Since the new patch I am killed by soldiers with blue tag names, is EA aware of that and can't there anything be done? They could ban the colorcodes for blue and red..
Now  I see someone with a blue tagname running at me and he shoots me, it's impossible to see directly it's someone from the enemy. This is serious and makes the gameplay totaly worthless...

Another thing; when you drive on a friendly landmine or a jeep or tank hits you without the intention to do it,
DO NOT PUNISH for teamkill. It has been more common that regardless the situation everyone just hit the YES button for punish, I'm almost do it now myself because anyone does this... and i'm talking about 98% of the players...
If you drive over a landmine, well sorry, but they weren't ment for you, keep that in mind.
That's probably the reason no one dares to lay mines and that's pitty because they are a good
defence against tanks.

BF2 is a wonderfull game, don't mess it up with hacks, useless punishes and things like shooting at a helikopter because you weren't in...that's just sad.

Keep it fun.

I've had this happen last night, I looked at the person and he had a blue nametag, but the uniform was lighter, by that time I was dead.

I wonder why EA/Punkbuster let their games messed up that way, it realy sucks.
I don't like to play anymore this way if this doesn't get fixed asap, and I won't be
the only one...

It happens a lot, it's the 'colour glitch'.... there's nothing you can do, because if you see RED and you shoot it (rightly so), and you get a TK, then it's upsetting. If you then see another RED and you wait, he shoots you because he can't believe you've not shot him (get it), equally upsetting .

This forum is peppered with threads about colour glitches and Tks.... have a look through them, you're not alone

yea i would have to agree with the TK issues , most  of the time you have prepubesent dork on the game . he gets mad and tags your ass with a punish , just cause he was driving a humvee and you were driving a tank .
guess what ? LOL, your gonna lose when you run into a tank with a jeep
as well i think they should just  do away with the TK punish player option and just be a server side /EA punish 1 point rule .
and put a mandatory kick removal of a player that has like 5 or 6 tk's in less than 5 mins or so
that way you dont have these TK fuksticks coming in there and try to ruin it

that way it takes care alot of it   on that issue

1 good thing about the the blue/red nametags.
I whas playing a round while some guy got a blue nametag, after learning the hard way I knew this was indeed a foe. But I could see his name everywhere on the screen, even on the mini map! It sorta whas like a map hack for me

I agree. I expected better management with the TK in the 1.03 patch
I realy hope they change it in some way, I also think it was a good idea intentionaly,
they couldn't know almost anyone punish their own teams...

Good point! Didn't know that, if I see this again I will watch the minimap
and hunt him down like a rabbit :-)

I try to shoot at uniforms other than colors, to avoid the color glitch, but heck, I get moved to the other side so often I can't keep track of what uniform to shoot!

That's a good point, because it's usually at that time when the colour glitch happens..... and if you're playing on a server that changes you, each and every bloody time you die, it doesn't take long before you have no idea what you are, let alone who you are .... but, the burning questions are, can they fix it, will they fix it.

Same thing just happened to me today. I started shooting at a red-tagged soldier when I realized he wasn't an enemy (see 1st screenie below). But here's a weird thing, when I hit 'tab' later on, I saw that he was listed on the OTHER team (2nd screenie). Weird! I asked if other players were experiencing the same thing and many said yes. I don't think team auto-balance threw him over either. Whenever the tag-switch happens to me, it occurs on really laggy servers, so that might be the common factor.

This server was really horrible, the server was kicking ppl. w/ a ping of ~50 (1st screenie) but you can see in the 2nd screenie the pings were all pretty good.
