The problem has been 2 days and EA still have not fix it, HOW?
@PandaKT3 Are you joking? First of all those people are humans. They also deserve some time off. Also, be realistic, your problem is not everyone's problem, it only applies to a very small fraction of the player base. Hence they won't work 24/7 on the weekend on that AND they are not your bit**es. Cut them some slack.
Also did you ever work in IT? Some fixes need time. Especially when it's a bug causing undesired behavior and not just a balance change.

I work in IT and thankful that EA didn't deploy anything on/before the weekend. The devs likely knew about the issue on Thursday, the smart ones asked themselves "We can either deploy a patch Friday, risk breaking Apex for everyone and end up working the whole weekend or do you want to wait until next week?"
The most likely timeframe would look like: Monday find/fix the issue, Tuesday for regression testing, Wednesday to prep all the deployment pipelines, Thursday to "Release the hounds!"

@ToastyCeral Exactly. Never deploy on Friday. Especially when there is another huge update already sheduled for Tuesday next week. Makes just no sense. I just hate to see the sentiment towards the devs in some comments. Also people don't even get that it's not EA working on Apex. People are so out of touch sometimes. I am glad I am not working directly in that field. GabeN put it well on a HL3 release. You can suck the consumers pipi and they still will bit** about stuff.
Somewhat more transparency would be nice tho, Maybe a trelllo board bug tracker which is linked to some (probably Jira?) tickets.- 3 years ago
@hahatmoI'll test with Fortnite on win7 unpatched to see if the EAC also throws anything without the last windows 7 patch.
may take a while 23 gb to go. anyone got an updated fortnite on win7 they can test with?
- 3 years ago@hahatmo Its been an ongoing problem with no word on any channels that they are aware of it since Wednesday. Still just plugging "Last chance to get in on the Gaiden event" and give them money for a prestige skin! Considering how many different threads I've seen here and Reddit, I'd say there's more than enough people locked out of the game right now for them to be working on an emergency hotfix.
