Thanks /u/EA_Charlemagne ! I got placed into Mav 1 even though I won all my placements. I'm now hotshot 1 after grinding my tauntauns off.
If I reset, should I expect to get the same placement (mav 1) or could I potentially place higher? Thanks!
You'd likely get higher since the game thought you were fighting against Rank 0 players. Your call, though, since you might end up grinding above where you'd place. That's why we didn't force it.
Hey, pilots,
About a week ago, we deployed a very brief server-side maintenance and have confirmed that it has resolved the issue with players getting stuck at rank 0. However, this only prevents people from being affected moving forward, and players who are currently stuck in this state are still affected. Thankfully, we have a fix en route and wanted to give you all a heads up!
In Update 2.0 next week, we’ll be providing all players with the option to reset their rank. This means players unaffected by the bug won’t be forced to reset if they don’t want to. We know this has taken a while to get out, and for that, we apologize. The team has been working hard on getting this fixed as quickly as we can, but we know it’s put a damper on Fleet Battles for some of you.
Additionally, we also fixed the locked framerate issue on PC and the bug preventing players from completing Mission 9 in Update 1.3 that deployed alongside the Man...

We just did a server-side tweak. Let me know how it feels now!
Releasing a patch and leaving your customers to scramble on the internet to figure out what was or wasn't fixed, with no clear ETA on when patch notes will be available, after what has been in my opinion, a very poor launch plagued with game-breaking bugs.
I'm justifiably frustrated at the lack of information coming from your team. You could've said "Here are the things we attempted to fix-- please help us by continuing to report bugs that may be local to your system so that we can have more data on issues when working on fixes."
To clear something up, we've said a few times now that there are no release notes for this update since the previous Pilot Briefing detailed what was being added and once we confirm the fixes are solid we will be messaging more widely what's been addressed.
This is just embarrassing. Are you honestly proud of your team's work /u/EA_Charlemagne? I don't expect an answer, but I hope you take the criticism to heart because your team has fumbled the launch of one of the funnest games I've ever played.
Wait, what's embarrassing? That we don't want to say something is fixed unless we're sure?
I’m confused as to why this wouldn’t be widely publicized.
It will be once we've confirmed the fix is working as intended across all the many various pieces of hardware. We don't want to say "this is fixed" until we're sure it is for pretty much all our players.
Hey! We're doing some backend tweaks to see if we can improve matchmaking times. Let me know how it feels in a bit.
Edit: Live now!
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!
Hey @tomypit This is some great feedback. Thank you for your post! I'll pass this on to the team☺️

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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.
This is the way.
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...
Read more External link →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.
