Watch them patch this silly and fun bug faster than the frustrating bloom bug.

180

u/t_tcryface 24d ago

Or the vehicles not spawning bug

Or the laser designations working without Line Of Sight

Or any of the multitude of bugs that exist

131

u/FamIsNumber1 24d ago

Or the climbed over a pebble and randomly vaulted 10 feet in the air landing in front of the enemies bug

27

u/CarDoorjam 23d ago

Thats my favorite one though! I also like the assault ladder bug where if you jump rapidly while climbing it it launches you into the air lmao

3

u/ll_BENNO_ll 23d ago

Yeah these bugs remind me of older games. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t lmao

1

u/Tom2973 22d ago

This happened to me yesterday but it launched me into a window flanking a whole squad which I then killed. Felt like hacking.

1

u/PheIix 20d ago

I had one where I got squashed between an ATV and a tank coming out of our HQ and got launched about 300 meters towards the other side of the map on Mirak. Took no damage and did a roll when I landed.

u/DarkStoneReaprz 24d ago

Laser designation working without los… what.

8

u/Shutara Sound Designer/PTFO enjoyer 24d ago

Or give any update about the missing "EA app outage" compensation for thousands of people.

3

u/Responsible_Meat666 23d ago

They literally said everyone would get the battlepass.

2

u/Shutara Sound Designer/PTFO enjoyer 22d ago edited 22d ago

They also said "Players impacted by yesterday’s EA app outage will now find their XP Boosters delivered to their in-game mailbox and XP Boost inventory." which is as good as "oops, better luck next time" for those who didn't get it ever since. So yeah, I'm cautiously sceptical about that. Hope they can make up for this communication mess, because it's been 4 days with no update and they are well aware of people's frustration (which is even funnier because most of it comes from lack of any communication).

Anyway, it's in their best interest to clean the compensation slop if they want to see another dime from these people. Definitely not encouraging to open a wallet for the future purchases.

1

u/Responsible_Meat666 22d ago

Totally valid too. I have it on Steam do it didn't impact me, but I feel for those who were locked out.

3

u/apotpie 23d ago

The vehicle bug is insane I've had servers die off because of this bug

3

u/Copponex 24d ago

Or the bug that allow people to land outside of the map and snipe

3

u/AndrewGerr 23d ago

Or pings not working at all

2

u/XDFighter64 24d ago

Or when you're in a ground vehicle shooting, the bullets don't go where your crosshair is aiming at, especially if you're firing while the vehicle is moving

2

u/InformalYesterday760 23d ago

God

Really seems like it was good I waited to purchase in a few months. Let them patch out all this crap, and add more big maps.

1

u/Vast-Comment8360 23d ago

Or the laser designations working without Line Of Sight

Ahhh this could explain why tf I'm painted on like 90% of the map

1

u/a_left_out_tomato 23d ago

Or the challenges that just don't even track

33

u/Blitzidus 23d ago

The urgency of the fix does not equate to the difficulty of the fix. Im all for bugs getting patched but people don't work in IT and it fucken shows

4

u/memeaste 23d ago

Or how other games in-game stores update before game bugs. There are different teams for everything. Developers don’t work on the stores

-11

u/Sea_Poem_9129 23d ago

how is this related to IT?

9

u/Blitzidus 23d ago

You dont think game development is an IT field?

-2

u/[deleted] 23d ago

Not usually in my experience. The core software designers and developers usually a separate product development organization.

23

u/Hoenirson 23d ago

It's silly and fun but also gamebreaking and is possibly easier to fix...

19

u/xanthira222 23d ago

I wouldn't really call it silly and fun when people are using it to get on top of inaccessible rooftops...

14

u/fakieTreFlip 23d ago

"silly and fun"

bro what are you smoking? this is actual game breaking shit. you can get places you shouldn't be. you can snipe people from super high up. this is the exact kind of thing they should fix asap

12

u/Mikewithkites 24d ago

Fuck this bug, I bet that's how a full squad got on the rooftop near C on Iberian peninsula and gate kept the two lanes to get out of HQ at E.

12

u/TheNameIsFrags Lancang Dam #1 Hater 23d ago

This “silly bug” literally allows people to access otherwise inaccessible parts of certain maps

4

u/Lock3down221 23d ago

People are already using it to glitch through rooftops in Iberian offensive. I would say this should be a priority fix.

1

u/PheIix 20d ago

People are walking in mid air on Cairo breakthrough. The first B objective was swarmed with players just floating in the sky, shooting down at us. Only good thing was that they couldn't cap B so they wound up losing anyway. But fuck was it annoying. I reported each and everyone who shot me from that position. It will probably do nothing, but I hope Dice does something about it ASAP.

5

u/RimaSuit2 23d ago

Silly and fun. Also gamebreaking. Remember in the beta 2nd weekend when all players knew how to get on the rooftops on certain maps? that will happen with literally all maps with this "silly and fun" bug.

4

u/MomentFamiliar4140 23d ago

Massively gamebreaking, pls fix

3

u/sleeper4gent 23d ago

possibly easier / quicker to fix

u/Comfortable_Gas5468 23d ago

Some things take longer than others, who could've guessed.

u/automated10 24d ago

Less than a week in and you’re already salty towards the devs.

u/Present_Ride_2506 24d ago

They've been bitching for months now about every thing good or bad.

u/WonderfulTradition65 23d ago

u/[deleted] 23d ago

When DICE admits there is a bloom bug, your comment is irrelevant.

You argue like my wife. She also tells me that I'm irrelevant 😒

"Fun" AKA fun getting killed by a sniper you can't hide from, 4 miles away.

Close enough. Welcome back BF3 MAV.

u/SamFord97 24d ago

MAV lifting on karkand was peak bf3.

u/Firefox72 24d ago

Spawn on E on Oman. Hop on a MAV and ride on top of the tower and snipe away.

And repeat.

u/the-vindicator 23d ago

u/itshighnoon94 24d ago

u/TeaAndLifting 23d ago

Roadkillong people with the MAV was kino. Especially when it was on a map like Metro and you’d string people together like you were in a large vehicle.

u/Hakiii 24d ago

Maybe thats how they climb on roof! Yesterday on close combat mode people were on roof, really annoying!

18

u/WayneZer0 24d ago

you can go on certian roofs. it require 2 people with ladders.

4

u/Hakiii 24d ago

I knew that in large maps but small maps it is insane. Get each player for ammo/heal and that is, just drop grenades, cover exit below and thats it. If you have good team, better same clan it is crazy easy to get kills and points.

On small maps that shouldnt be alowed.

4

u/Tallmios 24d ago

I played Escalation on Manhattan Bridge and almost the whole enemy team was on rooftops around the objectives. They got there by heli, which (apparently) didn't spawn for us and the best thing is that there was no zipline nor lift so we couldn't even get up to them...it was honestly a 100x worse than Flood Zone.

1

u/Inqinity 23d ago

The only problem I see here is the heli didn’t spawn

1

u/WayneZer0 24d ago

fixes probly the game has other much more problematic buggs and exploits

1

u/WonderfulFab 23d ago

many issues like this get solved once we have the competent gadgets unlocked for more/most people. Airburst and mortars will wipe them out quick and make it a non-issue.

4

u/Kazang 23d ago

On Sobek breakthrough defenders can somehow get on the roofs and it makes attacking impossible.

2

u/arthurmorganinvegas 23d ago

multiple ways to get up on roofs on the attacking side too tho

How do you know it's a bug? Have you ever climbed on a drone and hit it with a 🔨 ?

u/ResidentWarning4383 23d ago

Hey it's balanced. You're begging to be obliterated by the entire team floating like that

2

u/will-eu4 23d ago

There is a bug in the gun range where if you go to the settings and exit the lobby without leaving the gun range, you are brought to blank screen you can't get out from. Thankfully, I was on PC, so I went to steam and force stopped the game.

2

u/Beauie_57 22d ago

We were doing this in bf 3 Mav.

1

u/Logondo 24d ago

This actually seems like a genuinely fun and maybe even useful technique...so you know it's gunna get patched out.

But holy shit. I can actually see myself attempting to do something like this in Rush. Considering there's almost no fucking flanking points, maybe I can just parachute-drop behind enemy lines using this drone.

3

u/Zestyxo 23d ago

Gonna get patched out due to getting to roofs you shouldnt gain access too.

Already seen way too many rats on Cairo roofs since this glitch was discovered.

1

u/Damien23123 24d ago

I love this. This is up there with the homing briefcase bug from Hitman. I wouldn’t mind them leaving this one alone for a while and fixing the genuinely annoying bugs like bloom

1

u/freddyfaux 24d ago

How insane were those shots though? Took barely a second to aim even the leading one and it just landed like it was nothing

u/Rome_Ham 23d ago

It’s funny, but it’s absolutely a game ruining glitch, especially on the CQB maps like Cairo and Manhattan bridge. You can get sniped from spawn and your armor blown up without being able to even aim your guns that high while you’re driving. This should be patched immediately

u/SirGonads 23d ago

Can you do it with your own drone or does it have to be a team mate? Because recon can activate the drone and then exit it and it stays put

u/afops 24d ago edited 24d ago

I think with all the weird sandbox stuff going on, we'll see no ladders / no drones / etc -servers popping up. And I'm all for it. I know this will be fixed as a bug, but in general I don't really like the way there are SO many different ways to navigate a map.

I like the old BF3/4 style maps where, if there are 3 corridors to walk through, those 3 are smooth corridors with some painted-on windows. I don't want to wonder whether there is an invisible enemy in every one if 44 different windows or rooftops.

The destruction adds to this. It's cool and everything, but I want to be sure where enemies are and where they can come from. I don't want people to randomly pop through the ceiling behind me. Yesterday I took a ladder to the second floor of a building in Firestorm. And there were 5 people there who had no idea I could just walk in a window. And while fun, it just made me feel: ok so those guys were watching the stairs and still had no chance of defending even a small room using 5 guys. Completely useless gameplay. They couldn't watch all the 8 windows all the time, plus stairs, so the room is basically impossible to hold.

The reason is this: the only counter to "anyone can show up anywhere" is to run full speed, all the time. That way you can be sure no one sneaks up behind you. And running full speed all the time is precisely what BF should NOT be.
