Yea, there is defiantly something strange a foot.Same Normandy map, no AFV,German attack, spotted enemy AFV at 400+ meters, first spot on infantry 212 meters but unidentified, identified at 201 meters.

I think whats in the picture is a problem. Where did these guys come from, and why no floating icon. They just appeared in the VP circle and started shooting at my mortar. They never did get an icon, i could target them with what was left of my mortar crew.

Another interesting thing, another picture will follow in the next post.

Same setup as previous, except just a lone allied AFV. You can see how much time has elasped. My tank started taking fire from another AFV, strange, nothing was spotted. 4 shots went by before i managed to catch a shot in flight, still nothing spotted. See the incoming round.

2 seconds later after the crew bails, incidentally those enemy infantry are just over 200 meters away.

Here's a link to a video i shot doing the Normandy LOS test. I edited out segments when nothing was happening, no shooting or visible enemies. German attack, noon, i have a recon car, jeep and recon squad. They take a lot of fire from unseen enemies, and one enemy seems to teleport to the VP never seen on approach. Every spotted unit is in the video, nothing is identified outside 200 meters. i have seen unidentified contacts outside 200 meters but barely outside 200 meters. It also concern that the AI never really does much of an attack, if you look at the game time stamps you can see not a whole lot happened and the scenario went the distance. I gave the Germans a pionier company 44 and no support units.

Hope this helps you figure out what could be going on Steve.
