A couple of times today I was killed (stabbed in the back) while piloting the UAV. After respawning I ran back to the UAV terminal and jumped on again.
Instead of the UAV view I got a third person view of my character. I couldn't do anything here so I backed out (O button).
After that when I tried to go back to the terminal it would never prompt me to pilot the UAV again even though the UAV wasn't blown up.
The UAV was effectively disabled for the rest of the time on that section of the map.
Did anyone else notice this?

Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Game » consists of 26 releases. Released Mar 02, 2010
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the second installment in this spin-off Battlefield series. It has a more serious campaign and a vastly expanded multiplayer system.
Killed while piloting UAV = No more UAV
" I don't even know how to pilot the UAV "Look for a white square with sort of an arrow symbol on it (on your map). There is a little terminal that you hop on to pilot the UAV. You have to be on the attacking team.
Also, L1 makes it ascend and L2 descends. Took me a couple of tries to figure that out. First couple I mistakenly shot a rocket down on myself....
Yeah, the first time I saw it I pressed O and it went into a view behind my character. I couldn't move teh UAV up or down, just forward and backwards on the ground and non of the animations were playing. Of course, I thought it was because the UAV was busted in some way, because I hadn't encountered one before.
Ive jumped on the UAV once or twice but I dont know what Im doing with it and usually die right away. On the other hand I've shot down probably 20 UAVs, and I love defending harbor (before the final stand) and getting to the heavyMG to the left and killing the guy at the UAV box across the water.... love it.
It's best to post Battlefield issues on the UK ElectronicArts forums since the North American ones are rarely modded or looked over. Also especially since the DICE team actually uses the UK ones.
" A couple of times today I was killed (stabbed in the back) while piloting the UAV. After respawning I ran back to the UAV terminal and jumped on again.Yesterday, I was also killed while using the UAV. At first I could not do anything but later on, the UAV was destroyed (by me btw xD) and I was able to command it again. Try doing that and see if it helps. Though Im not using the UAV much since as a Recon, I'd rather stay in hide looking to the front lines, and the skies, since Ive downed many UAVs before they attempt to screw me.
