Dynamite corpse bug

(Emon) #1

Has anyone noticed that it’s extremely difficult to disarm TNT if there’s a corpse over it?

I was playing as Axis in Oasis the other day, and they had three TNTs planted in the last gun. I rushed in, got two, then some other silly newbie who thought his level zero engineering skill was better than my four tried to disarm the last one. Somehow he died all of a sudden, his corpse strewn over the TNT. I tried ti disarm it but the completion meter flickered on and off! A few seconds later, boom.

I had the problem again today as Axis, again on Oasis. Only this time it was our command post. The guy had armed it just as someone blew him away, so I ran to disarm, and whoa, I couldn’t! It was like the corpse was blocking my pliers! Anyone else noticed this? Very frustrating. :banghead:

It is not a bug, it is a feature :smiley: Only good thing about it is that you can use this to your advantage also. If you plant and get killed, don’t tap out, this way they first have to gib you before starting to difuse the dyno. Although in ET it is tooooo easy to be put in limbo :banghead:

Aye… I guess it’s a feature…

But what’s more annoying is if you drop dyanmite and you got hero teammates who want to help you arm it, you CAN’T if they’re crouching on top of YOUR dynamite… so while they could be putting their own dynamite down, they’re singlehandedly arming yours, when they think they’re helping… GET OFF MY DYNAMITE! :bash:

Think u get the xp for your dyna blowing the gate or whatever anyway, at least this happened to me. I got killed after dropping dyna and still got xp when it went off, someone else had armed it :).
