It'll never be nor ever has been sorted out.

Re: fake red tags!!

It has not been declared as fixed, primarily because they do not know what is causig it in the first place.
They say they are still working on it.

Re: fake red tags!!

I always have the red tag problem (on myself) when I get auto-switched just as I join a server.Before I can even click a button the server switches and then for the rest of the round or game I get TK'd by teammates.

Re: fake red tags!!

Same old problem with the tag. If it happens to me, i don't use armor or ride vehicles. I wont be distinguished even with my uniform in there. It would be better to stick to a squad and do secondary roles like giving cover fire or support. Your uniform will tell you who you are but its undistinguishable afar.

Re: fake red tags!!

This red tag bug happened to me yesterday. I spawned and saw 2 guys at a distance with red tags over them. I killed them and then got punished for the teamkills...Lame,Lame,LAME-DID I MENTION HOW LAME THIS WAS????

Re: fake red tags!!

its happend to me a few times,ive been the red tag,
and ive killed at least 40 snipers with a red tag from 100m away only to get punished for tk.

im 99% certain that its cuased by the server switching you to the other team in mid game,or a combination of players switching teams,

example A;

team 1 has 16 players & team 2 has 16 players,

team 1 is geting beaten very badly and have a few flags left ect.

1 player joins the server and get put on losing team,followed by 2 more players joning,one goes team 1 other goes team 2 so the balance is 18T1 &17T2.

now add players on team1 leaving for team 2 so its 18/18
this maybe be misunderstood by the server in some way.

(personaly ive seen a team m8 with a red tag for a whole round ,up close its not to bad but at distance it very hard to see there clothing.

of course my idea could be wrong,
its just somthing i came up with due to differnt servers doing differnt things when it comes to even teams.

some servers allow for 3 or more to be on one team others make it stay even,some even switch the whole team from usmac to mec at the start of the second round,which i quite like and have never seen a redtag on these servers on a teammate.

i think EA should try to replicate all instances of server auto balnace when testing,

yes its rare but when it happens its very annoying.

p.s sorry if my idea seems hard to explain,i tryed my best to explain it.

would like to hear what others think about my idea's or indeed other the idea's

Re: fake red tags!!

That makes sense bro!
I think the server did switch me to the other team.

I found out this only happens to me on Kubra Dam.
