Version 1.31 has been out for a couple of weeks and, by and large, the feedback we've been receiving is great. There are, however, a few issues that are plaguing the game that we are working on resolving, just in case you thought we'd fallen asleep at the wheel.

Bad State On Vehicles

So you're chugging along the European countryside and, lo and behold, what do you see but a German tank bouncing across fields with flames shooting out every crack in his tank yet still firing rounds. No, the commander is not the Human Torch or made of asbestos. What's happened is somewhere along the line, the host got confused and decided that the tank was on fire and has sent out data to display that state. While the tank might display all the signs of being complete toast, it really isn't. Doesn't happen all the time, but often enough to make people wonder who spiked their morning coffee with LSD.

CTD on Respawn

Or more commonly known as "Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!". One of the least favorite issues that has cropped up, and one we're trying real hard to track down. If for nothing more than to preserve your buddies hearing since you won't be shrieking incoherent and creative obscenities over Team Speak anymore.

Concussion Bug

This is kind of like the audio version of the Cornflake Bug. Groups of players in some locations will suddenly be afflicted by all the symptoms of having had an explosive round go off next to them with the exception that it NEVAR STOPS!

Infantry Colliders

Infantry are having some funky issues with the colliders not reacting the way they should be. Foreheads are currently colliding with keyboards in an effort to nail the cause of this down.

Mission Results Pending

After ending an uber mission, some players results page is stuck on "Mission Results Pending". No, this doesn't mean that their classified mission to bring Hitler's brain home in jar has been deemed top secret and agents are on their way to "debrief" said player. It means that there's some connection not being made in a database somewhere.

All of these issues have been identified as MUST FIX and are being worked on by their respective departments. There is currently no time line on fixes, but you can rest assured we want this stuff cleared up as much as you guys do.

Duct-tape fixes Everything! and the concussion bug isn't a bug. Its just the hangover that you got in game, from looting all them nice towns with the big brewery's. Keep at it. I am sure you'll fix them all in no time.

What about the Blackout bug, where you're driving a truck (with an ATG or not), and suddenly you blackout and lose stamina? Often happens on rough ground. That, Concussion (repeating bombs falling/exploding) and Results Pending affect me sometimes.

Yes, we're aware of that one, as well.

All of these issues seem to pop up after major patches...do you have a list of usual suspects? (Don't forget the backout pushing guns and driving trucks!)

There is a number of issues with keys, all of a sudden you stop a tank, and you go to start up the engine. Press E and nothing happens.

Vis Limits vrs axis uniforms are getting out of hand. This hopefully will be looked into.

Bugs be damned, this is still the best patch in the history of the game. I hope CRS continues on the theme of improving the teamwork aspect of the game like the new capture system has.

Great to see you guys seem to be on top of things :)
If its any relevance, I have been coming across the 'Mission Results Pending' effect for a number of years now :)
Keep up the good work

Am I right using a .report on issues such as floating trees & map flags overlapping? I've also noticed that sometimes I get a CTHL. I reboot, then find a major change in the spawn delay. The link seems more than coincidence. Dan

The .report command is used to report in-game issues like clippers or griefers. They alert the GMs to act on suspicious game play. Bugs should be posted in the Live Game Bug Reporting forum.

I was wondering about the Flaming Tank Syndrome... A Stug scared the Unholy Hades out of me last night, but at least I could clearly SEE it.

Infantry colliders not acting normal- does this mean the return of infantry being run over by enemy trucks/tanks/deadly poisonous ATGs?

Not asleep at the wheel. Hitting the Gin heavy yeh, but not asleep at the wheel. New patch does indeed rock harder that a Kiss, Guns&Roses & Def Leopard coalition band.But it will not achieve the dizzy heights of 'Best game Evah' until bailing is in.

On the .report thing, it would be nice if there was a .terrain to report floating objects. ( esp if it auto-included your exact co-ordinates) It's so specific that somebody looking through them wouldn't have to sift through a bunch of worthless chat.

that's actually a good idea eggdog

Loosing connection every 10 minutes, have read all I can in supportpages but cant solve the problem. "tracert"in DOS not tried but wouldnt understand it anyway. It really annoys me since it often takes at least 10 minutes to go to the front

I have experienced the concussion bug. In both cases it was in areas between cities when I was bringing up a tank to bolster a defense. Both times it was out in no mans land not on the road, also it disappeared when I got close to tgt town.

One bug I've found: Ragdoll effects: I was minding my own business shooting germans, when I came across a tank, got shot, and the ragdoll effects went CRAZY! I had got stuck in the tread of the tank and was jerking about like a Mad Keen Lemming.
