So is Jakku going to have spoilers for the movie?
i thought that was why it wasnt coming out at release

>tfw my old Phenom II can't really deal with battlefront
>100% cpu usage for 1-3 minutes at the beginning of every match
>then it drops to ~80% and stays there, smoothly at 60 FPS, until next round

I don't even know.

>>123112496
I doubt it.
At most it will be "this is sort of how the fight went"
I mean it's only a map.

>>123112496
Doubt it. It took place only a year after Endor so there's not much to spoil.

I recently upgraded from my Phenom II x4 which ran the beta pretty much without problems to a 6600k for which I had to drop the graphics to low to run it smoothly. The optimization they did is shit.

>>123113593
Did you have the cpu usage error?

It basically locks the game since every single cycle is busy, it runs at 60fps but all inputs become delayed and floaty, making me run in a circle aiming at random until it sorts itself out. Then I can play the rest of the match with zero issue.

Mine is an x4 as well.

Yo /swbg/, Arcradin420 here.

We have a Steam group going right now to help us get organized. When joining the group please provide your Origin name in the comments on the front page of the group so we can all add each other and play. I am currently adding everyone who posts their Origin name to my list as well. So far we have had many good battles in walker assault and other game types and I am looking forward to seeing more people with us. If there are any questions or anything I will be in the group chat 24/7 and will get to you when I am available.

Nah, I think the exp gain is pretty even all around and even if it wasnt, straight TDM is the most boring game mode possible.

First person or third person?

>>123115636
To be fair, DICE can't make a good campaign to save their lives.

Still want one though. Badly. The tutorial missions were actually fun as fuck, I did 3 star on all of them just because I enjoyed it.

>>123116627
third
you're gimping yourself if you can't see around corners, while I'm already prefiring before you even turn

>>123116627
First person for fun, third if you want to get a huge advantage.
Some stuff is fucked in third because of the shitty camera though, so be careful.

>>123116627

Depends on the situation.

For general wandering, third.

For trying to be precise first, for example if I spot someone from the top of the trees on endor it's typically easier to see and pick them off if I quickly switch to first

>tfw I thought only luke and vader were the only heroes worth playing
After playing heroes vs villians I truly see they are all great

>>123116558
You'd have to get something like 6k xp per round on average to make long Supremacy rounds or Walker Assault to compete with TDM for xp per hour. The bonuses are honestly too big for how short the rounds are. Sure there's no objective score but you'll usually kill that much more to compensate for the lack of it.

Not that I only play TDM. I usually do it when I get tired of other people losing me the game. Atleast in TDM I can carry my team by being a better shooter than 90% of the community.

Have they tweaked Hoth since the beta like little bitches? Imperials keep getting stomped

>>123119645
yeah, they made the first area a death pit for the empire

>>123118587

I usually average around 8k per round on supremacy. Only time I average around 5-6 is if im having a bad game or getting absolutely destroyed.

Heroes vs Villains is actually fun as hell

>>123121272

The only objectively shit mode is TDM. Its funny as fuck seeing people trying to camp, like git gud nigger

Its the worst mode because the airships arent balanced. Rebels win every time. Hell, its literally impossible to bring down the Millennium Falcon and he can simply shield and ram Slave I as soon as he shows up.

So you basically spend your entire time raping as rebels and then getting raped as empire from map to map.

>>123121721
You don't play fighter squadron to win, you play it to sit behind the hero vehicle and fire into their ass the whole match and rake in 5000 points per game.

No idea why they pick boba then go into tunnels. Vader and Sheev are just a ton better on Hoth than Boba because you can bully people off the point.

so much fucking justice I feel great

too much unbalanced cheese in this game though

balance patch when

>>123124609

But you just proved that its balanced since you beat his cheesy strat by simplying blowing him up. I think balance is fine in its current state. Only real annoying thing is the impact nade but its really limited in the fact that you cant bounce it at all and the blast radius is extremely fucking small.

Here's an idea: instead of the shitty partner system, make four man squads
Each squad has a leader, who is the only one that can be spawned on
Squad leaders get special markings/models to identify them
A squad menu is added so you can actually join into a squad and don't have to pray the game puts you in one

Cycler or pulse cannon? Is one better than the other?

>>123139412

Pulse requires the charge up but gets a kill with a full charge. Cycler requires a headshot for a 1 shot kill, otherwise it does like 90% of their life in damage, this means you can finish off anyone even remotely hurt or hit them with the cycler then shoot them one with your primary.

At least thats how it worked in the beta, no idea if it was changed at all but i doubt it was and having used the pulse cannon id say cycler over pulse every time. Only reason i havent used the cycler yet is because im still preferring nade+jet pack or homing rifle+ion rocket, but i should pick it back up because it causes a good amount of butthurt.

>>123139412
Cycler only one hit kills if it's a headshot. But it can pierce through energy shields so you can kill that guy that thinks he's safe

>>123142728

Thats youre opinion, i think pulse is trash.
Ion grenade is amazing and almost 1 hit kills ATSTs, it even sticks to them. Obviously it sucks that you need to be close though.
Flashbang requires you to have it pop close as fuck to whoever you want to blind otherwise its a minor annoyance, if it was stronger though it would be outright op.
Scout trait works at all ranks. People dont notice me running to them drom behind and ive literally had GROUPS of people not turn around when ive flanked them while having rank 2 scout. Ive outright been fucking ignored while clearly shooting people from behind with rank 2 but they will turn to face me at rank 1, you need to pull better flanks lad.

>>123143456
Some of those are more or less debatable but I will say that the rebels fighters are massively better than the imperial ones, the shields are so absurdly strong that you can allahu akbar other fighters and live to tell the tale and more or less take no damage.

>make second hand for use in Walker Assault
>it's always blank when the game starts

Why even include this if it doesn't work?

Is it any different from the battlefield games or just mediocre all around like normal? The game also looks dead considering nobody is talking about it on forums from what I have seen.

So if I want to use this fucking amazing shotgun, what's the best cards? I figure jetpack is a must, but what ranged weapon

>>123143689

Thats why i didnt dispute it. Rebel fighters are broken.

>>123144206

Make a 3rd preset. Dont delete the 2nd one just leave it blank. Then at the start of a new game for your 2nd hand switch to the third preset. This is a temp fix until its patched who knows when. Also it needs to be done every match because it defaults your 2nd hand to the 2nd preset, but again simply switch to the third

I'm getting real sick of seeing the DL-44

>>123144586

DL-44 is only real good in short range encounters and quickly loses its viability the further the range. Its a good gun and youll see it a lot in the small maps.

It gets beaten by the jawa shotgun though and honestly the jawa shotgun is the true king for those small maps, reminds me of the ol' spaz12 from mw2.

>>123112196
I'm insecure as fuck about my card loadouts. What do fellow anons reccomend? What card loadouts work for you?

After playing as "tunnel buddy" Boba I kinda wish they made 1313. He pretty fun to play, but he's way too OP because he has all bases covered in offensive capabilities. Hell, he's better than Vader.

>>123147829

After hitting a at-st from behind it did huge damage, so it must depend on where you hit it from

>>123148539
The ranged heroes are way better than the melee ones.

>>123148516
Impact Grenade + Thermal Det + Star Card of your choice is a fairly basic anti infantry setup. Works great in TDM and even bigger game modes especially in the bunkers that some of the maps have.

Shield + Jump pack is great for taking objectives.

Ion Shot + Ion Torpedo is awesome for Walker Assault as Rebels.

>try every weapon
>they all feel bad compared to the empire default

nothing beats the good old E-11

>>123149518
I remembe E-11 being fucking terrible in Battlegrounds 1 and 2 and Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy

The Republic default rifle was better

How do we balance Walker Assult? Becuase the rebels win on ever map. Tatooine and Sullust are really the only maps I see Imps win on, if they get lucky. Adding the weak spots really made the AT-ATs less tanky. Hoth can no longer be won since Imps get stupid spawns, and rebels can camp on the hill tops. Tatooine is sort of okay. Just needs a little team coordination. Same with Sullust, also turbo laser spam. And lastly Endor. It's completely fucked for Imps. I get that Endor should be rebel biased, but if they went the biased approach, then Hoth should be a cakewalk for Imps. Clearly this isn't the case, so Endor is bye far the most imbalanced map. First point is an easy high ground fight for rebels and an easy bunker fight. The second set of uplinks, if games reach that point, the AT-AT is most likely at 10 or so health, and the up links are way to easily defended. On point can be camped while the other is in an ewok village, which Imps can never get to. I don't even know how badly balanced the third set of up links are since games NEVER reach that point. It's seriously the second set that ends all games with that stupidly placed up link in the trees

Name something more satisfying than jumpacking towards a vehicle/turret and slam jamming an ion grenade onto it

Hoth was pretty well balanced in the beta. It was mostly a case of people not knowing how to play the game and towards the end of the beta Rebels started winning a lot more. It was possible to win it in the first phase if you dominated but most games would drag all the way to the 3rd. The biggest issue with it was the spawns and stupid placement of powerups which hasn't really changed. First spawn points were moved for both teams and they're still fucking retarded. Possibly even more so than they were in the beta. They should roll it back to the beta version and do less retarded tweaks from there.

Tatooine needs to be less of a flat corridor and maybe some spawn/powerup tweaks, I'd say it's the most balanced one however.

Sullust has a similar issue with it's corridorness but it takes it up a notch by making it great for a team who gets the points locked either way and digs in to defend them. The first and last set of objectives in particular are something that are almost impossible to overtake if the other team is prepared to defend. It has fairly good powerup placement.

Endor should maybe have only one objective per wave OR the speed at which Rebels get Y-wings should be cut to half. The problem with it is that it's all too easy to get 5-7 Y-wings in the first phase and that'll absolutely devastate the AT-AT. The trees make it rather impossible to shoot down Y-wings unlike the other maps. Afaik there's only one AT-ST at a time so bumping that to two might give imps a bit more of an edge. Spawn points could use some tweaking aswell.

In general the game mode needs the option to pick what spawn point you end at.

When starting out use nade+impact nade, especially for small map modes like blast, droppod, and cargo. The scan card is probably the best because its essentially a wallhack.

Once you get some levels though youll definitely want to use jetpack+whatever. Jetpack is honestly too good. If youre losing a fight simply jetpack away or use it to cross up people, this gives you a huge fucking advantage, by simply rushing them you pretty much gaurantee a kill. Have an anti-vehicle loadout that is ion nade+ion shot+ion rocket for when you are getting your shit pushed in by an at-st or air. I even ran homing rocket+ion rocket for a bit and just used them every time they cooled down. Homing rocket is almost a free kill and ion rocket works wonders against annoying air niggers.

One thing i will say though is to try them all out and different combinations too, once you figure out what you like make sure you upgrade that fucking card. Especially regular grenade, upgraded is huge.

Maybe someone pays for your hobbies, but I'm the one who pays for mine, so shelling out almost 1/3 of the total price of a console on a single multiplayer-only game with a serious lack of content is not something that I want to be doing in the future.

Well, imagine The Order, but instead of a lack luster SP campaign (that looks and sounds amazing), you have a lack luster MP experience (that looks and sounds amazing).

It's really unbelievable how little content this game shipped with. I'm talking maps, weapons, ships, heroes, all of that. BF 2 had not only OT content, but the fucking Clone Wars/Prequel stuff too, way more maps and ships and modes, extensive single player campaigns and a bunch of other shit, ON LAUNCH.

Asking the players to spend an extra FIFTY BUCKS on DLC, before the game was even released, is fucking retarded, and I can't believe people fall for this.

I also heard of people who were suddenly unable to play the game, weeks later.

So are the servers for this game absolute shit or am I getting matched over to US servers or something? In more than half of my games my shots just won't connect. Like if I'm carrying a T-21 and there's a guy standing in place and I scope down and aim at his head and shoot, it won't hit. BF3 and 4 had issues early on but nothing this bad.

>>123197713
No actually that was people buying the game with a Russian VPN.
And the reason for that was because of the Russian language pack thing that was included in their version which caused black screens on other system locales or something like that.

They made the heroes fun as fuck in this one to be honest. Much more fun than BF2. Heroes vs Villains is one of my favourite gamemodes in any shooter.

Luke and Vader need buffs, though.

The hero dialogue is amazing in this game, really. They've even got lines for when you mis; I was incredibly surprised when Fett said 'I must be getting sloppy' after I missed a couple of shots on the same target. Hell, I'm pretty sure there are lines for when you wound someone who gets away and then more lines for killing them later.

Yeah ive heard that. Lines that fett says is 'You'll pay for that' if hes getting shot and 'next one will kill you' if you get them close to death but not dead

My favorite line of his is when he says 'A job's a job' all casual like. That shit gets my dick hard as fuck.

>>123201930
Hopefully, starting out as a hero 6v6, then letting dead heroes roll as troopers would be ideal.

What heroes would you like to see? I'd like Ben, Chewbacca and Lando for rebs. Imps are harder, smaller cast, and some of the big bads like Tarkin don't really make much sense on the field of battle.

>>123204530

>Not having Tarkin calling out mini-hand sized star destroyers from his hands that shoot lasers at everything in the vicinity

But youre right. Imps have practically nobody compared to rebels. Maybe if they used 1-3 cast then the obvious Maul would be the one everyone wants.

So how do you do the godmode glitch?

It looks like some of the DLC will be Clone Wars stuff, which would make adding extra heroes into Heroes Vs. Villains a bit interesting.

>>123208236
The DL-44 is just objectively better. The EE-3 firing 3 bolts makes it way iffier to hit a full damage headshot than with any other rifle.

>>123208440

Except that the DL-44 is only really well in close range, from medium range it starts to suffer and long range you might as well try to cut the distance because the recoil per shot is extremely high.

Where as the EE-3 it shoots steady at long range, is ideal in medium and in close range it wont fail you unless obviously you miss a ton of shots. It shoots fast and is steady as fuck. Only downside is how fast it overheats, so you need to git gud with it to use it well.

So how long till the game is completely fucking dead on PC.

>>123208937
I don't get it. Is ps4 that starved for games? Shouldn't the xbone numbers be just as high?

>>123208753
I guess it's a playstyle issue. I prefer medium/close range combat and use cards for when I have to long range, so the DL-44 is one hell of a lot better whereas the EE-3 feels like one of the worst options.

Two very conflicting words, yet still ring true.

All kids will probably want to fly an X-wing just like the movie.

Say what you will about EA, but they definetely know how to make money the time calls for it.

So, on the topic of villains vs heroes. I guess you could divide them into three classes

Saber/Close range
Luke, Vader

Support/Middle range
Sheev, Leia

Harassment/Long range
Boba, Solo

General tactics I've seen used

>Camp like a fucking wuss
Have all three heroes bunch up near spawn and focus any stray heroes, Works a lot better for the heroes since Leia has the shield

>the support/close range combo
Sheev and vader are formidable, since Sheev does a lot of damage but is squishy and can't really defend himself well against luke.
Vader goes in while sheev provides lightning backup.
Luke and Leia works a lot worse, but with Leias stunlock it can also be a great tool to pick others. The stunlock is annoying as fuck, but that's another story.

>Agressive saber
Luke is especially suited to rushing down others, with his quick speed and his dash attack. Oftentimes you can catch Boba off guard by going to the typical high points he camps, like the roof on Tattooine. However you should go from the same side he came from to get the drop on him, if it doesn't kill him outright it often leaves him with low HP.

In my experience, this is how i would rank the use of the heroes.

Boba
Leia
Solo
Luke

Sounds like the guy who played it just sucked hard.

Don't tell me you read this clickbait shit-site.

>>123212089
I was bored and felt like it, yeah.

>>123212090
yup, all of them has a sprint button. But luke and sheev have attacks that functions as a dash.

Sad that i bought this game for PC.

I don't think the game will grow in popularity since everyone shits on it so hard, and PC gamers love having the same opinions as other PC gamers.

>>123207468

It's actually pretty damn good. It's my go-to gun.

Maybe you suck?

why the fuck don't Leia's guards have the sweet helmets from the Tantive IV??

Speaking of which, Tantive IV map when.

>>123212947
>Tantive IV
What game did you think you were paying for?

I have never played a shooter that makes me rage this much, but at the same time gives me certain moments of sheer awesomeness.

>>123174569

Decent points, but the reviewer gives the vibe off of "I am terrible at video games, why is everything not being handed to me on a silver platter?"

He whines the game caters too much to the movie rather than being a game, then in the first paragraph whines about how it's not enough like the movie.

He also says that Destiny has the exact same issues, but then goes on to praise it for those same issues...?

Otherwise the other points seemed to be pretty right.

>>123211016
Name a better game

>>123214256
Also, to add to this, the guy seems to be really surprised at the fact that he has to play the game to unlock weapons on perks, as if that's some absolutely crazy revolutionary nonsense system in 2015 that's never been seen before.

Good points, but the reviewer seems like a fucking idiot who finds even the most casual of games to be too difficult.

>>123214482
Witcher 3, MGSV. Fuck, even Fallout 4. It's not hard for a game to be better than this SWBF-minus-some-shit reboot.

>>123214482
There were a lot of better games that came out this year. I like this game for what it is, but it's missing too many features, and gets repetitive fast. I don't think it's 0/10 dead on arrival EA on suicide watch insert meme here, but like everyone else is saying, it's just mediocre.

It probably has some of the most impressive graphics I've ever seen though.

>>123214482
Bloodborne

That game was pretty awful.

Glad DkS3 is on PC again. There may be some cheaters but not even in DkS2 is it really that bad, 1 out of 30 people is a cheater maybe. It's not like you lose anything of value when you die anyway

I like it, Endor is particularly amazing. But I feel that it will probably be a dead game in about a month. Too bad. Maybe if they didn't shove so much DLC up our asses and actually fill the game with more content from the get go, it would have a longer shelf life.

I had a 360, and I still genuinely think it's better than a PS3. But then microshit went full on fucking retard. I have a PS4 now. But desu i still would have bought one even if microshaft didn't fuck up, because i think the PS4 can handle more in the long run.

For the love of God, someone make a map of all the collectibles in every fucking mission. This Hero battle on Tatooine is getting on my nerves. I found one of the fucking collectibles under the tail of the transport, but have spent 10 minutes looking for the other.

>>123215803
>But I feel that it will probably be a dead game in about a month

You mean when the new Star Wars movie comes out? Yep, will totally be dead, absolutely.

>>123217273

Fudge, totally forgot about that. Ok, two months then.

ACTUALLY, IT'S THE FOREST MOON OF ENDOR
THE PLANET ENDOR IS A GAS GIANT
NOT THE PLANET ENDOR

>>123217612
does the forest moon of endor have no name? is it literally just "the forest moon of endor"?

>>123217752
Yep, or "Sanctuary Moon"

>>123215803
It really sucks. I like the game, a lot. It feels right, the gunplay is a lot more fun than battlefield or similar titles due to the lack of ironsights and higher freedom of movement, but the fact that they sliced it up really hurt the content volume.

It's already dying on PC.

>>123209945

Because there are way better games to play on PC newb.

>>123217209
Went to a different site and found it. Fucking people, learn your front from your rear.

>>123214783
I was so underwhelmed by every game this year. I didnt even play FO4 past 40 hours and that has been my favorite up till now. This is the first game this year that ive been plesantly surprised by. I expected it to be so bad and they pulled off slightly better than mediocre which is still better than every other game this year with the exception of Dying Light

I think people just want to shit on the game because lack of SP, which honestly nobody will play anyway, and the season pass shit, but I mean besides jakku, nothing else is announced so its actual developed DLC, not just shit they cut out from the game. Though obviously I could be wrong and theyre waiting for until after the movie because spoilers.

Anyway, fuck Walker Assault. This is probably the worst game type besides tdm. Imperial spawns are so far behind the objective on EVERY map and its really retarded. I honstly dont know how you can lose as rebels unless youre with a group of morons.

>>123219097
I think it is worse if they didn't cut any content out to use as DLC.
To me that just means that this in the base game really was all they developed and still charged $60.

>>123219797

Besides lack of maps and SP, whats wrong with the game now?

>>123219797
Dice almost turned down the game because the timeline was so short.

>>123217351
One month after christmas?

>>123220083

4 Maps, 11 Weapons, No classes, Lack of Vehicles, No space battles, only 6 Heroes, Vehicles are pickups instead of physical objects you can get into, very light on customization etc.

>>123220083
It just got boring for me after a few matches. Doesn't give me too much incentive besides graphics to continuously come back to it. I plan on selling it back for whatever I can get back on Wednesday.

Gameplay is alright, solid enough to function, but nothing to talk about. I really should have waited in hindsight.

>>123220337

Nigga theres more than 4 maps. Weapons are fine. No classes is a design choice I agree on because that means everyone isnt a shit sniper or having a 10 second death timer so you wont get revived by medics. I dont know what kind of vehicles you want since this is obviously not clone war era. 6 heroes is fine since empire lacks heroes as it is and lando would just be another Han, same with Chewie. Vehicle pickups and all that shit is a design choice, doesnt mean more development time would have changed it. Cant really argue with customization. etc.

>>123220705

I meant to say only 4 planets. I'm cool with the map design mostly. Um pilotable Y wings and Tie bombers instead of them being an orbital. Obviously shit like B Wings and pilotable Shuttles. Probably Darth Vaders Tie Fighter and rebel Land Speeder couldn't hurt. Not having Lando, Chewie, Ig88, Bossk or Dengar feels more lazy than anything else. Pick ups are kind of a gross desing choice for me since part of Star Wars has always been hopping into a ship not summoning it with a little device. Customization turns me on.

This was awesome. Had a good game for the rst of the match too, crushing the rebellion with my T-21.

>>123220531

Yeah I'm returning it. Was fun for like a day. Missing way too much for me to see it as a completed game or having replay value. Might rebuy it after dlc or just wait for the sequel.

how the fuck do i get that collectible in the reactor on endor? i try to use boba to jet pack pver but he just falls through the supposed ledges.

>>123221172
Lando, IG88 and Dengar are shit tier tbqh.

>>123221172

>Ig88, Bossk or Dengar
>Literally whos

I mean seriously you saw them for what, maybe 5 fucking seconds? I had to google them to even know who the fuck you were talking about. Just because theyre bounty hunters doesnt mean 'eh lets make em heroes that NOBODY will pick since NOBODY knows about them unless they are a super hardcore fan'. Again, I dont like pickups, but I doubt having more development time would change anything as its pretty clear to be a 'artistic' choice. Only thing that does feel lazy is customization.

>>123220083

No space battles or galactic conquest. No campaign. Only a few weapons, vehicles, heroes and maps. Mostly meh game modes.

>>123221689

Empire uses alot of cool bounty hunters. If you don't know these characters you're a confirmed casual...which is fine but don't complain that the Empire doesn't have any interesting heroes.

>>123221619

Not wanting to include Lando and Chewie is just a bad opinion dude.

>>123221689
Wasn't Boba Fett a nobody too?
I remembering watching the original trilogy for the first time when I was 14 and afterwards wondering how someone with such little screentime got so famous.

>>123221689

Who cares about development time? The behind the scenes crap is for faggots. As a consumer I just want a good game. The pick ups and lack of customization is simply week. Not the original anon but more named characters wouldn't hurt this game at all.

>>123221721

Galatic conquest was meh though. Its only fun at the start and quickly gets boring. Space battles wouldnt be any different from the air mode we have already if they did it for this game.

Problem that people dont seem to get is that there isnt really a ton of weapons you see from the star wars universe, yet everyone complains about lack of weapons. Same with heroes, they would pretty much just be a skin of one another if they use a blaster. Maps is whatever, im fine with what we have now, more is obviously coming. I dont know what other game modes people would want since we have all the standard stuff.

>>123221689
What true star wars fan doesn't know about fucking IG-88. Like, seriously. Even that transoshan dude who took off his shoes to meet vader was kind of iconic.

They need to add way more races for customization too, I want the whole fucking cantina from A New Hope to be in there.

>>123221995

The difference between Fett and the other bounty hunters is that Fett was able to follow Han while you NEVER see the other bounty hunters he was with. Then obviously he was at Jabba's palace and then died, I dont know why he became a big deal but obviously after being put in clone wars it solidified him as a big name.

>>123222062

Galactic Conquest was fun. 64 v 64 human players on PC was god tier. Space battles would be different, simply have multiple capital ships and frigates and space to ground combat ala Rogue Squadron and it would be amazing. Lets not forget the franchise is called Star Wars...not including space shit is pretty sinful imo. More heroes wouldn't hurt and Chewie, Lando and a handful of bounty hunter characters like that another anon suggested would help. Blasters wouldn't have to all be the same. Dice just didn't make enough weapons. Bowcasters and Mortar type shit could easily be added.

>>123222152
>lets add like 100 customization options!
>literally everybody on the empire is a randomass person with a helmet, no ranking patterns or anything
>90% of everyone the rebels is also a generic human

>>123221689
>NOBODY knows about them unless they are a super hardcore fan

They're hardly obscure. Boba probably has one more minute of screentime in ESB than them.
