I'm not certain of the exact date this appeared, but I believe it was with the introduction of Capital Supremacy.  My group played Ewok hunt a lot before that, and never saw the bug, and now we all see it every game.  It's a game-breaking bug, especially for the Ewoks, who will run around that huge map forever looking for stormtroopers, and even with the searching ability activated, it is very difficult to find them.  We've realized that it has become very hard to get a game of Ewok hunt the last few days, and I'm guessing it's because the mode has become very frustrating.  New players would be absolutely lost.  In a group, we've compensated by telling each other where we are, even when on opposing sides, and it totally defeats the whole purpose of the mode.  A single player new to the mode would think this is the worst mode ever in the state it is currently in.

  • I forgot to mention the exception.  When an Ewok is actively attacking a stormtrooper, a small red arrow appears momentarily, for a couple of seconds.  At least, we think that combat triggers that arrow, we haven't really played enough to know if that is consistent.  

  • It's a long time ago that I played Ewok hunt, because it only has one map.

    Seems like a random issue to me, hopefully they can provide a fix though as it is nice to see where your teammates are!

  • So this is still a problem.  We tried playing again last night with a group of 6 people, and all players were affected so it is not just one person's settings or account.  As far as we can tell, the red arrow that appears IS related to combat.  Again, this does kill the mode, which is otherwise a very fun mode to play with a group, so a fix would be appreciated.
