Ok, so I'm trying to get my Good Conduct Ribbon, and I'm on Wake as Commander through several rounds, trying to rack up some commander points, and get the 14 kills needed.  But every friggin' time I use the arty I get a whole crapload of "team vehicle damage!" things.  Apparently, the arty damages itself now when it fires.  REALLY annoying.

Wha ?  Are you sure that there wernt any friendlies in the area at the time or aircraft going over, as thats been known to happen.  But you do know that you no longer get kills as commander.  they dont count towards the ribbon, at least they didnt for me.  You actually have to kill people to get the ribbon, artillery unfortunately no longer counts.

If the arty did damage itself, then thats just messed up, but I dont think its a possibility as no one else has experienced it that I know of.

Also, where were you firing at the time?

I was firing it at the Chinese airfield, there were no friendlies either around the art or the target area.  I one time stood near the art to watch, and every time one of em fired, there was a massive explosion, like an arty strike, right next to it.  Lagged me to hell.

But thank you for the info about the kills, although I think that's not quite right.  I did get my veteran medic combat and spec ops combat badges with the arty in part.  I think that arty kills dont show up on scores, but now count for like 1/3 or 1/4 of a kill.

I've noticed that the Wake Island Arty is fucked, but in a different way. Play as USMC, and capture the Airfield. The PLA's Arty appears on the map, unlike on other maps, and if you destroy it, it's team vechile damage
