    Seven (7) more little things that'll never get fixed.

    Here's Part 1: "Eight (8) little things that'll never get fixed", if you missed it. Now, on with Part 2.
    1. Grass is only visible from very close. Thus, players "hiding" in grass feel hidden and have their view obscured by dense foliage, but opposing players don't see the grass at all and can see the "hidden" player quite clearly - making hiding in vegetation more of a self-imposed handicap.
    2. When enemy players are visible on the mini-map (as with a UAV), support and medic players can see who needs ammo and who needs health on the enemy team. Just look for the small orange/red circles around the minimap icons and then go hunt down the weakest links in their herd.
    3. The pistol iron sights are off for all but the USMC Beretta. The MEC pistol has to be aimed below the target, the PLA pistol must be aimed alightly above.
    4. It's still way too easy to get stuck in some AA sites, such as the Northernmost IGLA on Dragon Valley.
    5. Feet stick through walls. These same feet can be knifed, killing the unlucky target.
    6. Stationary transport vehicles cannot be secured and always slide downhill, even the slightest grades - especially if you're firing the mounted .50 cal.
    7. Votes will never work because the required votes don't scale/adjust based on players who have voting disabled.

          I tried this yesterday for the first time:

          Fly as an engineer (in this example, I was USMC on Gulf of Oman). Once the friendly artillery is knocked out, fly over the damaged/destroyed artillery for a quick fix. Sure, they'll be at low health, but they can still operate.

          Interesting stat padding method: One team flies over to repair while the other team flies over to destroy. No, I do not condone this behavior.

              Getting ejected from choppers when ending in-game chat sentence with 'e'. Sometimes you don't even need to finish with 'e', but while you type 'e' gets "eaten" (instead of "take cover" you get "tak cover") and you get ejected anyway.

              Present since 1.0.

                    Ya right... repair stat padding in that manner... you'd get maybe 10 points :laugh:

                    On Oman I always fly as engi whether in plane or chopper. If you are in the F35B and the Arty goes down you can do a flyby on the artillery and bring them all back to functionality.

                      Haha, wow I have experience all of these and thought it was just me being retarded until now! That makes me feel better that they seem to be bugs... but then it makes me feel worse to know they won't be fixed

                        if you are hiding in the grass - you disappear just as the grass does from far away. unless they changed that.

                          You're not thinking about it in quite the same manner as I. Imagine you're flying the SU-34 and I'm flying the F35. You bomb the USMLC artillery and are awarded 3 points. I fly over and repair each one with a single pass. I don't get any points, but our artillery is working again. You, in the meantime, have gone and rearmed your bombs. Seconds after the artillery is fixed, you bomb them again. +3 points again.

                          Got it now?

                            It's never worked like that. People just show up as unobscured blobs of black.
