Bossk's predator instinct ability doesn't show heat signature at times.

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Bossk's predator instinct (heat vision) would sometimes not show the enemies heat signature.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? Donny50955
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 10/22/2018
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 11:15PM
In what game mode did the bug occur? Galactic Assault
What is your time zone? PST - GMT - 8:00
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try to activate your L1+R1 (predator instinct) ability a couple of times when enemies are around. It would sometimes reveal their heat signature and some times it would not, making you rush in there blind. Will show HTML video for proof.
What happens when the bug occurs? No heat signature, so you think it's safe to move up ahead.
What do you expect to see? I hope this gets fixed in the future so people who main Bossk don't have to worry about rushing in blind.
Please select your region North America
AMD or Nvidia Model Number

    Hey @Spoonyteaspoon

    Thank you so much for your report. I will forward it to our specialists.

    Btw, I watched the whole fragment of your stream, which you linked - you're a deadly Bossk! Even if it seems that his ability doesn't always work like it should.

    So is there a time table on when this will br fixed? It happens pretty much every time I use predator instincts. At least one and sometimes 2-3 of the enemy will not show up. Gets real frustrating when you trigger it, scan for anyone nearby, run around a corner only to find one of the heroes standing there. That wasn't revealed.

    There's this HUGE report about all revealing abilities that don't work, including Bossk's Predator Instincts here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Not-working-Thermal-Binoculars-Scan-Dart-NV-optics-Boba-Fett/td-p/6437653

    Please go there and give it some fuel. This issue affects most if not all revealing abilities in the game, either in failing to overlay, outline, or show dots in the radar of revealed enemies. They tried to improve it, but it didn't change anything.

    We must push this to the top of the priority list for them to fix, it's the worst and most annoying BUG in this game right now.
