Question

Product: Star Wars Battlefront IIPlatform:PCWhat is your issue related to? GeneralSummarize your bug Unable to accept party invites since the May 4th event. This happens in the menus. Please ignore the "game mode" selection. It was required but irrelevant. Both my brother and I can't accept each other's party invites using either the hotkey or clicking the UI. After sending an invite, it never times out; so a second invite can't be sent.What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? FalthosHow often does the bug occur?

Pressing they hotkey, Y, to accept the invite doesn't do anything. Trying to click the in-game popup doesn't work either. Neither accept or decline can be clicked on.What do you expect to see?

It just doesn't work.Please select your region North AmericaAMD or Nvidia Model Number ‌I can try to get you a video or screenshot if you think it helps but I fully explained what is happening.

I have notifications disabled in-game, I only hear the sound. So the only way I have to accept a party invite, is by opening the origin menu in-game (Shift+F1), getting into my friends' list, finding the one who sent me an invite, open a chat window with him, and there you'll see a Join Game option. If you've been invited by this player, when you click the Join Game, you'll be added to the party, and if your friend is in a game, you'll be carried there, if not you'll just join his party.

If the person didn't invite you, or the invite expired, clicking the Join Game on Origin's chat window with him will only get you into his match.

Also this doesn't work if any of you are 'Appearing Offline'. To join a party or send party invites, you must be online.

It looks like invites to a player that hasn't launched the game yet will properly pull them into the party but that's the only option I have right now.
