[BATTLEFIELD PORTAL] Unable to start in Team 2 versus AI

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
AMD or Nvidia Model Number Does not matter
Enter RAM memory size in GB Does not matter
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Rush
Please select your region Europe
On which server did this happen? Does not matter
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Does not matter
Summarize your bug When creating a new game mode in BATTLEFIELD PORTAL, for example Rush or Conquest there is no way to switch teams. We are playing standard in team 1 (default) with no option to switch to team 2. This is mostly important when playing versus AI. For example: Setting up a server with minimal edits to preserve the "moderate XP" instead of "Restricted XP" I can only tamper with PvP AI. There is currently no way to have a standard Rush map with the player and his squad on the defensive team (Team 2).
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a battlefield portal server and try to switch to team 2. There just isn't an option.
What happens when the bug occurs? It doesn't switch you to team 2.
What should be happening instead? It should switch you to team 2, without server manipulation to keep giving you moderate exp instead of restricted

    What happens when the bug occurs? in PvE, after set all players in Team 2, in game players will spawn in Team1 instead of Team2. in custom conquest Kaleidoscope is not available in map list.
    What should be happening instead? being able to set players in team 2 in pve and have kaleidoscope in map list in custom conquest.

    In PvE, when i try to set all players to team 2, when the game starts they will all be put to team 1.

    in custom conquest, Kaleidoscope is not available in the map list

  • If you're playing on your own Portal server, you can actually keep selecting "Next Map" whenever it places you on the wrong team and eventually it will flip you to the other side.  It's a workaround, and rather annoying to have to do, but it'll work at least until they put team management in.  I wish they'd make the Portal editor a bit more forgiving though, it'd be nice to be able to have vehicles in Rush against AI without having to sacrifice XP and mastery.
