Ok, well I know this may sound crazy, but this is seriously needed to be checked out.

What a friend and I encountered, was that if the vehicles tires/treads get stuck. Which they sometimes do, I'm assuming that everyone knows how to fix it? the driver gets out then back in. Well....... That happened today on kashan 64_gpm. We were in a tank battle and got hit, then the treads got stuck inside the vehicle. I thought it was attributed from being struck and so I was still pressing the "s" key to back-up. I then got out to check the damage. as did my gunner. and to our surprise the tank started to roll backwards (I thought it was b/c we were on a downwards slope, but then it started to go up a hill, just like someone was driving it.

We had to chase it all over the map untill it finally stopped after going out of bounds and exploding.



This same thing happened with a BMP (the tank was a T-90). We got hit , i got out to survey the damage, our tread was missing like it should've been. but the BMP started to go forwards just like the tank, like someone was driving it. Due to the lack of a side tread it kept going in circles which I thought was funny until it ran over my gunner. The funy thing is, that the tanks blew it up, but the shell of the vehicles kept moving forwards in a circle for about 4 minutes as the tanks and bradely's kept firing at it thinking it was alive.

Then the shell blew up, as it normally would.



Any idea why this happened. Unfortunately I do not have any pictures or video as the server didn't have battlerecorder and pictures wouldn't have shown anything other than a BMP and tank sitting there.


Please fix this glitch'

BMP-3 is a known issue which we cant fix, because its an EA asste.

the T-90 is new for me...

Nice music for the T90 Vid

This has happened to me and an M1A2. Was soo funny I couldn't stop laughing and lost my tank haha.
Only happened once ever though.

I've seen it happen with all sort of vehicles.

we got a angry message from teh CO in PRT Campaign 6 because som1 had made all the warriors and C2s on Al Kufrah go in circles on the training server

think of it this way the driver got killed and he layed down on the reverse gear

Well I thought teh BMP was hillarious b/c we distracted a Abrams and Bradely while our tank came from behind and blew them up. But should it still do that as teh shell of teh vehicle?

Yea, I had a run in with a ghost tank. Luckily we had a log truck nearby and I pulled in behind it to slow it down and the gunner/driver got in, dropped a crate and we were good to go!

yeah, probably

Personally seen almost every vehicle do it in their main spawns, just saw strykers on Karbala doing it the other day, i think its just how it spawns, that it sometimes spawns a bit in the ground.

This wasn't when it spawned, it was in teh middle of Kashan

Thats exactly what happened, although there was shooting and crossfire and people getting run over. No idea who got the kills
