Battlefront 2 keeps disconnecting from EA servers and can't upgrade star cards

I've been playing Battlefront 2 for a while now... i have been experiencing EA server disconnections since yesterday night. This issue also seems to be affecting my star cards... the game won't let me upgrade my star cards, and when it does allow me to upgrade them here and there it gets stuck on a loading circle as I'm upgrading a star card and then it crashes after a bit. Anyone else having this issue with star cards and server issues?
