rossums 2190 Posted February 11, 2013 Okay guys, someone has to know this!I was playing earlier and found myself playing the waiting game with another player up at NEAF and eventually he caved and headed into the barracks.I shot him from the control tower with a single M16 burst and... HE BURST INTO FLAMES!We were both very confused and I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the situation, if only for my sanity.Cheers 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masterfocker 103 Posted February 11, 2013 Happened to me a couple days ago. A dude was running through the forest, and me and my friend opened fire on him. We thought he was hacking, since he burst into flames. We killed him though, and his friend. We were really confused. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted February 11, 2013 Rossums, happened to me yesterday (same server as you too I think)! I was checking my gear when a friend decided to throw a can at my head. It hit me and I burst into flames for about 10 seconds or so. It was bloody funny. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
