>> The way you are killed with your squad and then spawn to your squad .... disorienting and a real time waster.

>> Leaderboard stats seem way behind.

>> The way the sniper kit has been dumbed down. I have all the unlocks and the thing is still swaying. What is up with that ?

>> Being able to easily get thru most enlisted ranks in a week.

>> Name tags that are too high.

>> The random problem that was apparently not fixed in BF2, where you are ranked private and your customized unlocks are not available.

>> same old problem with disconnects.

>> UAV problem where the enemy doesn't show up.

>> The "ERROR" message that shows up when trying to get to a server which is not full.

>> The great disparity in points you can rack up in Titan mode vs. Conquest mode.

>> Ineffectiveness of EMP Strike by Commander on Mech Warrior for instance.

What are some of yours ???

Swaying is negligible once you get used to it. It's the sniper unlock gun being underpowered that bothers me.

The are worse problems for example:

-Crash to desktops
-Full server disconnects
-No "join when not full" queue for server joins
-Joining a new server always makes your kit Assault by default (that rhymes)
-Game forgetting the unlocks you pick when you are customizing kit
-Rejoining after a disconnect and the server puts you on the losing team you helped fighting
-Autoswitching to your friends team, only to be insta-switched back with score penalty


I can't count how many times I've lead a squad and fought with them to victory, only to be disconnected when the opposing team has 30 tickets. After reconnecting I get put on the losing team and get a loss on record. Pathetic software engineering and oversight.

Not sure what you mean by this.

>> Leaderboard stats seem way behind.

The longest mine have been down is 10 minutes, you do have to log out and log back in a lot of the time.

>> The way the sniper kit has been dumbed down. I have all the unlocks and the thing is still swaying. What is up with that ?

To use the sniper scope stabilizer you need to press shift, it will not do it automatically.

>> The "ERROR" message that shows up when trying to get to a server which is not full.

Most likely reserved slots are in your way, or the server list isn't updated.

What are some of yours ???

You're given an option right after you rank up to choose your new unlock before joining the next game (same server, just a new game)

POOF - Crash to desktop when I hit 'choose unlock'

Red Nametag bug, and it's new bastardized little brother, the NO nametag bug.

Red diamond, which signifies an enemy, just sits there.

"Team Vehicle Damage" three times in a row, while I'm standing there, holding a pistol, on a rooftop. This happened twice now.

...and the fact that i still suck at these games.


....er - that last one may not be a bug. It may actually be me.:D

I just played Titan for the first time. I joined late and the round was nearly over and I got over 20 points in no time. I can't believe how much easier it is to gain points in Titan.

As for the gripes about similar problems from BF2, you should have expected that since you played BF2.

The "ERROR" one, thats what gets me, I usually close the game and reopen it. It works.

Be Recon in the Titan and you don't earn the points, the points earn you.

The "ERROR" one, thats what gets me, I usually close the game and reopen it. It works.

The "ERROR" message is due to you attempting to join a server with reserved slots. For example, the server list shows that there are 62/64 people on a server but there is a "2" in parentheses next to that, so it looks like 62/64(2). If you try to join this server, you'll get sent back to the server menu with a message that just says "ERROR"

ohhhh, I always thought that 62/64(2) meant 2 people were in the middle of joining the server at the time of the refresh.

Of the things mentioned, the too-high-up nametags.

Of things not mentioned, the lack of an individual server refresh button plus the way if the server is full or an ERROR occurs, the damn thing decides to refresh all its servers.

So now it seems folks are able to utilize the "private bug" and get points they all ready have all over again.....Isn't this just great.. a legit hack !!!!!
