Can you try reinstalling? It almost sounds like files didn't download/install correctly. Maybe do a hard reset first by unplugging your console for a few seconds. If you're on PC, you can also try repairing the game (and turn off DX12).

Same.

Haha, just teasing. What a great picture!

I've flagged this. Thanks!

Battlefront 2 news or fallen order ?

Fallen Order. First time we’re properly talking about the game!

Thanks for taking the time to meme on here instead of talking to us about fixes

I’m sitting in an airport going to Chicago for a major reveal while also taking player feedback and flagging bugs. I can also comment on funny things from time to time. Don’t be that person.

Awesome guy.

I’m disappointed he doesn’t exclusively play as Maul and Palpatine and then speak like them while playing.

Population-wise, maybe. But that doesn't make up for the crappy launch, long wait, lack of communication, and general shit state of the game for the first 10 months of last year. Alongside all of the delays, bugs, unbalances we've had so far this year. You still have a lot of work to do if you want to rebuild your reputation.

As I said to someone else, we know we still have a long way to go.

Somehow we managed to fend them off, and when we got back on the ground, we had 37 tickets

warning: ending of clip is depressing

/u/F8RGE /u/EA_Charlemagne - bit of a game breaking bug, the enemy got another chance despite us winning, no idea what caused it though.

Huh. That's not good. Thanks for flagging this!

What about being unable to get the best server for your region? I’m on PC on the east coast of the US and I am forced to play in Japan...

Can you reach out to EA Help (help.ea.com)? I think there's a fix for this.

Watch your master carefully, you must. Teach you the way of reddit community, he will.

/u/F8RGE Are you teaching him about the darkside? You know this community will interpet, confirm anything you say, brazenly.

Also, does /u/F8RGE makes you call him ''master'' at work? /u/Charlemagne Be honest. /u/F8RGE what do you call him at work? Be honest.

I don't call him "Master" at work, just Ben...though he and many others have taken to calling me "Padawan" because of all of you.

Already investigating. Thanks. This one has really been a pain (for both you and for us). Sorry about it.

Thats something ive been curious about. Is it populated well enough for a server browser?

That I don't know, nor do I know the dev cost of making a server browser and how much it would take away from making other parts of the game.

You guys definitely did, but I just wish the community could have seen what it would have been like if things were done right in the beginning.

It’s unfortunate that launch window of time is so crucial and just can’t really be made up.

To some degree, I disagree. Other games have shown that if the team is dedicated enough and sticks through it, it does get better and I think this one is part of that category. We're not really talking about this much (maybe we're too afraid to jinx it) but BII is more popular now than almost ever in its history. It might not feel like that at times since a significant majority of our players play GA, CS, and HvV, leaving some of the smaller, less Star Wars-y modes emptier, but the game is doing very, very well population-wise.

Not that you had anything to do with the launch fiasco, but I still believe if players hadn’t outright revolted over that EA woulda been like “sure this release was a great idea” and continued to try and screw players. You did make the right decision and I’m glad you did, because the precedent set otherwise would’ve been awful.

It was an awful precedent. Even though I wasn't part of the team at the time, I was part of the company and I still hold all of us (myself included) responsible for the choice. It shouldn't have happened. We won't let it happen again.

Right. And how many people are asking for ports of Walker Assault maps? You know full well that the majority of requests for ports in this subreddit are confined to smaller scale maps. Come on dude.

A vast majority of the requests are for GA/CS maps (large-scale modes).

That’s a non-response. More of a side step really.

The fact is that many of those maps were designed around smaller scale game modes such as blast and HvV. Which also happens to be reason so many people want those maps ported over. The Sarlaac Pit for instance. Carbon Freezing Chamber would be another. Beautiful maps that are wonderfully designed and would translate very well to Battlefront II.

Or the Bespin map we already brought over. It wasn't a non-response, just more context to the situation as to why some maps might be harder to bring over.

Maybe, but I think we made the right choice. A hard choice, but the right one. Had we not, we wouldn't have been doing right by our players overall, and that's not something that would have sat well with us. We'll get there.
