Strange (new?) bug

Postby Gulidar » Sat Jul 19, 2008 11:57 am

Well, some days before i saw a strange thing happened in Defcon(there were 2 specs who saw it also but they were too lazy to bugreport it, heh). Well, it is a bug but not just the software bug, i mean, it's not just the "windows troubleshooting bug" about defcon crashing and that's why i post it here. Hope i'm not wrong.

So. Two screenshots.

Looks similar to the bug that happens near the map seam... never seen it there before though O_o

Это случается при перелёте нюка через разрыв карты по линии Берингова пролива :) Старая тема.

For those of you that don't read Russian, it is as rus|Mike said -- and old bug that occurs near the seam. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along. And not, I have never seen them land after that. You can, however, right-click and disarm them if it annoys you.

You all just complain for the sake of complaining =) I've never had a problem with that bug and I think you have to search for it to find it...

It happens quite a bit when you employ naval nuking in the Pacific, or if you are trying to bomb Russian targets at the eastern edge of Siberia (i.e. early warning radar). Other than that, you are correct, it is not that common. But it does happen often enough in normal gameplay to be worth noting.
