Is EVERYONE at EA & RESPAWN on a RETREAT/VACATION?..

I NEVER thought I would have to post something like this, because I LOVE APEX, it's creators, & the gaming community as a whole.

That being said, as a person who's been playing since DAY 1. (significant because APEX's release Happened to be on the same week as my Birthday)

I CANNOT play APEX right now, since this EVENT started, I have had SO MUCH TROUBLE just trying to play the GAME, FULL STOP. 

I am NOT an employee or a Volunteer. I'm going to use this thread as a place to discuss issues with the game, & potential ways to SOLVE said problems.

I'll even make it nice & EASY to understand the problems I'm having, STARTING with the MOST Significant, & order of IMPORTANCE.

1) DISCONNECTION ISSUES

   - NOBODY at EA/RESPAWN, has put out an OFFICIAL NOTICE to the playerbase. So I'm doing it here.

   - REMOVE ALL of your ANIMATED BANNER POSES, use ONLY STATIC images, RARE POSES(the one's in BLUE text)

   - Having an ANIMATED BANNER equipped WILL CAUSE your game to CRASH, & If you get lucky, & YOUR game DOESN'T crash, guess what, YOUR ANIMATED BANNER, WILL cause some OTHER PLAYERS game to CRASH, just from VIEWING it at the PRE GAME "Champion Squad" showcase, or just by pausing & VIEWING the squad tab.(same with END GAME Results page)

THIS is making EVERY game I play a constant NIGHTMARE of RECONNECTING, & THEN having 1 teammate, or NONE at all in TRIOS. (so I just FALL OFF the map, or land in LAVA, because I CANNOT win as a SOLO, fighting teams of 3)  

2) CHEATERS on Console

    - All these clowns, just demolish any lobby, with NO RECOIL hacks applied to their controller, so Its POINTLESS to play against them, & is EXASPERATED when playing RANKED. (So NO POINT in attempting to play RANKED & better my skills as a player) 

3) SMURF ACCOUNTS

   - They COMPLETELY DESTROY the whole point of matchmaking.

All this has lead me to NOT playing APEX, because there is ZERO FUN to be had, So I've been playing other games instead.

I'm just waiting for an update to address these issues, it just seems like everyone is on Vacation & nobody's at the office working on anything.

This TRULY comes from a place of LOVE. (if I didn't care, I wouldn't be on these forums, I'd be utilizing my time elsewhere)

    ...that "the animated banner problem is solved"... 

    The first problem ever solved twice.

  • If the animated banner problem is fixed why is it when you load the game you get the message that you should not equip animated banners as they may cause problems. The message was there last night soooo......................... me thinks not fully fixed.

    @Asmodeus566 In this case I believe we wanted to be sure the issue was 100% resolved before taking it down, as noted it had been reported fixed previously.

    @EA_David thank you for your feedback much appreciated and a fair enough statement. Once you/EA removes the notice in game I will start using my cool banners etc once again.

    Again thank you for taking your time to reply.
