Re: Skins bought with the celebration upgrade are unavailable offline
@MONST1R2 Unfortunately, this is by design, and it is mentioned in the fine print that an online connection is required to access the CE content. However, there is a workaround on PlayStation 4 (not sure if it works on Xbox or PC):
From the PlayStation menu, go to Settings->Account Management and select "Sign Out"
Launch Battlefront II, clear the "You are not connected to the EA servers" message, then go to the Collection menu, where you will see the skins are unavailable
Press the PS Button, go to Settings->Account Management, select "Sign In", enter your password, and then press the PS Button to return to the game
You will still be in the Collection menu, so press R3 to login to the EA servers and your credits will appear, as will the option to purchase skins
You may now purchase the skins with credits for offline play. Note that when you purchase a skin, the credits will be removed from your account and the skin will appear to still be locked. Once you go offline again the skin will be available in IA and Arcade Modes.
Credit for this workaround goes to The_Stickman from the old Official Forums. There was another user who did some testing to confirm the workaround, but I do not have their name in my notes, unfortunately. I take no credit for this workaround, other than to confirm that it still works as of the most recent update (I use it myself to buy the CE skins for offline play).
