Star Wars Battlefront: 10 Crucial Tips & Tricks You Need To Know
5. Find The Blaster That Best Suits You
Everyone is going to have their own play-style at the end of the day, and depending on what that is, you're going to want to choose the right weapon for the job. Whilst there aren't a multitude of blasters to choose from, the selection on offer is one diverse enough to enable players the opportunity to take on different roles in their team. There are heavy blasters, semi-automatic blasters, carbines and pistols to choose from, all with their own distinct merits and faults. So far gunplay is all reasonably balanced, but I have worryingly noticed that heavy blasters dominate shootouts all too frequently. Choosing the weapon that best speaks to you will not only benefit yourself but your whole team as well. There are decent all-round weapons that perform well in all situations, but those who are adept with specific weapon types will always help sway the tide of a battle in their team's favour.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
