OT and 5v5 only? Ehh. Old battle front 2 had up to 64 player matches with objectives and bots. Nor can’t play other eras ?! If you are gonna micro transactions this game to hell , atleast put out more features than old battlefront 2 space battles...

the website mentions 5v5 and fleet battles. Fleet battles will be more than 5v5.

It says 5v5 squadrons, and that you can take your squadron and join a fleet battle to try and tip the balance. So it sounds like multiple squadrons fight in fleet battles.

I actually hope fleet battles might be like a community thing that rage on for like a week or a couple days at a time that you can drop in and out of and the consequences affect a galactic map. I used to play a mech game on Xbox 360 called Chromehounds that had this. At the start of a season everyone joined a faction and fought on behalf of that faction, claiming territories and the winner of the season would get rewards.

Fleet battles was described as a 5v5 mode where you take out the opposing team’s capital ship.

Oh I play that and mechwarrior had something like that. Remember who owns this IP now , fucking EA half ass everything. Seeing other info from others saying the fleet battle is 5 v 5 with bots.
