Flare exploit?

[Marwin_42]

I saw this helicopter (MI-28) on Gulf of Oman that was constantly dropping flares. Before I was killed by it, it had been dropping flares for about 1 minute with no delay between them. Anyone else seen it?

Yes, we have been discussing this like crazy lately. It'd BETTER get fixed.

Seen it and I think I managed to do it myself.

Maybe it's not a bug but a balancing feature due to the improved AA ?

It's happened to me before, but I wasn't even pressing anything. I thought it was a problem with my joystick.

Heheh..umm.no. They included the on-screen flare reload timer in one of the patches for a reason. The flares are SUPPOSED to have a reload time.

I wonder if they will be hotfixing this one. Once word gets out how to do it, EVERYONE will be doing it.
