DJ_Judas if people are adding away

Should be on a fair amount until the Alpha ends.

How often do people have an issue with squad spawning? It's 50/50 for me whether I can spawn on them or not, I'm unsure if it's a bug or intentional testing to see how it affects the outcome of the round.

Yup having the same issue. Some times I can spawn on leader sometimes I can only spawn at base as the squad has no leader.

Hi Neil, was this you in action?

That looks like it would ruin the game? :confused:

Dont like that spotting at all

gropingmantis · 28 Jul 2011 at 19:56

Wow once you get the 4x for the sniper rifle you can dominate the battlefield. Especially with sprint boost.

Spektor · 28 Jul 2011 at 19:58

@MarkusTempest There are lots of requests and suggestions regarding 3d spotting, weapon dmg and so on.

I dont seem to find the 3D spotting feature much of a problem as people tend not to bother doing it!

antonusklesk · 28 Jul 2011 at 20:10

So you're not being shot from half way across the map with a pistol?

Back to 3d spotting again? wow.

He gets 3 kills after quite a few shots in their direction and the video is quite clearly spliced together from several games/spawns. I could put together a video of me killing everyone with a headshot in BC2, probably take me a long time but it would look like every shot I fired was a headshot. I think people are overly making a big deal of this game mechanic.

If you are, I suggest getting off that rock.

Absolutely crazy. In the old days this kind of thing was a hack. Get rid.

lol looks like we have a fan of the exploit, you keep on defending it.....

is it you in the vid....

Yeah a few people have entered the discussion on it now, is that OK with you?

I don't sit on a rock all the time

Seriously though, the amount of times I'll be killed when there is absolutely no way they can actually see me is somewhat ridiculous. Especially considering the complete lack of awareness people seem to have when they're right in front of me, I just so happen to be below the Q-spam cross-hair height and as a result get walked straight past! :/

Angst · 28 Jul 2011 at 20:15

Ok now battlelog wont let me run the game because aparantly theres a game running in the background, I have reset origin and reloaded battlelog and it has done nothing i have even checked my processes and theres nothing there.

As much as he keeps banging on about it to us, he isn't wrong about it. What you're looking at in that video is a guy sat well within a bush to the extent he can't actually see out of it, however with 3d spotting that doesn't matter he just aims for where the spots are. You surely can't be alright with that?
