anyone encountered this? i was playing on a 32p Ops Clean Sweep, and I noticed the USMC commander was dropping arti shells on me but his name appeared nowhere in the list. So when the round re-commenced, i checked and it was a weird headcount. The USMC side shows a list of 9 players but the total was 16, and no matter how the numbers dwindle or go up, it was the same missing 7 but they were definitely in the game.
I've been in some matches like that as well, never grabbed any screen shots of them however. It is weird.
he kept trying to kill poor old lonely me..as i was C4-ing every single USMC that tried to cap the flag (its really lonely sitting out there defending a flag ), and my team's commander dropped a supply crate nearby so as not to give me away.. but after a while, i decided to take a boat ride across the harbour to C4 his arti guns.. i cant believe that he would waste arti shots on just one single player
As Commander, I'll take out a single player if I can. Especially if he's being sneaky like you described. Plus, you need all the kills you can get as a Commander. That's about the most points we get!
You don't get any points for kills as commander.CMDR_Dave wrote:

Yuh huh!
jep seen that to once the total number on the botom are the correct one.
people where joining and leaving server but they never showed up when i hit tab
It fixed itself when the server loaded an other map

but wasting all shells from 3 arti pieces on poor old spec-ops me while his team was getting pasted... ahh.. i guess i am "that" good.. they should give me a medal for taking hits for the team and distracting him, as he was pretty determined to nail me, and i was pretty determined to defend the flag..even my commander ordered me to stay put (wait a minute..something fishy here)..CMDR_Dave wrote:

a little bit more on this thread. @fox, the missing 7 did not even appear in the round that just ended, but i knew they were there cos once in a while their in-game conversation turned up..and their names were not on the chart. the screenshot i took was on a fresh round.. guess its just another one of those things in the game.

Guess you could always do what I have been doing as of late. Blowing up all their UAV and Radar and then getting out of the way while their artillery comes down. And then blowing up their Artillery and then going over and blowing up their UAV which they happily put another supply box down on. Refilling my C4 and then blowing it back up again. Rince Repeat. I swear many commanders seem to love giving me supply boxes and letting me blow up their commander assets before they are even working again.mikeshw wrote:

Though eventually I guess he finally got an entire squad of people to come after me for doing that. Really a shame that most of them had to die on my C4 also. Gotta love Van drivers that don't see C4 in the road.

Why do you play at all in server with 90% of the people in there has 100-300 in ping?? MAby it's a lag glich
where i live, there are no EA Ranked servers..the rest are either in Thailand (150>ping>100) or aussie internode servers (180>ping>140).. not much of a choice for me in this instance..
@kilroy.. lol.. you are pretty determined.. one SpecOps did that to me when i was commander.. i kept on shelling him, he kept on taking out my arti, i kept on repairing it by dropping supplies on it, he replenish, took out the UAV, Arti, Radar again, i repaired, shelled, etc.. he gave up after a while..

You'll see a lot more of this when Spec Ops starts to get points for destroying those things.
you betcha! and if they are giving away points for that.. i can see the queue forming to take out the commander assets..CMDR_Dave wrote:

Commander's job is going to get a lot tougher! May have to be a more interactive character when that time comes.
also, as a commander you might need to assign a couple of teammates to defend your assets in the future. no good to waste supply drops on your arty when your team needs them elsewhere...
Teamwork...huh, what a concept! I'd even say play Commander as a wrench so you can even repair them yourself! The easiest way would probably be to jump into a vehicle and just drive up to the assets and auto repair them that way. Just gotta watch out for those "sneaky" spec ops guys!B.Schuss wrote:

yeah, teamwork...I know it's a stretch, but it can be done...CMDR_Dave wrote:

Well yea. I am practicing hardcore for when the patch comes out. To be the ultimate thorn in the commanders side as well as practicing one man defense on bases because I have yet to get a reliable defense oriented squad together that's more than 2 people if I'm lucky.mikeshw wrote:

the very first thing i did when i first played the Spec-Ops kit months back was to go take out the UAV on the other side..and then i checked my score..bummer..no points awarded.. and i told myself.."gee, EA..SpecOps should get points for this.."..looks my prayers are going to be answeredkilroy0097 wrote:

i even ordered a squad to go take out the enemy SpecOps who camped at the commander assets ..no one bothered. it is so frustrating at times.
When the points come, they will listen.
Haha, i almost forgot this one.....
I got one, too.....
