On Kashan Desert today, i was playing as MEC, and my squad had a truck, and an APC to go raid the South Bunker. I was in the truck behind the APC, and the APC went to go run over a gate to open it, and I saw the gate glitch into the APC, and then sent the APC flying up about 100 yards up into the air. It crashed upside down onto the ground 4 seconds after, and our squad just sat there dumbfounded.

Anyone else experienced this?
Its a well known bug never drive over a gate shoot it.

Ramming it will send you flying like you seen.

When you get flipped you can use the 50cal /or turret to un flip you if you fiddle with it up and down should un-flipped you every time.

Thank you for the bug report.

Lol it's always quite a surprise to be happily driving along in an APC, only to look out the window and see clouds ...

To the OP - my eyesight must be baaaaaaad. I looked at your name and read 'blondeandloose'. Wishful thinking :p

This bug must stay. It is simply too awesome.



Pssst... whenever I do bunker raids at the beginning of the round, I try to do that after setting a rally right outside.

This happens most often when hitting a destroyable fence at an odd angle. Yes its funny and no its not a high priority to fix :P

Great bug if there was ever such a thing!

Now I would create a new thread but its closely related to this... how about the spinning vehicle? Its not as common as the flying bug but its still a bug none the less. Happened to the tank on Ejod after a glancing hit from the TOW hummer...

Happened to a squad I was in today, same deal, truck was following us and everything. We flew up like 200 yards though, we were airborne for a good amount of time, we flew down, hit the ground, blew up in the apc, and the truck
behind us blew up as well. We went so high, even the USA team saw us.

howcome everyone else but me finds a way to just soar up in a car with a destructable thing... a fence started to glitch into my apc when i rammed it and it broke, but it disappeared before it launched me.
