Projectiles bugged after death

Hello,

I'm facing a disturbing problem.

I play a lot with projectiles like grenade modules and throwing knives.

The problem i have is that these projectiles become negated when i die.

Taking the throwing knives example, there are so many times i could score a draw with an opponent. The knife is thrown to the enemy, he shoots me with bullets, i die while the knife is flying and the enemy goes out unscathed. I can even see the knife stuck on the enemy's head sometimes with the icon as if ready to be picked up, just like if the enemy soldier was decor, like if i hit a moving rock with it.

It is very annoying, it feels like the game doesn't want me to score. It also prevents me many times from being ressed because the unscathed enemy may shoot an incoming medic.

Also with experience i found the same problem with modular grenade launchers. Same thing enemy wins instead of a well due draw.

Please fix this.

    I think this is something that happens with the grenades too.
    If you die within X milliseconds after throwing these things, they will either not do anything or not give you kill credit.

    It's a game mechanic introduced in past titles to prevent excessive kill trading. The knife is probably affected hardest due to it's much slower velocity speed than bullets.

  • Hello, i am glad Ea staff noticed my message. I will try to make a recording but i am not well versed in making videos.

    I'll come back here when i am done. If you have no news in 2 weeks maybe i'll have forgotten then.

    But i will work on making a recording ASAP, let's see if i manage making a useful video.

    Okay so i bought a video software and I have this video but i must say it is not obvious on this one.

    I think it can be hard for me to do it midair on demand with my current player skills but i will try later if i have the time.

    It kind of looks like i drop it but i can say i released mouse button like 0.5 to 1 second before being killed.

    I hope it serves some purpose.

    At least it kinds of explains what i mean, although i could have a better example.

    @EA_Atic Really?

    I was with @Oskool_007 on this till I saw this post as that is what I also assumed, that it was a carry over from previous games.
  • @killlluaaa Meanwhile they completely ignore the broken 3rd person aiming on the tanks with detailed videos showing them the issue.
