Yes, everyone is playing. Perhaps before you blame the game you should blame your connection. Btw we don't need to know how much you paid for it as everyone else paid the same price.
Instead of adding an extended rant, add more info on your issue so we can possibly help you @bokkoms. What have you done to fix it so far?
DON'T blame the conection and countries outside EU and US! I this says it all:
"It's been 2 days I can't play because of "bad connection to the server". Ports open. Anti Virus firewall open or deactivated. Like a half a dozen tickets open, ping test, speed test, and UOtrace that some EA Customer help told me it's my ISP problem. Called my ISP and everything is FINE. Of course it is. I played Star Wars Battlefront for a couple of days without any problem and suddenly for the last 2 days it's impossible. We see PC complains about this, XBOX complains, I CAN play other games online and ridiculously I can play other EA games online. BUT for EA the problem, still, is mine and from my ISP. Worse, being answered by a Brazilian employee... Nothing against in principle, but I also have worked in a call center and unfortunately they aren't known for very smart or diligent with their work. Everyone keeps saying it's all the same portuguese language... NO!! It isn't and that's why there's English US and English UK and English AU AND Portuguese BR and Portuguese PT. I HAD ENOUGH for constantly being confronted with games and programs translated to (they say Portuguese) when actually it's Portuguese-Brazilian. Even the dumb employee couldn't understand what I was saying and worse, didn't believe the information I was giving to her when I told her that I couldn't attach any file to my tickets since 1, I couldn't enter into any ticket, and no option to attach a file was given (finally I talked to another employee that said the "bug" on the help.ea.com site was already been reported). I had to deliver the file through Dropbox instead. Finally I manage to do some UOtrace tests on another game services and the tests went JUST LIKE the one on easo.ea.com but the difference is I can play those other games. SO EA... No! It's not my problem or my ISP. IT'S YOUR PROBLEM EA. Like it was the FAIL on Simcity Launch servers. Like are the problems of bad connections on XBOX players, like it is on Fifa servers etc etc. I'm asking for a refund and I will NEVER buy a game from you again. Goodbye!"
I have 100Mb fiber at home and NEVER had a single problem with a game besides Star Wars Battlefront and Simcity servers on the launch. I play other games online EVEN other EA games. SO YES it's a EA STAR WARS Battlefront problem!
