There's a bug on console that when you aim, you turn 180 degrees or so.

It's driving a lot of players mad.

It's being back worked on. One of our top priorities right now.

Yup. We’ll be able to unlock them (some at least) in July through community quests.

Correct

Unlike the comments by the other guy (who seems to have deleted them), I’m wondering how you are able to do other sales them. Because for example I bought BF2 on sale. Would that exploit have been available for that too?

The sale for FO that we’re referencing is exclusive to owners of Battlefront II (though it seems like many may not realise that). The system provides you with a discount link within the Battlefront-Origin client. On Xbox and PS, this link is inaccessible, but it can unfortunately be found and exploited on PC.

This sort of sale (a loyalty sale, if you will) is different than a system-wide sale that affects all users or a demographic of users (such as in a certain region), the 10% of for EA/Origin Access subscribers, or the free game for OA Premier subscribers.

Maybe you shouldn’t host a sale on a platform if you don’t have the infrastructure it actually host it on other platforms? Idk just a thought

We’d rather give a discount to as many of our players who already support us as possible. It sucks that it can’t be on every platform this time around, but it is what it is. I believe the discount was already live by the time we discovered the flaw.

So, I give you an honest answer and your response is that I’m either lying or an insult? I know it’s cool to be edgy on the internet, but save that for somewhere else.

Some of my recent pics have been similar with the BF2 logo but no EA, DICE, etc... logos. Are those still good to go or prefer without the BF2 logo?

The game’s logo is totally fine.

That’s literally the reason. Fallen Order isn’t the only title affected. We discovered the discount linking could be used by anyone if it was exposed by someone who knew how to find the link (since Origin also has a website). We’re working to change how the system works.

You know what’s unfair? Offering a 10% discount for Fallen Order on consoles and not pc.

And by this logic why work on fixing Aim Drift? Only part of the community is affected so it doesn’t matter I guess.

Edit: downvotes? How would you like it if pc and Xbox got a 10% sale for Fallen Order but ps4 didn’t? How would you feel if they decided not to work on aim drift since it only affects Xbox?

We want to, but we discovered an exploit on PC for it. It won’t be resolved by the time of release, though.

No, I'm saying that using official logos on user-generated content is very misleading and, if anything, makes it more likely the creator won't get credited for their art. It would be like making your own video game and then putting the DICE logo at the startup. DICE didn't make that so you shouldn't attribute credit to them for your work. I get it looks cool and official when you do that, but it's misleading. You're reading into what I'm saying very wrongly.

In short, putting official watermarks for three companies on UGC is misleading.

I'll relay that to the engineers/software developers who've been working on this. Hopefully, that's exactly what they needed to know to fix it.

I'm asking them not to watermark this to look like it's something official produced by EA/DICE/Lucasfilm. I never insulted the art.

PS4 online services seem to be recovering.
