Satyricon

As I said, I didn't log out or any of it... respawned, ran straight back. 10min tops, less I ken. I'd believe it if the body was hidden. I've heard nothing official one way or the other though, and hearing people give eyewitness testimony of corpses just vanishing, (and that my thread was approved + posted by the mods,) makes me think it's a legitimate bug.

7/27/12 ~22:50 GMT-5 I was north of the Balota airstrip, in the woods, heading for the ATC. I was alone on the server when I logged on. I began experiencing the mad graphical artifacting, (that I've since learned wasn't unique to me.) Checking the number of players on the server, (DE 718,) seeing only 2.. I go prone and mess with my video settings. I'm turning stuff down/off to try n correct, when it suddenly got much worse and I get shot to death. I'm pissed, but it happens. I abort out and respawn east of Kamenka- lucky! I figure I can make it back over to my body in just a couple minutes. I had a compass, matches, 3 tents in my ALICE, revolver with 6 mags, Enfield with about 9 mags. Not to mention food, drink, morphine, et cetera. There's no way someone had room for all of it and I figure I can scavenge something, or not; I had to check, regardless, since I spawned so close. I check server population again and I'm alone.. seemed suspicious that the artifacting got worse right before I heard the gun shot. Given that I was hidden, in the woods, with only 2 other players on the server... coincidence that I was found seems crazy, and that my gunman vanished right after shooting me.... Making it back to where I died, I turn up my volume and zero in on the flies buzzing... no body. Running full out in a straight line from kamenka, over komarovo, over balota to where I died, couldn't have taken me more than 5-7min. Shouldn't my corpse still have been there?
