BUG: No Aim reticle when zooming with Heavys DC15-LE with Improved zoom attached

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Since the November patch there is an issue in both Multiplayer and Arcade where Heavy's aim reticle disappears when zooming with DC15-LE weapon while Improved zoom attachment is equipped. Also, player can't zoom with Heavy's Barrage ability probably due to the same issue.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? killer9mm
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 12/01/2018
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 19:00 PM
In what game mode did the bug occur? Galactic Assault
What is your time zone? EET (ART) - GMT + 2:00
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Start a match in Multiplayer or Arcade 2. In character select screen select Heavy class and equip DC15-LE weapon with Improved zoom attachment, also equip Barrage star card. 3. Spawn normally and then try aiming with your weapon, you will notice that aim reticle disappears as soon as you press aim button. 4. Try aiming with barrage ability, you will notice you are not able to zoom with the ability (previously you could zoom normally and everything worked fine)
What happens when the bug occurs? Aim reticle disappears when aiming with weapon, making it much harder to hit anything and to aim reliably. When using Barrage you can't aim anymore due to this bug.
What do you expect to see? I expect for aim reticle to not disappear when aiming, and for Barrage ability to be able to zoom again.
Please select your region Europe
AMD or Nvidia Model Number

@EA_AtaashiI thought it was solved (all yesterday after the update was fine) but I'm having this issue again today.
Just joined a Capital Supremacy game on Kamino, zoomed in, aim reticle wasn't there just like before.

Then I died, respawn and it was back on.

I'll update you if it does it again

I confirm it's still happening, less frequently but it happens.
Capital Supremacy, different maps.
Today 3 times in less than 10 minutes.

This forum should have an undo function for the Solution Label (if it doesn't already). I came here thinking this was a solved issue but it seems it isn't. Unfortunately I never play with these weapons, and rarely I play with trooper classes, so I've never seen this BUG myself.
Can anyone record this BUG after the June 26th patch update and bring this footage here?

If there aren't enough people reporting the issue they won't do anything about it. I just gave up and replaced the improved zoom with explosive shots.

Happens to me every game (capital supremacy), not only with the DC-15LE but with the FWMB-10K with night vision mod as well. It is really annoying.

I want to thank you for pushing to get this fixed initially.
I do not remember the exact date of the patch, but there was a brief period (about a week or so) before the June 26th “Where are those Droideka’s?” update that this bug was 100% consistently fixed on the XboxOne.
Unfortunately, the June 26th update somehow reversed the patch, and this bug is now back and just as bad as it was before.
I was frustrated after the fix ended up being so short lived and just took a break from the game for a while, but I wanted to come back to this thread to report that the June 26th update was what somehow unfixed this bug.
Really hoping you can figure this one out someday... Eventually if this thread can’t get any momentum because it reads as “Fixed” I will start a new thread for this issue.

It also happens to the other scope equipped guns (exclude the sniper obviously)
