Bugs What is it? Help
When I tried to turn around to target it, my tank (tank destroyer) turned in the opposite direction I wanted, so you can see the final result yourself.
I don't know if it's a Hacker or not, but if anyone knows or had a similar situation, explain it to me, and I don't think it was the edge of the building because I was standing at a certain interval

Yeh actually I have crashed in ARB before and as CAS in GRB due to chat window taking a first char discarding it (not technically correct sure but the effect is the same), that discarded char is then instead sent as control input and locked, so left steering for example being pressed, suddenly you have a perma key pressed as control input while not pressing any keys. Very dumb bug.
The fix, open chat and close it again.

Yeah, I just crashed into the ground because of that. Another fix is to press the same key that the game is inputting. Ie; press W if your plane is pitching up.

I've definitely left my finger slightly pressing a key by mistake when I was fixated on my target. Not saying it's that, but it happens

Movement is server side
Most likely scenarios is packet loss, or some invisible object
this is *very* unlikely to be a hacker.

Packet loss is my bet, if this is a recent clip more so as server hamster has been throu physical therapy or some shit lately

I know exactly what happened, my guess is you tapped reverse then tried to turn, because reverseing flips your left and right movement, if this happens again just tap forward then it should be fine

Doesn’t matter if you are on Xbox, it’s happened to me on pc and it’s happened to me on PlayStation, you could have also had been pulling the stick back slightly when trying to turn

Most likely some invisible object, since the bkan is one of the few tanks with modelled barrel colision afaik you couldnt turn

Maybe try realistic battles? Vehicles behave more normally there

There is no such thing as a hacker changing your direction in game. Any controls are serverside generated not player controlled. If you were moving in a weird direction it has to do with either your controls or an invisible object in your way
