I played BF2 a lot today as I had the day off of work and I saw some pretty interesting funny things.  From getting a whole server in an argument, to finding and reporting stat padders it's been nice.

Anywho, there was one thing I thought was interesting and I was wondering if anyone here has seen it before.  I was playing the 64 Player Dragon Valley map as PLA and someone was moving into our main destroying our arty.  In my never-ending quest for expert engineer badge, those yellow arty symbols lit up like Christmas trees.  When I got there, I started to repair the one closest to me.  I had just set the wrench on it and the rest of the artillery automatically respawned fresh.  I have seen this happen before, but there was one problem....

The arty I just started to fix transformed into a double arty gun of doom.  I see the newer, repaired gun in the down position like it hasn't been used, and another arty gun pointing towards the sky.  I don't remember why I didn't take a screen when they were in this position, but the point is, I didn't.  So I kept repairing.  Bad news was that it was taking two times longer to repair.  Then all of a sudden the commander fires the arty.  And it looks like so:

Yes, both cannons on that arty did fire.  I don't know if it gave off more shells where it fired because I was too far away.  But both guns showed the animation of firing.  Here's a better picture so that you can see both:

I stood next to it when it fired again, and an explosion went off making me fly very far away.  So I'm not sure what to make of this.  Anyone seen this before?

nope. Probably just a graphical glitch.

That's the commander hack. The arty is 2x powerful.

Actually it's not a graphical glitch.

I could explain why, but it's more typing than I care to do.
