Oh, that's hot.

Not a bug, actually, but how the system is built! The kill cam isn't a 1:1 recording of what happened as you may expect. It's actually the game recreating the event as closely as possible, so it might look a touch off sometimes.

This is one of those things where, to me, it feels like game development is really just black magic. Engineers are way too smart, haha.

Is the MMR bug being looked at as well? I can play with a controller for now, but I need ranked gameplay.

Yup! It's also a top priority. Fitting username, though.

Can you guys PLEASE GIVE US AN ETA on the HOTAS fix? You’re really gimping your launch by doing this...

I can't give a set ETA right now, but things are looking really good. Stay tuned to the EA Star Wars Twitter account for an update on this.

Dear Dev — 120 seconds is not a long time, this post is the one of the most childish complaints I’ve ever seen at the launch of a game, ignore these people in their entirety. Thank you.

Just to touch on this (though the account is now gone), this feedback is as valuable as any other. We take it all into account, as well as metrics around how many players are staying vs quitting and so on.

It's the only payment I accept.

Might I suggest "Pilots in the Hangar" for Members, then?

Edit: Or "Pilots being briefed".

Fun fact: This was a complete accident and we didn't realise until after it was done. The Force works in mysterious ways.

When I first started the game it confused my PS4 controller for a HOTAS and confused the hell out of me. Tried using ds4windows which made it sorta work half the time, and then it randomly fixed after restarting the game and has been fine since. Playing on steam if it matters.

Ahh okay. Well, glad it's working now. :D

u/EA_Charlemagne I imagine you’re probably busy these days, but would it be possible to flag this for the team? It’s a small fix that would make a huge difference in ease of use.

I certainly can!

Charlemagne thanks for the generic answer but please be more specific.

Provide a link to said EA help /Answers HQ

Confer with your staff about the two points raised: will rank be reseted or not?

Third and most important point: you're awesome, I love you, the community loves you so help us we will help you doooode ! :)

Max out

As I said above, we’ll provide more details when we can. The last thing we want to do is get in the habit of promising something before we’re sure of our final answer (since things might not always end up how we initially expect), for better or for worse.

https://www.help.ea.com, by the way.

And we love you, too. I mean, I know.

We are aware of the EA Play issue that certain players are seeing for Star Wars: Squadrons on the Xbox store. Microsoft is actively working to resolve it. Thank you for your patience.

Pro tip for next time: AI names are all-caps on the dashboards, too.

Sorry to be that guy, but hadn't seen the devs tagged on this important issue so tagging u/ea_charlemagne for visibility.

Thanks for the tag. I'll bring this up to the team.

/u/ea_charlemagne on suicide watch, we found their deepest, darkest, most treasured bug haha :D

What if we just left this one in but changed it to "Brought to you by FROSTBITE" or something?

(Working on it, though, haha! Thanks for the flag, everyone!)

Comment

Hey! We're aware that some players have encountered issues with Fleet Battles' placement matches and ranked progression and we're actively investigating! We’ll provide additional details as soon as we can. Thanks for raising this issue to us, everyone!

And be sure to sound off on EA Help/Answers HQ for these bugs when you can. It helps the team get the info they need to investigate.
