          funny why this bug is still around after so many patches that presumably 'Fixed' it.

            Yep, ive seen the bug. I accidently TKed a Redtagging teamamte as a sniper, and that SOB punished me. I had even warned him earlier that he was readtagging.

              I even get a version of it in Singleplayer. There will be no tag above him
              , I shoot him, I get Teamkill damage and punished.

                u get punished in singleplayer? u sure? i dont think the bots do that. punish is only to decide if u get kicked off the server for too many tk, nothing to do with singleplayer.

                  I've had even worse: an enemy player and I were both running towards a transport once, and we got there at exactly the same time. I got the driver seat, he got the gun. We drove around for a while, and I think curiousity got the better of me and I jumped out to look in the back of the Vodnik. He killed me and no teamkill was registered; I checked and he was in fact on the opposite team.

                  So two people on different sides were in the same vehicle! And it wasn't a red-tag bug.

                    Seen the RNTB many times, but I have never been in the same vehicle as one . I never know if it is just my problem or everybody on my team sees it (I usually don't have VOIP going). Always get punished when I kill him.

                    {RANT}

                    They need to get rid of punishing, if somebody is deliberately killing friendlies he can always be voted out. 99 percent of TKs are accidental, and generally BF2ers are intellectually challenged (sorry but it's the truth) and can't be expected to comprehend the difference between accidental and intentional TKs. The other day, I was close to a tank and couldn't see the tag, so I C4ed it. Doh, it was friendly. Yes, I apologized vehemently, but it was an accident, gross accident admittedly, but still unintentional.

                      Kind of odd that a red square shows up when an enemy's in your vehicle... even though it's not supposed to happen.

                        The bug is with the person who sees the redtag not the redtagger....The redtagger will appear as just a normal friendly to the rest of your team. I am seeing this bug all the time in AF and hardly ever in vanilla. In AF the other day in Op Harvest i had at least 3 differnt friendly players that were showing as redtaggers in the 1 round...that was 10% of my team........needless to say i had a bad round. Hopefully, they will be able to recreate it now, then fix it

                              ROTFL! This game has some of the strangest bugs ever. Reminds me of Goldeneye 64!
