can anyone tell me why my guys wont use smoke when you give em the fall back order?there meant to,it even says they do on one of the menu screens?also why wont the apc thing you get to drive when attackin the fuel depot wont deploy its smoke?

also found a stupid bug,if you play the spec ops mission to blow the generator at the fuel depot in campagin when you die as you enter the place next time you spawn the buildings at the front of the compound arent solid so you can fire through them an so can the enemy..

The game has many bugs and glitches unfortunately and CM (codemasters) assure us they are working to fix them.... dot expect anything to soon though, you know what companies are like at getting patches out "cough cough IL2 BOP, cough cough" sorry had to clear my throat their.

Anyway..... why they dont deploy smoke when told to fall back, i have no idea, i guess they enjoy playing the role of john rambo. I think they expect you to provide smoke. And the smoke on the APC.... i cant help with that, but will check shortly and get back to you.

Had some good games last night with SleepTrgt and Mr Greezy but with insurbordination in the ranks it soon lead to a few regretable deaths.

After Sleep went to inform our families of our death in service of our country me and Greezy did mission 1 on hardcore in what can only really be called a comedy of errors resulting in my soldier being the last one alive...with a leg wound...miles from the pickup.
Oh then I rolled the jeep.

Last game of the night was a quick MP game where I got to drive an M1 and fly a littlebird raining rocket death on all who opposed me! (until I ran out of rockets, where do you rearm that thing?)

im on that mission at the min mate ill try the helo later and see if it happens to me too

never tryd the fall back option yet ill try that too to see if they use smoke but i suspect that you have to lay down the smoke first then give the fall back option

allso i think it has something to do with the roe if they are weapons free they will keep engaging the enemy instead of what you have told them on the mission where you have to follow the general around my men kept giving our postion away but after i changed the roe to hold fire they did as told and stayed put ..

hope this helps


roll on the last mission then its hardcore mode for me

have you played much on multiplayer yet ??? i played a few games last night but nobody spoke to each other much kinda defeate the object if you ask me if you talk to each other and coordinate your attack/defence this game could be so much more

If you see me in a party Dazz jump in, I'm always up for some MP and people who talk would be a big bonus.

Just wanted to say thanks guys, reading this thread convinced me to pick this game up and I'm enjoying every minute of it, even when I'm dying and swearing a lot.

i always have the roe set hold fire anyways so it aint that.and you dont have smoke grenades your fire team is ment to..does anyone else feel like we are bugtestin this game for codemasters instead of them?
