Star Wars Battlefront II Multiplayer Will Have New Class System

With more characters and a single player campaign mode, you would think EA and DICE would focus their efforts on those rather than on the multiplayer mode. Instead they introduced a number of new features for the game that would make the game stronger in multiplayer mode since Star Wars Battlefront II started as a multiplayer game.

First and foremost is the new class system. Executive Producer Matt Webster said that the player will have four different classes to choose from instead of just one stormtrooper and that player can choose which class to play with whenever he/she respawns. Using the Star Cards in the game, each of the character and can modified with perks and abilities.

As to which class of characters are these, here they are: Assault Class is a medium range shooter; the Heavy is obviously, a heavy weapons trooper and less mobile; the Specialist Class does the sniping duties; and the the Officer Class is the medic/support character.  What players can look forward to is that skins and weapons from entire movie franchise will be made available for the players to choose from. As to which Class that players can best play with, it is really up to their preferences.

Wimpy, that is the word that players describe the weapons in Star Wars Battlefront. In Battlefront II, they are given much more oomph to satisfy the player when pressing the button to fire.

The multiplayer will still be the 20 vs 20 ground battles with the support vehicles and starfighters. We see more heroes which can be brought to battle through points gained during games instead of being unlocked using the in-game tokens scattered in the game map. In Battlefront 2, you can go into battle with bountry hunter Boba Fett; Captain Phasma which first appeared in The Force Awakens together with Finn, Kylo Ren, and Rey; and other characters from the rest of the movie franchise that you can use in the game now Han Solo, Darth Maul, Luke Skywalker, and Yoda.

Star Wars Battlefront II will be released on the 17th of November 2017 as the Star Wars marketing juggernaut revs up to full crescendo for the release of Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi for the Holiday Season.
