I'm starting this thread as a list of examples of PR quirks and weird shit that should be known....

Whilst playing as engineer behind enemy lines, i placed a mine in the back of an enemy Hummer, it was ment to be a nasty surprise for the enemy swine, but no, as soon as my mine hit the flat bed of the hummer.. KaaaaBoooom!

I was dead 10 feet away! I'm like "WTF" over voip and my squad mate goes.."oh yeah thats happened to me before"..(it was Clavdivs)

So i'm like damn wish i'd known that one!

--- Dont put mines on the flat bed of a US Hummer, they might spontaneously combust! ---

........hence the thread... please add your unusual PR happenings that people might like to know about.

If you park a vehicle next to a static object and you try to go between them but there's not enough space for you to fit, you will sometimes die.
Old 'nilla bug BTW.

You cant walk up 3 inch high curbs. you just get stuck on them. How stupid is that? Actually, any tiny ledge purtruding(sp?) from the ground you have to jump to get over.

Apparently Choppers are made of some kind of Alkaline metal as they seem to explode instantaneously upon contact with H2O.

If in a tank, you need to shoot some poor sap hiding inside an indestructible building, don't worry. Just pull alongside of it, and look inside. The tank faries of death will magically allow the turret to go through the wall. (you can do this with any weapon, really)

Ack! Don't tell *more* people about that, man!

The faries are always on the side of the PR mod team so beware of trusting them.

mines blow upwards. So it sounds to me as the mine fell off, the bit the point upwards, was acturly pointing towards you and when it went boom, you got the blast heeh. thats my guess anyways. you should put them under the wheel

Guess what I did speaking of tanks today! I took out the 50 cal Gunner on top right with my G3 and lmfao, I thought hey Saving private ryan scene here so I decided to get out my hand grenade down the hatch and it actually took out the main Gunner!

I can do that in mercenaries on PS2 to hijack tanks.
you pull yourself up on the barrel walk along till you get the the hatch and pop a nade in (the 50cal gunner needs to be dead)

Yeah, Im not so sure that is even possible with the BF2. Maybe your nade bounced off and the main gunner had gotten out of the tank??

So you landed on the APC in a Vodnik and it blew up and you drove on!??

Wow, sweet mate - wonder if that will still happen in 0.5?
