Console spawn on squad member with d-pad not working

It is working on PlayStation 4, the only difficult thing I find is sometimes you have to press left or up instead of right or down etc. go through the entire D pad

I think you have the same experience I have on Xbox Series S and Xbox One X, for example when your home spawn is on the left of the map and you want to spawn on your squad member on the right side of the map with say 4 flags between where you are on the map and the squad member, you have to press the d-pad around 5 times to get to the squad member, and that is not consistent, because the flag points are mostly on a horizontal line, which affects which point is goes to when pressing right on d-pad. On BF4, you can use the d-pad to select any squad member, it does not go all over the map between points, only the squad members. When you want to spawn on a flag point, you select the flag point with the left stick, you can then spawn on the flag or use right stick to select a vehicle at the flag point. This makes selecting where to spawn very easy. Also would be great to see a video view of the member to see what you spawning into, like with BF4.

Selecting spawn on console is still a problem.

On console in all previous Battlefield games, you can spawn back on a squad member by selecting with d-pad and pressing A button, this is not working in 2042. Also when all squad members are dead, selecting a flag point is very difficult and sometimes impossible depending on where on the map the flag point is. This spawning issue is frustrating to the point not playing BF2042, back to BF4 and BF1.

EDIT: On previous Battlefield, you can use the d-pad to select any squad member, it does not go all over the map between points, only the squad members.
