Day of interesting bugs.

So I had a fun day playing today but, for some reason it was more buggy than the past 2 days of playing. I'm not sure if it has to do with the new version. I fresh spawned because my character got wiped (my own stupidity for joining a different server), met up with a random person in Kamenka who turned out to be friendly, we journeyed a bit until he eventually disconnected or desynched or something, leading to interesting bug #1: 

#1) Mirages
Did I mention I was nearly dying of thirst and hunger so this bug almost made sense, but after he disconnected, I found a town and saw his character up ahead, so I followed him to a house (trying to talk but hearing no response), went inside the house and it was empty with the back door not open. I leave through the back door and see his character at the door of the house up ahead, go inside, but this time when I get to the door, the front door wasn't open. Spooky. But that was the last I saw of that. 

Anyway, I make my way to a large city somewhere up north, now really dying of hunger and thirst, and pass out as the server resets. When I log back in, I'm conscious, bleeding and dying of hunger/thirst. Two guys approach me with axes and start axing me in the face but I somehow don't die ...

 

#2) God Mode

I actually wanted to die, but seeing I wasn't for whatever reason, I decide to axe them back and make them both bleed, then chase them up the road until they server hop (take that KoS). Eventually I head back to the city like wtf. They server hop back and start calling me a hacker and asking how I'm hacking. I respond that I'm bugged. Either that or we were all heavily desynched. They leave the server again, and I decide to test this out while I'm still bleeding, get hit a bunch of times by a zombie and don't die. Eventually I bandage myself , eat and drink, loot the entire city eating all the food but somehow my screen is still black and white so maybe I'm just bugged at 0 health or something. 

Eventually I find more loot run around a bit, find a handgun and an M4, and fireman axe (yay), start heading north and get chased by a zombie, leading to 

#3) God Mode Zombie
I shoot her (a lot). I axe her. She doesn't die. She then takes a swipe at me and 1 shots me. GG

Maybe I was dead the whole time. Anyone else experience some outlandish bugs?

Myself and a friend both had the constant grey screen thing...think it's something to do with the colours not resetting after getting damaged because I ran around for about 6 hours and munched all food I found with grey screen! Still grey now! Saw somewhere in the steam community that a Saline IV will fix it and tried it on my friend, which seemed to work! Just looking for another IV for me now! Pretty sure it's just a bug though. As for the rest it just sounds like heavy desync possibly?

Oh I forgot to mention, I was also only able to walk (though for some reason could still sprint), but after eating a bunch I could run again, that's why I figured I was healing but my screen was still black and white. I'll keep the Saline in mind for the future. As for the rest, it probably was just heavy desynch, but I'm glad I died to a zombie rather than the 3 server hoppers trying to kill me with axes :D
