As there are certain aspects that are different to other Battlefield games we have had to introduce certain rules in regard to using Squad leader beacons and placement of these beacons.
Quote: 5.2 Team Behaviour - Bug Exploits / Cheating
Rule 1 - During podding from any vehicle or beacon the mouse may only be used for slow movement to turn the direction of the pod. Excessive movement of the pod to gain any extra distance over normal falling distance is banned. As a rule of thumb the distance from the squad beacon should be no more than 15-20m.
Rule 2a - No player may use a squad beacon to get onto/into a position not practically accessible by foot during match play. If a player accidently pods onto one of the these areas via a squad beacon then the player must jump off immediately or suicide if unable. Under no circumstances is the player to fire or deploy anything while in this area. Players may use an apc pod to access any area as long as the podding complies with rule 1. If the beacon is legally placed as per rule 3 then players play use it to land in that area or any nearby readily accessible area.
Rule 3 - Squad beacons may be placed from anywhere that is practically accessible by foot or apc pod during match play, this includes onto ledges or elevated areas if the player threw it from an accessible area. If the beacon is placed under these directions the squad beacon may then be used normally. No player is to spawn on a squad leader or beacon on an inaccessible roof or area if that player or beacon illegally obtained that position via the use of a squad beacon.
New Rules for Season 2[/b]
Quote: Rule 2b No player is to use squad beacon pods to bypass obstacles or to shortcut movement. This includes podding over walls, past fences or up levels rather than using stairwells or ramps. Meaning pods must land in the same open area as the beacon or to a lower nearby area. If a player does accidently bypass an obstacle they must return to the beacon immediately prior to continuing, if they are unable they must suicide and respawn.
Quote: Rule 4 - Squad beacons cannot be placed in any location where it is unable to be killed due to an object or water impairing its destruction. If it is invulnerable to direct hits by artillery, grenades or bullets it is illegal.
FAQ
Q Can I use the APC to pod onto a roof that is normaly not accessible by foot or other means?
A Yes this is permitted but you are only allowed to get there by use of APC and not the use of Squad leader beacon.
Q Once on the roof can I then place the squad leader beacon?
A Yes this is permitted but once again only if you are able to get there using the APC pod.
Q Will Battle Recorder be turned on for ladder matches?
A Yes Battle Recorder will be turned on and it is suggested you review the BR file before logging any disputes. BR files are located Here
Q How far am I allowed to rotate the mouse or what is deemed excessive distance from the Squad Leader beacon?
A As a guide generally the fall from the squad leader beacon is up to 20 Meters.
Q When I place the becon next to the wall I always land over the wall?
A Keep on suiciding or move the becon. Beware that placing a becon in close proximity to such barriers may cause you to land in an area that is against rule 2a.
Q How do I manually add the map if the wrong map is loaded?
A You need to enter Rcon and do the following.
- Bring down the rcon console by pressing the ~ key
Then type the following
- rcon login password
- rcon exec admin.runlevel [map name] [mode] [size]

No, S3 Map Pack is all you need. S2 map pack does have some of the same maps in the S3 map pack but the server side settings have been changed slightly.
You can get S3 map pack from here -> http://www.gamearena.com.au/downloads/d ... 3-map-pack

I had casual talks with a Op at the start of the season suggesting a strong possibility for a 8 week season (S3). Is this the case, or will it be dragged out to 12 weeks? Danke.

After discussing it amongst the ops it is has been decided to continue with the current format of a 12 week competition.
Estimated time for S3 finish will be April 6th.

Ignore it, it's a problem with AVG rather than a problem with the file. Install as usual.

Current ladder status is inaccurate - Regulation Play, not free play.
