Honestly if they come back I’d take bug fixes over new content.
especially fixes to issues like this!
Played 12 games tonight and 3 of them had a Vader exploiting this glitch and what was even more sad is they are emoting like they think they're funny. Absolutely ruins the game and it's obvious if nothing is done more and more will follow suit, copy this glitch and kill the game completely for people who play fair. So sad the current state of the game right now. Like the devs, I give up with the game now. I'm just in absolute utter disbelief how such a game changing bug like this has been found in a game 2 and a half years after release!!
Not sure if it helps, but I ran into a similar Darth Vader issue 2 days ago and thought it may be worth to tag onto this issue: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/701476851
This was on Supremacy game mode, and well I may be newish to the game, but I'm pretty sure this is a glitch where you just get like choked/pushed simultaneously and just stun locked.
It seems like the last update they did to the code base to nerf Darth Vader Force Choke left this huge bug. Even with millions of new players I think we're not getting this issue fixed anytime soon and now EA is focusing on releasing a new game which has the same mechanics of a mode inside battlefront 2 for me this is the same as calling the consumers idiots, Fallen Order did sell well but battlefront 2 had so much potential and for me it was not explored to its fullest. Besides that, releasing BB8 and BB9 was a last bad joke from EA, we'll never see Qui Gon Jinn, Windu, Ashoka or anything from the Mandalorian which is very very bad. This game has a lot of good things but the bad are much much much bigger. RIP Battlefront 2 - Darth Vader is its God
There's the Finn glitch, this Vader glitch and now there's a Leia glitch that I'm hearing. With the track record of fixes they always add newer ones or bring back older bugs so It doesn't really matter if they fix it or not. Just quit out if people are low enough to exploit them or just stop playing the game completely in my opinion. Only bad players need to cheat at a game and exploiting these glitches is cheating. It's sad how grouped players have resorted to having a Vader doing the glitch while they're all emoting solo random players with some of them being new. All they're doing is destroying the amount of players playing the game and what will they do when there's nobody left to play. Moronic behaviour. The game had massive potential but failed it so many ways but it was still a good game at times. I think the server itself caused a lot of the issues. I think they'll learn there lesson from the mistake made with this game and make a better job for any future battlefront games although I think we will be waiting for a while
