A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

[jayhigh]

ok, I am defend a flag.
I am at a flag, but enemy armor and hostiles try to take the flag.
So I am trying to elminate troops.
Enemy armor ends up neutralizing the flag, so then I get into the flag radius to prevent enemy to take the flag, and I would expect to wait until he comes out of the armored vehicle to try to take out troops.....

BUT NO!!!
THIS STUPID PATCH allows the enemy to take the flag, enven though I am in the flag radius, clearly defending IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

has this happened to you?

Maybe, just maybe there are more than 1 other enemy, I have always thought that more enemies would cap the flag even if you are defending the area...

Has not happened to me. When they neutralize and I reach the flag cap radius, the capture bar stops moving. Hence, I stopped the enemy cap.

If there is one infrantry from each team on the flag, the flag will not move in any single direction. However, if there are two from one team, and one from the other, it will move in the direction of the first team, at the same speed as if there was only one person there.

I believe this has been an issue since the game was released, no? You could be in the flag radius and a full blackhawk was able to swoop in and capture the flag in a matter of seconds. After the flag-capping-in-a-vehicle was changed I never really paid attention. Has some flip-flopping occured (which would not at all surprise me given EA's track record with patches for this game)?

It's still only one person can cap a flag when in a vehicle no matter how many people are in it.

The greater number of people from a team cap the flag.

Re: A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

yes, i have confirmed that multiple teammates can take down a flag fast even with a single enemy within radius.

useful when the enemys hiding with a pkm somewhere

well before the patch, you are right....
now it just totally disregard that anyone is around except for the person who starts capping the flag..

EA..us suk, but i play this game anyway..

that has not changed..the more people to cap the flag, the faster it is capped..my arguement, is that anyone that is defending the flag, should stop the flag being capped by the other team, regardless if there is 1,2-10 people trying to cap the flag.

If you are outnumber than you will not be able to defend. The majority wins

OK..that is fine..but as long as this is legitimate...I THINK THAT THIS IS A BUG!

if anything someone preventing the flag means that there is some one around to hunt down so that you can make sure the flag perimeter is clear.

Re: A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

it isnt a bug.

want a bug? fire the grenade launcher. remember when it was supposed to bounce?

works good as ever, except trajectory is all glitchy now.

also, sraws disappear and invincible claymores ruin urban maps.

really, there are like 10 important existent glitches, and you focus on one that isnt even a glitch! for shame!

Re: A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

This has always been there, just wait for the tank to go then retake the flag.

Re: A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

I believe that a full vechicle only adds upto 2 people regardless of how many more are in it.

e.g. a full blackhawk (6 people) lands and the flag will move as if there are just two players within the radius, if 4 get out for a couple of seconds the flag will go up almost instantly as now will all count (as long there are no enemy about to cancel the effect). They can all get back in and fly to the next.

I think this has been the same from the start?

YOU ARE WRONG..
IT IS A BUG..prior to 1.2, me defending a flag means that i am preventing the opposing force to take the flag, and the only way to cap it is to kill me and anyone on my side around the flag radius. NOT so on 1.2

the noob tube sux...still blows up at the floor even at close range.

Re: A Legit 1.21 Bug I Hate

A team can still capture a flag if there are enemies defending that flag; they just need more friendlies in the flag vicinity than the enemy has there. It's always been that way.
