Ability to spawn on demolished Forward Operation Base

[badmojo420]

Saw a coalition soldier, killed him, then another spawned in his place. So i killed him too. But then another. I informed my squad and went prone. I killed 10 guys before a teammate set an IED off there and they stopped spawning. So it was either a rallypoint that i couldn't see. Which is strange because we had a few people there while they were spawning. Or maybe an out of place spawn point.

So far I have seen this bug two times.

First time, I’m a Taliban Cell Leader on Operation Archer the battle has just started, my squad is defending a new cache North end of the city around Bravo 4. I see hueys dropping supplies at Alpha 1, I move my squad to the location where I seen the hueys land and we encounter small force of Americans and a Forward Operation Base. We take out the squad then I knife the radio the FOB goes down, I get an American kit to drop an incendiary grenade on the base of the FOB. Right as I’m about to cook the grenade the base disappears, I did not think about it at the time but the commander might have deleted it. As my squad is looking for kits for more incendiaries to destroy the supplies an American shoots one of my squad in the back. I turn around to find Americans spawning near the destroyed, disappeared, possibly demolished by American Commander FOB. We clear the area once again then camp the area for 3 minutes as they keep spawning, they stopped spawning so we moved out. 10 minutes later I see Americans around that position again, once again I rolled in force, this time make sure to have at least 3 members with me to kill a possibly hidden Rally Point, or attack new FOB. Once again we encountered Americans spawning out of the ground on the area of the old FOB. I jumped channels In our Team Speak(Tactical Gamer) and asked a player on the American side what kind of spawn was at A1. He told me that it was just a spawn, no icons on it. I wrote a note on a paper to report it as a bug.

My second time encountering this bug, I was an Insurgent Cell Leader Karbala we were well into the fight, someone had a badly placed FOB South East end of the city around Golf 6. I asked to Commander to demolish the FOB at G6, then for a Build Order at Foxtrot 4. He granted the F4 build order but did not demolish the G6 FOB, so I asked him again to demolish the G6 FOB and he did, I then put up a new FOB at F4 with the first build order he granted. My FOB never got fully constructed due to American soldiers and Striker over running our position. After being killed shoveling the FOB at F4 I was looking for a place to spawn that was close to that position. I noticed that the spawn circle at the old FOB at G6 was still there white with no icon. I spawned on it to test if it would let me spawn, it spawned like a normal spawn. I noted it down on a paper to report it later.

I think it’s a bug that is keeping the spawn point when the commander demolishes the FOB, or something to do with if he demolishes the FOB with a build order pending it keeps the spawn point alive. Hope this helps.

rgr, I noticed that issue as well.

We will take a look and hopefully add a server-side hotfix for it.
