Arcade team/enemy classes inconsistant

Still no fix.

Still no fix to this bug in the October patch. This bug has been an issue for One year, eleven months and counting. I have never had the ability to play the game the correct way and the way it was meant to be played. 

Hello @PhilChis 

I see that this bug is still around, even though many cool and exciting single-player features have been added!.

Quite sad that some little bugs do not get dev time to be fixed.

But on the other hand, I find the instant action amazing!

No fix to this bug in the latest patch notes. I will double check, but not holding my breathe. This November will mark the two year anniversary of this bug. After two years I still haven't been able to play the game the way it was meant to be played. 

I checked last night and still no fix to this bug. November 17th will mark two years this has been going on and to think that you can't play Team Death Match in this game without an issue is ridiculous for a 1st/3rd person shooter. 

I'll throw a 2 year birthday party to all BUGs that have persisted from day 1. It'll be a blast! I'm listing them up, and the list only increases.

To expand further, it seems with the "new" AI, even when the classes are consistently "random" for the enemies, I see an overwhelming amount of Heavies.  All popping a variation of sentry.  When playing the battle scenarios for Daily Challenges, specifically Wipe Them Out, I see 80% heavies and 20% Assault.  No officers, no specialists.  Typically I'll play on Tier 2 so I have fast recharge.  Every so often I'll get four or more heavies, all from different spawn points, trapping me in a kill zone with their sentry popped at the same time.  While I like the challenge, it certainly doesn't scream "random."

Still no fix. Who would have thought when buying this game that you would never be able to play Team Deathmatch correctly. Beyond fustrating and now I see that Jedi Fallen order is full of bugs as well. 

Still no fix to the longest ongoing bug and the biggest bug in the game in my opinion. It makes offline Arcade Team Battle ( Team Deathmatch ) unplayable which is laughable for a first/third person shooter. 

Still no fix to this bug. I have also noticed that when playing 4 vs 4, the enemy team will always have one of each class in the game. Friendly A.I. are always Assault Class when playing 2 vs 2 or 4 vs 4 and enemy classes in 4 vs 4 are always one of each class. Neither is random.

Any chance we could get this bug taken care of in the next update?

Can we move this bug to the top of the list? It's been going on since launch. It makes Team Deathmatch / Team Battle in Arcade almost unplayable. My team always wins because it's full of Assault Class Troopers. The fact that this has not been addressed in three years and that it's part of one of the most fundamental modes ( Team Battle/Team Deathmatch ) is ridiculous. 

Just checked the release notes and it looks like no fix to this issue again. I just can't believe in a first person / third person shooter you can't play the most standard game, Team Death match becuase of these bugs. It's quite ridiculous. I'll check it when it's released to make sure, but I'm losing all hope in EA/Dice. 

No fix in the latest update. Hoping we can address this soon. It's been going on since launch and it sucks to not be able to play Team Deathmatch / Team Battle in a first / third person shooter. When selecting random classes, the auto players should be random. Not every auto player should be assault class. 

Played all weekend and still no fix to this in the latest patch. This happens in 2 vs 2 and 4 vs 4. Anytime you play 2 vs 2 or 4 vs 4 the friendly A.I. Auto Players are always Assault Class when they should be random and in 4 vs 4 the enemy A.I. Auto Players are always one of each class when they should be random. Assault Class is one of if not the strongest class in the game so it is almost impossible to get a competitive game. 

Not to mention Infiltration is not working for specialist. The radar does not show enemies.

We also have A.I. Auto Players respawning out of bounds on Jakku, Hoth and Endor. 

We do noy have an option for 6 vs 6 which makes no sense.

And is there any chance the New A.I. Auto Players that were made for Instant Action will be applied to Offline Arcade?

@PhilChis 

I feel sorry for how devs never address the Arcade players. I know there aren't many, and now with IA and Co-Op there probably are even less, but having a day 1 BUG as trivial as that and not bothering to fix it, while fixing Ewok Hunt's description, eyelids, revamping a map by putting pies on it, or those many "fixes" that unfortunately actually break the game more then fix it, instead of fixing an honest issue that has been in the game since launch and should be incredibly simple to make.

But about the new AI, I'm not sure where I saw this, but I remember they mentioning it can't be paused, and that's why it can't come to Arcade, and why you can't pause in IA.

Thanks for the info on Instant Action and the A.I.

Yeah the whole Arcade thing is just a mess. This is the first time in my life I bought a game that did not work at launch. You would think that Team Battle / Team Death Match would be something that a first/third person shooter would make a priority, but not here and it actually affects the game play. It is almost impossible to lose in Team Battle 2 vs 2 or 4 vs 4 because your team mates are always Assault Class and they are too powerful against a team of other classes. Last week I won a game 64 to 0. How fun is that? It's worthless. I just don't understand how Call of Duty comes out with a title every year and at launch you can play all modes online and offline, but here we can't even get the most basic game, Team Battle, to work. I was even hoping that maybe they would add a 6 vs 6 mode that may fix the problem because in 8 vs 8 and 10 vs 10 it's not an issue. Unfortunately, the maps are too small to play with those numbers ( 8 vs 8 and 10 vs 10). 4 vs 4 is the best in my opinion. 

I will say this, if this bug does not get fix, I will make it my life mission to troll EA and Dice until I die making sure that anyone who is thinking about buying one of their titles know what I've had to deal with and what they can expect when purchasing their products. This issue has been going on since November of 2017. Two plus years! I have reported the issue non-stop and I will continue to do so until it gets fixed. Not to mention that we have A.I. auto players respawning out of bounds on Jakku, Hoth and Endor and the Specialist Infiltration has not worked for months! They will fix a hero's eye color but not fix real issues in the game. At some point I will and we all should ask for our money back if these issues aren't corrected. I did not get what I paid for. 

Still no fix to this bug in the latest update. That brings it to 832 days and counting. Offline Arcade never gets any love or any fixes. To think that this game has not worked in 832 days is ridiculous to say the least. 

On top of that Specialist Infiltration is not showing enemies on radar. This has been going on since the summer of 2019. 

We did not get the Interior Ship maps added to offline arcade.

And why don't we have an option for 6 vs 6 in offline arcade Team Battle?

Still no fix to this bug. We have major issues in offline arcade team battle. Not only are team and enemy classes not random, but Specialist Infiltration does not show enemies on radar and A.I. respawns out of bounds on Jakku. 

Isn't it about time to fix these issues that have been going on for years? How can you expect anyone to buy another title from this company or studio?

Breaking news....Still no fix to the offline bugs. I hope all of you who frequent this page remember this before you go out and spend your hard earned money on any new titles from this company or studio. 

@PhilChis 
Star Wars Squadrons? I'll only buy after the launch fiasco when the game price gets halved. And I'll only buy it because it's Star Wars.

EA promised us they'd keep fixing BUGs and issues in Battlefront II, which is another lie. Considering the words from F8RGE, client patches aren't something we'll see ever again, unless a miracle happens. And without Client Patches, 99% of the BUGs can't be fixed.

Also considering they unpinned all important BUGs from here in AHQ as well, it's clear they don't care about this game anymore.

A shame.
