Geonosis bugs and Vader force choke bug is back.

Question

Product: Star Wars Battlefront IIPlatform:Sony Playstation 4What is your issue related to? GeneralSummarize your bug In Geonosis, before the update, the Separatist using the Ion torpedo would do a decent amount of damage to the AT-TE (possibly 5-6% per shot) , now it takes about 3 shots to do about 1-2%. Also on the light side, the light saber users can no longer hit the hard cells. I went back to double check and read the community transmission to see if anything changed for the ion torpedo/Geonosis but nothing was mentioned about it. As for Vader's force choke, I notice that you can't cancel your force choke as fast as you can anymore and that it takes about 1 second and when I canceled it to kill the heavy trooper in front of me, I got bugged out.What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? Donny50955How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 12/12/2018What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 5:40pm for Geonosis and 9:42pm for VaderIn what game mode did the bug occur? Galactic AssaultWhat is your time zone? PST - GMT - 8:00Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Will include a video/link to show before and after with Geonosis. For Vader, what I did was activate his force choke and spam the R1 button to cancel fast to kill the heavy trooper but was bugged the moment the animation was done.What happens when the bug occurs? On Geonosis, you cannot hit the hard cells with light saber users anymore, for ion torpedo, the damage seems to barely dent the AT-TE and Vader's force choke animation is back when using his force choke.What do you expect to see? I hope this gets fixed in the future because Geonosis is really unbalanced for the Separatist side.Please select your region North AmericaAMD or Nvidia Model Number ‌Before:&nbsp;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQp-e3i19Oc if you watch in full screen and look at the middle AT-TE you can see it's health dropping down pretty quick with Ion torpedoAfter:&nbsp;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjxEx2CDXCk&nbsp;0:00 - 0:53 Ion torpedo and&nbsp;&nbsp;26:47 - 27:00 for hard cell bug.

That Vader video is very clear, thanks for reporting! You can easily see that this is after the patch, since you can see the roll UI

A fix for this has been placed in multiple patch notes throughout the year if I am not mistaken. None of these patches actually fixed all the problems with the choke.

Maybe it is time to just completely rework the choke.

I promised to myself that I'll try to stick to a more positive attitude in my comments, and I've managed to keep it that way, but... Seriously, the year-old Vader choke bug? The Vader choke bug that is specifically mentioned in the latest patch notes as "fixed"?

I know that bugs are sometimes hard to reproduce in another environment, I get that. But when many months pass, and finally you say it is "fixed", then please let it be fixed. Seriously, not even a day has passed since the update, and someone already ran into it...

Vader's Choke has always had bugs with it ever since they got rid of the mini game to break free of the ability.&nbsp; They always say they fixed it.......BUT IT ALWAYS STILL HAS LOTS OF ISSUES.

I'm going to have to avoid Vader for the time being. ☹️
