Hi! First timer here. Sorry if this has been posted before. I used the search, but I didn't exactly know where to look, either a bug or glitch. Anyway last night I joined a game in Karkand as US, first thing I noticed was there was no commander. So I applied for it since I only have like 3 or 4 hours commanding and I just wanted to try and help. I stayed at the Gas Station, the round is going smooth when out of nowhere I see another "commander" star near my arty. I said to myself maybe a bug or something, so I ignored it (It did't occur to me to zoom in at that moment). I used a scan and saw an enemy near this "commander", so I spotted it for him thinking he didn't see it, but he just continued to the Hotel. The arty blows up and the enemy is heading towards the Gas Station. But to my surprise the "commander" heads to the Gas Station as well, but stops near the satellite trailer and am like what the Hell is he doing?? The enemy was trying to blow up the UAV, which failed because a friendly spawned there and used the tank to kill him, I tried to get close to the other "commander" and see for myself if he was friend or foe, but the team kept asking for UAV and supplies, so I forgot about him. When I went to the commander screen he was running towards the Hotel again, I used a scan no enemies showed, but the flag went neutral. Now I'm WTF?? The enemy takes the flag and a teammate arrives and starts throwing nades and I see the "commander" blowing up, next thing someone[teamkills]someone. Now am puzzled as whether he was actually the enemy commander showing on my screen. So the enemy gets the flag and I see the "commander" sorrounded by enemies on my last scan, and it was not possible that they didn't see him. Anyway we get the flag back, and the team headed to the Train accident for the last two flagas, and to my surprise I see the "commander" near my arty again, 5 seconds later it blows up, this didn't help me at all because I didn't know if he had spawned there (Which was wierd because we had all the flags inside the city and everyone was at the wreck). So what now, enemy or foe, either way the round ended soon after. Due to the fact that it was like 3 AM and I was really tired I only managed to get to screen shots, and didn't even bother to look at the status screen at the end and see if there was commander on the enemy side, because I kept thinking he was on my team.


Here you can see me at the Gas Station and him sorrounded by enemies.

And here when my arty blew up and he was near it while everyone was at the Train accident.

Also if you noticed at both pictures on the upper left hand map, the "commander" star that shows up is not mine since am at the Gas Station that is the lowest blue square. So what was it a bug? glitch?, and no no hack, I barely play like 30 minutes a day, either I get kicked for high ping or my PC just crashes....so I guess am still a newbie.

NVM, it is NOT, it is a bug made by 1.2.

LOL yep.  It's the red name glitch that happened to be on the MEC commander.  GG Dice.  Thanks for addressing the red name glitch.

good thing they fixed the red bug in the 1.2 patch.  Took this 2 nights after the 1.2 patch was released.

That is not a 1.2 bug guys. This is the red tag bug which has been around since I've been playing this game. Some friendlies will show up red and some enemies will show up blue. It just happens to be an enemy commander that shows up blue. It will show up as [Sombody]teamkills[You]. But it's not a teamkill. It's a regular kill and it will show in the score.

If all of these hackers are so good at making hacks for this game, then why the hell can't they put their useless minds into making a "No Red Tag Glitch" hack?

I had a green name bug one time in that the enemy's name showed up in my squad. This was not good for him as I could spot him out anywhere on the map. He contributed to about 50% of my kills that round.

This is NOT a bug. It is a feature enhancement called <Shock and Awe>
