So, the critic's scores are starting to come in now (some had the game days ago but obviously EA had a review embargo out).
So far, here's what has come up:
GameRankings: 78.50% (PS4), 70.50% (XBox One)
MetaCritic: 78/100 (PS4), 73/100 (XBox One)
Videogamer.com: 7/10
Seems pretty consistent with what I was expecting for this game. I wasn't expecting critical acclaim and let's face it, this game needed a bit more time. LucasFilm clearly wanted this out before the new film. Still looks like it will be fun, though I expect the next Battlefront title to include more features.
IGN has yet to post but given their past (7.8 too much water) I would take whatever they say with a dose of salt.
