Need help - I died at airport after shooting someone...

[Errand Boy 0]

So I make it to the northern airport, when i'm looting one of the buildings when i leave a room and go out into the hallway and there are two players standing in front of me in full military garb; both wearing berets and mirrored sunglasses.  However, neither of them appears to be armed, as they're not pointing a weapon at me or even moving for that matter.

 

I attemt to speak to them on chat and I get no response... having been killed countless time I'm rather nervous at this point and thinking that this is some sort of a trap... I shoot the one on the right then my screen goes black and it says I'm dead... WTF???

 

Now i'm rather new at this so I have no idea - is this a bug? a hack?  has anyone else every experienced this before?

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Heavy desync, sniper friend, random death

Sounds like it was a trap and you got sniped to me, not positive though. Just my 2 cents.

There is a glitch with the death system if you log out while in shock or unconscious. The player will stand there with nothing in their hands, and they will not be killable but may bleed, and will not move or do anything. So I think this may have been what you experienced.

this sounds interesting, and explains maybe why they appeared there just standing straight up with zero movement with their arms at there side with no weapons... but how do you explain my death when i'm in a hallway with no windows, so i dont see how it culd have been a sniper.
