Another day, another botched video game launch. A beloved classic franchise's reputation tarnished by corporate greed.

This 20 year old game is still better then these new 1's...

[@WitlessEntertainment]

It's not a remaster, it's a port with some enhancements.

[@MLJ7956]

By enhancements, I think you mean to say bugs, glitches and other play control issues....

[@WitlessEntertainment]

@@MLJ7956 i mean upscaled textures and resolution. Very basic. The bugs don't help

[@KazuhiraMiller46]

​@@WitlessEntertainment that's exactly what happened, I felt like I was going crazy. I was like where the hell is all this extra data coming from!?! ( textures... 😶)

[@WitlessEntertainment]

@@KazuhiraMiller46 and poorly optimized audio.

In Battlefront 2 apparently the "bugs" with the new update the Trooper Selection Menu being too far to the left and Legendary Awards not applying in Singleplayer are INTENDED CHANGES. Dude where do i even start if those changes ARE intended. I literally only cared about singleplayer and all they had to do was fix a command post on Naboo, Fix sounds, Fix the 501st Journal cutscenes, and fix Droideka camera movement on consoles. All fixes that literally could've been handled in a SINGLE PATCH yet only the first three of those issues were handled the last being still present and they ended up changing the game worse than how it was on launch.

[@Altjake97]

I still think the fact they changed the battlefront 1 loading sound effects, whether intended or not, is one of the biggest fumbles I had seen

[@jasperfox6821]

I'll stick to my original xbox thanks.

[@MLJ7956]

The original Battlefront I (2004) & Battlefront II (2005) still work great (and have all the original materials and DLCs) on Xbox...and the best part.... ZERO bugs, glitches and other issues....

[@smitty2065]

It’s a shame they can screw up a release for such a classic game. Hopefully they get everything fixed.

[@sirducksworthythe3rd842]

The gamevbeen playable from day one of classic collection, I've put several hours onto this collection, and it's well worth 35 bucks, and I'd gladly pay 60 bucks for a physical version

[@sirducksworthythe3rd842]

It s reputation wasn't corrupted, by greed, it was aspyrs stupid for marking a game collection that wasn't about online play as a online focus collection, online is the least important part of this collection , just like it ws the least un needed feature in 2005, online is not the point of these games but offline was and is still with this collection

[@eurodriven2507]

Wait, 240 subscribers? I thought I saw 240k at first... this is good stuff, keep it up, you deserve the "k" I thought I saw.

[@Altjake97]

Thank you, one day my friend 🙏🏻

[@KazuhiraMiller46]

This felt like the definitive gta release all over again

I'm not a dev nor programmer. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I though ports are not just simply "grab the old code and put it in a new machine". A game originally made for playstation 2 won't magically just run in the newest playstation. Same for windows versions. You'll have to patch good'ol 3d Pinball Space Cadet for it to work in windows 11. Even if devs fix it enough and made the game run in new hardware, the games would probably still be plagued with wonderful and novel bugs, all introduced by mismatched architecture and systems. What you see it's not the devs fucking it up, it's the nature of port development. And knowing corporate, this is probably the best they could do given the little time and manpower.

[@williampaabreeves]

problem is, they made the dumbass decision to use the PS2 version as the base. which was designed for the PS2s unique architecture. Rather than use the original xbox or PC version, built for x86 which is natively compatible on all consoles and PC except Switch. if they had used the original xbox version, all the dlc would be natively added already, we would have gotten 4 player splitscreen, network code that actually works for larger internet matches and more

[@theoamos2459]

It really sucks but probably not thedevelopers fault. Just upper manegement setting insane deadlines

[@denniss.mowers1639]

Honestly, I’ve been having a really good time with the game. Yeah, it had its glitches when it released which was unfortunate, but most of the problems have been ironed out (at least in my experience). It’s nice being able to play it on Switch after playing it on Xbox for 19 years.

[@jakepophal985]

Exactly I have it on switch. Because the last handheld version of this came out on the PSP and I was like seven so this is a dream for inner child me

[@Daniel-gm2iv]

Still better than ea online only front

[@ofal5124]

why there is a blue archive music in the background?

[@homerhat420]

Aspyre should be ashamed of themselves.

[@sirducksworthythe3rd842]

They are remastered by definition being upscaled assets of game and not by the actual console or tv

[@zmirko__9723]

guess i'll stick to playing the classic version on my xbox

[@trashaimgamer7822]

I legit wanted to get an Xbox just for the backwards compatibility but then a cheaper alternative presented itself. To bad cheaper is all it was...

[@ultamatejoker8282]

I don't really understand this company though. To do this to the most critically acclaimed Star Wars game will cause that company to not be trusted at all if they make another game that includes multiplayer. They didn't do this to a game with little notoriety, they did it to a game that was the best-selling Star Wars game in its original Xbox/Ps2 era on top of nearly having the highest online player base in that era. No one is going to trust them again. I think I may disagree with you not calling it the worst launch under the context that the only job Aspyr had was making an old game work and doing some minor tweaks.

[@ShmadenShmuki.]

I need 4 player split screen!

[@MLJ7956]

The originals on Xbox still have 4 player split screen on couch multiplayer....

[@masonmccarthy9057]

People are still milking outrage about this game? Get tf over it

[@juanjo2d]

The problem with "voting with your wallet" argument is that, while you're voting with your wallet, you are also competing with a shit ton of other wallets that are voting against you. And, sadly, the bigger wallet wins. They'll keep selling minimum viable products and people will still be paying for cash grabs.

I stick to bf3 legacy thank you

[@Altjake97]

Bf3 legacy is so amazing, it just makes me sad we never will get to play the official canceled bf3…

[@GodFaThEr09877]

Should change your title…. This isn’t a remaster, no one ever said that this was a remaster. Not even Aspyr said it was a remaster

[@philippczeskleba3988]

EA made a lot of money with this remaster, so they have no reason to change things, people will buy their crap anyway

[@justacell2208]

Pretty sure EA had nothing to do with this since this collection was made and published by aspyr

[@philippczeskleba3988]

@@justacell2208 yes, but it doesnt matter, people still buy this crap

[@justacell2208]

​@@philippczeskleba3988 yep, and there's no excuse for that.

[@brettapuss]

i refunded 61 minutes after launching it. Utter dog water of an experience. People are still defending it on the steam discussion and actually think "people are only playing the originals right now because they're trying to make a point" no people are playing the originals because the soul purpose for the classic collections existence was multiplayer! why would they even bother playing it for the single player when half of it's missing and all the upscaling and tweaks they did can be achieved on the originals for free via mods
