TBF2 Official Master Bug List
This list is compiled from threads created in our bug reports forum. Please check this thread before creating a new thread about bugs.
If you have something to add to this list, please create an intelligent thread with specific details about what you remember and what you were doing at the time that you noticed this.
(???) Means that I am unsure whether these have been fixed in recent patches.
Graphic Bugs
1. Red name tags on friends and on rare occasion, enemy as Friendly - Also reported as a Green or Blue name tag Bug (http://forums.totalbf2.com/showthread.php?t=45381)
2. Blocky shadows with X800XT series
3. Flag capture-meter not showing correct values/often times, reverses capture direction making you think there are enemies in flag range.
4. Medic packs/ammo packs/grenades etc. mines falling under the ground if someone touches them after you threw them. Does not have to be touched for this clipping to occur.
5. Shadows show through buildings, walls need to block shadows. Discussed HERE
6. Revived teammates sometimes looks unarmed (Pic)
7. wooden doors appears to be destroyed but they aren't (video here)
Audio Bugs
1. Medic heal looping sound when you are healing and pressing G to switch kit
2. Looping weapon sound of friendlies (happens mostly with G3, L85)
3. Can hear enemy radio when dead
Game play Bugs
1. TV guided missile on planes: missile disappearing after fire (video here)
2. Pistol iron sight beneath the actual aim (maybe not a bug but annoying)
3. Vehicle doesn't appear on the mini map when zoomed out to maximum (especially irritating on 16p maps) (???)
4. Clicking done button after being dead, often times removes the chosen spawn selection – most likely clickable area for “done” button is too small.
5. squad leader spawn bug - many times the squad leader shows as a spawn point, but you are unable to spawn on him, you have to ask him to move around in order for you to be able to spawn on him. (may have something to do with being too close to a wall?)
6. TOW/AT rockets going through the vehicle
7. Wake Island Chinese arty turns into USMC arty when USMC captures airbase, people destroying the arty get minus points for destroying the guns. Discussed here
Menu and Miscellaneous Bugs
1. Connection Problems Detected and lost connection to server happens too often
2. Player-rank not loaded when connected to a ranked server
3. Awards never showing up in BFHQ, but you received it in-game and completed the round
4. The in-game info about the servers port number is always displaying 16567, and not the correct number (the server browser is correct though)
5. Deleted battle recorder files (not yet received) will still be there next time you start BF2
6. Loading battle recorder file – can crash
7. Favorite servers which shut down, come up as undefined and can not be removed from the favorites list.
8. Occasionally server does not allow one team to create squads, or sometimes can only create one, only way to fix this is to restart the server.
9. Strange messages about teamkilling when person was not killed, or server saying you were killed and you are not dead. Thread here
10.When in the 'Connect to IP' dialog box, pressing the Tab key to switch fields does not work. It switches once correctly, but press it again and it goes to a field in the main window BEHIND the currently active dialog box.
Minor Bugs
1. Showing incorrect weapon or leaving the field blank in the kill-list (proof: list says AK-74U, player is wearing AK-101)
2. When zoomed IN with sniper rifle it will randomly zoom OUT without player right clicking
3. Vote kick or map vote, arbetrarily creates another vote after first one failed, picks a random players name who did not initiate the vote Thread Here
Items will be added as they are reported.
