Same here on Xbox one, exact same issues on jabba's palace

Great update, but this was not fixed at all. Nothing has changed, Jabbas palace arcade is still BROKEN

Hey Guys, just wanted to chime in here. I played a few rounds of Team Battle Arcade on Jabba's Palace last night and indeed the pathing issue does seem fixed or at least way better. I have noticed that there are times where the bots ( both friendly and enemy ) will stand around and not move at all. Sometimes for minutes on end. Also, it seems like when you play 4 vs 4, there are times where 1 bot on each team will follow another team mate around and at certain times I feel like my entire team is "crowding" me. Almost like they are migrating towards me. Anyway I hope this helps and hopefully EA/Dice will take another look at this. No doubt it's way better, but something just feels off.

Hello @EradanDarkgate and thanks for reporting in!
There have been multiple occasions that such bugs occur, a very prominent one early in the game, was that AI would spawn on top of the kamino cloning facility and drop down on you... That was fixed later on!
Hopefully, they can find the problem in this map as well.

Same problem, this map is almost unplayable since AI goes through the walls and under the floor. Even the blaster shots go through them if they are above or below you on the stairs.

There is a similar bug on takodana Arcade. Sometimes AI troops would be stuck in the floor on Maz's castle.

The issue isn't just with walking through walls, but the Bots will stand still and not move at all after they have been killed the first time. The bots seem to be hanging out in the Rancor pit and on the other side of the map. This happens to about 75% of the bots in the game and some will start respawning in the rancor pit even if the entire other team is there just standing and not moving. I have not had this issue on any other map, just Jabba's Palace.

Earlier in the week someone had brought up the issue with Bots falling through the floor at Maz's Castle on Takodona, I just wanted to also add that at 9:41 pm (Eastern Standard Time ) on September 6th in Team Battle in Arcade Mode I noticed an Officer Class Bot fall through the floor on the Naboo Hangar map. It happened in the hallway between the Power Core Room and the Hangar. Hope this helps!
