Just. an update
I tried most of the afternoon (2.00pm to 4.30pm) with no joy. GA still would not get past the Kashyyyk load screen so ended up playing Blast.
However, tried again tonight 8.00 pm, Kashyyyk screen came up again. Thought Oh No then the game started and I had no further problems.
With crossed fingers, II will attempt to play again tomorrow.
I had exactly the same issue where starting GA would always try to start Kashyyyk. After a long time sitting at the loading screen, the game would return to the main menus of BF 2.
Try this, it worked for me on Xbox One S and I could then play GA and it would go through other maps, including Kashyyyk and let me play GA games.
Exit the game by loading any other game.
Then go to the XBOX Home screen.
Highlight the game Star Wars Battlefront II, press the Menu button on your controller, and then select Manage Game.
In the menu on the left of the screen, scroll down to Saved Data, then highlight the saved data for your gamer tag, specifically on the right and delete the 4GB of saved game data. It will warn you that the data will be recreated when the game starts next time. I did not need to delete my gamer data, only the 4 GB data file.
Launch the game.
I did not need to restart the XBOX or log out. Probably because I first started another game to ensure BF 2 was unloaded from memory before deleting the 4 GB File.

@doingnz I already mentioned these steps on the first page #9 Post

@mysweetescape13 - yes your solution was amazingly helpful and solved the problem for me. I was like everyone else getting very frustrated. Thank you for posting.
I noticed others appeared to not always be successful in executing the steps to fix the issue, so I clarified more specifically the steps I followed to expand on what you originally posted. i.e. I did not delete my gamer info, only the 4 GB file and I loaded another game to fully unload BF 2 from memory before performing the fix. I did not restart the XBOX either, just the BF 2.
I am glad the fix you found was easy to do and effective. I would have been very sad to not be able to play as it's a great game. See you out there in BF 2 some time :-)
- ggibb658 years agoHero (Retired)@doingnz+@mysweetescape13 - Up until a couple of days ago, I had no success doing the fix you posted. Still was getting stuck on Kashyyyk. Then all of a sudden I was able to get into games without a hitch and have had no problems since. I also noticed that EA shut their servers down early hours of Friday morning for maintenance (they put a message on the home screen whilst I was playing late Thursday). Maybe they finally recognised the problem!!!
