Hello there.
The KYBER team has been in contact with DICE to provide a fix for the current ERROR 209 server crash issue, along with multiple other server-side exploits that are being utilized by bad actors to disrupt Battlefront II multiplayer on PC.
In addition to the fixes we have submitted for the ERROR 209 issue, we have also outlined the methods and fixes for a range of other exploits.
This information has been passed to the right people at DICE. Some of these exploits may be fixed before others, so there is no guarantee that everything will return to normal at the same time.
Many of you might remember the 1HP exploit that plagued the game in 2022. We conducted a similar investigation for that particular issue, which resulted in EA deploying a server-side update that rendered it obsolete. So, with any luck, you should expect to see another server-side update that addresses the issues in this post.
These are some of the exploits we have submitted fixes for:
Server crash
Galactic Assault forced cutscene
Galactic Assault (assorted fixes inc. MTT/Walker spam and speed)
Player teleport
Admin chat
Flying
Team switching
Animation swapping on MP
Force join player
Spawn early
Unlimited abilities
Swap character mid-game
...and many more.May the Force be with you,
❤️ from KYBER & the team at Armchair Developers. For someone who just wants to play during the few hours a week that they can, it's so sad to see that someone can just break the game and take away the fun for everyone. In both games I paid my own money to play and now this
I hope at least this time they can do it, when they have already given everything ready and chewed, if they really close their own exploits, thank you very much <3

- @EA_David @EA_Vendcera can you help us?
Just a quick update, the problem still persists, today it is even worse than it was before, I´ve got kicked from 4 games of 5 /supremacy/.
FIX THE GAME EA, I CANT PLAY YOUR GAMES NOW
For the past few days, lobbies have been frequently crashing and you get returned to the menu with a connection error 209. I have confirmed with other players that this is happening to everyone. I strongly believe this is hacker activity. Some other new hacks seem to have been happening the past few days.
These hacks have gotten way beyond ridiculous. There really should be a class action lawsuit or something. If these hackers have this much control over the servers, what else can they do to the players that are connected to them?
You can barely get into a lobby right now. Half the games you get into just crash to the menu with a connection error. I have confirmed with many players in the game that this is affecting everyone. Finally I get in a game that doesn't crash and half way through, someone announces "I am God" and then unleashes a tornado of tanks that ends the game.
The hackers have been really bad the past few days. There seems to be a new set of hacks going around that are a bit different than ones we have seen in the past. There have been some invincible players that glitch around looking like someone dodging bullets in the matrix. There is this guy people call "barcode guy" that seems to have like 10 different hacker accounts all with ||||||| in the name. The other day I was in a lobby where two hackers were fighting with each other. One kicked the other one from the server and then the other re-joined and kicked him back.
This is just insane!!!!
