Okay, gamers, this one is unprecedented. A Star Wars Battlefront 2 player just did something worthy of another Matrix scenario; there is this almost deafening uproar on the internets. The clip is shared by Reddit user MikeG_2007: it shows a player dodging blaster fire with moves so slick that even Neo would have admired the technique. Think full-on bullet-time Matrix vibes- lasers instead of bullets, and Hoth instead of dystopian future. Close enough, isn’t it?
The now-viral clip shows this player darting around enemy fire with impossible precision. For about five glorious seconds, this lucky player became the chosen one of Battlefront 2, bending the laws of physics or game mechanics to just not getting blasted into outer space. And honestly? That is kind of beautiful. Character movements, timing, and sheer audacity are like a ballet if the ballet involved thermal demolition and blaster rifles.
And, of course, the online reactions have been equally entertaining as the clip itself. “Legendary movement,” “Jedi Master Neo,” and I honestly think they mean both. Someone said the player “activated bullet time mid-match,” which, let’s be honest, is probably true. Another argued the moves were way too smooth to be a lucky mouse flick; it has to be skill or the Force. Can’t tell.
On the contrary, not everyone was impressed. One user saw the opportunity to rant about how PUBG and Free Fire “make people’s minds worse,” which… okay, sure. Others, in the meantime, were just confused, “Is he trying to dodge real bullets or just pretending to be Neo in a snowstorm?” (Spoiler: It’s the latter. Most probably.)
Even the clip gave rise to a discussion of whether Battlefront 2 deserves to be played in 2024 or something. Literally, someone asked, “Is the game worth playing?” And to be honest? Moments like this in matches still happening makes it worth considering. Okay, with all the setbacks at spawning (overstatement of the century), that alone says enough about the game being able to give you some memorable fun moments. Or meme-worthy moments.
Also, someone spoke about it being almost like doing “the Matrix dance at parties.” I honestly agree. We’ve all been there. You’re at a party. The music hits you. You bend backward instinctively, dodging imaginary bullets. No? Just me? Alright.
These are the moments in the clip that remind you why we are addicted to games: it is never about wins and losses; life is about those too-beautiful-to-watch funny moments that make you scream at your screen, “HOW?!” Be it a perfect dodging attempt or a last-second headshot or gliding through the wall in the weirdest way possible-it’s those moments we remember. And this Battlefront 2 player has made one of those memories. Bravo.
So that’s it, I guess, if you needed another reason to go back to Battlefront 2, you have one now. Or go re-watch Matrix; either way, the Force-bullet time effect-is strong with this one.
