* BreatherLevel: In Survival mode, the Ice Caves can easily be this. There are no [=AT-STs=], and the eponymous caves have several easy to defend areas. TIE Fighters won't be able to attack you while inside the caves, which make up most of the map, making it easy to leave them alone until you've taken out all the infantry. Lastly, unlike the Rebel Depot, the other map without [=AT-STs=], shadow troopers start appearing late game rather than early on.

** DICE announced [[http://starwars.ea.com/starwars/battlefront/news/start-of-your-star-wars-adventure more additional free content]] in addition to the free [[Film/TheForceAwakens Battle of Jakku DLC]], possibly as a result of backlash over the lack of content in the base game. Thus far, this has manifested in the form of new weapons and maps.
** In response to the negative reception of DLC heroes Nien Nunb and Greedo (who look like lazy {{Palette Swap}}s of existing character models), DICE released the Bespin DLC with fan-favorite heroes Lando and Dengar. Many fans were happy with this decision since they would at least play as beloved characters who at least look different than the existing ones playable in multiplayer.
** Hero Hunt was initially criticized for being a LuckBasedMission in which the next hero was chosen for who dealt the final blow to the incumbent hero. Eventually, it was changed to where the next hero was selected based on who dealt the most damage to the incumbent hero.
** Since the game's release, one of the most persistent criticisms of the game is the lack of offline content and games. In July 2016, EA announced at last an offline mode, "Skirmish", in which one can play offline co-op on Walker Assault and Fighter Squadron.
** Chewie was finally announced as the new DLC Hero for the Death Star DLC, as many fans were dumbfounded that he wasn't in the first DLC, if not the base game itself.
** One of the most contentious changes from the original game series was the removal of space battles. In the final two DLC's, variations of space battles were added in thanks to the "Battle Station" and "Infiltration" game modes.
** As the DLC Heroes began rolling in with Traits, fans grew annoyed that the original six lacked such traits. In the last days of the DLC season, the original six heroes gained their own traits at last.
** Many fans have complained about the game's almost slavish dedication to the Original Trilogy, wishing for Prequel Trilogy content. EA announced in summer 2016 that the final DLC pack would be based on ''Film/RogueOne'', which while still technically OT since it takes place just before ''A New Hope'', was still regarded as a good call and break from the OT focused content of the rest of the game before it.
** DICE has hinted that the sequel will include multiple eras and has confirmed that there will be a story campaign after the massive backlach due to the lack of offline content in the first game.

** Backlash against EA's involvement just got stronger when fans saw IGN's official review upon release. While IGN wasn't shy about criticizing the game, they gave it [[EightPointEight 8 out of 10]] and somehow avoided mentioning any of the removed content that upset so many fans (see InternetBackdraft below), essentially judging the game on its own without comparing it to previous ''Battlefront'' entries. Some say that EA earned their 8 stars with masterful graphics and fun gameplay, and that the game should be judged on its own merits. Others suspect that EA pressured IGN for a good review, and argue that the company had no excuse for cutting so much well-received content from previous games when they had such a high budget and charged players $60 per copy.

** Fans were excited for a new entry in the series.... until details were revealed. The removal of Space Battles upset a ''lot'' of fans, as did the announcement that the Clone Wars era, Galactic Conquest, and Instant Action would not appear at all. As well as the announcement that the AT-AT is on rails, and not pilot-able, along with battles being reduced to 24 person teams and the game only featuring four planets across its maps at launch. So it was half-WinTheCrowd half-Upset the Fans with Battlefront III. [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment And we'll leave it at that.]]
** In the spring of 2016, it was announced that [=EA=] was developing a ''Battlefront'' sequel. Early rumors of the title indicate that it would contain a larger selection of maps, space battles, a dedicated single-player campaign, and will include battles from ''The Force Awakens''. However, no mention was made of battles from the Prequel Trilogy, which greatly upset fans of those films. Prequel fans accused Disney and [=EA=] of trying to sweep the prequels under the rug and pretend they don't exist.

The former was accused watering down Battlefront and including a much-hated season pass as a means to sell as many units and milk as much money from fans. The latter was accused of [[ExecutiveMeddling placing creative restrictions]] for the sake of canonicity and [[ChristmasRushed rushing out the game]] to promote ''Film/TheForceAwakens''. Given how much of the production was not known, it may be possible that parties may have been MisBlamed for whatever faults.

** Many fans have complained about the game's almost slavish dedication to the Original Trilogy, wishing for Prequel content or at least ''[[WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels Rebels]]'' content. EA announced in summer 2016 that the final DLC pack would be based on ''Film/RogueOne'', which while still technically OT since it takes place just before ''A New Hope'', was still regarded as a good call and break from the OT focused content of the rest of the game before it.

** Likewise, the Emperor fighting exclusively with Force abilities instead of also using lightsabers like he did in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' and ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars''. This largely comes down to whether one thinks the Emperor comes across as more powerful with or without lightsabers.

* HypeBacklash: When the game was announced, many fans had high hopes given DICE's [[Franchise/{{Battlefield}} pedigree]] and commitment to the project (with many developers going so far as to visit the original filming sites to capture the environments perfectly). Yet several fans were disappointed with the initial game during launch week with general complaints leveled at the lack of depth and innovation. This was largely reflected in critical reviews with scores in the 6-8 range instead of the usual 8-9 range of DICE's other games. That said, DICE has begun creating more free content so it may be possible that the players will warm up as with ''Battlefield 4'' (which also was slammed at release yet won back the fanbase with gradual improvements).
