Who is playing Star Wars: Sqaudrons since Shadowlands is delayed?

Anyone else playing it since Shadowlands is delayed?

I’ve been waiting for another game like this since the 90s. Shame there’s no b-wing

I played through the single player campaign. Not bad, not good. Story was fairly generic and short, but it provided a good overview of the mechanics.

Gameplay was interesting but clearly designed with multiplayer in mind - i.e they ‘balanced’ imperial and republic ships. Which leads to elements like tie fighters being capable of taking multiple missile hits but having all the manoeuvrability of a flying brick, which isn’t great. On the other hand, getting the old energy and shield balancing controls back (once I played around with the gameplay settings) was great.

I’m having trouble mustering the interest for multiplayer at this point though - the game design wasn’t really enough to grab me for multiple repeat fleet battles.

I returned it. The multiplayer is frankly bs if you are Empire. The A wing is far too good and needs a nerf. It’s too easy to crash into things and there are only like 4 ships for each side and 6 maps, only dogfight and fleet battle? Thats it? Fleet battle also plays like a MOBA with constant back and forth. BORING. Its not worth even 40 bucks to me at the moment. The game has potential but as is? Not worthy of Star Wars imo. Rather see if Cyberpunk 2077 and BG 3 are good.
