EA Staff (Retired)So, if you don't want to delay the update, and it is in "final state"... Surely you have a release date?
BTW I'm still surprised that both the playerbase and dev team are so hung up on these clone skins. I mean, I get it, and I appreciate the response to it... But really, is this the most pressing issue for people? Can we also lobby against cross-era (that spits at SW canon quite extremely, compared to some skins, doesn't it)? Or the armada of bugs, perhaps?
Speaking of which - will this September update also aim at fixing issues? The game really reached a new low regarding Hero glitches with the past few updates, making certain characters unplayable (e.g Boba Fett, whose reveal function was already bugged since launch - now his jetpack sometimes gets stuck in cooldown, making him 100% useless).
I'd at least like the option not to play across eras. Let's hope that the new large game mode(sure I read about this somewhere) will not be cross era. @EA_Ataashi would you happen to have any info on that?
EA Staff (Retired)Hey everyone!
@felker_s - Yes, the September update will also include a few bug fixes. More about it in the upcoming patch notes. The release date should also be announced soon.
@Tinogiggedy - No news about it for now ☹️

I know you are really against cross era. However, I and also many others do like the option to put two characters from different eras against each other.
It makes the game that much more fun.
My problem with appearances of clone troopers were that they are just lazy texture modifications. To hear that they are actually gonna put a lot more
effort into the skins warms my heart!
And that's what Heroes vs Villains is for. Pre-release, they said that "in select game modes", we'll have cross-era. It was quite a bummer to find out that Blast and Strike are the only ones there isn't... And that's even a stretch, since all we have are four guns and all of them are from different eras.
If you take a look at some feedback on this topic on the BF forums, you'll see that many people attack this because of the canon reason - and that is what I don't really understand, in light of everything else in the game. Though it might be because this is an actual inaccuracy, not just taking liberty with time?
Anyway, it's good and all that you like it, but it is not an option - if it were, I would not care. But as long as cross-era is all we have, hell yea I'm gonna speak up against it.
