The only glitch I've gotten is on Iwo Jima by the lighthouse trenches. I was running in a trench and it was like the door glitch in BF:BC where it slammed me into the side and counted as a suicide.

Don't think this ones been posted:

When searching with squad and spamming X and A to get through the "cant find game" message, it occasionaly will lose the squad box, then if you go to host a private game u will have no squad boxes on the left and right (Jap / USA)

EDIT: Why can I not post again on the sticky for server issues?
Need more to cover UK as peak times u can't get on for ages, 30-60 mins atm and no games (

On the Xbox 360 the 'Best Squad' Achievement is glitched and won't unlock for many and randomly unlocks mid-game for others.

There are alot of people in this thread (link below) with the same problem.

"Best Squad" Achievement Glitch. - Xbox360Achievements.org

So guys at DiCE please check it out.

Thanks.

Nope, atleast not in my case. Those planes are hard enough to fly, I'm certainly not trying to look at a scorecard while flying.

1 ) Top Squad Achievement Glitched and achievement error
I'm currently taking pictures as I get top squad again on each map to prove I've done it. I've gotten top squad on each map, before I started taking pictures, at least 5 time a piece. No achievement and only 1 Best Squad Stamp, no Best Squad Postcard.
2 ) Illegally modified controllers found on ebay and elsewhere on the net that allow you to hold the RT down and it goes turbo, activating the button press 20-30 times per second. It allows the user to fire off an entire clip from a semi-auto weapon in under 1 second with no recoil.
8 ) Where, I'm looking and can't find it.

What controllers?"

You guys obviously don't get to game much, as you are so busy making them, otherwise you'd know what a modded controller was and that making semi-auto fire in a gun, is bad idea because of them

Modded controllers are bought by idiots to allow them to fire a semi-auto rifle, like the M1 Garand, as if it is an Uzi. Already happens a lot in COD WAW and I have already been on the receiving end of one in BF1943.

Here...

YouTube - MODDED Rapid Fire Controller for CALL OF DUTY 4

Other than that, which isn't really your fault, it is a great fun game

Thank you for taking out the team killing too. It is more fun to play and the idiots are hilarious to watch as they still try to team kill

The requirement is "Be the best in the squad on all three maps". Not "Be in the best squad on all three maps"

everyone on these forums have been whining about the game not being released faster. They finished it up as fast as they could for us and now people are moaning about this. This is what we get for hushing them on the game.

Nope, it says:-

Best Squad
Be in the best squad on all three maps

That is from Xbox.com.

So is the description wrong?

Even the name of the achievement is called BEST SQUAD....

Is one of the descriptions for these wrong then?

EDIT: Opps... Just saw StrongBowTJ's response saying the exact same thing.

Thank you for checking into this all djonsson. Please don't misunderstand, the game is impressive and well made, especially for the way EA gives their devs impossible deadlines.

Minor graphical glitch at the beginning of a round.

2. When forming a squad if you try and join and it doesnt find a game then it will Kick everyone out of the squad room and you have to restart the room and reinvite everyone.
Capacity issue.

3. Game Freezes..have to restart XBOX. This has happened several times over the course of 8 hrs to me and my friends. My box doesnt freeze on any other game
Packet loss issue.

4. Friends get split up when you do happen to get in a game together. No way to switch teams and it puts players on different teams when in your squad.
Auto Balancing in action.

5. Sometimes you cannot leave your squad in game or invite others to your squad. You press A to invite but nothing happens
Full squad?

6. Game starts searching and just continues indefinetly. NO way to cancel the search to start over unless you dashboard. Or if your in a squad have 1 member leave and then invite them back
Capacity issue, client does not receive a timeout from the server.

7. Sudden loss in sound occasionally - Not sure if thats due to the lag problem or not. But the sound cuts in and out
Capacity issue.

Regarding the planes. I think you have brought up the scoreboard whilst flying. When you do, the input from the controller is lost. Re-pressing the throttle will keep the plane in air.
3. If this were a packet loss issue, why does it freeze the entire Xbox system and not just the game? That is, why can't I go to console when the game freezes?

4. I hope this will not happen in private matches or when entering a match as a squad. I think I've seen it happen in the latter case, which defeats the purpose of playing as a squad with your friends...

As far as the capacity issues, I assume you mean that once you have more than enough servers that we will not have to search for a game more than once, it will become a none issue. I hope you get enough servers for that to be true, because it's annoying to lose the chat channel when your squad is broken up after each search.... This seems like it could be easily fixxed. The timeout issue is also annoying, and often requires you to stop to reload the game. Again, unable to be fixxed?

Ill try and keep this updated with newly found ones. Do not mention the lag or cannot find game we are experiencing because we know they are working on this already
all of what he said i to have noticed, the game freezing has happened quite a abit now, joining friends and when in a squad searching, when it says joining but then says server unavailable the squad leaves and you have to invite them again. ALso sound does go werid sometimes too
