tether and death of team leader

Filthy McNasty · 03-10-2009, 05:57 AM

havent gotten an answer on this yet so i will bring it to others attention here.

say your spread out across the tether roughly 200m from the team leader and he is shot and killed...2nd in command becomes the team leader then and the tether should in theory center over him...now when this happens whoever was within the old tether will now be in violation at 400m away

is there a grace period to regroup or what??

i cant see someone being killed for a tether violation in that situation

Wow good question.

that is something only someone with inside info could answer.

That could be a potential problem but i bet CM has thought about it and found a way to counter it

im pretty sure the tether is between the players and not strictly on the team leader. but yes i was thinking this, would suck if use were spread over a field and the dude in the middle died. you would all be screwed.

the tether is over the team leader, its a 275m radius from him and at 220m you get a warning that your getting too far away

Just the type of info I was looking for, the first time I heard there was a tether my heart stoped ... but you can get alittle distance between players, thats good.

You have to remain within 275m of your nearest squadmate, it doesn't have to be the squad leader.

Tether Zone, second paragraph.

So technically speaking 4 people on co-op can spread out to 275m giving a theoretical max distance between 2 players 1100m? Badly worded, but I'm tired and can't think of a better way to put it.

the question still remains though... if your tethered to a middle man that is tethered to the others what happens if he dies...your still too far out to be within the other teammates
