The launch of the Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection has been marred by significant server issues, leaving players frustrated and disappointed. Developer Aspyr, known for its work on potential remakes like KOTOR, has released a statement addressing the ongoing problems with the collection.
Despite efforts to resolve server issues, players continue to encounter various technical issues such as sound and framerate problems, missing content, poor aim assist, and inverted flight control options. The initial server capacity was reportedly insufficient, leading to a subpar gaming experience for many.
Response from fans on social media has been overwhelmingly negative, with numerous comments expressing dissatisfaction with the quality of the release. The lack of acknowledgment for non-server related complaints has further fueled player frustration.
Following the troubled launch, player numbers have dwindled, with a significant drop in active users and a surge in refund requests. The game's Steam reviews reflect the discontent, with only 20% positive ratings, making it one of the lowest-rated releases in Steam history.
While early previews and reviews of the game were relatively positive, the actual player experience has fallen short of expectations. Aspyr faces the challenge of restoring player confidence and addressing the broader issues plaguing the Battlefront Collection.
It remains uncertain whether Aspyr will be able to rectify the underlying issues beyond server problems, raising doubts about the future of the collection. Players are eagerly awaiting updates and improvements to enhance their gaming experience.
Despite the current setbacks, there is still hope for a potential turnaround, but the timeline for resolving the collection's issues remains unclear. As players await further developments, the fate of the Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection hangs in the balance.
