There’s a lot to love in this remaster, but it feels like it needed more time in a Bacta tank
Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, which combines remastered versions of the first two Pandemic-developed games, is now out on consoles and PC. And while I’m enjoying the chance to replay this favorite of mine from yesteryear, bugs and other problems make it tricky to recommend in its current state.
Online issues and other problems in Battlefront Classic Collection Playing online right now isn’t a great experience. Lag and rubberbanding abound, and I’ve been kicked from servers or lost audio during matches online. I’ve also encountered a consistent bug in Battlefront II when playing online that sees the game’s performance get cut in half. This doesn’t happen in Battlefront. I’m not sure what’s going on there, but it makes the better sequel feel sluggish to play online against friends.
