Beacon Glitch!!

**EliteAcer** · 09-04-07, 02:30 AM

Ok so we were playing Liberation of Leipzig, I podded up the roof and dropped a beacon..... I got shot .... couldn't spawn on beacon.

Got up on the higher part of the roof dropped a beacon .... died couldn't spawn.

Got up there a 3rd time.... this time i noticed my 1st two beacons were still there!!!!!

Cerbere Landing, i dropped a beacon in the back base couldn't spawn on it, i changed squads and later Angel, found it was still there :-(

I was also playing another map and i dropped a beacon and it started moving all over the map!!!! When i spawned on it i was spawning on another member of my squad!

I think the beacons hate me!!!!

Has there been some sort of update ive been noticing allot of changes and buggyness.

yeah there were a few times in the past where all of a sudden the green dot became an enemy on the other team, someone other than my squad leader, the enemy walker...

*grumble*

Make sure you didn't place your beacon under something and make sure it is in a accessible spot.

They were fully accessible on the roof, when i got up there the 3rd time. The 1st 2 beacons were fully intact. Now you can't drop another beacon unless the 1st one is destroyed. Somehow i had 3 beacons (only 1 could be spawned on)

My beacons have just been whack for the past few days.

I was having some weird stuff happen with them too. I placed a beacon on the top of Central dock on Port Bavaria and when my guys spawned on it they ended up by the Military Outpost. There was no surfing or anything like that. Just came straight down. When I spawned on it a few minutes later I came down at Central Dock. Maybe it's just something weird with NS.

I guess it is a growing trend. I placed a beacon on the enemy titan that the defenders destroyed post haste.

However, for the rest of the round, i was not allowed to deploy a beacon. It was acting as if I still had one in the wild somewhere.

On a side note, playing on the EA forums last night, apparently you can't "search" the forums anymore

I'll look into it more later. If so, that blows, because I can only go backwards maybe 10 pages before i get frustrated.

Theres nothing wrong with the beacons. It's all in your heads. They certainly aren't mobilizing their forces to start their own battles against us or anything. But just to be sure, next time you deploy a beacon, shake your mouse side to side rapidly. This should cause anything alive within your beacon to become thoroughly disconcerted and should disrupt their coordinated sabotage of our battles. Or you can submit to the great beacon god and beg his mercy and forgiveness for you past sins against his people. How many beacons have you mistreated I wonder? They have feelings too!!! Ever think of that!!!!

I've seen a silly beacon bug rear its ahead again lately.

It's the one where your squad leader places a beacon, and thereafter, whenever you spawn on the green dot, its an ENEMY squad leader.

I hate that one, and I've seen it too many times. Funny thing is, it has only ever happened to me on Fall of Berlin.
