I don't think they can fix it, the only way to stop it is to stop people changing teams.

Yup, i was annoyed when i PKM'ed some dude to peices , only to hear "check your fire!"

Its annoying, like someone else said, do we really expect it to be fixed by these incompetent fools?

NO CHANCE

I just figured it out. "Check your fire". I'ts not a bug, it's a feature!

All this time we thought it was a problem in the code, but it's really a realism mechanic. You know, a simulation of the fog of war... or something. Um..

Maybe not.

Never mind.

You know, I'm no coder but I have been in the BF series from the start.
Any coders out there can tell me if this makes sense.
It was said that what causes this (Keep in mind I'm taking this from memory only) is when someone switches teams something in the switch is incomplete. You are on the other team but the server reports to your teammates that you are an enemy.
Now, since teamswitches don't happen that often during a game, would it not be possible to put some kind of "check" or checksum" (I'm not sure of the programming term) that when a team switch is initiated (either manually or Auto) it cannot complete until this "checksum" is verified by the server.

Does this make sense?
Lag Free? (Or minimal)

^ its most likely not to be that simply sloppy coding can mean that what you think is an obvious fault in an obvious bit of code is actually being effected by some piece of other code in a completely seperate part of the coding.

they obviously havn't sorted it then :-/
