Some where I am sure that this question is answered in the hundreds of threads in the forum, but I have not found it. I notice the other day a mysterious dwarf wearing a red pointed hat hiding in the grass. Once in awhile I see him looking at me when I am waiting for revive. Who is this guy? 
No, I have not been drinking a beer at the times I have seen him. It kinda reminds me of the hidden snow man a couple of winters ago, but I have seen this guy too often.
You are just drunk mate.

That is an easter egg, They occasionally pop up around you, You can shoot them but they will reappear in a different location but still in your vicinity.
Make the little dudes pay man.
If you shoot them, they follow you everywhere, it’s funny
Thanks for the information…I guarantee if a player was drinking last night and started to see this pop up, they would put away the bottle for the night. I did shoot at them hoping for Company Coins, but the little guy started following me around.
It means you destroyed the gnome on Arras both of which can be… a lot of different places… they’ll stop haunting you if you build a gnome house with the build tool.
Wow… there is more to the story…Yes when I first spotted them it was only on one map, Arras. Are there points when the house is built? I have not seen them on other maps.
You can only build the gnome house if you’re prone, don’t forget.
I saw one of those garden gnomes in Arras near church and shoot it. After a while it came back with red gloving eyes, LOL. Then it disappeared leaving just red smoke. Round ended so I don’t know if it would haunt me for longer time.
He lives near the church in the field…yep…only veteran Battlefield players have seen him B) …Best k/d or best squad does not matter, but a gnomes sighting does. It is like spotting your first UFO. Update: Last night on the far side of the church roof was an old type dial telephone. If you press E, you can dial it. I went back later and it disappeared. Later during the game I went to a shed and found and old type phone box with hook that had a shovel on it (it resembled an old phone) and a blinking red light. This is getting crazy :# (only happens on the Arras map). Please explain this Moderator.
