Helping out new players sometimes goes horribly wrong.

[ZombieGuy23 6]

I play a medic in-game that helps new players learn the game. 

 

I met this guy on the coast who was new and his screen was all blurry. Pulled him off to the side and at first I thought his screen was gray from blood loss, but it wasn't after asking him. I told him to hit esc then go to configuration then press on video on the menu to clear up his screen (side tip). This forces the video to load correctly and quickly for me.  This happens to me on a normal basis.

 

Was showing him around for an hour or two and during that time the server reset. We re-joined the same server again after a minute. When I logged in he was wondering why I wasn't wearing any pants. He then noticed my backpack was gone as well. I'm sure I probably freaked out the guy since we had only been playing together for less than hour roughly. 

 

Odd glitch that only let me keep my weapons and jacket?

Normal layout is 3-5 medic packs (I try to keep it at three with decked out medic packs).

It was an odd glitch and I bet he thought I was crazy at this point. Who helps a new player out only to have no pants on at one point? 

 

Usually I respawn if something like this happens. Never just spawn with 1/4th my items.

If every encounter went the way you thought it would the game would become boring :)

Same, quite the twist ending.

...Maybe he just killed your pants / backpack?
