Only DICE can truly answer why they decided to switch-up the equipment keys when rolling with the unlock weapons. Its annoying, but you'll get used to the switch-up after a while.

Oh snap. Thread name should be switched to "Ask Draeh A Question". lol

Anyways, I just recently achieved the rank of Lieutenant General after I logged on (a message popped up that said "You've made it to Lieutenant General" or something along those lines. How did I achieve such a rank? Or in other words, what is the requirements to getting such a rank?

O He-who-does-not-lie-ra,
Does the top armour of tanks, APCs, etc. have less armour than the front or sides?

The top has mostly the armor value of the sides. You can look for all the nice armor pictures here:

What are the differences between a red diamond and a white diamond on the UAV?

**Lyramion** · 06-07-2009, 10:19 PM

White diamonds seem to be strange oddities. Usually beieved to appear on people that killed you or a squadmate

<FHC]==0 HighNoon · 06-08-2009, 01:21 AM

Hmm. Interesting. Also I meant netbat of course, not UAV.

Lyra, it appears that sometime the PAC SAAW sometimes glitches and won't lock on. Is there any trick you know of to make it work again? Spinning on the spot or something?

Never had this happen to me ever. So no help there buddy.

Have this as compensation:

Won't lock at all or the shot drops after you fired it?

Dropping is second shot's problem, if you don't keep pressing m1

Just won't lock. Zoomed in, tracking the gunship but no tone or lock symbol. Or it locks on for a second and stops even though it's still in plain site. It varies. It's happened to me a few times and it's incredibly annoying.

What's the deal with the recon's netbat? Why is it so great? And where did all the tags go?

As said a 100 times before:

Recon netbat can give you minimap scan dots with Otus and Pulsemeter that reach far beyond those of an IDS.

The tags got overmoderated I guess. Really strict now.

Dear Oracle, oftentimes I can't hear my squadmates over the in game effects (orbitals, shootings etc). How do I turn up the volume of their voices?
