[2020] EA/Motive: Please just tell us *if* you're going to fix up this game. We can be patient, but we need some hope.

Was that so hard?

Will you please clarify for the community on wether the 60fps thing is related to crossplay or not, and if its something that we can expect even a semi-timely fix for? This is the general assumption most people have. Some kind of info from the team about this problem would do the game real wonders as far as far as public image goes.

Would you mine clueing us in on what has been fixed and what is going to be fixed?

THANK YOU!!! This is what the community needed to hear.

Just to confirm, the game internally operating at 60hz regardless of the reported framerate/PC power is indeed a bug, and it *can* be fixed because its not a limitation of allowing for crossplay?

Confirmation of the above is all I (as well as a LOT of others Ive spoken with) need answered to keep the game in my library, shut up about the framerates and patiently wait for the fix.

I think to a lot of people, including myself, a ranked reset is really important. Is there a stance you guys have taken? I don’t think it’s really fair to those of us who played day one to get shafted the way we did in rank.

If you guys were planning to fix all the issues then do the reset, I think everyone would respect that. However, the longer you wait to do the reset, the more people will be upset by a reset. Because as it stands I’ve almost grinded out of Maverick at an 80% winrate, but if you guys wait a month to reset it’s gonna be a real kick in the crotch.

Can you confirm if your team is looking on how the game modes play, independent of bugs?

Specifically the spawning in dogfights that lead to a fighter ball sitting in the middle of the map, and the exploit in fleet battles where teams don't attack on their phase?

Thanks for being so responsive!

I can try, but taking money from people knowing a product is faulty is pretty disrespectful. I'll shut up and go back to my broken game like a good boy.

I just wanna know if theirs a way to get my save data back. Opened the game after mission 12 and i am back to the tutorial. I love the game but I dont know if I can push for another play through after my saves just disappeared

Did no one really notice that the game is engine capped at 60 fps? 90% of the pcvr users noticed it immediately.

Perhaps, but I've spoken to people who use oculus rift and rift s, valve index, and htc vive, and all of them are having the same issue. I personally have an index, running on a 3900x, 64gb ram, a nvme ssd, and a 3090, so I know it's not the limitations of my rig.

What can we do to get our issues on that list? Specifically I´m asking because there is a major issue with presumably all game pads / controllers, so pretty much all console players, that is massively impacting flight performance and people may not even be aware of it (because they don´t know how it should be):

As soon as you swap yaw and roll axis, so that pitch and roll are on the same stick (as it is common...), the diagonal input of both axis is almost non-existent. Basically you can only roll with full strength or pitch with full strength. Input both at the same time and the ship barely rotates.
When I connect some other input device that maps the axis to different "input axis", even when using mouse + keyboard, this issue is not present. So anybody who uses pitch + roll on one stick on a controller is massively handicapped.

The bug was reported many days ago in your forums and some EA employee marked it as solved for some weird reason. I´d be really happy to see this on a TODO-list.

A few questions, hope you can answer them:

Can you give an idea of what the reworking of the ranking system is going to look like, or might look like? The EA Answers page mentions that a rework is under discussion.

Would it be possible to maybe include something in the game that explains how it works? On the rare occasions when I can actually get into a ranked match without getting Error Code 218, I can have a pretty good outing and my ranking goes from 900 to 909.

Basically it would be nice if scoring and ranking were less opaque. It seems like no matter what I do in a given round, my score is lower than people who appear to have done less, going by the scoreboard. If I'm doing really well on kills, someone else is outscoring me from cap ship damage. If I'm crushing it on cap ship damage, someone else is outscoring me from kills. I've even had matches where I have more kills and cap ship damage than anyone else on my team, and I'm in like third place.
