On which server did this happen? Any server really.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 11/16/21 19:48 (Doesn't really matter.)
Summarize your bug I've been playing in breakthrough gamemode on renewal with an EBAA Wildcat that had a 40mm attached. While I've been shooting the enemies, I see that small drone that Casper has as his gadget fly up to my EBAA and after he has been touching it for around 4 seconds, my EBAA and the drone blows up.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Get someone drive an EBAA. 2. Get them to stand still. 3. Have a player from the opposite team use Casper as his operator. 4. Have the player use the drone. 5. Have the drone fly into the EBAA.
What happens when the bug occurs? The EBAA blows up. (Note, I have no idea whether that only EBAA that can blow up, or any other vehicles.
What should be happening instead? Only the drone should blow up instead of both the EBAA and the drone blowing up.
Nothing to put into the compose section.
Doesn't sound like a bug. People have been putting C4 on their drones and using it to blow up armoured vehicles.
The reason it hovered for 4 seconds by your vehicle is because the person had to fly the drone and then switch to C4 remote.
IMO, this requires quite a bit of skill to pull off and should be allowed. The drone has to be very close to the vehicle and the vehicle has to be stationary for it to work.
If you are in a vehicle, you can very easily counter this by moving your vehicle or shooting the drone.
Shooting those drones in a tank is pretty impossible
this is from a player being sneaky and placing C5 on the drone and getting you fair and square haha. the drones themselves will not blow up enemy vehicles. but with the tactic of placing C5 on them and then flying them over they can. I feel this should be allowed in the game because it is indeed not that easy to pull off and the vehicles can just as easily drive away and are very hard to catch with a drone.
I have nothing against putting C5 on the drones, that's fine since armored vehicles are a big issue sometimes for infantry.
My issue was that the drone blew up without it, like someone just deployed it and already starts flying without attaching anything to it.
Could this be due to broken collision or eh? Since if you drive into some transport, your vehicle gets damaged. It could be the same thing for drones.
This was dis-allowed in BF4 for a reason.
There is no skill in siting in a bush and C5-Droning a tank without any risk. And driving away is not always possible since drone is almost overhead and you cant spot it before its too late. My tank has been blown up even when it has moved away also.
C5 should not stick to drones.
They can explode by themselves, I literally just got exploded once again.
Here's an image if you do not believe me.
Sometimes I get the message that I was killed by drone and sometimes by c5, so maybe drone can really kill vehicle by itself.
