We have been having issues with game modes switching. We usually play SA, but sometimes it pulls us out of SA and puts us into Blast or HvV or whatever. So I would say we are sort of having the opposite problem, that we are being taken out of the game mode that we play the most. People are reporting weird mode switches in other threads, as well. It baffles me how they were actually able to add a NEW problem to the matchmaking on top of the ones that already exist. Bizzaro!
It's never done that to me.
Never forget
Never forget
at least you're able to play.
It can't be that as my favourite game mode is Starfighter Assault when the bug has kicked in it searches for Heroes v Villains.
Do I have to attempt to 'friend' every person playing in order to try to figure out where they all went?
Why?
Why require 16 players? There are maybe 5 playing at any time in Japan because they (the japanese speakers) have no idea what's going on, have abandoned the game due to a complete void of communication; they don't even know about the Oregon 'trick' that used to work; seems that is now blocked for outside countries since the last 'update'.
@F8RGE - I have to admit, the EOR MM works quite well for GA games during peak hours. Hopefully it is not just because of a lot of ppl playing due to Heroes Unleashed.
Cannot say for other modes, and for other time after the heroes unleashed.
But hopefully that was the doing of this patch in November which you guys released, so kudos for that.
1) i usually start with Kashyyyk - which i do not like to say the least, but can live thru it once.
2) lobbies (GA - Heroes Unleashed) are quite full for me - Server Germany - ping ~23ms - usually around 17-18 ppl.
3) rotation is not so bad, was better, now is worse. But i did not see too much repetition, other than when i start to look for a new game - then i almost 100% time go for Kashyyyk which i dislike the most.
4) Matchmaking takes less than 1 minute and then i usually end up with almost full lobbies - so that's a nice thing for me.
i do not care regarding the issues with squad system, as i do not play in squads. So i cannot say for ppl playing with friends i do not know if it works or not.
5) also i did not play any other modes as i just lack interest in them, so cannot say anything about that part.

Now to the sour part - sometimes it is only 1 Round, so no longer any continuity, what if i wait few rounds in the matchmaking routine just to get my favorite map, and then i join only for half, as one was already gone.
New matches start almost all the time with the same map - Kashyyyk - its like 4-5 times i see the same map, only after next try to find a game i go to like yavin or jakku.
And the most sour part for me personally, after 3 weeks without SWBF2 - i just did not find it so attractive any more
like i had my detox, and now i am free.
From all the comments i see that the game is in such a mess, the one new hero and one new map is not remotely enough to keep me here - yes i do not know no one cares
So i will just take myself and move along to play other games waiting or for some nice content coming in, or for new SW game
All if like to know is why are we forced into MM? Why can't we choose not to
The EoRMM is a failure.
It does NOT matchmake at the end of the round.
It removes me from my team and puts me in a game that NEVER fills. I have to shut it off and reset every ........ time.
Stop towing the company line and stop lying to us.

GA failure
EoRMM is garbage
No group.
http://bit.ly/2smYu2B playa from day 1 when shift was real
I played Strike (and one match of GA, but I had to be a Flametrooper, and only played as a hero at the end) yesterday as well (also I found active Ewok Hunt lobbies twice, enough for the challenge) and the second round was more fun than the first and it seemed to have a regular rotation (Hoth to Kamino), I was on the light side both times though. So here's what I know.
- I have not hit the button.
- Maps have a regular rotation.
- Sometimes it's rebalanced.
- The only match to not fill fast is Ewok Hunt (discounting Hero Starfighters, since I didn't check to see if the others were still playing).
- At least two other players were still playing Ewok Hunt in a different lobby (via the recent players tab).
This could mean one of two things.Never forget

I too would like to know this.
Yea I also wanna know!
Come on.

Ps @f8rge have you sorted out my refund request yet ?
I really wish I did not experience any of these issues nor do i wish i see any of these things as issues. I see a lot of people saying they have no issues with EoR MM.
I'm just wondering if those who don't have an issue with EoR MM if they experience server shuffle, game mode shuffle, error code 1017? And if they do is it a problem? Or does the above not happen to them? Or do they like the server shuffle, game mode shuffle and home screen boot?
In all sincerity, just trying to figure out if this is just one massive conflict of interest
I've never had any of those except maybe shuffle (but it doesn't change rotation) and I think the error code is a different error that requires a reset (and I don't think I had that in awhile, unless that's what affected Ewok Hunt that one time, but the code didn't pop up).
Never forget
Whats the point of a megathread then?
Not looking forward to tomorrows game play unfortunately
What mode were you playing?
In GA server shuffle happens every 2 rounds.
I got booted so many times this weekend to the main menu during EOR MM it's not even funny.
What is also happening is that when me and my wife play together we don't get put in the same squad and often one of us gets booted out with the game saying that the server is full.
Really frustrating system.
yeah here on Sunday all day trying to play GA. One map then boot, which pretty much describes the last three weeks for me
What region? Really weird. Why are the rest of us repeatedly getting thrown into new lobbies every 2 rounds by match making?
I really wish Ben Walke or someone from the dev team can come and answer all our questions.
Yeah, no one expects a manual for a game like this but a bit more info about how exactly EoR MM works would be courteous, especially since we are their test subjects. In fact, all they would do is have to ask and I would bend over backwards for the good of this game. PR wording can be pretty insulting, but I'm not knocking any mods, they are probably bound by certain regulations
Me too.
I think there is most likely only 1 lobby in your region and that is why lobby shuffle does not happen.
Change your server.

Its not a good advice to tell someone to play with 200 ms ping.
I searched for GA and then booted to the main menu. Happened 3 times.
I found matches and full servers (the Heroes unleashed event got them full) but the lag was SUPREME.
So the game experience was poor and not even fun. So I quitted.
Game experience for me has gone from best to worse.
Ive never got any problem to find games at any day or any hour (ANY), even switching among the Ireland, Germany and UK servers.
Now we got EOR MM and just the German server (because DICE shut down the other 2 european servers) and I got LAG, Boot to the main menu, changed from one game mode to another, empty lobbies and many times I cant find matches in SA, Extraction etc.
Before my gaming experience was ok (well, sometimes my team got steamrolled in some matches, but thats is not possible to counter, IN ANY GAME, and It still happens, no matter EOR MM). Now my gaming experience is GARBAGE and Im pretty upset (and sometimes angry), because this is my favorite game.
Yeah for me there was no choice since the devs deleted the local server and now I have to play on German server with 200ms+ ping. The lag is real for me. My friends have now all stopped playing the game and have moved on to other games. Just me and the wife now playing with lots o rubber banding and freezing due to high ping. Thanks EA\Dice, really appreciate the lag.
Ok I lie because i suffered the 201 error in sometimes. But this already happened before EOR.
It happens every time I try to play GA.

They will start rejecting our feedback on that too no doubt.
This game has user feedback??? Where???
Then, the bumpkins put on my team didn’t know what to do. Seven games later, I FINALLY completed the challenge.
EOR MM sucks. It’s that simple.
Then, FIVE tries at HvV before I got to play as the Villains, so I could do the Iden daily. Of course, I was paired against a great team, and teamed up with potato clocks. One person AFK’d the match; the other two just ran...while I was the Target.
Your EOR MM is such a time sink. It does not work. Please, PLEASE, turn it off.
Just in case I wasn’t clear, and there is an ambiguity in my statement; with regard to EOR MM...
This is a great frustration.
The real question right here.
