Is New Zealand included in that?

Yes. It's affecting the ANZ region.

Didnt you say there were balance changes coming in next (this) patch? Are we getting patch notes?

No, not this one. The one next week has those changes.

We took a first pass on some tuning changes but we may have over-corrected, so we’re going to keep trying to find the right balance between matchmaking times and match quality for ANZ players until things feel right.

Hello /u/EA_Charlemagne I have yet been able to enjoy the game due to the refresh/frame rate issue that can be wildly discussed everywhere on the internet. Is there an ETA for a fix? It's been nearly a month now since release.

About nine hours ago as a secret part of this update!

If you were unable to complete Mission 9...maybe try again, too.

Are these permanent in game items or do they have to be unlocked in a limited time?

You can unlock them at any time from the moment they're added. They're not timed.

Fall in, pilots. We’ve received a critical transmission from our allies in outlying sectors. The Mandalorian Season 2 is upon us! In preparation for the much-anticipated second season, we’ve flown in a frigate to provide you all with a themed supply drop!

Mandalorian Supply Drop cosmetics

We've worked with Lucasfilm to bring a few Mando-themed goodies to Star Wars™: Squadrons. The Mandalorian is something that has often been a source of inspiration for us due to its close proximity to our game’s timeline, so it only felt natural to pay homage to it.

But of course, we know there’s a particular new cosmetic most of...

Charlemagne, I still find it awesome at the end of the day you are one of us. I flew with you as my 2nd ever game and it was really an honor (you out flew me big time and I thought I'd be running the room).

Hopefully you guys get through the rough stuff and can convince EA to give us more content!

Haha, that's awesome! I love playing with the community or even solo whenever I can.

Hey! I’ve been playing more support than anything else, and I’ve got to say it feels pretty balanced. I can’t say I’ve ever been in a situation where I’ve felt like I was in a position where I couldn’t do anything because of the role, rather than myself, given that all things match made and otherwise were equal. I do wish that some options felt a little more viable (longer range on targeting beacons would feel good, though I’m not sure if that would be broken) and I’m curious about the mechanics/lock on of some abilities.

For example, tactical shield will often override your selected target for someone else, which can feel pretty bad given it’s long cool down. The auto lock on for it also doesn’t differentiate between those who have an overcharged shield/shielding already placed on them, and those who don’t, which can lead to redundant shielding or missing out on a clutch save. A question I have is as to whether or not the shielding applies even if the ally is out of FOV. ...

All that is very good feedback! Thank you! Honestly, sometimes just hearing that something doesn't feel right or is unclear is really important to us.

Got a screenshot of that? If so, I'll flag it. If we're using the censor I think we are, it's made by an AI, so it sometimes gets stuff wrong because it thinks players are using a word as a "bad word."

Edit: The droid is doing its best, though. I believe in it.

I'd definitely be interested in hearing your thoughts around balance for Support if you're maining it! (And anyone else's.)

This particular move, 180ing into Interceptors and shredding them with guns and rockets, is one of the most joyous things to do in the game.

This. I've started to get better at this and it feels so evil to take out a bomber in a joust, but so worth it.

Unorthodox tactics are the best tactics. Well done!

Phew. Is it fixable?

Almost certainly! Not everyone is experiencing it, despite how common it is and seems, so we’re narrowing down the cause for those that are.

Weird that such a massive issue isn't top of the fix list. You guys do acknowledge that it is a big problem right? Just because some PC and VR gamers don't mind massive stuttering, it doesn't mean this isn't a thing.

It is.

So is the ranking, as it currently exists, based on wins and losses? I assumed it was based on personal performance.

Yeah, it's based on a lot of factors beyond just wins and losses.
