[0917] Vehical CTD

Post by -Prowler- »

Today on TG, playing on Kashan all the players in vehicals suddenly crashed. We had 2 BTR's and 3 tanks suddenly unmanned and sitting on the battlefield. I'm unsure how to reproduce, as I'm not quite sure what might have happened. It could have been the fault of the server for all I know, thought I should report it just in case.

They start with Jets and work their way down the asset list.

I had this happen to me too on various occasions and i'm a supporting member on TG. It looks totally random, both the driver and gunner crashes to desktop at the same time. It happened in a tank on kashan, a btr on yamalia and muttrah and a warrior on fools road. I never saw a whole squad ctd so far, only the crew of one vehicle.

Nope, I'm not a supporting member atm on TG and was flying a havoc when this happened, each team went down to about 20 people and then some of them slowly rejoined back to recover all of the scattered vehicles. I have also noticed though that most often time for a CTD is when crewing a vehicle and usually both crewmembers will ctd and leave the vehicle stranded or failling to its death.

Except it kills the whole crew and incinerates the remains.

Somehow I can't help but think it is punkbuster's fault :P

Yeah, I'm not sure what it is caused by but it often happens to entire squads so I have an idea that it might be something they are near that they can hear or see that causes the crash. Doesn't happen too often and I've never been a victim so I guess the BFR would need to be reviewed to see if anything was going on at the time.

LOL, that was great. Made me smile, even :P .


But this has happened to me several times. Just recently( not TG I don't think..) I was driving a T72 tank into South Bunker on Kashan, with my gunner Ruski. We both CTD, leaving a perfectly fine tank in a hot zone. I've also seen most of a squad CTD, and the one guy who died beforehand and was at main base did not. IT seems to happen in a small area, which causes everyone in the proximity to crash.

my 2 cents.
