No Battlelog for Star Wars Battlefront
Contrary to previously mentioned rumors and reasonable speculation, Star Wars Battlefront will not feature a Battlelog. I can’t remember the last game from DICE that didn’t use the feature, but Jasper Nielen, the game’s AP, has confirmed it via a post on NeoGaf. In replying to a message, he stated that That article is based on the fact that the Uprise website mentions that Uprise is working on Star Wars Battlefront. While Uprise has been doing Battlelog, does that automatically mean that we will do Battlelog for Star Wars Battlefront? No, it won’t. That can only be an assumption, and I can tell you, no, there won’t be Battlelog for Star Wars Battlefront. The first gameplay will be revealed at 130PM eastern / 6PM U.K. today with a rumored release date of November 17th. This hasn’t been confirmed yet but it looks to be the case. We’ll let you know as we hear officially and be sure to check back for our coverage of the reveal this afternoon Thanks Gameranx
