Star Wars Battlefront II

Star Wars Battlefront II is a first/third person shooter taking place in the Star Wars Universe, and the fourth major release in the Battlefront series which began on the PC and sixth-generation consoles in 2004. Players are placed in either a team of Rebels or Imperials, in a variety of game modes such as team-deathmatch, defending control points, and a form of capture-the-flag, in a variety of environments based on settings from the Star Wars films. The game includes both a story-driven campaign, as well as online multiplayer.

Taking place between the events of the films Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, Commander Iden Versio who leads the Imperial Special Forces seeks out to avenge the Emperor following his death after the destruction of the Death Star. Though she and her comrades may find themselves on a path they hadn't expected.

Star Wars Battlefront II received widely mixed reviews with an average score of 68%, praised for its beautiful environments and graphics and multiplayer mode, though criticized for its weakened campaign story. The game was also heavily criticized for its initial micro-transactions surrounding loot boxes and unlocking heroes.

While the offline trophies are significantly easier than those on the previous installment, Star Wars Battlefront II is still just as time consuming, as you spend your time online and grind your way to Rank 50. The online trophies are arguably as challenging as those on the first game.

Expect anywhere between 60-100 hours, depending on your skills and some luck.

If you wish to get used to the game and controls, then a good place to start is the Campaign. This can be played on the easiest setting, if you like. Here, you'll earn a number of story-related trophies. In addition, there are a few simple trophies that can be unlocked at various points in the Campaign, such as using the droid to shock three enemies at once for the Dark Forces trophy, or eliminating five enemies using the barrage for the Balance Point trophy. These can either be obtained during your playthrough, or through a chapter select following the campaign. Check out the Star Wars Battlefront II trophy guide links under our Links tab for more details.

Following this, you can then complete the continued campaign through the Resurrection DLC, which is a free add-on to the story and includes three additional story-related trophies. Although these aren't necessary for the Platinum.

After, you can head into Arcade mode to mop-up the remaining offline trophies. Arcade is similar to the online multiplayer mode, only with bots. Here, you can unlock There Is No Such Thing As Luck simply for playing a game, and the Complete Your Training trophy for having played all the Battle Scenarios, which are 8 on the Light Side and 8 on the Dark Side.

Last, it's time to head into multiplayer and unlock the rest of the trophies. Your ultimate goal is to reach Rank 50 to obtain The Force Is Strong With This One trophy, which will take many, many hours of playing. Along this path, you'll want to focus on getting the miscellaneous trophies. These include winning each of the five online modes, getting kills with special weapons unique to the different playable classes, and others. Again, check out the Star Wars Battlefront II trophy guide links under our Links page to see what you need and their requirements.

May the Force be with you.

Star Wars Battlefront

Star Wars: Battlefront is a first/third person shooter taking place in the Star Wars Universe, and the third major release in the Battlefront series which began on the PC and sixth-generation consoles in 2004. Players are placed in either a team of Rebels or Imperials, in a variety of game modes such as deathmatch, team-deathmatch, defending control points, and a form of capture-the-flag. With a total of 16 maps, environments include those on the planets Hoth, Endor, Tatooine, Sullust, and Jakku.

Star Wars: Battlefront, though a commercial success, received mixed reviews with an average rating of 73%, praised for its presentation, realistic graphics, and for successfully immersing the player in the Star Wars Universe, but criticized for its lack of content upon release.

This is a high 3-star rating, though it really depends on your skills. The online trophies - to which there are 27 - can't really be boosted, so it's up to you to get good at the game and complete the necessary objectives. Some trophies can be quite difficult and frustrating, such as getting 25 trampled kills with the AT-ST, or defeating both the Millennium Falcon and Slave I, but with enough practice and patience, they can be done. Also, expect to put in a fair number of hours into the game as you make your way to reaching Rank 50.

Expect anywhere between 60-100 hours, depending on your skills and some luck.

This game doesn't require much of a roadmap, though we do recommend getting your feet wet by playing through some of the offline content before heading online. This includes all the tutorial missions - which will unlock the Do Or Do Not, There Is No Try trophy, as well as all the training, battle, and survival missions. There are a number of easy trophies you can earn here, such as for not taking damage in the Endor Chase mission for the Safety Ain't The Point Of A Joyride trophy, or for destroying 10 TIE fighters in 2 minutes on the Begger's Canyon mission for the Best Star Pilot In The Galaxy trophy.

Not all the offline trophies are easy, however. Those related to completing Survival missions on Master difficulty are extremely challenging on your own, and we recommend holding off until you have a partner to help you.

After that, it's time to head into Online play. Your ultimate goal is to reach Rank 50, which will take a very long time. As we mentioned, there is no real roadmap to success. Our advice, however, is to focus on one particular trophy and play only that mode until it's unlocked. So if you're going after the Hold The Line trophy, then just keep playing rounds of Supremacy until the trophy unlocks, before moving onto another trophy/mode. The more you play the same modes and maps, the more familiar you'll be and increase your chances of success. This is just our advice, however. Also, be sure to check out the trophy guides in our Links page to see what trophies you need and their requirements.

Eventually you will need to make some friends to help you earn the Together We Can Rule The Galaxy trophy, as well as assist you in completing the Survival missions on Master difficulty. check out the boosting forums in our Links page if you're struggling to get social.

Good luck, and May the Force Be With You!

Starbreeze To Focus On Multiplayer Games

Editorial Team

Starbreeze Studios, the Swedish developer behind such titles as Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and Payday, recently stated they will be focusing their efforts on co-op and multiplayer titles in the future, due to their longer monetizing lifespan than single-player games.

 

“You need to find the thing that makes it replayable,” stated Almir Listo, Global Brand Director at Starbreeze Studios speaking at the Reboot Develop conference. “One of the problems that Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons had for sure was that it’s not replayable. It’s a beautiful story, but it ends.”

 

“Payday, however, because the game is replayable like few other games…it allowed us to continue pushing out content for the game, which allowed us to keep monetizing the players who were interested in the game.”

 

Starbreeze is not completely out of the single-player game business however, though such titles may perhaps be sidelined to its publishing partners.

 

“We’re great at doing co-op games and multiplayer games. That’s why The Walking Dead game we’re making is a co-op game, that’s why the Crossfire game we’re making is a co-op game.”

 

It may not be unreasonable to consider that other developers perhaps share similar feelings with Starbreeze Studios, which could foresee a continual increase in the amount of online multiplayer, as we’ve witnessed with such titles as Star Wars Battlefront and the Uncharted series. For trophy hunters, this could mean more online Trophies to unlock.
