Post you most annoying bug !

Recommended Posts

What is your single, most annoying bug in the game ?

No buglist, no top 3, no nothing, only one bug. ;)

What is it ? Maybe this topic will help BI to prioritise your bug over other...

Mine is the rudder control.

Good post m8, my most annoying bug is you set the graphics just right with brightness and contrast, and the dam game keeps reseting back to default, so you have to go back in video options and make a adjustment to get em back again.

well Im playing a mission called badlands at the mo so my top bug at the moment would be squads not doing what you tell them to do and just either running off to attack for no reason or deciding that what ever stance you put them in at whatever speed they will insist on moving as if they are in combat stance and taking in turns to move about 2cm at a time.

Most annoying thing ? People who open STUPID threads when they could just add to an existing one !

Come on it's fun!

It's not bug repoting. As far as it concerns ARMA 2 we are talking about our game experience! :D

The most annoying bug was when units got trapped in strongpoints and couldn't fall back in formation. Good times!

You should of stuck with one card for a game m8, a dual card is a nono, my setup works awesome with arma2, and it cost me £710 to update my pc.

id have to say the scripting is my biggest problem. the manhattan mission ive spent 8 hours reverting now attempting to complete it without the issues of triggers on tasks not working, like at the final base when the allied armor never shows up and i have to try to kill t-72s with nothing appropriate.... or the 'escort the girl' task where the helo never shows up, nothing happens at all and it cannot be completed. you arrive at the waypoint with her, enemies attack, and thats it. or how about the debug message i get when calling a repair truck which never shows up... or that LMB doesnt set destination for the transport chopper so i have to hike back home 6km on foot after some random enemy apc which was never there before appears and pops mine with a missile. or maybe its when i revert the mission and immediately the 'destroy main base' task becomes active for no reason and the t-72s near the final base are shooting at my units on the other side of the map... wtf man, seriously. did they beta test this game at all? im starting to wish i hadn't payed for it, i cant even complete the sp missions due to all the bugs, and what fun is it to spend 6 hours on something, carefully planning your every move, just to get to the end of the mission and find some stupid trigger doesn't work and you're stuck? i had to play the mission where you laser designate targets on the beach after clearing the town and saving prisoners 3x through because of prisoners being randomly dead and getting stuck at the beach after destroying the laser targets didnt trigger the ending script. the beach head mission after it i played 7x. once the ai went randomly to superhero mode and sniped us as soon as the mission started and we came into view of the enemy. another time the 'meet with the cmdr' task failed, and my squad leader kept running way ahead of everyone and getting shot or the enemy would run away instead of engaging and the squad ai would sit there doing nothing thinking the area wasnt clear and they couldnt proceed, even though the enemy ai was 2km away by then, running in the opposite direction. i dont think any game has ever frustrated me like this.

Bug? well not really a bug but the performance.

Amazingly the demo has ren 100% for me in terms of problems/bugs/crashes... I've played many hours in the multiplayer and singleplayer + editor without a crash or bug!

It's incredibly stable for me yet runs like a dog :)

what i really hate: crashes. not one of them (cannot commit, out of memory, yaddayadda), all of them. sometimes i can play 4-5 hours without a crash, but sometimes i can play 15 minutes (its mostly crash when im flying fast with a helo. textures going to shutter and then baaammm)

Collision detection

Imagine a large open field, my soldiers standing roughly 20 metres apart in a line, and a supply truck conveniently lines them up and mows them all down!

Not sure if its the home distilled vodka they are drinking or there's some hooch in them hills, but if they could drive in a straight line like that on the road I would be really happy!

Squad members randomly deciding not to follow me, often due to getting stuck behind a really small bush. And you dont realise theyve gone missing till they ask "where are you?" over the radio.

Other than performance issues, it has to be the squad formation, when they wont follow the formation/direction i tell them to. This is damn anoying for an Army sim!!!

Most annoying bug for me is that AI cant land parachute without dieing in 75%!

PC Freezing other than that vehicle controls and lack of real force feedback.

I haven't played any missions so I'm sure there are worse things.

In the editor it has to be lack of on screen error message, you don't know if an error happened until the game is over which could take a long time to finish.

That could explain why there are a lot of bugs in the game BIS couldn't see them.

Mine is that it takes me 3-4 minutes to save since my documents are located at a NAS.

Most annoying bug - whiners on the forums. Now if only there was a patch for some of them - of course none of you in this thread aren't implicated :)

Just kidding.

I know there are some bugs - but don't miss the wood for the trees. This GAME is amazing and with a little patience it will be EVEN better. Have faith friends...... have faith.

1.Not able to use commands while someone is speaking.

2.Not able to radio your squad for help when you've been injured.

3.The support helicopter landing on a tree/house/lake 9 times out of 10.

4.Vehicles exploding every 10 seconds or so after they've been destroyed.

5.The terrible and awful mission descriptions.

6.(This isnt a bug as such but might as well be) when you leave a mission area you get shot or hit by a missile.

Those are just off the top of my head but I've come into so many bugs in this game so far, I'd say the campaign is near unplayable at points, but multiplayer is kind of fun but alas I dont often play MP games unless im playing on a LAN with my friends.

1. yes, this is annoying

2. just press 5-4

3. I've never had this happen while doing this: When you call in the helo go into your map, use the radio and click on an open field where you want him to land. 9 times out of 10 he will land right where you clicked

4. that's not a bug, it's simulating secondary explosions like ammo and fuel cooking off

5. There's more than enough info for the mission if you read it all

6. I agree they should have put an area of operation circle on the map so you know where your boundaries are

Not sure if this is a bug, but do you really have to go into "stand" stance from crouch to ready your weapon? This isnt a very healthy thing to do in a firefight...:confused:
