No, EA, the missions don’t count as a campaign
Turns outthat guy from Breaking Benjaminisn’t the only person disappointed withStar Wars: Battlefront.
John Boyega, of a single episode ofLaw and Order: UK,Attack the Block, and that24miniseries fame, has taken to Twitter to criticise the game’s lack of a single-player campaign:
@EAStarWarsWill fans get a full on offline story mode? It’s more of an enjoyable way to learn controls.

Any of the other fifty gajillion people asking EA about a campaign would probably just be ignored. But when the god damn star ofDa Brickpops up in your mentions, you generally need to take notice. That’s exactly what EA did by inviting Boyega (or rather, letting him invite himself, because he is awesome) to its UK offices:
@EAStarWarsyeah thought it was great! But definitely leaves you wanting to engage within a narrative. Can I visit your base in the uk?

Nothing will come of this, so don’t get too excited. EA has already said that it isfocusing on the original trilogyforBattlefront, and Peter Moore has previously claimed thatpeople don’t play single-player campaignsin this sort of game anymore.
I don’t think anyone, even John Boyega, star ofImperial Dreams, could convince them to make an incredibly expensive single-player campaign, as nice as it would be. Nonetheless, aBattlefront 2campaign where Finn, Poe, and Rey go and wreck literally everyone’s shit with campy laser noises would be absolutely amazing.
Oh, and it turns out Boyega is also a leading role inThe Force Awakens.What a coincidence!
