RESOLVED - Team Damage Bug

If an APC is destroyed and you shoot the wreckage it says, TEAM VEHICLE DAMAGE and you lose points.... Is it supposed to? Thought it was strange as they're dead so it shouldn't matter....

Yeh another thing i noticed (not to often) is when you teamkill a vehicle and the wreckages stays there anything that touches it until it disapears keeps giving you minus points, these minus points from 1 wreckage have cost me at least 6 extra minus points. I'm sure if you check people on ABR for gloryhoundz or something you will see an increase in team vehicle damages.

Agreed! Sometimes you just need to finish off a disabled friendly vehicle to get it out of the way. It really shouldn't count as friendly fire unless that vehicle is occupied.

This is a known problem, and it will be looked into more if time allows. The problem is that the game treats the wreck as part of the main vehicle, so the vehicle still belongs to the team and that transfers down to the wreck.

yes but if you have a wreck blocking a road you dont have much choice. And who cares about points anyways? just shoot the thing!

even if you shoot the thing doesnt mean it will necessarilly go away.

like rhino said- points dont matter one bit. I know lots of peopel liek to be at the top of the list every game, but its not that important. Death to the laggy system that is ABR!

you guys seem to miss the point of ABR and the point system and the strive to be first everyround.

If there is no reason to be first or strive to do better than everyone plays for themselves and not the team. If you see I make first almost everytime but I play for my team. I am always the medic sticking his neck into enemy fire to get someone revived. or running across a map to get my teammates back up.

no point system no incentive to play as a team.

I dissagree, if you play as a team to over come a common objection then you win as a team... not as a player.

ok to us that work as team players that is true but what is the incentive to make the noobs or new players work as a team?

If you dont get points for giving ammo, then what makes the support want to give out ammo? I have a hard time getting people to give out ammo as it is or medics to revive you rather than run by you.

no it will go away, after 1 or 2 sabot rounds they will blow up. wrecks have helph just like a normal tank reason why you get team vechial DAMAGE.

I disagree. The point system mainly makes people think about themselfs, and not as the team. With no point system you get more teamwork.

Ive seen yourself dedmon go off lone wolf on the GHz server before when you have been in my squad and ive been telling my squad to move over to flank and most follow me.

Please stay on topic...I don't wish to have to lock the topic because of an ABR pros and cons discussion. This is a BUG forum.

I will post this in the testers forums and see what we can do.

Played SAK2 and this BUG really annoyed me - cannot wait for a fix

Guys, it seems there's nothing we can do regarding this. This is the official word on the matter from [R-DEV]eggman:

team damage we can't fix it's a BF2 engine issue that I think they never considered wrecks being left around for as long as we leave them (wrecks are cool for dynamic cover and that feeling of havoc having been wreaked).

As it's a BF2 related issue, this thread will be locked.
