Summarize your bug Unable to Set Squad Objective After Spawning In Vehicle (Squad Conquest)
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? See my details below.
What happens when the bug occurs? Commo Rose appears and I can mouse over an flag objective, but it does not set.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to set flag objectives normally

Two times, at the start of a round of Squad Conquest, I spawned into a tank (don't remember the exact vehicle name) as squad leader.  I pulled up the large map (M) to prepare myself for when the round started so I could set an appropriate objective.  When the round began, I used the Commo Rose to try and set an objective flag (didn't matter if it was A, B, or C) but it was unresponsive.

During the next life, or perhaps after I exited the vehicle, I was able to set squad objectives again.

I'm unsure if this happens in other game modes as well.

  • Some more testing last night (Squad Conquest) and it doesn't matter if you spawn into the game in a vehicle or not. At the start of every round (after map loads) when you spawn in as Squad Leader and try to set an objective, there seems to be a 30-60 second delay before it actually registers your attempt to set an objective.

    I will try more game modes and report back.
  • It happens 80% of the time for me in Conquest ans Squad Conquest.
    If I spawn as Squad Leader, as long as the flags are still neutral, I can't assign them as objectives.
    Definitely introduced in the Lightning Strikes update.
