Based in Melbourne, Australia. Time first played: 11am AEST. Problem still exists 12 hours later at 11pm AEST.
Now to play singleplayer... oh wait, I can't, because it crashes to desktop every single time I start mission 2... sigh. Good old EA.

I also am having this issue, my steam account name is gabewilder360, and the username my friends see is Gabbisan. Im playing from Florida.
I did some test using Charles Logs, and when I boot up SW: Squadrons there are no network calls being made to any EA servers or anywhere at all, so I suspect this may be a network permission thingy. Did the same test with BFV (only other EA game I have on Steam right now) and calls were made to .ea and .origin endpoints.
