I am TOTALLY fed up with the constant issues with this game and lack of communication from EA. And I'm certainly not alone.

Be it bug reports, technical issues or game-play flaws it's gone too far.

Everyday there's something new to frustrate us and hinder progress within the game.

We get promised this and that but how much of it actually comes to fruition?....

We spend months playing and progressing and upgrading only for trophies/achievements not to unlock and for you to blame the console manufacturers.

We spend an age waiting for patches to fix existing viral issues and for new content to be released only to be let down time and time again.

We get the arrogance of a game that tries to tell players it's their fault they can't connect to servers.

We get an apparently AAA title which loads slower than any other game on platforms from this generation.

We take to these forums to express our feelings of frustration or to report problems only to find that there are countless numbers of others in the same boat and our efforts are meaningless.

We ask for help and support and regular updates (not too much to ask I feel) but just get blanked and/or fobbed off.

We see that the base game has dropped in price 3 fold in less than 4 months which now indicates what we all suspect - EA just don't care about this game.

This is a cry for help from us to you... Please... Just give us the game you promised and the support we deserve!

Sorry if I missed anything here and understand there are countless other problems and points of view which are just as valid as this. I just wanted to give people the chance to comment or XP about the game in general in one thread. So please do.

Hopefully it will get noticed, but it will probably get removed for some reason or another (inciting a riot or something, who knows?) 😃

Great game, should be considered still in beta phase, or should have been sold as early access. For anyone buying now for less than 30 euros, stop crying, thats normal price for even an early access game. I bought it full price pre-order and I am happy with visible work done on the title, though I am a bit sad about the release being rushed, therefore the code seems to be irreversible and many bugs will therefore remain.

@Rogue_Manda_YT in my opinion my personal game stat time of 16+ days (with others no doubt well in advance of that) should in no way mean I should consider this title to still be in beta phase.
Also bought it full price pre-order but am far from happy with work done. That was my point. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough about that.
Should be a great game.
Isn't for so many reasons... customer service (or lack of) and the constant problems with actually playing it consistently being the most prominent.

I would agree but another member pointed out actually to me that this game is in an open "alpha" phase. I too purchased the retail full price pre order of SWBFW Elite Trooper Deluxe Edition. And as such experiencing 1084 separate instances recorded of bugs, glitches, exploits, technical, network, software, developer errors just for one game.

I have played SWBF2 464 hours for Player 1 Main Xbox ID and another 114.36 hours with Player 3 Xbox ID equal to just over 24 days. And already mentioned above, well I cannot in good conscience and in fairness agree that this is a game readily playable. Since delivery, as evidence with show each patch is breaking another aspect of game play with more bugs, glitches, exploits, technical, network, software, developer errors.

Playing mobile game Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes - people, if you can believe it, spend $1000's on that game. It's insane. Way way way way more then the $60 of this title. (and no, I'm one of the addicted whales)
Do you think it works any better? Or has fewer bugs?
Spoiler - it's just as bad. I think Disney needs to look at other companies to license the SW IP to.

I've been playing this game for a while now as well (37,144 minutes = 619 hrs = 25,8 days = I need to get a life)
Issues which made me start drinking again.......
Connectivity issues after patch 1.2
Achievements not being rewarded
Duplicates not being rewarded
Jetpack game, it's boring, it made me brake my controller (after I dropped it)
EA not having a QA department
EA not responding to majority of issues
6 Movies, but still no Obi-Wan
No new maps
Being shot through a wall from time-to-time
Extremely long waiting time while accessing or exiting a game WITHOUT a variety in hold music

Those aren't issues according to EA. They're features.

For me so far its: 1)Broken queue system when with friends (takes 20 minutes to find an actual game cause of empty lobbies)
2)Over a month of the explosive shot glitch not being fixed
3)Or not being able to mute my friends in the games forced voice chat cause we cant turn it off (for some stupid reason)
i'm sure i have more but this is all i can think of at the moment...

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Is-this-game-still-in-Beta/m-p/6654605#M9424 (with kind approval of @Paeleth)

by now, my hopes for this game to become playable some time are very very low.
I really do look forward for skilled hackers to steal the games data from EA and make it public so that proper programmers -not like the monkeys at EA- can make this GAME GREAT AGAIN!!
I would even pay money (in addition to the 60 € for the preorder I got) for that, knowing it would be illegal.
But never will I ever again pay any cent to EA. They just do not deserve it!!
This was the first game I bought from EA, and it will certainly be the last one!
Nice job with loosing your customers EA, nice job!
