Canister shell glitch

Discussion

The canister round needs to be removed from the game by an emergency patch until the ammo switch glitch is fixed. The glitch whill changes each canister pellet (~20 per shot) into a missile which can oneshot any tank and can down any close aircraft due to the shotgunlike spread. Infatry also does not stand a chance due to the enourmous explosion generated by 20 missiles.

Although I have not been on the receiving end yet, this glitch has the potential to make any map with tanks completely unplayable. I went 70-0 on Golmud without trying too hard. I dont know if Dice is aware of this yet, since other glitches took ages to get fixed (f.e. the ifv lock-on missile glitch).

This YT video has lots of clips of the glitched shell being used and instructions of how to replicate it yourself.

Lets hope Dice gets aware of this early before the masses learn of the glitch, because then tank maps will be unplayable.
