  • This seems to only happen to me if when spotting a location for my reinforcement I don't choose a place and back out from using the binoculars. Or if while using the binoculars I receive some damage (bullet or explosion). Only way to work around it I've found is to die, then try to call in my reinforcement again. Hope it helps!

  • PC as well,
    Happens about once to every eight times I use the binoculars to call in a V1 or a supply pod.
    You have to cycle through another weapon and pull up the binoculars again to clear the bug.
