When you complete a team objective the characters in the servers on pc force your character to stare in one direction and no matter what you do or move your mouse you cant move, you have to respawn for it to work normal again. but does it multiple times in the game. Please fix this issue EA and update the game.
CM: Edited to update thread title to include more context
This happens to both my son and I when we play galactic assault as well. Google suggested it could be due to stem or discord overlays, but also mentioned a "known persistent bug" and linked to this forum thread.
Yeah, definitely impacting a whole lot of people (including me) - more than likely everyone, based on additional posts here.
Just wanted to add to this:
It is most definitely an issue impacting multiple people. Galactic Assault is bricked because every time an objective is completed, everyone in the match has their view locked to one spot. Everyone in the match then respawns and potentially loses the hero's/special units they have earned. This issue only seems to appear in Galactic Assault's game mode.
I'm shocked the forum isn't "lighting up like a Christmas tree" with how bad the state of the game is on PC currently.
This has been a bug for some time. I dont think they care anymore
Please fix it

kyber modders have already fixed this bug. now EA needs to get off their butts and fix it as well.
Galactic Assault has a relentless bug for everyone in the lobby during Galactic Assault games on PC. When any objective progresses it locks everyone's camera in the lobby to the ground, with the only solution being to kill yourself and respawn. This breaks the game mode as it forces attacking players to waste their life pool for the assault. Ewok Hunt is also broken. Any game where the Stormtroopers survive to the end, the camera locks for every player in the lobby. This is an older game as far as your company is concerned but with the resources and ability at the disposal of EA, this is inexcusable to be an ongoing problem without a simple patch. The Kyber modders have already fixed this bug within their own servers. Spend a minimal amount of money in comparison to your financial bottom line and fix your product for PC players.
Community ManagerThanks everyone for sharing these examples and additional details. We’ve forwarded the reports to the relevant team for review.
Yep, I've run into this exact issue a bunch of times 😅
I also noticed that the entire screen goes dark (minus the UI) whenever I try to respawn, does this happen to you as well?
