It actually RELIES on bots for decent gameplay.
All human players on a multi match don't actually work very well.
Also, getting into vehicles is a waste of time. Apparently the whole game just plays itself while I lazily fly around in a TIE fighter. You can't really shoot the ground forces when flying a tie fighter.. you end up crashing after 30 secs.
So you spend your time shooting the enemy flyers... which of course do nothnig to help your teammates.
