10 Reasons You're Wrong About Star Wars: Battlefront 2

8. There's Real Engagement With The Community

One of the biggest issues facing multiplayer shooters in this day and age is whether or not they have the ability to retain their playerbase. First person shooters in particular often suffer from a massive decline in users after the first month or so, with the only notable exception in the last couple of years being Rainbow Six: Siege, which has somehow managed to achieve a steady level of growth since its own release in 2015.

As a result, studios endeavour more than ever before to engage with their community, first to ensure that people remain interested, and second to encourage a greater level of interest in their product. Responding to feedback and constantly implementing tweaks and updates is a great way of doing this, and it's a simple truth that DICE have retained a constant dialogue with their community throughout Battlefront II's most important periods of transition.

The original plan was to release additional content closer towards the beginning of 2018, but the decision to refocus the studio's efforts on implementing a new progression system forced a delay. This was all a result of community feedback, and with the new progression system being one heck of a lot better than the original, it's fair to say it was worth it.
