It is impossible to play Titanfall 2 multiplayer. The same hacker from Titanfall 1 has brought their serves down. You either can't connect or once you do there is so much lag the game is not playable. This is NOT a problem with my connection many other players have reported this.
Who's doing this?
As far as we are aware, it's still the same person who's been doing the same thing for the past 3 years. Their name is Jeanue, they've used many different Origin usernames, the first being jeanue. The current name of their main Origin account is xxxTitanfailxxx, and from what we can tell, they're now in control of the Origin account NtrlBornKilla as well.
The exploit has been used for years by Jeanue, which he himself lovingly called the "Atomic Bomb" in the bot's name when it joined lobbies and wasn't using the exploit to crash users. It's caused by a buffer overflow caused by the name provided by Jeanue's bots.
While it's possible to fix the buffer overflow, there's a separate exploit deployed since December 2020 which crashes users even if they have the Little Boy exploit patched. This will cause the server to kick the player, and so far we're not aware of a way to fix that issue. Because this new exploit uses more bots and has a larger impact while similar to the older Atomic Bomb exploit, I opted to call it the Fat Man.
Joining any global multiplayer server will result in speed mods that make it really slow to move. We have tons of reports open and EA/respawn is just ignoring the problem.

This is very true and quite sad that a company as big as Respawn/EA cannot get their * together and maybe try to fix the games so they aren’t selling a game that doesn’t work and a game, if you are in a lobby with any kind of Titanfall 2 streamer, you will be experiencing artificially high ping because a little * piece of * decided to hack the servers, and Respawn just decides to ignore it. And now even with the Apex playlist hack, someone is now blocking people from their only others escape into the world of Titanfall. (Sorry for the language, this is just a problem I feel very passionately about and since it is just being ignored, I think the only way to convey my anger towards the hacker and EA/Respawn for the hack is in a very harsh tone).

I don't understand why why respawn isn't doing anything about this. Why in the hell has respawn not permanently banned the person that is doing this and put in measures to prevent this. The servers are already * enough at times.
From what I see, the hacker plays late at night. I say that because there aren't really any issues during the day.
Idk how someone's life is so crappy that they have to ruin video games for everyone. FIX THIS RESPAWN!!

Titanfall 2 on Playstation is getting DDOSed for 3 straight hours now. A status report by @EAHelp would be helpful tbh..

Hi, I own Titanfall 2 on the Xbox One and I'm trying to play the multiplayer game, but I'm not able to connect. I can load the game up, but whenever I connect to a match it will only be a few seconds or a few minutes before my ping spikes to 2000+ and I get frozen in place until I am kicked from the game. I'm unable to play any matches and my Xbox Live subscription is active, and I have no connectivity issues on my end. Not only that, but apparently this is happening to everyone and it's the result of a security flaw in the game's netcode that a hacker is exploiting. I require no help as I fully understand what is happening and acknowledge there is no solution for individuals, I am putting this here to add to the evidence that this is a major, widespread issue that needs to be addressed immediately.
