Is weapon relock feature allowed?

Hi,

Is it allowed by Banzore and other groups like Battlefield Agency and BF4DB to use the weapon relock feature? For example, with the IGLA, you can lock on to a first target, fire and then change targets mid-range. I saw one player say that this was a glitch since on the second lock, the missile accelerates quickly, leaving little chance for the second target to use its countermeasures.

Thank you

Seeing as how you can do this accidentally, yes.

How often do you encounter multiple targets in range of the Igla to even do this?

game mechanic works as intended imo

It depends on the map and the weapon. In Shanghai, this can be done very frequently given the size of the map and the presence of several possible targets.

Agreed not a glitch. Rockets speed up and by the time it locks again it's going faster.

Now could a rocket pull off a 1000g turn like we see them do in BF4? Prolly not.
