Nah. The license is strong. Evolve fell right through the floor. Battlefront's been holding pretty strong at $40 new when on sale and still hasn't had an MSRP drop.
I have a few games I wanted to try, but Gamefly is dropping the ball yet again with my membership. It's probably due to the fact that I'm using the $1 promo, too, but it's been six days since I dropped off my games at the post office and they only just shipped one out to me, meaning it likely won't be here for another three or four days - and it was one at the very bottom of my queue, as always (i.e. something I didn't really want). I've only been able to play two games at this point, neither of which were even in the top half of my queue, and my membership ends in nine days.
It probably has to do with where you live and where your distribution center is. I personally have had great service from Gamefly. For me, it is always a 3 day gap between the email that they shipped a game and me actually receiving it in the mail. Plus I drop off my returns at the post office where they do some sort of scanning so Gamefly sends me the next one right away, before they even physically receive my returned game. The only reason I've stopped using them (aside from these $1 promotions) is because of lack of games that I want to play. There isn't that much out there for this gen of consoles. Everyone keeps making lame digital titles that don't interest me at all. I want more high production value, AAA disc titles.
See, they actually used to do the scanning thing for me, but it doesn't seem like they ever do it that way any more. I used to see much faster turnarounds, but it's been consistently slow for the past three or four years. I don't know what changed.
Yes.
As much as like the multiplayer and the game as a whole, the single player offering is not worth $20. What you get are 5 training missions, a few Battle Missions versus AI opponents and and a few Survival Missions against AI. You can play split screen, which is nice, but not worth it on it's own. There's no campaign whatsoever.
ing trash.
The offline is really weak. Skip at any price if you won't be doing multiplayer. The MP isn't arcade casual, at least not when you're with competent people. Heroes vs Villains with a party is amaze-balls.
Not great. Battlefront II has an actual campaign mode and you can play offline multiplayer on BFII.
right now about 23,000 XB1 players, 30,000 PS4 players and 3,000 PC players according to the stats page. Looks to be about the same as BF4 on the consoles whereas BF4 has far more PC players at around 11,000.
Thanks for the information. I'll be playing online most of the time. I just wanted to make sure I could still play part of the game offline when my internet is down or really slow which has been happening a lot lately.
DICE community manager has said that the public stats are wrong, but EA won't allow them to disclose actual numbers. Fair to assume more people online than showing there.
I'm able to add both to my cart with the links above. Gamefly usually doesn't let you add to cart if they are sold out if I recall.
They never provide me with tracking info when/if I buy games from them but it usually takes about a week.
