Its been awhile now so it must not be a bug but it sure looks it. The gunner and tank death animation...are they suppose to float away? If any one should float away after they die, it sure as hell shouldnt be the 2 heaviest classes
It's best when the match ends and the last thing you see during the moneyball 'splosion is a tank that is just floating across the screen. I'm guessing someone killed him after the game ended, but it was lulz.
Sometimes I feel that way too. It's almost humiliation though. I don't like dying, but seeing that animation just makes it seem okay. I realize that, however, the fact you mentioned it means you're classifying it as a possible bug, which I don't think it is.
I relate it to that episode of Venture Brothers where Race Bannon dies and Brock tells the Venture Brothers how people loosen their bowels upon death. So the tank and gunner's relaxation of muscles upon death cause them to jet away hilariously.
