BF2S Forums Has this happened to anyone else?

wow thats a really tricky asshole

never happend and if someone says bail out i normally do it, and another tip if they dont bail at once just stay there whey will hop out eventually.

anyway soorry to hear that, hopefully it wont get a costum for smacktards.

I've never heard of that...Thats a great idea though...better keep this hush, hush..

That is sneaky!  Wow.  Risky too.  "Get out" still works best, I agree with mort.

unfortunalty it's often the case that good pilots think they have the divine right to kill teammates in order to set things up the way they like.  It's not the first time I've seen it, but this was definitly the most cultured attack, and the most annoying because it cost ME points, gonna C4 the chopper before I get in next time.....just in case...lol

Absolutely...what good is it if the players in the vehicle die and then you're left with an empty vehicle that no one can get to and use!  I guess they do respawn after awhile, but it seems to take so long! Good call gvp.

A word of caution about C4ing the chopper, if your pilot turns out to be a normal player and you crash or get taken out, the C4 will go off, potentially TKing your mate!

This is a nasty exploit though.. the stuff people come up with..

The Jeep exploit could be stopped by pretending that you were still in it, even though you just excited the jeep. This would last a few seconds or until another person got into the jeep.
Making the jeep stop as soon as you get out is not an option i think.

Sadly all these fixes will hurt the serverperformance, so its a tradeoff between fixes and serverperformance.

If you want to report these exploits i recommend using the Support page on EA.com, and hope that EA will consider fixing the exploit.

Nice tip

That might work. Though I often use jeeps/FAV to clear a path through enemy and also friendly mines. I go full speed at them and then bail out letting the jeep roll into the mines and explode. Instant path through mines for Tank or APC or whomever. Of course I only do this when I'm not an Engineer. Of course if you add that timer to the exit function this means you can do the same tactic against the enemy and get kills for it. After all it's only fair.

i was once playin in a squad and they were friends but i was in the gunner seat of the chopper but the other guy wanted to fly with him. so i told him to drop me at the jet and then we dominated the airspace

what wonders me is that some ppl are just unwilling to talk to the others in any way, instead they tk, jeep exploit and now out-of-bounce you only cause of their lack of communication skills

thats kinda bs what they are doing.  The sad thing is I have had people do that stuff to me, meanwhile I am an awesome gunner.  Not so good in the american chopper, I don't quite have a feel for the machine gun hitting ground targets yet.  I am getting better.  But im rather good with the guided missle, I rarely over heat with the gun and yet I barely ever stop shooting.  I get annoyed when a guy yells get out, and they are like 1-10 and the gunner is like 7-10.  Whenever my friend and I go out I usually score at least 100 points per map.

I have found some people will just don't get the hint "BAIL-OUT"!

Dilly, you might be a great gunner, but who knows this? If a  player were to join my Squad and type back to me saying they can handle the job, I would give that person a chance. Maybe better communications would help solve this issue?


I like flying both types of heli's and Bombers, but if you don't have someone (s) that know how to use the rockets/guns/wrenches,ect., your UCKED! Plus having a clanmate who your talking to via Ventrio help give heads up as well.

I have a number of clanmates that I like gunning for me (and visa/versa) and as a well oiled team, we do very well. If another player jumps in and is asked nicely to remove him/herself for the heli, what more can you do.

I like the Out of Bounds idea!

I some what agree with what your saying Sharken, it would be nice if people were a little more grown up about taking turns, but I think thats a little more than we can hope for.

The way I see it is everyone that wants a chance to fly should have a chance. If you are the one that gets to a plane first at the begaining of a map, you fly, right? When you crash and someone is there waiting for the next plane to spawn, do you act like an asshats and A. Line up hoping to catch the next spawn or B. Do you uckoff to do someting else?

I have seen the same no-flying AH steal a plane out from under a person time in time out only to crash it min's after take-off. In my opinon this person should find an empty server to practice on and leave the flying to those who can keep it in the air for at least 1/4 of a map!

I have a freind who loves to play and could care less about stats, ribbons, ect. and has gotten so tired of people hogging up plane and helo's, he has resorted to placing a stick or two of C4 on the chassis or just plain shooting the guys in the face.
