    Summarize your bug Enemy players are marked with a red icon in the map. Enemy players are also marked with a red class icon above their character in the game world e.g. assault, medic etc.
    How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I have no clue how this happened. It happened on firestorm solo mode and it happened in the hangar aswell as the firestorm match. It lasted for the duration of 1 match.
    What happens when the bug occurs? When starting a firestorm game, in the hangar area i already noticed the class icons above some of the other players. In red, there was an indicator of their class above their character in-game. This did only happen to about half of the enemy players waiting in the hangar. When the match started, practically all players in the solo match were marked in-game aswell as on the map with a red icon. I could see them spreading out. After a few seconds all the marks dissapeared. Then again after a few seconds the marks came back, but only to about 20 of the enemy players. Then after a few seconds they dissapeared again and came back after a few seconds to only a handful of enemy players. This process kept on repeating for the duration of the firestorm match. It was updating in real-time, i could see the players moving on the map. Included is a screenshot that shows some of the players with their marks.
    What should be happening instead? Enemy players should not be marked on the map

    I had to downscale the included screenshot to fit the file size limit. A higher resolution image is available.

  • Somebody else reported this also - enemies appeared as spotted on mini-map for entire game. haven't seen it myself on PS4 but other people are definitely reporting it.

    I caught both "bugs" on 1 clip, 1st the enemies on the mini map (which I thought was either my flare or you show up when you fire) and the freezing bug. I play on Xb1x

  • I wonder how the red dots appear on the mini-map as soon as player jump on the plane. I know that player can not do anything while sky-diving.

    Here, add evidence taken yesterday.

    https://youtu.be/LP1L3zpeTy0

    Spotted (?) 4 players is marked by a bright red triangle above their head in Aerodrome.

    It repeatedly appear and disappear. This is not suppression or using flare gun.

    And some players appear and disappear at same place on map repeatedly.

    How many flare guns placed on the Halvoy? If so, How can share the location of spotted enemies?
