Friendly MBTs are ramming the M142 MRAS out of bounds to steal the spawn.
It took me 20 matches just to finally grab the single M142 MRAS spawn in Conquest. The second I parked and aimed down sights, a salty teammate in a Main Battle Tank rammed me straight out of bounds until I blew up just so he could camp the next spawn. Then two friendly tanks ended up shoving each other around HQ like bumper cars.
It’s completely turned teammates against each other, and it’s 100% avoidable if DICE fixes two things:
- Disable friendly vehicle collision in HQ. Why can a friendly MBT effortlessly push a stationary allied vehicle out of bounds to force a suic*de? That’s a blatant griefing exploit.
- Bring back 1-player Solo/Co-op Conquest progression from BF2042. Right now, Official Rules Portal servers require 4 real players just to start, and Custom Portal bot lobbies strip Hardware/Mastery XP. Even when you turn crossplay off and filter down to one map in Custom Search, it still puts just enough real players in the lobby to start a toxic spawn war over a single vehicle.
I paid for the game—if I want to spend an hour shooting bots by myself just to unlock basic attachments so I’m not at a disadvantage in real matches, who does that hurt? Instead of letting players learn new hardware in peace, locking progression behind a single HQ spawn per team just breeds toxicity.
DICE needs to either add a true 1-player Solo/Co-op mode with attachment unlocks or turn off friendly ramming physics in spawn. Has anyone else been dealing with this every match since Update 2.1.2.0?
