Lighting-Bug on Kashyyyk (Nighttime, Arcade)
Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug The Trees on the Kashyyyk Arcade-map glow weird in the dark.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? foolishness
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 31.08.2018
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM)
In what game mode did the bug occur? Arcade Mode
What is your time zone? ECT - GMT + 1:00
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the Nighttime Kashyyyk-map in Arcade and look at the trees
What happens when the bug occurs? At Night on the small map on Kashyyyk (the one for Blast etc.), the leaves have a very weird light-green glow, as if it still was daytime for the trees. I am not quite sure if this happens in Multiplayer too, but it definetley happens in Arcade; everytime that is. There are several Lighting bugs, especially in Arcade, but this one is the weirdest and ugliest.
What do you expect to see? I hope that many of the Lighting-bugs, which actually seem to be especially strong in Arcade on PS4 will be fixed. Especially this particular one. Which would meen that the trees don't glow in the Dark anymore, unless this is on purpose, which I doubt.

At Night on the small Kashyyyk-map (the one for Blast etc.), the leaves have a very weird light-green glow, as if it still was daytime for the trees. I am not quite sure if this happens in Multiplayer too (and if it does, how often), but it definetley happens eveytime in Arcade. (PS4)
There are several strange Lighting bugs (especially in Arcade, it seems), like shadows that only render a few feet infront of you, leading to weird graphics where the Tree-cave on Kashyyyk is lit up a few feet away, but when you get closer it gets darker. But this particular one with glowing leaves is the weirdest and ugliest.
At first I thought this was on purpose, and that the leaves where supposed to glow in the dark. But it just looks too ugly for that. I have a theory that the leaves are still in "Daytime-mode" when this happens and the colours are off because of that, but I think it is an even brighter green that on the Daytime-version of the map.
As I said, I am not entirely sure if this is just an Arcade-thing, since I havent played the small Kashyyyk map at night yet. Heck, maybe this only happens on PS4 and not on PC oder XBox, I have no idea...
