Hahaha, the new vehicle drop system is useful, but can be abused so easily!

I was just in a z-10, every time i stood still the enemy commander would drop a buggy on me the buggy gets stuck in your rotors and you have to spin like mad to get it off.

I've also been crushed while capping a flag several times already :\

Post yours!

As far as I can tell buggies drop exactly where you order them. No deviation like with a supply crate

Makes it even better

Buggydropping can be very useful at the cityflag (by the crane on Oman) if the enemy is trying to cap it.
Just drop the vehicle so it hits the crane, then the parashoot will dissapear and the car will fall down like a bomb!

I can already see the fix for the irritating sniper that is just bleow the US arty on wake. drop a vehicle in the arty, hope it doesn' blow the arty, and kill the A*hole. rea\ally, thouhg, why not just drop the vehicle on the enemy commander?

It will probably be removed again in 1.31, and 1.3 will be remembered as "patch of the falling buggies"

In one round I have managed to kill .... players .. about six of them ... F-35s (you can pretty much keep them pinned on deck) ... but my favourite was a Cobra in flight ... yes it was a fluke but damn it was funny. I'm pretty sure this feature will be gone soon ... which is a shame

Ah yes, commanders waiting for arty to reload will now drop buggies on the enemy.

im wondering if DICE really thought the vehicle drop thing through fully. they gotta know some people in Bf2 are total asshats and would pin a jet/helo with a buggy.

I don't see how it would be a big problem, except that you can drop so many so fast...

You can only drop two, after that you have to wait for them to be destroyed

Good point Kmal1. Does anyone know if it puts a symbol where a vehicle is going to be dropped on the map like it does for arty, supplies or uav?

I killed a SpecOps with a humvee I dropped right on his head,that will teach him to stay away from my arty...and that was in the first round as commander after patching,I can see a lot of crazy crashes coming our way...

My buggy-drop experience: Was playing karkand, and got gayed. Over and over and over again.

This new patch is hilarious for Warlord though. Pickup trucks, EVERYWHERE.
