[0973] Op. Marlin - AAS flag icons
Posted: 2012-01-28 09:17
Description:
On Marlin AAS, both the right and left bank flags are attackable at the same time. However, when one flag is taken, the game gives the impression that only one other flag is in play (whilst neutral). Imagine way back when Kashan Bunker flags were both attackable at the same time. When one was taken by one team, it was not in play unless the other flag was also taken by the enemy team.
So basically, whilst we thought that Right Bank was all secure and we could shift play over to left bank, the Canadians somehow capped it even though we had no defense marker, leaving Kwalc red-faced as he moved his squad off under the impression it wasn't an issue.
Unfortunately, this one bug cost our team the round by allowing the Canadians to subsequently push onto Construction Site and cap, starting the bleed
The Construction Site flag also does not show that the flag is a bleed flag.
Steps to Reproduce:
By playing MEC and taking Right Bank before the Canadians take Left Bank, you can see that there is no defense marker on Right Bank.
Screenshots / Video:
This image does not show the problem, but does show the situation of how the flags work. At this point, the Canadians had both flags and we could attack both.
Tested On:
TG, Marlin Infantry layer.
Video Settings (if needed):
Everything is on high except for lighting. I have the bug on many maps where the country flag icon does not display above the flags, only the attack/defense icon or in some cases nothing at all other than the flag name.
