Galactic Assault's Broke

This new update or whatever happened there's a bug that makes it so each phase, all blaster units; special units and blaster heroes, sans jedi and vehicles, the camera locks up making your unit unplayable as it's stuck with not way to move, it's broke! Your mouse doesn't work and the only real recourse is to respawn, the game is broken due to this feature. Capturing teams lose 10-20 per phase and now even more recently the objective is broke, so you can't even capture. It's broke. The bug affecting players needs to be fixed, it still allows hacks and cheaters through so if it was a go at an anti hack, it failed miserably and should revert and EA needs to reset its servers due to the virus that infected it if not. It's Broke, Fix it EA, you're slow at support. It's been a week now at least and now it's to the point where you can't even spawn. It's Broke.

  • I really wish people would wise up and stop calling this out as a bug.  Stop perpetuating this claim; it's a clear hack.  A game that hasn't been patched in however long suddenly getting this issue is far from a bug.

    Hackers are creating chaos and effectively exploiting the game to win, as everyone needs to start from the default point. It affects those with hero characters the most, and in certain stages, if you're in a vehicle, the game cycles through showcase mode, highlighting the environment as a fly-through. ( Hence Cinematic)  It can often be seen not to be triggered, and the hackers win in that it's harder to detect who is at fault for triggering or introducing it. 

    EA, you seem to have gotten a little better at addressing issues, as some of the old hackers have either been banned or you've found a way to stop them without a patch. But at this time, your security team need to monitor the game more regularly. It's getting more difficult for us to help you out, and none of us are paid to do so. Monitor your game traffic and address as necessary. 

    Hackers have ruined the experience for those of us transitioning from console to PC play. Hackers note that they are targets, so they're being more selective in their hacks. I'm seeing increased HP across all game modes, and frankly, as much as the cinematic hack is annoying, it's just one of many hacks you've yet to address. LOCK THEM DOWN FCOL.

    You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Someone at EA in the past year has been slowly patching out the game-breaking cheats, and as a result of the cheats being patched most recently (like a month ago), left a bug that locks your camera every phase in GA.

    It is not some cheater getting into every lobby and toggling the lock. It happens regardless; no one can trigger it. Say...if you think it's a cheat, when was the last time you got into a lobby in GA and everyone got teleported and insta killed? what about having a 500 min timer on supremacy? They fixed the game and broke it in the process. I'm tired of people complaining in every single lobby I'm in about "Gosh darn cheater im leaving", like respawn, and continue playing... not that hard.

  • It is a bug from an update I imagine, for now it fixed the lobbies that were broke with no objective so that's at least a positive note. Takodana map is completely cursed though, I guess they never tested... It's still playable but most maps the camera locks your player at the start of each phase and you have to kill your unit, so capturing teams got nerfed. Essentially broke.

  • Yavin map too, the bug happens 3 times on that map, great map ruined but update bug..... If I didn't mention all blaster hero's get cam locked at the end of each phase aside from the last phase and if you spawn to early your blaster hero still gets camera locked .

  • So if not related, now the game get's to a point where it won't let you spawn. Sure noted in the past but it also stops progression and loses lots of players in the lobby in the meantime. EA lost support on this I guess, hacks seem to have the ability to surpass the update bug that broke all blasters heroes, so good job making sure this game dies fasters cause you couldn't support it. Sorry devs, need some testers? cause you got none as it seems.
