Lando Calrissian Reported Broken Hero from EA Update No Response No Support

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Lando Calrissian cannot fire main weapon with night vision and without night vision. Lando Calrissian cannot fire with ability Sharp Shot! Lando takes focus and unloads powerful shots on up to five enemies. NOT! After updated from 01/16/2018 ONLY with sprinting will fire main blaster. Again ONLY WITH SPRINTING towards target will fire main blaster. I "NEVER" play Lando as a Hero because he is too weak, now developers have made him useless. This is my third "bug" report since the first is completely "unnoticed"
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? KryptoSpeedster
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 01/24/2018
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 1:20PM
In what game mode did the bug occur? Heroes vs. Villains
What is your time zone? EST (IET) - GMT - 5:30
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game as Lando Calrissian in Galactic Assault, Strike, Blast, Heroes vs. Villains and even Arcade and see for yourself.
What happens when the bug occurs? The "bug" diminishes any capacity to use Lando Calrissian's blaster on any target. You LOSE!
What do you expect to see? I EXPECT to see the primary weapon working!
Please select your region North America
AMD or Nvidia Model Number None

    I found this to be the case too initially (PS4), but I checked the function of the R2 button in a controller diagnostic on pc, and found my R2 button was only registering about 60% on the scale, as the button is pressure sensitive, the rubber grommet under the button was split from many hours of bf1 shooting, to fix myself I put a ceramic bead in the gap and filled the void so to speak, suddenly on trying Lando again, he has become a quick shot blasting machine much to my surprise. Also you may find Han will become more unreliable with firing if this is the issue, being controller function. Check it out, makes a HUGE difference, Lando is now one of my favourites since I fixed my controller. Hope this help with a possible solution. Cheers

    I should clarify, as an IT Network Administrator, Desktop Technician, Apple Guru that I have taken the proper steps to identify the problem is not my controller. This event started after the update as mentioned on 01.16.2018. Furthermore I have tested this with three separate controllers Xbox Wireless Controller model 1607 (2015) edition, Xbox Wireless Controller model 1708 (2016) edition, and my latest less than one month old Microsoft Xbox Elite Controller.

    I have also tested Lando Calrissian with two separate XBox EA memberships on two different consoles, an XBox One 500gb edtion (2015) and a newly purchased, rather rented Xbox One X.

    When playing as Lando Calrissian, the hero, using any xbox controller, as the character is standing still, with default controller settings, pressing the right trigger, "it does not fire"

    When playing as Lando Calrissian, the hero, using any xbox controller, as the character is  sprinting, with default controller settings, pressing the right trigger, "it does fire"

    When playing as Lando Calrissian, the hero, using any xbox controller, as the character is standing still, with default controller settings, first pressing the left trigger "night vision" then pressing the right trigger, "it does not fire"

    When playing as Lando Calrissian, the hero, using any xbox controller, as the character is standing still, with default controller settings, pressing both the left bumber and right bumper for the ability, "it does not fire"

    When playing as Lando Calrissian, the hero, using any xbox controller, as the character is sprinting towards the target, with default controller settings, pressing both the left bumber and right bumper for the ability, "it does fire"

    This does not happen with any other player character such as trooper, office, specialist, or hero such as Han Solo, Chewbacca, Captain Plasma, Boba Fett, etc. ONLY Lando!

    Ok, just thought it may help, sounds like a platform issue for Xbox possibly? As I said I have PS4. As I am an Audio Visual Tech/ Account Manager, I just look for the quick an obvious solution, but sounds more like an in depth problem on programming for Xbox with that character, as you have done all the hardware checks/tests logically. Good luck with your search mate, sorry I can't help.
