Commander mode weirdness

[DrunkenPirate]

I like commander mode and try and play commander as often as I can just lately.
something weird here though if you look, you will notice that the view is much higher than it should be and this only happened when I was knifed whilst in the commander screen less than half a second before the previous round ended.
Upon starting the new round I noticed that the birds-eye view was at least twice as high.

Anyone else seen any other glitches like this?

That's pretty cool. I wish it was like that all the time.

They should implement a Google Earth type of thing where you zoom by rolling the mouse and so you can get a "infinite" levels of zoom. That would be sweet.

haven't been commander much but i think that seeing it like this is maybe more fair ?

i suck as commander btw.

Yeah like that idea. You could then target which part of a poor sods ass you are gonna hit with the artillery!!!!!

I encountered an oddness where my command waypoints were being set about 200 feet ABOVE where I was setting them. I took a screen shot, but it's worthless since you have to see the screen move in order to see what was going on.

I did get a couple WTF's from my team since they were seeing both the waypoints AND the smoke canisters floating way up in the air!

Nope. Dragon Valley.

I'm well and painfully aware of the problems with Wetlands. It's not just the command screen that's screwy on that one. Have you noticed that you have to click off to the side of a spawn point to select it? The whole map is shifted to the right.

Re: Commander mode weirdness

I experience the wierdness that DrunkenPirate has mentioned. Personally, it really doesn't give you an advantage and makes everything small that it's difficult to find small details.

Re: Commander mode weirdness

What are we looking at? It looks like you zoomed in with your scroll wheel. Nothing new, AFAIK.

Re: Commander mode weirdness

No, the picture DrunkenPirate has provided us shows that the real-time map is about twice larger and farther than its suppose to be.

Re: Commander mode weirdness

never seen that before...

scroll zoom would be nice... I would like to be alittle "higher"... gives a better overview imo

Re: Commander mode weirdness

I've been unable to spawn after being commander. This happens actually quite a bit for me.. slightly annoying. but whatever.

Re: Commander mode weirdness

it looks like that when it's zoomed all the way out.
