Yes, Star Wars 2 Battlefront. Star Wars 1 Battlefront and Squadrons work OK (at least for me) on loading. No problems either with other non EA games loading and running. I just double-checked. It could be an issue with Origin as I have seen numerous updates.
I haven't checked the other EA forums as EA probably have a better oversight than I could possibly have....and they can do it a lot more efficiently.
Three thoughts ...
1) if it was due to a Windows update ....why only this specific game, not others and why then can you connect eventually and not "permanently be locked out".
2) is every Windows gamer affected. If some are not ...why not? Still not 100% clear if Playstation and XBox users are seeing this?
3) If EA_Atic and colleagues don't see this happening ...what is different about their settings/position relative to servers versus us?

FDG: SWBF2 could be using specific Windows functions that other games don't. Unlikely though. This being said, I haven't seen enough data yet that says its only happening with SWBF2.

FDG: People apply updates at different rates. Some don't allow Windows to update whenever it feels like it.

FDG: I'm not sure there is a large enough sample of EA employees who have confirmed its working fine.
