Star Wars: Battlefront Dev Tracker
This thread was added on March 26, 2019, with posts from EA_Charlemagne, F8RGE.
A good amount of us seem to be experiencing issues where when we join a match of Capital Supremacy we're met with a server full of people where the match is paused and no one can spawn. Post your platform and ping site and upvote so the devs can see this.
An Example (my situation):
I'm having this issue on PC, East Coast (Virginia) Ping Site. Can't get any matches where the lobby isn't bugged.
On it! In the meantime, leaving and joining a new game can bypass the issue.
We have a repro for this, fix is being worked on.

We call it playtesting (Beta is different), but yes. All the time. Bringing something to a live environment often presents things that can't come up in internal playtesting, though.
I just tried that. Still can’t spawn into game on PS4
It's not a guaranteed fix, unfortunately, but it's worked for a lot of players (myself included). Stay posted for a fix from our end, though.
If I may ask, have you all been tracking the crashing that's been happening in CS as well? Have you figured out the cause?
I've gotten lucky later in the day and played a fair amount of matches of CS and have crashed 5 times in it today and others seem to have the same issue so that will likely be the next major issue after this one is resolved.
Should I submit crash reports somewhere to help your team figure out what may be causing it? I really want the crashing to stop lol.
Bug reports on the forum or help.ea.com are where they're most useful, so I'd post there, too.
It's not coming tonight though. I doubt it anyway. My night is ruined
Getting a fix verified, tested, pushed through 1st party submissions and released within a few hours is not something we're able to do I'm afraid. We are working as fast as possible on this, but we need to make sure we don't rush a fix out, we've seen what happens in that situation.
Have you considered opening up play testing to a live environment then? NDA the play testers and require a sign up and whatnot.
At the scale we'd need, NDAs would be useless, unfortunately. People like to leak Star Wars stuff more than anything else. I don't think that option is even on the table, but we do closed playtests with players under NDAs when we can. Live would be much harder to manage, but I appreciate the thought.
