AIM BASED HUD ICONS are not working since release.

Hello, have to post this again since mine and other reporters previous posts seems to have either vanished or been ignored. It's soon been 4 months since release and this hasn't even been mentioned, nor fixed. This is, in mine (and other players that has grown used to the simplistic but effective way to choose what icons are shown in past Battlefield titles) Such an annoying bug that makes it impossible to customize the icons as intended. From a layman's perspective, couldn't a solution to this be to just remove/give option to disable the "aim based icons opacity" fully, this setting is not needed, the old titles settings were more than enough, and very effective at that.
Please give nay information about what players can expect in the upcoming future, regarding this bug.

I've tried to set up my game like i had it in BF2042, whereas when I aim down sight, all objective/neutral/revive icons disappears (0 opacity on the corresponding slider) except for friendlies and enemies which i still want at 100 opacity when i ADS.
I set up my setting under "Graphics" > "HUD Icons" to be at 0 opacity when "Zoomed" and 100 opacity when not zoomed in.
This I changed in the sub-categories "Objective icons" And "Neutral icons", but kept the opacity at 100 when ("Zoomed") under "Friendly icons", "Squad icons", "Enemy icons"

This does not seem work in-game. I still see all objective icons when i ADS. And i suspect the new settings under "AIM BASED" category in the same sub-menu may play a role in overriding the separately set icons opacities. 

I've also tried to change the "Aim-Based icons opacity" sliders every single way i could think of but I've also tried to keep the default values in that list, to see if it could help but it didn't. (Sometimes all icons disappeared when ADS, even friendlies/enemies and sometimes all were visible instead when ADS depending on how I put these sliders. The point is that I can't get it to differentiate from Objective icons and player icons to either show one or the other when i ADS) The only icon that seems to work is the "Revive" icon, that will completely go away when i ADS if i put it  to 0 "opacity when zoomed".

I feel that this setting category (Aim-Based icons opacity) is somehow overriding the other settings I mentioned above and doesn't take in consideration on what icons i want to show at what opacity, And there's no way i can find to turn this "AIM BASED" setting off, to be able to try it further.

I would greatly appreciate if you could look into this and see if it's working as intended. Having this setting work would be very useful to de-clutter the ADS experience. 

Best regards!

    It's still broken!

    I've been asking for a fix since the launch of the game. I want to fully hide the objective icons like I've done in every other Battlefield game, but I still can't.

    What is the point of having these settings if they do nothing? How have they still not been fixed?
