So, I've spent this past weekend in a state of giddy euphoria over Star Wars Battlefront II's open beta, only to have my hopes crushed upon further inspection.
I put it down to a beta bug, but I noticed that classes that I hadn't even played were higher level than the ones that I had been playing. I figured this must be a display issue, or progression registering incorrectly, alas no. It's a by-product of what could be the most aggressive, pay-to-win micropayment strategy ever seen in a modern, premium-priced competitive shooter.
DICE, please rethink this (or give us clarification).
