Platform:PC
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Today, I tried out the new update in a match of custom arcade. The first match was fine, however when I wanted to play again a bug occured. I was playing onslaught with the settings adjusted so that I could only choose heroes or special units to play as (see screenshot for all used settings). When I finished the match and clicked on the "play again" button the new match started, however I was unable to choose a character and spawned in directly as a assault trooper. Apparently, it does not matter which character you choose or which settings you are using, because the assault trooper was not even an option with the settings I applied for custom arcade.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play custom arcade on the settings that can be seen in the screenshot below (it would likely work on other settings as well) and play a match and click the "play again" button. The next match will start, however you are unable to choose your hero/villain and will directly be assigned to the assault class. All other settings remain similar to the previous match.
What happens when the bug occurs? The next match will start, however you are unable to choose your hero/villain and will directly be assigned to the assault class. All other settings remain similar to the previous match.

Same issue when playing custom arcade on XBox One. Was able to select my class the first time, every subsequent match automatically started as assault.

Hey @We_are_demons @Julybil @grimmace2, if you re-spawn can you choose what hero/villain to play with or are they till locked ?

No idea, I was farming. My intent was to die quickly and respawn quickly. The bug actually worked in my favor

Nothing in Arcade was modded so of course it's completely screwed up now. The bug list caused by this patch is actually 3x longer than the "fixes" which none work anyway.

Same here, PC user. Please fix, terribly annoying. Worked fine before the Squad update. Thank you in advance EA.
