BF2S Forums "You were killed"... but I ain't dead

Another entry for the "Glitches, Errors, and just plain crappy programming by EA" List.

Does it add to your death count?

no

one of my clan mates had the same thing happen to him.

you weren't just revived?

Happened to me at least 5 times in BF2 in the past 3 days...

I was commander every time and like every ten minutes, I killed someone. Or teamkilled.

ive taken programming courses before, and it was no easy task to create the simple programs i made, let alone something as complex as this.

for instance, you try coding a game with probably hundreds of thousands of lines of code that the syntax has to be perfect along with any algorithms and detections.

Thank you for opening our eyes - I'm sure I speak for all my fellow readers when I solemnly pledge never to indirectly criticize any software bug ever again. In fact, I'm never going to criticize anyone for making any mistakes on any job they are paid to do, ever, because being perfect is just plain hard.

good point
but every other PC game i play doesn't glitch half as much as this does (including others by EA)
so everyone else can do it and make it work, they are paid the same amount
what the hell are dice playing at?!

Has been there since bf2.

ye happened hundreds of times ( might exaggerated a bit ) nothing new you just need to be more of a geek and play more to see it happen more often.

Edit: I have no idea why i quoted you might be cause the clock is 3 hours past/after ( never figured out which is which ) midnight....

You quoted me cos it made your post that much cooler.

Ahh it makes much more sense now thanks for poining out i felt so lost there for a while. But you might be right i don´t have the time right now to go through my brain and try to understand what i do, I think we should end this and say you´re cool nad that i "dig" you before i make my brain explode have +1

I maybe wrong, but didn't BF2 have the same issue before.  That or this was already posted for 2142, I do not remember correctly.
