AI Clone Commando’s Repulsion Blast

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug This one’s really simple. The AI Clone Commando doesn’t realize his repulsion blast is a close ranged weapon. They try to use it on enemies who are way out of reach, like, no where close.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name?
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug?
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM)
In what game mode did the bug occur? Capital Supremacy
What is your time zone?
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play Instant Action and just watch an AI clone commando. The best way to observe is to be a droid and engage him at a distance where he can’t just run up to you but will shoot you. He might try to use the repulsion blast even though you’re way out of reach.
What happens when the bug occurs? He just blasts nothing.
What do you expect to see?
Please select your region North America
AMD or Nvidia Model Number

Disclaimer: This is Instant Action but Supremacy is the closest option

I imagine that whatever code prevents the AI heroes/villains from trying to use force abilities on enemies out of its range is simply missing in the AI clone commando’s repulsion blast.
I also just want to add that I marked it as “Occasionally”. That’s not exactly accurate because I’d say more often than not, the enemy is out of range, however, the use of the ability isn’t too common.

I also want to add that I don’t expect 100% accuracy, but using it when he doesn’t need to wastes the ability. It also prevents him from shooting you and causes him to stand and be an easy target when it’s in use.

I know this bug is incredibly small compared to some others currently in existence. I’m just mentioning it since I couldn’t help but notice it. 🙂

  • I can confirm I've already seen this happening on my end multiple times in Co-Op. Clone Commando AI can trigger his Repulsor Blast while taking fire, or just engaging with an enemy that's far away, and obviously outside the range of the Repulsor Blast.

  • This same sort of bug also seems to affect the Wookiee warrior’s new ground slam ability as well.

    @JKTJH_sny4_play I think the wookie warriors slam is activated by the same code as fortify as if they forgot to change it. it seems to slam when its at low health even if no one is around.

    I also want to point out that I think I saw an officer try to use a diffuser (whatever the ability’s called. I don’t remember) on someone way out of reach.
