Allies outlined in red and marked as enemies on minimap

★★ Novice

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:PC
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug My minimap marks my allies as enemies, and in some cases they're marked with red outlines despite being, well, allies. Other than that, I can't see the directional red indicator that normally helps me locate enemies as it only appears when I'm around allies. Basically, the game is identifying my own team as the enemy.

It's been like this for a while, and before it's even suggested, I have tried repairing the game and I have no intention of reinstalling the game just to fix something as trivial as this. And I do not believe this is a problem on my end.

The red outline is a bug as old as this game https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Red-Aura-Around-Friendly-Players/m-p/6650022

 

However, it has never been reported together with red flashes on the radar AFAIK.

 

But, there is another BUG about allies making the radar flash in red as if they were enemies, but only when in Armor Class Vehicles: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Armor-vehicles-show-up-as-enemy-on-the-radar/m-p/6523404

 

Maybe in you case both things happened together? If this happen again, and if you may record a clip of it happening, please bring it here. Video evidence is great to help devs get rid of such bugs

It sometimes happens to me when looking into my duel scope.  Allies are outlined as enemies, happens quite often. It doesnt affect my game play so i never said anything. Waited to see if anyone ever had the problem.
