Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection’s Launch Isn’t Going Smoothly
Star Wars Battlefront: Classic Collection is now available for purchase, but Aspyr’s compilation of the two multiplayer games from long (long!) ago has been criticized for launching with multiplayer issues and bugs. On Steam, various reviews from users claim the game is almost unplayable in its present state.
Users claim the game initially launched with only three 64-player servers for the thousands of people who purchased the game on PC and console. Aspyr did increase server capacity, but this only served to highlight other glaring issues in the Battlefront collection.
“Was only able to join one Heroes vs. Villains match and the Hero’s side was completely broken,” Kamaji wrote in a Steam user review. “No one could join the Hero’s team which resulted in no one to fight against. I figured this may have been just a Battlefront 2 issue so I hopped on over to play Battlefront 1 multiplayer. There [are] zero servers up for Battlefront F1. Wow.”
