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've just stopped trying to play it, it's impossible! Titanfall 2 has been DDOS'd for months and nothing... no one is moving to help us.
WHAT CAN WE DO TO GET SOMEONE TO HELP US ????
- 4 years ago@IIWAPPOII I imagine you can't - unless you somehow become head of EA and decide against the interest of your shareholders and force money down the drain to fix this ol' gem up. The best thing you can do, I believe, is to report the game as broken and unplayable, being without upkeep, selling at full price (if it is, if it isn't just report it's still being sold) despite not living up to any of the promises made by the seller about the product to your gaming platform provider (Steam, PS Store, etc). If enough of us do this they'll have to look into it, if all platforms (save EA's own) remove it from their shelves until it's fixed and playable media will pick up on it, if media spreads the word it will damage EA stock value and when that happens you'll force their hand, I think. Naturally, there's no guarantee they'll choose to fix it, they might just opt to can it instead, just like Titanfall recently, but that's still better than this constantly perpetuated bs about "working on it". Had someone, anyone, with any level of competence been working on this for nearly a year they would've found something by now, had they found anything it would've been mentioned to us by now and we would've seen actual change. We haven't, though, have we?
