Hackers in Battlefront 2015/2017: what are EA responses ?
Dear EA, hi everyone, I have been playing battlefront 2015 and 2017 since release on console and later on PC. I have loved those games so much and crafted great memories playing them. Unfortunately, they have shown to be close to unplayable. (at least recently) The following applies more to BF2015 since that's the game I've played the most recently. Cheaters and hackers are all over the place: they see you everywhere, they kill you through wall, they take significantly less damage and deal absurd amount of damage. It is very important to understand, that this not just one hacker in the lobby. Those are several people in the same lobby making the game unplayable, and if you dare say something in the chat, they make the game crash and you instantly return to the main menu. My games usually last 3 minutes before I am kicked out to the main menu, and those are 3 minutes during which I was just killed through wall, at absurd ranges, with absurd amount of damage in no time. This has not always been the case. For instance, I do not remember encountering cheaters at launch. We, the players, use the report feature offered by AI to signal those hackers. However, nothing has changed in years. Cheaters come back with new accounts. Sometimes, they are still playing with the same one, despite reports. My question is, EA, what are you really doing against this ? What are the difficulties you encounter doing so ? How do you see the future of it ? Is the situation overwhelming ? If yes, how it it possible since you have expert hands on the code and can patch the game for each hack reported ? This is a real problem, because you are still selling a game that is almost exclusively an online players versus players game. It holds breaches exploited by hackers, which make the game unplayable. If you allow me the comparison, grocery stores are not selling spoiled food, so why would you ? I, as a player who bought your games, really needs to understand the situation. How did we come to this ? Why can't you get rid of cheaters ? What are doing to solve this issue, also what are you not doing ? I love BF2015. I really wish I could play it. But for now I just need explanations on the products I bought. I know this might not be read. But I am writing on the forum because I know that EA is less and less reachable; from experience, you cannot get those sorts of answer with the technical support system. Also, it is with great pleasure that I will read any comment from people with knowledge on the matter. Sincerly yours.
Star Wars BattleFront II Hacked
At what point do we start to form our own rebellion and fight back against the absolutely abysmal EA Empire for their abandonment?! Every single game is either empty (when we know it's not true, players are online), or the games are filled with hackers. You spend 10 minutes trying to find a playable game that isn't a repetition of the one you just played...when you finally find a unicorn, the game loads and guess what....hackers! Hackers everywhere...every. single. game!! I am new to PC gaming, and Battlefront was the first game that I really got into. It has been my gateway drug into the world of gaming, and a brilliant way for me to start participating in my partners hobby. I get to game with him and his guys, and it is all so exciting! Except, the crappy servers with their lack of control! Does EA even care about the game anymore? Or is this just how it goes?? You spend a bucket of money on an older game that shouldn't cost as much anyway, only to find that the game is actually trying to see if you can retain your mental stability whilst trying to find a single round of mindless shooting without having to sacrifice your firstborn?! Perhaps I am just new and stupid...or.....
Star Wars Jedi 3 Idea
Just had a thought and I wanted to put it somewhere devs might possibly see it. I think, if you need an idea for a cameo, Mace Windu finally returning as he has never been confirmed dead and even George Lucas told Sam, "Yeah, you can be alive," when asked if Mace could have survived. He could resign himself to Tanalorr after his cameo or at the end of the game to explain why he doesn't reappear in any other series. I'm not saying it's the best idea, but I just wanted to offer it up for consideration. If anyone has any other cameo or even general ideas, I'd love to see them below. - JoeBring Back Star Wars Commanders
Does anyone else miss Star Wars Commanders? I can’t find any good mobile games anymore. I am a huge Star Wars fan, but after the most recent Galaxy of Heros update the game isn’t fun anymore. We need more mobile games like Star Wars Commanders that you can build and play with friends. Let me know your thoughts.
How Much Does Character Identity Matter in Star Wars Games?
One thing I’ve always appreciated about Star Wars games is how strongly character identity shapes the experience. Whether you’re playing a fully defined hero or creating your own character, names, backgrounds, and personal choices often affect how immersive the game feels. In RPG-style or story-driven Star Wars games especially, even small details like a character’s name or faction alignment can make the journey feel more personal. Outside of games, fans often enjoy experimenting with Star Wars–style identities just for fun or storytelling inspiration, using tools such as a Star Wars name generator to explore how different names fit within the galaxy. That got me thinking: Do you prefer playing as established characters or creating your own? How important is a character’s name and backstory to your enjoyment of a Star Wars game? Would you like future Star Wars games to offer deeper customization in this area? Interested to hear how others here feel about identity and immersion in Star Wars games.
New PC, SWBF2 Mouse Malfunction
Just in case any one else has had this, I just got a new PC and wanted to see Battlefront2 on it, and the mouse has had issues from the moment I first loaded the game. First time loading, no mouse cursor visible. Second time and thereafter it appeared. But once in game I could only turn left or right a maximum of 90 degrees if that. I'd have to upload a video to show how wack it was. The game's just bugging out with my Deathadder Elite and Synapse 4 software from Razer. I've never had this problem before.My game vanished
I bought battlefront 2 this may and i have played it since. Today i wanted to play it with my friend and it suddenly vanished. on EA it says i dont have the game that i never bought it. Just so you know i bought it through a key on G2A there were no problems for 7 months so i wonder what happened because im not going to spend 40 dollars for it.Lore consistency issues in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Survivor
Hello there, I’m a big Star Wars fan and I genuinely love both Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor. The story, atmosphere, and especially the Vader scenes are amazing. That’s why some small but important lore issues really stand out. In both games there are scenes where ships jump to hyperspace while still inside a planet’s atmosphere. This breaks long-established Star Wars rules and feels unnecessary, since a slightly longer cutscene could have avoided it completely. Another moment that bothered me is the ending of Fallen Order. Vader stabbing Cal straight through the torso with a lightsaber is an incredible scene — but then it’s barely acknowledged afterwards. That’s an injury that should be fatal. If Cal was meant to survive, the scene could have been handled differently. These are small details, but they break immersion in games that otherwise show a lot of love for Star Wars. I hope future titles pay a bit more attention to these kinds of lore details.Frozen EA User Agreement
Just purchased Jedi: Fallen Order and I'm unable to sign the EA User Agreement. I'd describe it as "frozen" because all inputs from the controller inside the game cease to work. However, it's simple to get out of the game and close it with the controller. I've tried essentially everything. Multiple downloads, restored licenses, booting in safe mode, syncing and resyncing EA profile with Sony profile, contacted the live support. Completely broken.Problems with loosing progression
My EA account and my PS5 account are all linked but when I sign into Madden 26 or battlefield six all of my progression, my level is erased. What do I do? I’ve tried launching the game closing the game and it keeps taking me a level one or on Madden 26 saying I’ve never played itMultiplayer still plagued with hackers
every single lobby in every single game mode multiplayer has to offer is hacked, either by time or just plain tp all to 1 place or Aimbots god its so impossible to get into Battlefront 2 coop is the only thing i can play without hackers THEY EVEN HACK EWOK HUNTS!!! no matter how much i report it is never moderated on, i though EA still has to maintain the game that we paid for...
Star Wars: Squadrons Server Files
Hey, it's been almost 5 years since the last major update or news release about this game. Can we please get the server files to ensure the healthy continuation of community events? There have recently been more reports of official server instability as well as uncertainty concerning continued official server uptime and whether the community will be able to reliably access the game's online component in the future.
Star wars squadrons targeting box.
I've only recebtly had this issue and I'm not sure why. It seems to be an old issue but i never had it till now. In VR the targeting box does not surrpind and follow the target, instead it deflets opposite to head orientation. If i look dead startight it sits thwre, if i look up it moves down look down it moves up. Any idea why it's following gead tracking and simply not following the ship like it's supposed to?
