Re: red tag bug

yeah, it first got me when i was on Dalian Plant. i was chinese, and the Americans were ivvading our off-limits base. after awhile, my teamates were red. instinctivly, i shot them with a DAO-12. it said that they were fair kills, but then the admins kicked me.

Re: red tag bug

lol, this reminded me of an incident a few days back in Ghost Town. This teamkilling noob (total smacktard) jumped the gun a bit and blamed this one guy for having superduber securitydodging hacks. I cant remember fully what he had said, some stupid thing. I went to the player he was blaming and it was simply the red tag bug.:laugh:

Re: red tag bug

its not a bug, well not always. its a hack called teamhack or something. its where you show red on both teams and if anyone kills you they get a TK, they also can swap teams as they like or show up where they are blue to both sides. My friend and I have been doing allot of hack search on the net due to getting FKED up really bad in the last week or so. You can guess where it comes from. I also read they already got to the 2142 beta. Theres a vid on the net. So dont always assume something is a bug, enough time searching the net can prove other wise.

In my case it's certainly a bug. Due to our ridiculous broadband plans here I used to have a 1gb cap, my 256kbps would be slowed to 64kbps when cap reached. I've now upgraded, I have the same plan but with 5gb cap.

So I used to have red / blue bug for 24 days of the month (with 1gb cap).
Now I have red / blue bug for 12 days of the month (with 5gb cap).

I know when my cap has been reached cos I get the red bug straight away.

Re: red tag bug

The 1.4 patch changelog claims the red bug will be fixed when we update to 1.4.

Re: red tag bug

This is the reason I've taught myself not to shoot at things based on the lack of a fast showing blue name above their head. I actually look at radar/suits they wear to tell...though sometimes I Just can't

Re: red tag bug

especially when you think they are an enemy and get a teamkill

Re: red tag bug

It was supposed to be fixed 2 or 3 patches ago.

Nope the devs said the problem had been addressed. I suppose that means that they officially recognized it; however, as of yet the problem hasn't been solved. It's one of those bugs that will likely never go away.
