Star Wars Battlefront: 10 Things That Need To Happen

9. Distinctive Units

And what good is a choice in perspective if everyone is all playing the same character? Star Wars Battlefront 2 boasts a healthy roster of diverse fighters. The game's four factions all feature your typical foot soldiers, snipers, demolitionists, and engineers, but also bring unique heavy and elite units like the Chain Commander and Shock Trooper to the battleground. That diversity is integral to the Battlefront experience, as it prevents large-scale conflicts from becoming a blur of dudes with guns. Without it, you'll just wind up with Battlefield: Star Wars Edition. Though it is built upon shooting-based gameplay, Star Wars Battlefront is not without its strategic influences. Choke points, command nodes, and spawn locations all affect your actions and ultimately decide the match victor. Every new unit is another variable for that formula, and for players, to keep up with so the more, the merrier.
