Star Wars: Squadrons Dev Tracker

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. ...

Rockets are Love, Rockets are Life.

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.

Phew. Is it fixable?

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.

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

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 pla...

I cannot comprehend why you are repeatedly saying this is not a bug.
What is it then? An inside-joke? "Let´s f**k all people who can only fly with this common control scheme, lol"? Is it a feature to impede people who can fly well with a controller?

I cannot move my ship in the same way all people without this issue can. I cannot change it because my brain is hard wired this way, through years of practice with this control scheme. Why the hell am I being intentionally punished for the way I like to assign my buttons / axis?

Just want to clarify as I saw it referenced before on here but it isn’t in known issues. Is aviator control still being looked at as it is currently bugged? I managed to fix it for myself because it only happens when pitch and roll are bound to the same axis, but it’d be nice for controller users without software to have the option.

If it's one of the top priorities then why is it not listed as so in the notes?

What about the horrible rate in which we gain/lose rank? As of right now, it’s impossible to rank up, because a single loss sets you back multiple wins

thanks for the patch notes. Shame there is no update for the 60fps locked issue. I see it is still on the "under investigation list". Any info you can share with us on that topic?
