.
BFII already has a player base that is still active and new content would have revived it even more.
it's called April Fools. They would need to do some serious work fixing the game, and then release it at either free or heavily discounted to get all of us who refunded to have any kind of good will again, if that's even possible. I've been loving playing '05 battlefront and ea battlefront 2 since refunding the classic collection.
Thank you for trying this for us Andrew. Its fair to say Aspyr fucked up. Im glad i refunded because im sick of the ship it out fix it later stuff.
Bro I could not stop laughing at the intro. How did they mess up so badly 😂
I'm playing on Switch...and After the update I think I lost my bonuses from Legendary Status...I have to actually re-earn them in each map now...
Not to mention I also have to reenter the invincibility cheat every time the map changes
You didn't lose them, it's a bug where you just don't initially spawn with them, but after getting them the first time, they're with you for the rest of the game.
They need to just add a cheat menu for both games where you can turn them on or off.
@@Jasonv65 Ehh. No. This are rewards given to the player for committing to their use, what they SHOULD do is fix the bug that prevents the people who have them unlocked from spawning with them.
Got No Problems in Switch
same thing happened to me on ps5, i was ok with this game because i jist do single player instant action but noe with legendary status even thats messed up.
This is really sad. I have no problems playing on my PS five it really sucks to see that other people cannot enjoy the game.
im assuming you never played the OG PC or OG Xbox versions both of them are currently better than the Classic Collection in every single way, its just sad that PS players are forced into this awful cashgrab
The random crashing on PS5 is really annoying
I haven't really had any issues with it on Xbox.. but it is so shitty how they did us with the games.
@@Austin2tall97i gave up on that game week one
Bro I have all of these problems on my PS5
The region locks are really destroying this game for people who want to play online especially outside the us
The Deceptive Marketing:
With the Star Wars Classic Collection, Aspyr lured fans in with promises of a revitalized gaming experience, reminiscent of the glory days of Star Wars gaming. But what did we get? we got a half-baked product filled with bugs and issues.
The Lack of Innovation:
As if the deception wasn't enough, Aspyr's Star Wars Classic Collection reeks of laziness and a lack of innovation. Instead of remastering these beloved titles with care and attention to detail, they simply slapped them onto modern platforms like a cheap carbon copy. Where's the love? Where's the dedication to preserving the magic of these games for a new generation of players? Nowhere to be found, buried beneath layers of mediocrity and indifference.
The Price Gouging:
Aspyr had the audacity to charge exorbitant prices for these relics of the past. Do they think we're fools? Do they believe we'll empty our wallets for a subpar gaming experience wrapped in nostalgia? Well, some might, but not me. I refuse to be swindled by corporate greed masquerading as a tribute to gaming history.
The Disregard for Fan Feedback:
To add insult to injury, Aspyr turns a deaf ear to the cries of the fans. Instead of addressing legitimate concerns and criticisms, they bury their heads in the sand, hoping that the Force will somehow magically fix everything. News flash: it won't. We, the players, deserve better. We deserve transparency, accountability, and respect. Aspyr has failed on all counts.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the Star Wars Classic Collection by Aspyr is nothing short of a scam. From deceptive marketing to lackluster execution, from price gouging to a blatant disregard for fan feedback, Aspyr has proven itself to be unworthy of the Star Wars legacy. It's time for gamers everywhere to rise up and demand better. We deserve games that honor the past while embracing the future, not shameless cash grabs dressed up as tributes to nostalgia. Aspyr, the Force is not with you.
Literally an essay bro
@@Aquacav I enjoy writing lol
calm down bro it's just a game the devs aren't out to get you
Bro wrote his life story lol
Literally complaining about ports never claimed to be remasters bro.
Marketed as ports. Claimed to be PORTS. Y'all need to get some serious reading comprehension.
Would be cool if Aspyr added reward weapons to every class after everything gets fixed up. Would love to play around with a Dark Trooper Assault Canon.
Well there's already reward weapons... Unless you mean they removed those ones. (Haven't played the port)
It would be nice to have an option to choose the weapons rather than being forced with the reward weapons, though
@@mar_speedman I meant new award weapons, something for EVERY classes main weapons.
@@megaman37456 I personally don't like the idea of changing old games like that. I prefer the gameplay to remain unchanged
Fun mod idea though
@@mar_speedman I don't really see how it's a bad idea when it's one of the few things the community of the original 2005 release have talked about wanting almost non-stop.
@@megaman37456 I'm not saying it's a bad idea, I'm just saying I prefer to preserve my games
Literally I’m praying when they fix all the issues they continue to support the game and of course add cross play remove the region lock maybe add some kind of friends list so you can join friends etc and who knows slowly add custom servers that allow consoles and PC to download mods / custom content
I'm glad I warned my friend about this game probably being shit before the game launched.
1:52 that's me next to our boy Andrew!! Hahah sick
Why was it soooo hard for them to just come out with a none buggy or messed up game like seriously 🙄😮💨
Hoping it goes on sale for May the 4th. Not worth $35.
best sound effects ever at the start
At this rate, I'm just waiting for a sale to get it cheap for the single player modes
same, although i wish they'd bring it on PS4
I’m honestly just Glad that you can get the Platinum Trophy offline. I used to play this game on my PS2 so I’m kinda used to playing this game offline only. I will admit I am kinda disappointed that I won’t be able to enjoy this game offline, but I at least have a chance to Platinum a game from my childhood, and that’s good enough for now. I do hope that Aspyr does fix this game and hopefully they could hire modders to help add more content
Can you really? Oh i soo want this on PS4 now.
@@RaikenXion you can, but there are 6 trophies that you will need to grind, and 2 out of those 6 are really boring to grind. I highly recommend getting “Unlock Remote Rocket Launcher” and “Unlock the vehicle Regen Bonus” first, so you get the 2 worst trophies out the way. The other 4 trophies you need to grind aren’t as bad as long as you take your time
@@davidcervantes7961 ok thanx for the heads up
PS4 here. I will say I’ve seen improvements since I downloaded that 1GB update (not a lot, but some). Of course, they also now sometimes stop showing rocket launches/ grenades being thrown
I'm from UK and i also still have my PS4, this game doesn't seem to be available on the PStore in my country. 🤔
Palpatine: THIS IS THE SAME CHASM!!
Haha love the robot chicken refrence my guy
Love the video Andrew
The thing that upsets me the most is that the marshal commander achievement won’t unlock for me. I’ve got every other achievement in the game but that one is broken. I really hope it’s fixed one day so I can 100% the game
Thanks for the update.
I absolutely played online on my PS2. Along with SOCOM II it was my first online gaming experience.
Lel, I remember back in high school having 200+ ping at a lan party on Halo CE, crazy how much that’s changed
Switch seems to be the only platform where the game is playable.
Probably most likely because Switch is old tech, so the coding can run it more easier.
I bought the GOG version of battlefront 2 a few years ago. Don’t need the classic collection because of that and it was waaaaaay less cost than the classic collection.
the sound effects tho that was a sick beat
I have all the medals at Legendary and my Awards weapons are completely broken. I also didn't get the Marshal Commander achievement. Hoping they fix all this soon.
How do you mean broken? I don't have the classic collection but if it works anything like the originals then after getting the medals to legendary status you need to get the award associated with the weapon once per round to have it for the rest of the match. Get the award and then simply swap to secondary then back to primary. If that's not happening for you then I Apologize for rambling haha.
Got a really nasty one. I was playing galactic conquest. I was using the hero bonus on utapau. I took control of the Jedi and the entire thing crashed. Freeze, green screen, and my entire ps5 turns off by itself and won’t turn on for a few minutes. I had a mini panic attack because I thought my system was bricked
Yeah, hearing about how the multiplayer is going, I haven’t tried out for myself yet. I’ve been playing the beloved Instant Action mode. Have to FULLY unlock the award rifle.
I’ve been playing Battlefront 2 (2004 Classic) and it’s been fun! Literally better servers and it’s sad.
This is where the fun begins! 🤣👀
how is the campaign, instant action and splitscreen stuff? thats all im really interested in
SAME!!!
I would love if they added more content. Please make that happen someone!
It’s honestly playing super good on Xbox One S I’ve been playing the past few days and it’s been solid and way better. I went from playing where I was getting a max of 15 kills because everything was so god awfully laggy but now I’ve been hitting 50-100 plus just using assault class because I can actually land my shots.
I thought about pre ordeing this before it came out, but i figured it was a good idea to wait. I had such high hopes for this to be good and ive been really hoping that the patches woulf fix things....i guess its not meant to be. It could have been such a success. Guess ill keep play bf 2017.
I don't know man, PS4 has been pretty solid so far after the update, and I have no issues finding rooms in multiplayer. Only issue I found was after death the camera spins fast, but that's it.
I’m still impressed at the fact Aspyr somehow, made a 20 year old PS2 game, require more space to download, that Elden Ring
The smart thing that I would do is look at the reviews first before buying.
26K views but yet still when I try to find a server no one is playing. How did this game generate so much buzz and then so many videos on it but no ones playing? I just want a server with 32-60 players on conquest :(
It’s because people played the game for a day and have now devoted themselves to trashing the game. It’s unfortunate that we have really only 1 playable lobby
I live in the United States the games are fine. The problem is since there wasnt any matchmaking added you pop into a game that ends in 2 minutes.
Unfortunately just like Asspyrs port of jedi academy, the community will most likely have to step in to fix things. The jedi academy community broke the port down and eventually added things like private servers and cross platform online between ps4/ps5 and switch. So some hope remains for this game.
Switch versions still great online most if the time so I have some hopes for this game, though not much, why cant they just copy paste the Switch's online stuff to other consoles. Then everyone is happy and Aspyr makes bank. Was it really that hard to do?
Is the online community popular for this game on the switch?
I will just keep playing it single player/ split screen. Just how I did back in the day. It’s still genuine fun, but the draw was multiplayer.. but I’ll be okay without it.
I wish when they re released games that they would actually upscale them and make them more modern but now
I’m lucky I haven’t experienced any of these issues. The only problem I am seeing is the hit registration problem.
Download the BFIII legacy mod and bf2 remastered and join the BFIII legacy servers. Theres an US and EU server.
That might be a hot take but i only had one issue playing online and that was this roller coaster camera the rest was normal for me
Andrew, if you don't mind, maybe this is a little experience, destroy everything like Ship, Venator or etc, in Star Wars Battlefront 2 Starfighter Solo Offline
Funny enough it just seems to be the official servers. Private patches with just 3 or 4 friends work great.
Question: do they still have the “lock-on” targeting feature on Ground Battles like they used to? I remember that feature giving an insane amount of aim assist on the lock-on target on the ground, and it was painful to try to hit anything without it on PS2 lol.
They obviously have a long way to go. At this point I’m just glad they unhid the missing controller options (specifically inverted Y option).
Idk if it’s bcs I’m on pc or that I’m in the U.S, but I haven’t really experienced any of these issues. Still it’s sad that everyone has left, the only ppl playing are the sweats
Lol yup i totally understand your feelings on this
And this is why I enjoy offline games or if it is online something that me and like the 2 or so people I play with anyway play something else (like Fortnite or OverWatch for example)
I played the Battlefront I from this Battlefront Classic Collection and the online seemed to be improved
The online is much better with the remaster compared to the PS2 online, although I don't think most of the people watching this were old enough to wrap their head around playing a PS2 online back in 2005.
0:16 That's not on Aspyr. It was like that on the PS2 version as well during online matches.
i cant be the only one who hasnt had ANY of these "issues". right?
I’ve legit still got a copy on Og Xbox that I can play on my modern console
I’ll stick with my one thanks
The game is $50 dollars in Canada bro. I can get Helldivers for that price.
Thanks for trying it and I might get hate but I enjoy it
Yeah, it’s fun if the connection is good
How do the single player/offline modes hold up?
From what people say the singleplayer and instant actions are all fine. I'd go so far as to say that just like in the original BF2 if you host the session you will have a much more stable connection that everyone else. It's just disappointing that that basically re-released these games with little to no changes made and marketed them like "It's the same games but with better multiplayer". If you're getting it for singleplayer i'd still recommend the originals since they are only a couple GB in storage where this is so much more. If you're getting it because it's the only release for the switch or your preferred console then that's understandable.
It sucks cuz me and my buddy wanted to play this but trying to play a game on the same team is like impossible
mind boggling to me that in 2024 that any game, let alone a star wars remaster of a ps2 game, could release so poorly. how many multiplayer games have been out since then? how did they not see this coming
Hah, not even an unplugged seatbelt (if even plugged in) would prepare you for that Utapau map glitch.
I'm thankful that I knew this released was going to be bad and kept the originals installed...
Bro I spent time grinding the awards to get the legendary weapons permanently, and before the update it was working fine. After the update, I no longer get those weapons.
another change they need is to not region lock many players so they can play on better servers
I just played a game on Xbox and I found quite a few servers but almost all entirely empty besides one with about 40 people. Lowest ping was that same server and it was around 50. Respawning was wacky, the 5 second timer would reset to 15 seconds if the person in watching waiting died lol. Idk how they screwed this game up as much as they did
Tbf connections in Australia are hit n miss in other games too
As someone with epilepsy I thank you.
The newest update added new bugs. The legendary status of achievements is no longer permanent like its supposed to be.
I play it every day!! Despite any problems, being able to actually do multiplayer is amazing!! and i love playing this!! even with all the problems, far more than cod
I got the 2005 version and it runs FLAWLESSLY
The 2004 original Battlefront 1 also runs FLAWLESSLY....and I'm playing on Xbox 😉🎮
@MLJ7956 I even mod it up. Now it looks good, sounds incredible. If only I could get ahold of the old kotor mod I played in high school. It would be perfect.
I was buzzing when this was announced, was such a huge part of my childhood. My PS4 is broke, so it was going to be an excuse to get myself a PS5. Glad I've resisted!
I dont understand how hard it is for devs to not screw up something like this
Viewers: man CZcams recs is boring
Star Wars Content: *Hello There!!!*
Bro it’s a ps2-xbox game, how is this even possible? Thats just wild
realistic reviews even played tested at popular times
Nintendo switch version is doing very good
It has been doing well since launch, it's so odd that the oldest current console runs it the best.
@cameronfulkerson7134 you don't need to lol I have played it on Switch
Yeah sure I'm going to buy a console that has like three good titles, two of them are Zelda games in one of them is a game that should be good on any console...
@@austinslaughter319 Still a better Library than the PS3
@@song6771 I don't know what's worse The fact that you think your console's good because you can compare it to a console that was f****** two generations ago, or the fact that the PS3 happened before the f****** original Wii, or the fact that you're incorrect. The entire library of the Nintendo switch, is 1/15th the library of the PS3 and 70% of the selection on the switch is on the PS3, of that 70% by the way the only actually makes up about 10% of what's on the PS3.
How to fix Battlefront Classic Collection:
Step 1: uninstall
step 2: purchase Battlefront II Classic
step 3: download Battlefront II Classic
step 4: install Battlefront II Remastered mod
step 5: Watch those wrist rockets!
Truth!
Im not sure if it's a lag or April fools prank but in battlefront 2 every enforcer cos 200 or 100
All good things must come to a end I guess
