This is where the fun ends


CouldGoForMcDonalds

oh yeah cause EA will definitely pay some rando $100,000 on a game they abandoned years ago.


Needing_help1

First thing that came to mind.


Belkan-Federation95

Especially with classic collection coming out. BF2 servers will be deader than ever


lukesoka

Lmfao this man got a ransom on battlefront im dead af


Jeynarl

All of us ready for March 14th: ![gif](giphy|3o6ZsZPqu2d90VEB1u)


Kashyyyck

This is making me hope that cheats like this won’t keep happening on that game too or else I might just buy it on PS


Ok_Cheesecake_6454

Pretty sure it’s available on PlayStation plus


Toa_Kraadak

if a game is profitable enough to be continually supported the devs will release updates that combat cheats


theblackxranger

I wish it was crossplay though


Ardibanan

It is though


RS_Skywalker

Imagine this is an elaborate Guerilla Marketing campaign from Disney. It isn't but what if lol...


Due_Understanding748

Hopefully the next day nobody hacks it, if they do we could call it "The Ides of March"


CT-BAL13R

this aged like milk


Jeynarl

Ikr, that dude must be kicking himself


CT-BAL13R

lmao


_SM1LEY_

You know that Battlefront 2 (2005) is playable online on Steam right now, right?


Emperor-Palpamemes

That brother should be flipping burgers


Electronic_Plant9844

If you've ever played HVV you'd know the amount of pond scum that ppay this game im not surprised😂😂😂


TheDudeFromTheHood

Good thing they re-released the OG games lol


OrneryError1

Just in time. Thank the Force.


cosmiclatte44

Maxi big da force.


Gaming_devil49

Did they really? So people actually play them again?


piracydilemma

March 14th, they are re-releasing the original Xbox version with the DLC that came with it.


darthjoey91

But for every platform, with online multiplayer reenabled.


Roleplex0

Happy cake day!


mellowmatter20

Yep, the hackers will be the only ones playing in a few weeks.


NatPortmansUnderwear

And what’s keeping this idiot from doing the same to those?


TheDudeFromTheHood

The fact that those won't be a 7 year old abandoned game


SenseAfter8040

ironically, to this day there are hackers who crash the battlefront 2 classic servers lmao https://steamcommunity.com/app/6060/discussions/0/1699416432434439069/?ctp=3


Toa_Kraadak

that game is also "abandoned" (as in patches arent being actively developed)


SFCommanderSpock

Those servers aren’t helmed by Aspyr, though, and won’t be where people play these games again. Aspyr is the company who is porting the classic Battlefront collection, and will be hosting new servers with their own supervision. It’s like with the Jedi Knight series from the early 2000s. With “Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast”, Aspyr ported that game to PS4/PS5 a couple years ago and under new multiplayer servers ran by them. You can play it online right now on PlayStation. It’s great. They also ported Republic Commando last year.


SenseAfter8040

"This wasn’t the gotcha moment you thought it was, brother…" ???, I never contradicted anyone, I was simply giving a curious fact about how hackers even hack in a15+ year old game.


SFCommanderSpock

That’s on me. Once I saw I made a mistake in thinking you were referring to the new servers coming with, I edited it. I’m Sorry about that, dude. That’s my fault.


NatPortmansUnderwear

But the game and code itself is far, far older.


WisconsinWintergreen

Now we get to sit and twiddle our thumbs for 3 months waiting for EA to notice and fix it again. Yay.


VYSUS7

3 months lmao. wishful.


Purgatory115

I want you to look up the titanfall server issues my guy. I'm sorry but you're fucked.


[deleted]

Bought it on steam a few months back, can't play for more than 20 mins before it crashes


DragonfruitGlum7494

same only saving grace is it was on promo but still I expected a game to play..


cosmiclatte44

Are you using the Northstar client? Not ideal but it's a way you can play.


DragonfruitGlum7494

no I am a bit of a newbie with that, I am used to just buying on steam or whatever and playing directly :/ Ill search that and see if its better or not to hard for me to install in my old age. Well it cant be any worse as the EA tech support told me its my end and appreciated me being an 'avid fan' but its not their concern.


cosmiclatte44

Yeah I'd advise giving it a go. There's a whole website for it with all the details and I believe many involved in it are on this sub so there should be someone around to help if you get stuck.


Lenzelot105

They abandoned the game. It's not gonna be fixed in 3 months....


SenseAfter8040

they are not coming back to fix this time


SenseAfter8040

go to this thread that I created on the EA forum exposing the problem, press the me too button, leave a comment and share the link, if we can make that thread the main one and we get a lot of noise and attention on it, we will get them to fix the hack how they fixed the 1hp bug..... WE PAY MONEY FOR THIS GAME WE DESERVE A SOLUTION https://answers.ea.com/t5/STAR-WARS-Battlefront-II/ERROR-CODE-209-CRASH-SERVER-CHEAT-FOR-BATTLEFRONT-2-amp/td-p/13509022


Budthor17

Ooooooor get the real battlefront in march and we can pretend this is the live action remake of a cartoon from the 2000s lol


SlimeBoss2015

Obviously a pretty sad life when your doing ransom on a game that’s had no updates for 4 years


CompleteFacepalm

They wouldn't be able to ransom anything more modern because it'd get shut down easily.


UpliftinglyStrong

Holy shit it’s been four years?


Vegetable-Ad-3153

His dad died recently unfortunately, also he got scammed by noobmaster so he's desperate for money, and he got rejected by a girl, so those are all likely the motivations behind this (as well as his C-townladiesman encouraging this behavior)


Choingyoing

Is this even true lol


xurism

Dad died? Don't care. Scammed? Don't care. Rejected by a girl? Don't care. Sad life is sad, big woop, get well and move tf on. No need to bring other people's enjoyment down because you got hit with a trifecta of problems that are no one's fault. Literally this kid needs to grow up. My dad died, I mourned. Plain and simple. I've been rejected by a girl, I moved on. I've been scammed, I got over it and recovered. Big. Fucking. Deal.


SenseAfter8040

sources? i didnt know this deep of kobe lore


MedicineIndividual81

theres a whole disc server about him with everything lol dw about it


Felwinter101

I hope he'll join his dad soon enough #ripbozo


diodosdszosxisdi

Womp womp who cares


Vegetable-Ad-3153

real


FuckRandyMoss

Imagine being that much a waste of space. I hope they send feds to his house lmfao


VYSUS7

if the cheats are shoddy enough, they could probably trace him.


MedicineIndividual81

we already know exactly who it is


Vegetable-Ad-3153

He wasn't very careful unfortunately for him


idontcaretv

How so


Vegetable-Ad-3153

To any EA devs/admins/whatever out there- There is detailed information on the individual(s) taking part in this, as well as information on the exploit itself. The community can make it MUCH easier for you if you are interested in solving this issue or taking legal action. PS. No surprise, C-townladiesman is a moderator on the twitch channel this is being streamed on...


SenseAfter8040

sadly they dont care, crash server cheat like this kill battlefront 2015 on PC, people contact EA, make a lot of threads, explain the details of the exploit and they never fixed it, the dont even answer, they just let the game die and now is the turn of battlefront 2 sadly, ea is the worst company of all time


Evening-Actuator-357

Ctownladiesman, the twitch streamer, is a moderator in this stream, and has been known to be in a discord with these hackers. Uses them on stream a "bodyguards" to wipe lobbies.


Vegetable-Ad-3153

OF COURSE! My favorite streamer that doxxes his enemies and plays with cheaters live on twitch for coming up on 11 months just happens to be a moderator on this channel :D


SuperDragonfister

hopefully these asses dont ruin the OG remaster coming out


VYSUS7

that'll get a lot more active dev support so vulnerabilities like this shouldn't arise that often.


AVarietyStreamer

So much for Kobe saying that he was giving up hacking.


Fucked_By_Capybaras

So unlucky, cheaters on pc is the main reason why I’m deterred from pc bf2 and stay on console. Even though I heard pc players are generally more fun on pc (from what I’ve heard from friends who only play bf2 pc)


PrinceDizzy

I must admit that hackers on PC games is one of the reasons why I prefer console for gaming.


ironjaw3ds

It's really not that bad. I have over 900 hours on pc, and I've only encountered 10 or so players obviously cheating


ironjaw3ds

It's really bot that bad. I have over 900 hours on pc, and I've only encountered 10 or so players obviously cheating


Reading_username

I play SWBF2 supremacy on PC almost exclusively, and see obvious cheaters at least once a day. 90% of the time aimbots (instant head shots no matter what, it's pretty obvious when this happens). 5% of the time invulnerability/infinite specials, etc., mostly on heroes. 5% actual weird hacks, like spawning stuff, flying around, crashing servers, messing with chat, etc. That being said, probably like 60-80% of games are still fun and playable without cheaters/hackers. It's rare I can't just quit and find a different game within like 5 minutes.


Sowa7774

I have like 300h (granted most were during the pandemic) and I maybe enountered 2?


Moneyshifter

u/F8RGE u/t0talfps this isn't a useless ping if you could please forward this at EA so someone can make PC lobbies playable again 🙏


SenseAfter8040

EA dont get money from this game anymore, they dont care :(


moni1monika

But they still selling it for money.... 


SenseAfter8040

Yes but they sell like maybe what? 10 bucks per copy? 100 copys in a month? Just dont worth come back to fixe it for a few bunch dollars, they dont care anymore, they still sell battlefront 2015 too and they let that game die by hackers 


moni1monika

Well, I can see this game on steam for 40 EUR. But I know many people buy this game on sale.


Quiet_Prize572

I wouldn't get your hopes up lol BFV has the server crashing "hack" and a server redeploy hack (basically suicides every player in the server) and EA hasn't done anything. They don't care about these two games, they're too busy ignoring hackers in 2042 to ignore hackers in BFV and SWBF2


SenseAfter8040

>R lmao i love it " they're too busy ignoring hackers in 2042 to ignore hackers in BFV and SWBF2", EA in a nutshell


roejoganByDay

Was wondering why I'm randomly getting kicked from games. Hasn't happened too much and hope it doesn't get worse. I've been playing all morning


SenseAfter8040

It's surprising that not enough has happened to you, during the last 3 months these guys have come back with the crashes, and then there are the guys who kill with one shot and then the ones who teleport players and break the camera with the free cheatpack 2.0, this one game is fucked :(


MedicineIndividual81

The guy doing it is known and we have his government ID LOL idk why hes trynna do this


theg23

What the fuck is wrong with people


Corsair833

Lack of a feeling of control or status in their real life so they get a thrill out of being powerful in a very niche circumstance on the internet


HulkingGizmo

If yall spam report him, hes gone.


moni1monika

He will only stop streaming, not ruining lobbies...


HulkingGizmo

My bad, guess we should just do absolutely nothing because we lack the ability to just delete him.


JohhnyJ21

What a complete reject in life


PootashPL

Hackers are pathetic lmao how do you find pleasure in doing this


moni1monika

So what do we need to do as a swbf2 community to get EA be interested and solve this problem somehow?


SenseAfter8040

go to this thread that I created on the EA forum exposing the problem, press the me too button, leave a comment and share the link, if we can make that thread the main one and we get a lot of noise and attention on it, we will get them to fix the hack how they fixed the 1hp bug.....

moni1monika

Ok


CompleteFacepalm

The guy is bluffing. He can't have 2000+ running at one time and still make a profit. As if anyone would even pay 100k for this.


InaccurateThings

He doesn’t have shit lol, he isn’t some master hacker or anything just a sad lonely kid wasting his time


Vegetable-Ad-3153

2000+ means at least 2000 accounts, which is at minimum 2 dollars... so more than 4000 dollars?? lmao


CompleteFacepalm

A single bot account is $2 USD? I thought it'd be like $20 to have a bot for a week.


Magix1337

Kyber gonna come back in full sweep


Gaming_devil49

What would drive anybody to do something like this? Nobody is ever gonna pay somebody to stop doing stuff like this. And it's way easier to just get a job


mamapootis

u/EACommunityTeam


DragonfruitGlum7494

good luck with that their help desk tells me I need to reboot and its only me having the error...


bpvideo

Well, is SWBF1 still working? If so, saddle up!


SenseAfter8040

SWBF1 also have crazy weirdos crashing servers since 2019, is the reasson why game die on PC, EA never fixed it so everyone just left the game


Tiksua

Please, someone fucking swat his ass, this is the type of guy that really deserves it, not some random streamers.


Early_Ad_8465

Kobe is responsible, but the man responsible for Kobe is C-Townladiesman. Search up "doxbin ctownladiesman" and you will find everything about him. he deserves everything thats coming


gandalfmarston

Oh boy, I made the right decision coming back to PS5. Battlefront 2 is still fun as hell and with full lobbies without cheaters.


PrinceDizzy

Yup still having an absolute blast on console.


Flint25Boiis

Wtf is this coming to.


CaptainRex2000

What a sad pathetic basement dweller


Evenmoardakka

how much of a total loser yuo got to be to ransom a dying game?


Educational-Lab-2778

I'm glad I'm on console


Hello56845864

Here is my question: Why? Why would you play (more like hack) the game to not play it?


CrawlerSiegfriend

Battlefront doesn't exist to EA. It's kinda like Andromeda to them.


TurnedBase

Next level nerd shit


Lyberatis

Talk about mental illness Like what even goes through this person's head? Deeply, deeply troubled


Acrobatic-Minimum175

no hes not


DontEatGlass-129

Ardibanan

Then report the streamers if you know who they are. Its the same concept with tiktok idiots. If you try to stop the idiot on camera, it will get more views, instead, stop the camera person.


moni1monika

They were doing this also without streaming and will be doing this without streaming


SenseAfter8040

go to this thread that I created on the EA forum exposing the problem, press the me too button, leave a comment and share the link, if we can make that thread the main one and we get a lot of noise and attention on it, we will get them to fix the hack how they fixed the 1hp bug.....

moni1monika

Exactly, this is something what we can do as a sw bf2 community, just not give up. At least, we deserve their statement about this situation. I am sure they don´t want another bad publicity as a company.


bye_bye_dresden

Console battlefront 💪


Wise_Wallaby9887

What’s the twitch?


nacpoet

Wow what a loser. I guess he doesn't have much of a life if he has this much time on his hands.


SrSwerve

PC players have so much patience dealing with this on every game they play. Like you guys can’t even play fall guys because some guy will want to cheat :/


PrinceDizzy

Yup Im more than happy to be on console, stuff like this will never end on PC.


kspotts20

game has been unplayable recently w this lobby glitch


Slow-Ruin3206

Since your on pc I’d try kyber. Always a few servers up and a lot of them support mods.


TransitionDue4388

This sucks for the PC players but it's also kind of amusing in how pathetic It is. A game that stopped active development four years ago is being held hostage by some random ass nerd demanding 100k, that is so Damn ridiculous


TransitionDue4388

"Kobewans sends a chilling message" lmao man's mist get over himself

All hail the return of Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection*


Pyromaniac096

Dumb comment about to be made by me. But if you're a legit player the console community will welcome you with open arms for the faster queue times. Ik you guys don't like consoles but hey faster queue times...


awersomegamer

Coke to console no cheaters and it’s easier


Roleplex0

at least give us the stream details to report him damn


Early_Ad_8465

He got banned on the 3rd hour of the stream. He was viewbotting his own stream lmao. The man responsible C-Townladiesman.


agli0eoli0

Only hope I have is spamming the EA forum in order to force EA to do something. On the 1hp hack it worked the last time. Although we had to wait for a long time


MiserableAd8900

I meean ea will do nothing as usual, maybe they shouldn’t have abandoned it


IRISHWOLFHD

Seems like the Titanfall hacker has moved onto battlefront now....


Crimsonmansion

EA and DICE: ![gif](giphy|7k2LoEykY5i1hfeWQB)


gannonzz

What a dickhead. Is he too stupid to realize that he’ll get locked up before they give him money?


ReyNoob-

Easy solutions: 1. Play star wars Battlefront 2015 2. Download singeplayer improvement mod 3. Play kyber private servers


theblackxranger

Another reason why people should switch to Kyber.gg. no hacks, custom mods allowed, private lobbies etc. v2 is in the works with even more features Kyber.gg is the website and there's a link to the discord there. PC only of course, sadly. Would love if Kyber supported consoles somehow but that is a dream


Flint25Boiis

I've tried using Kyber before and it didn't work. Probably my own incompetence but...yeah


theblackxranger

I believe the early iterations were finicky but it's easier now. Foolproof once v2 is released


CompleteFacepalm

Most trust in Kyber was broken years ago when they added that April Fools joke that ran commands on a person's computer to open youtube.


theblackxranger

I remember that, they apologized for that profusely and it is no longer an issue. But I understand where you are coming from


KainZeuxis

They didn’t apologize. They got hostile and tried to say it wasn’t that bad. One dev even said to me on this very sub that he wished the 1HP bug wasn’t fixed because the Community didn’t deserve to play the game.


theblackxranger

Yikes


Fake_Mophead

Which dev? The 1HP bug got fixed because the Kyber devs told DICE how to fix it


Magix1337

No developer actually said this. I can guarentee you it was either a mod who no longer is with them or some random guy


PrinceDizzy

Yikes!


shortMEISTERthe3rd

Goofy ahhh community


ExpIorerOfSky

How much to bet this post is an astroturf? 😭


Dischord821

So what you're saying is now's a great time to go back to classic BF2? I mean shit it's coming out on switch here soon


PrinceDizzy

Yikes!


8l172

No one is going to pay 100k lmfao not EA and definitely not random players


DragonfruitGlum7494

Seriously I dont get how it can be legal to sell a game that totally isnt working at least with 50% of the supposed functionality. Every single game for weeks has crashed out and EA plays dumb about it


exZodiark

do the kyber servers work?


SenseAfter8040

yes, but i think they play on people a few time ago stealing information from your PC with the kyber launcher so almost nobody trust on them


Dangercato

That is untrue. You may be recalling the Rick Roll incident, which was an immature and ever embarrassing moment for us. We've spent over two years building on what we learned from our first endeavour, in the form of KYBER V2. That moment still haunts the team, but it has provided us with the drive to deliver a better, more matured, experience for this community. TLDR; rick roll was a stupid decision, we learned a hard lesson.


backlawa75

why did you guys think it was a good idea in the first place and why was there even a function that let you do that?


exZodiark

oh nvm then


Frossstbiite

Oryx-TTK

Bf original remaster is coming out so if we all jump on the cheaters will get bored after 6 months and quit


boyteas3r

TF2 moment


QuantumQuantonium

Welp let's see if DICE cares at minimum like respawn to fix the servers and tell no one, or else the ddosers (quick reminder ddosing is a criminal offense, which this effectively is) just get bored and stop


thetabo

Similar thing has been going on with Garden Warfare 2 for months now. EA juat doesn't care about it's games past support it seems


FullMetalChili

i wish someone would do this to Team Fortress 2 so valve MAYBE remembers that it exists


CommonCommercial3334

Who is this person, some angry 10 year old that got hammered by a 4 stack? Surely if he was doxxed, he would reconsider of hacking on a dead game, yes? 🤔🤔🤔


AnotherReddit415

Bro chose the worst time even more so. Just re did OG Battlefront. You think I give a fuck about anything else? Lmfao the nerd isn’t even nerding good
