Yeah, here’s the reason: DICE keeps forgetting Showdown exists even though it’s the superior Hero mode.

Sadly it makes the playerbase forget about it too when they learn that there’s less maps to play on.

Y’know, originally Showdown was only on one map: Jabba’s Palace.

It got old like that really fast.

We're adding Ajan Kloss to Hero Showdown, so not forgotten about it.

Whatever maps HvV gets hero showdown should also get, including the 4 new maps HvV got that hero showdown for whatever reason didn't get

We are working on Hero Showdown for AJan Kloss.

Has anyone else exclusively played co-op since its release? I only play a couple hours a week, but I love how I can just play as a trooper (heroes are less common) and it doesn't feel competitive. I've been leveling up my Heavy lately and it's been a ton of fun.

It's not my go-to game mode. Is perfect for when I only have 20-30mins of free time for a quick game of something.

Bro wdym, ignoring bug reports is exactly how you handle being a CM.

Never knew bug reports were part of my job, learn something new everyday.

For what it's worth, the vast majority of bugs here get logged within our internal tracking tools for investigation etc. We went through the process of saying "seen", "tagged" etc to know we have seen threads and it was met with a lot of unhappiness after a while, so it stopped.

Yeah if this was a normal game, support would have been gone after the first couple updates since it would be losing tons of money but Disney forced EA to keep supporting the game so they could have a decent modern star wars game.

It was an EA decision to support us and let us continue. This is a EA Good scenario.

This is the first i've heard of this bug and I had tried to be around as much as possible during the holidays too, out of curiosity did you take any footage or screenshot showing that you had completed it? Have you tried to get in touch with EA Help to see if they could send through the item manually? What platform did this occur on?

Cad Bane over Dengar, but Hondo over them both.

Personal preference, no confirmation etc

We (entire studio) watched this in the cinema before we saw Episode IX. Was a lovely moment.

Little bit of a surprise addition this weekend. We also felt it was needed as we had an issue over the holidays where Double XP Wednesday would take precedence over the Triple XP event that was ongoing at the time.

Go get that XP!

We're going to make some minor changes to the Officer in the next update. Mostly around BP gain and the Battle Command 'cone'.

Above tweet is me mostly poking fun at Officer mains.
