Troubleshooting & Known Problems

Unable to have people join your lobby? Can’t figure out how to do voice chat on Xbox? Here’s the thread to ask your questions.

**** Cheating Policies & Procedures - Includes information at the bottom of how to report players if they’re observed to have cheated (e.g., missile glitch, unobtainable levels, etc.) ****

[Known Problems] Known problems:
- Modem/port setting recommendations
- Fixing the keybindings while playing a Talon Mercenary kit (PC-ONLY)
- Fix for the missing Thermal Packs for Talon Mercenaries- 'Missile glitch' (which can get a user banned)
- Firebase Rio may cause crashing (seems to be linked to characters doing heavy melee)
- Opponent 'stacking' (landing one atop the other), especially on Firebase Reactor, can cause opponents to become partially immune to damage. Recommendation is to use melee or untargeted AOE to 'unstick' them ( h/t skellington1 and sinvraal)
- The escort drone gets stuck in the environment. One recommendation is to have one of the escorting PCs die, and it may unstick. ( h/t skellington1 and insects)
- Classes may be granted too many build points under certain circumstances (h/t lm_jillybean)
- Volus characters may get stuck in the circular support pillar under the fighter plane on the landing pad/extraction area of Firebase White (.458 on the BSN)
- Volus shield boost can reportedly sometimes cause teammates' weapons and powers to freeze up. Heavy melee or bleeding out can correct it. (h/t _citanul)
- Similar to this, sinvraal suffered a similar issue after using a missile.
- The 'Radius' evolution of shockwave may be bugged. (h/t skellington1)
- Some enemies may be able to walk through the reactor door on Firebase Reactor, even when closed (Jos Hendricks, Bioware)
- Unable to use "Shadow Strike" against Atlases (Chris Schanche, Bioware)

- If your 'Operation RESURGENCE' banner isn't displaying, they've posted a fix (h/t _citanul)
