This is directly connected to one of my older topics: Problems with Force Powers.

I just thought I'd make a separate one for Obi-Wan, now that he's a new character - but everything stated and shown on video in that topic is still relevant.

Video. Again, it is really chaotic, but pay attention from 0:18 when the push cooldown is over. I activate it shortly after, and nothing happens.

I'll try to record a more visible instance of the bug later, because this might have happened due to Obi-Wan being staggered - though that's another problem with the game: when you get interrupted during power use (with any character), the power goes into cooldown without actually having an effect. And even if this was the case in the video, many times a fully charged & released push is ignored by targets.

    Hello everyone,

    With today's update this should now been fixed, can you confirm that it's working for you? 🙂

    If you have other Obi-Wan bugs please report them in a new thread.

    I'll keep an eye out. I haven't played much, but I did not notice the push bug.

    (Though if it is cancelled by an opponent, it still goes into cooldown, as does any other ability, which is a bad gameplay decision IMO.)

  • @EA_Atic I can confirm that success rate with all out push has definitely increased but is still not 100%. Also today I used all out push on Vader and a load of troopers, well within target area, one trooper in front of Vader immediately eliminated, Vader however was standing in front of the rest with a couple standing to his left hand side about level and just behind, Vader blocked, was staggered but none of the other troopers were affected by the push. Is this intentional? It's understandable the ones behind him were unaffected but the ones next to him not directly behind his force block should surely have been hit should they not? 

  • Obi Wan force push doesn't work half the time for me and i even try and use it when enemy's aren't even facing me or they're battling teammates and it just doesn't do anything 50% of the time. This has only been happening to me since the last update 

  • I agree. The push is maybe 75% accurate which is a lot better than the less than 1% it was before. Why don't you just have the range lines light up when it is accurate so people know when to press the button? Don't get me wrong, I went from 6 push kills for the milestone for most of December to getting the remaining 24 needed today. There were still a number of times where the push didn't kill or it went right through the trooper.

    Same issues with Obi-wan mind trick. Vader able to force choke, Kylo freeze, Maul throw, Palpatine shock, Grievous claw rushing, etc.

    All mentioned were tricked, highlighted with white outline, and used their abilities immediately after the mind trick was activated. 

  • All out push is still flighty. It's not dependable at all. 

    Also there's a glitch in the sound and vibrations of it.  It will continue with the sound and effects when "loading up the push" ...and it won't fire a push, but will go into cooldown mode. The sounds of the load up and vibrations in the controller continue to happen until the push is ready again.
