Are you saying if we pay you enough, you will reveal it to us?

Before someone from our legal team reads this, no I'm not. I just wanted a Star Wars quote instead of either not responding or saying "no comment".

Mind tricks don't work on me. Only money.

Sounds exciting.

Hope you guys deliver.

I like June.

BP costs is something I've been thinking about. Right now there is a lot of "He should be xcost" and "He should be y cost".

To the point where I wonder if it would be better to just have a flat rate cost across the board.

Uhhh.

That's vague.

Don't wanna sound rude but you look frustrated.

Jay has been writing a lot of CTs lately for May, I've been doing stuff for June.

The droid? Who knows, probably sulking around a cargo hold somewhere.

Still a WIP, was talking to Guillaume today about it. Nothing definite yet, but remains something we are actively discussing.

We will be getting it increased, likely to 1min 40sec (ish). Used to be 2 minutes.

Apologies, but when does the event end? It would be fantastic to get this changed as quick as possible, as its had a drastic effect in the wrong direction.

Monday morning EU.

Hey thank you for being willing to try some things to make the mode more enjoyable. What is the feasibility of having the reactors take damage like the generators on Crait? I think the ship phase would be so much more interesting if you had to damage it instead of planting a bomb

I’m not a game designer, so I can’t say I know the answer to that (nor is it my area of expertise), but I imagine there was a good reason we didn’t go that route. We’ll keep tweaking and adjusting things until it’s as fun as it can be, though.

We can't talk bans publicly, please contact the email address you would have been given.

It was shortened as a test for this weekend and will go back to normal on Monday, but I've let the team know that this is probably too short.

Edit: Following up on this, it won't be changed for this weekend but will end with the end of the event.

Edit: Fixed! https://twitter.com/jaykingingram/status/1127113656854958082

Was the team really not aware of this? It's been brought up since the beta. It's already been solved in Battlefield games, and is immediately apparent when you play the game.

It's been on our radar, I'm just resurfacing it.

I guess that kinda shows how incompetent DICE are now. Old DICE is so f**king dead

No.

Will look at it. Thanks. :-)

We'll be keeping an eye on this throughout the weekend and looking at everyone's feedback.

It is a server side change so we can pull levers as we want and make adjustments in between big content updates.

This will be changed in a future update, we just made the change now in our version of the game. Might not make it into the May update though.

I've raised this to the team. Thanks!

I believe there are restrictions around this sort of thing, so I wouldn't count it as likely.
