They are blowing up with full health

Has anyone else come across this bug?

Situations.

A) Sharqi Pen:- Hoped in Tank at TV station moved into Alley Way all I had was Cobra above me and BOOM. NO ENEMY INVOLVED IN THIS AT ALL, COBRA ABOVE ME WAS MY SQUAD MATE.

OK, forgot to mention has happened wierdly enough with T90 on Sharqi, you drive it out the door way of MEC base and to your right you will see railings if you touch the tank on a certain angle it will blow the tank up also. No interaction with enemy involved.

B) Operation Harvest:- Grain Elevator has 4 drums placed on the outside near the road way you drive past them the wrong way BOOM. NO ENEMY INVOLVED IN THIS AT ALL, they were miles away from Grain ELEVEATOR.

These tanks were in good health no issues, other Australians have reported similar issues.

Is this a bug or something that EA has forgot?

M1a2 tanks suck ever since 1.4
I gave up using them, an apc is more useful. They go down in 2 hits from a t90 now. So stupid =/

There are sweet spots on tank that only take 1 shot to kill from another tank. ItS no bug.

What did the top left of the screen say on the way that you died?

Maybe its an Australian bug!!! Just Kidding Never had it happen.

Elite.Mafia---->Two shots from one tank to another in the right spot is always a kill even before 1.4

There is something called a TV missle that the attack helos have, and it kills anything in one hit. The Abrahm hasn't changed since 1.4.

happens on both tanks. As my esteemed colleague NATO has already mentioned. My advice to you is to make your first shot count.

No tank hits or any enemy interaction are involved in these explosions, it is merely the tank moving around either hitting 1 sand bag or just merely exploding.

There is no interaction with any enemy in any of these explosions.

OK again, there is no TV MISSLE involved in these explosions, the tank merely explodes with person in it.

There is no interaction with enemy, drive it 100 metres blows up.

Nah but I'm saying like everytime I get in a m1a2 its always a 2 hit kill on me, no matter what. Like I even tested this out with a friend, doesnt matter where you hit anymore... Maybe I'm wrong?

I've had my tank just explode with no enemy contact. Nothing is fired at me. The tank is at full health. I'll just be driving around and BAM... I suppose it is possible that I was hit with a TV missle, but it never says what hit me. I didn't even see a 'LordBeer is no more' go across the screen. I dont remember if I was in an M1 or not, but I'm pretty sure it was.

Haven't had it happen more then 2 or 3 times, but I have had it happen.

erm, there is one thing I can think of- there wasn't any C4 on the front of the tank was there? as that is just jihad jeeping with tanks. ( as an aside, technically the ROE only says fast-moving vehicles in it's prohibition on jihad jeeping, it doesn't mention tanks. so you could go around in a tank with c4 on the front, and when you run out of ammo firing at an irritating enemy tank, slam on the gas and BOOM. even better if you hop out first and then set off the C4.

( some people might notice the correct spelling this time. i used the spell checker.)

Reason why I post this is to take the results of this to EA and ask them is there a specific glitch as per half the comments on here might be people experiencing the issue of a tank problem.

The issue I experienced on Sharqi in the T90 seems to be fixed but the m1 Tank still is problematic.
