Looking to see if anyone is keen to buy my tagger (Predator)? Can provide pic's including accessories if interested. Thanks Pirate

The seat limit of 8 players per vehicle was assumed to be hardcoded for a long time. However, it turns out that it just never got really tested properly. After looking at the code and giving it a test, we found out that the real hardcoded limit is 10 players per vehicle. Those who already read the v1.6.3 update highlight will know that we broke that too and this DEV Blog will talk about some of the challenges that we had. The first big issue and main reason why the seat limit was assumed to be hardcoded, was the control binding. Normal BF2 only has controls for switching to seats 1 to 8, but if those 8 seats were filled, you would enter the normally unreachable seats. …

just finished a round of Carentan and had to deal with a guy firing down on us from inside a fugen TREE on the northside of Canal Crossing. He was really high up. I don't necessarily think that is what the devs intended, so I'd call it glitching. He was impossible to see from anywhere but point blank UNDER the tree (ROBBYXC heard the shot above him). We managed to take him out with Grenades at the base of the tree. He probably killed 10-12 people. What is the stance on players glitching into unintended vantage points? There's a tree where my mouse pointer is on this image, where two hedgerows meet. Some friendlies were trying to work out how he got up there... [ATT…
