No squad - loose ability to drive vehicle

Post by Airsoft »

So i was practicing flying on local server, when i accidently left squad, then the message saying i need to be in a squad to operate in this vehicle position, all the controls lock up same like having a rifleman in the pilots seat. Somehow this can be in issue if you accidently left squad or kicked from squad, causing the vehicle crash.

Hmm I thought the only requirement was that you have a pilot kit?

The problem that arises...

Post by Red6Tango »

Is that if someone is being a jerk and they want to TK without the penalties they simply kick you from their squad while you are operating the vehicle. I've seen it a few times now and it's always being done by vanilla groups "testing the waters" in PR. Some of those muppets are shoving away quality players by manipulating the glitch/feature/bug before they lose interest and go back to regular bf2.

...It is not a big issue, just join a proper squad or create one by yourself to prevent such from happening.
It really come down to what he said. Nothing more annoying then when someone joins a squad just to get a kit. I'm not saying thats what you did but thats why its there. Understand it, use it, teach it.

Nothing more annoying than when you join a squad (the last one not full) to get some team-work, and then you're kick with some lame excuse like: "Sorry, nothing personal, need room for clan-member".

And it's not even their server! One thing is that you're left alone without a squad, another thing is that it's going to cost you your life!

It sounds like a bug to me, or a feature with a very nasty side-effect that should be reconsidered!

Just my 2 cents,

What I hate is flying the attack heli, already with a 20 min respawn and getting kicked by some tard with no voip for no reason losing an asset.

-Do you guys even read the posts?

1. He was practicing on a local server.
2. He accidentally resigned from his squad.

-Now, it's a feature and not a bug. Yes, it can in some instances be abused but it usually works well.
