No Microtransactions Or Multiplayer In Respawn's Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

No Microtransactions No Multiplayer ,Where do i preorder.

@jordanramee:

"So the opposite of Battlefront II." -- Hah.

Yet.

Respawn: No microtransactions

Disney/EA: "No one's ever really gone"

they don't need to put micros and shit in this game, think about it. respawn and ea have had differences in the past but ea know, respawn are talented and good at their job. so respawn get full creative freedom over making the star wars game, They want to make. whilst ea gets fat off Apex. 2 products, 1 farms wallets 1 hopefully rebuilds what little of their reputation that's left.

except, what I can't get past is, the one light of hope ea has, as a company is a god damn yawn wars game. I could care less. even though I am actually really excited to see what it is they've done, but as much as I like respawn I hate star wars.

There won't be mirco-transactions or multiplayer AT LAUNCH. EA will take a play out of Activision's playbook and add all those things AFTER the reviews have been published.

Lets face it there is NO WAY there wont be multiplayer in this game. EA stated Years ago they want all their games to be multiplayer or at least co-op. im not againt multiplayer but this is why they have FIFA, Battlefield etc. You want multiplayer go play those games. Bioware dont do those games they do single player experiences.

I wonder if Disney have told them that if they dont remove microtransactions completely, they will lose the licence? Its the only thing that makes sense since I dont believe EA would ever be that consumer friendly willingly.

It'll probably have base game, silver edition and gold edition though. And you'll be missing out by not buying the $120 gold edition with DLC and a statue and stickers and a pin and 3 songs from the soundtrack and a steelbook.

EA has a penchant for showing one thing and releasing something completely different than what was promised. I'm not holding my breath.

with all the shit ea has got lately they just needed to release one token game to appease disney and the raging boycotters.

if this game gets about 9/10 then boards will be full of "ea finally learned" and them those people will buy the next bunch of ea games even if they slowly get worse again

What I am confused by, and I am looking at the pre-order site on the Microsoft Store, right below the price and pre-order button, in small print it reads, "+ Offers in-app purchases".

So if it doesn't have transactions, what is this?

A pre-order gives us cosmetic items. That then makes one assume there are other cosmetic items to be had in the game title. Will those be sold? Isn't that then a micro-transaction?

To all the "It's EA so its bad" people this is the studio that made Titanfall 2 a few years ago which was very solid. If EA didn't make that game suck there's no reason to assume this will. Of course I'll wait to see gameplay first but I'm hopeful.

Ohhhhhhhhhh

Ahhhhhhhhhhh

Eeeeeeeeeeee

Oooooooooooo

Oh i'm sure they'll stuff it up somehow.

You know what else doesn't have micro transaction, and is also firing shots at such companies? Subverse, which is currently doing really hot on Kickstarter.

There is probably something though , its EA.

Too little, too late. Bring back my Bobba Fett game and we may talk.

At this point I believe Respawn. Reason because Disney and EA do not want another BFII controversial before the latest SW movie hits theater.

EA probably might sneak microtransactions into the game post-launch.

It seems weird EA'd dedicate a whole bunch of resources to a single player only game with no microtransactions. Those tend not to bring in nearly the dough stuff like FIFA does. Of course, I guess they've tried about everything else with Star Wars so far.

I think the game development industry on a whole suffers from bipolar disorder. Vince a few years back on Titanfall's lack of single player.

"WE MAKE THESE SINGLE-PLAYER MISSIONS THAT TAKE UP ALL THE FOCUS OF THE STUDIO, THAT TAKE A HUGE TEAM SIX MONTHS TO MAKE, AND PLAYERS RUN THROUGH IT IN EIGHT MINUTES. AND HOW MANY PEOPLE FINISH THE SINGLE-PLAYER GAME? IT’S A SMALL PERCENTAGE. IT’S LIKE, EVERYONE PLAYS THROUGH THE FIRST LEVEL, BUT 5% OF PEOPLE FINISH THE GAME."

Maybe EA has finally learned something? Was Patrick Soderlund leaving what they needed to finally start realizing that "games as a service" isn't the only design philosophy they should follow?

...dare I hope that we get a complete product at launch?

It's cool to hear the news from Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. What about DLC? But, I'm thinking about is the game going to be fully functioned (games have been released unfinished & game breaking bugs with it).

This is exciting, but not unsurprising news. EA has released bad game after bad game since Andromeda. Their reputation has been dragged through the mud, and they started sending out surveys that take over 30 minutes to complete, trying to figure out what gamers want. There were noticeably a lot of questions asking what gamers liked about The Witcher 3, RDR2, and asked about what games I was looking forward to.

I think EA might finally be realizing that no one wants to play hollow mmo games that are pay to win and have no semblance of community. I hope they don't ruin this game, and that EA learns to stop insulting the intelligence of their consumer base.

This isn't done out of kindness, EA rep is so horrible it's damaged the Starwars brand and Disney was not happy.

As with all things, it boils down to money, not some moral compass.

Damn...finally a worthy Star Wars game?

Would be the first EA game since years i would buy.

Eh, its EA. lets see and play the product first before you guys starts spouting marketing bullcraps
