I'm sure you all know what it is, and your probably all bitchy about another Post about it... so sorry but i thought i would just ask/tell you guys this, since its new to me...

The Usual red tag bug is normal, enemy tag with the your teams Uniform and talks the other team and so on..

But today.. i was playing Wake, and a sniper spawned on me, with a red tag bug, i shot him and i got a teamkill, i hestated to shoot him, but did anyways since the Ghile suits aren't that different.. anyways, it turned out he could spawn on me, and he could talk in my Squads VOIP, which is weird cause this has never happened to me before, anyone else had this happen.

PS sorry for Re-post if this has be Talked about before..

That's pretty wierd. Pretty hardcore red tag bugging there.

One time there was a guy who appeared to be on our team (including the score list, but he couldn't join our squads) and had the same player skin as our team, but he had a red tag and when I first saw it, me being the smart little bitch I am, didn't shoot because he had the same skin/model and I've never seen that get bugged. Well, turns out he was on the other team and after he killed me once I got the message and saw him as an enemy from then on.

I had a guy spawn in my tank with the red name bug. It even had a red square in the gunner's position.

I also have gotten the blue tag bug, very annoying. But if you play in squads, it isn't that bad as you can locate the enemy for your squadmembers and they will kill him.

What I find strange about the red name tag bug: if he is driving the jeep/tank, one can STILL join that vehicle. You can revive him, heal him and resupply him.
So that has to mean that he is on your team, but damn, why does his name appear RED, all he does is in favor of your team, so if you know in which team he is, and on which team I am, how hard is it to put: color = blue.
