What has happened to the mortar?

When you deploy the mortar for the first time, all you get is the handheld device onscreen and the reload advice! Eventually the mortar will spawn and when you deploy the mortar, it places you into the fire position!  Unless you are a complete moron who wants to give away his position on the mini map, you don't want to stand next to your mortar when you start letting loose, you want to find cover!  Sometimes the mortar will be ready to fire, other times you just get the reload advice on screen and you are unable to fire any rounds off, even though you haven't fired a single volley!  As it is, the mortar is way under-powered and now turning into a proper turkey that no-one can use!

  • Hi @saracen3145 and welcome to Answer HQ.

    The mortar was indeed reworked during the latest patch to have an initial timer for deployment.

    I havn't experienced any bugs with there not being ammo in it when placed.

    Anyways, since there seems to be nothing the community can help with in this instance and this is feedback, please post it on the Battlelog forums where it belongs so the developers can see it 🙂 Answer HQ is community based support where gamers help fellow gamers and we sadly don't have any direct influence over gameplay decisions.

    You probably clicked the link named "technical help" - it's a quite common mistake so no worries 🙂
