Grimey Rick 3417 Posted March 20, 2014 I've been in a few close range fights since the patch dropped, and I've experienced people flickering around me when in melee range. This hasn't occurred when I'm shooting from a decent range, only up close. It obviously makes defending yourself extremely difficult.Anyone else experiencing this?

makomachine 263 Posted March 20, 2014 Not this far but have been on only a couple of hours on fairly low pop servers for most of it. Teleporters are the worst... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dayy 173 Posted March 20, 2014 Could be a glitch, could be hackers.... We really can't tell with something like this, we just have to hope it's a glitch, which the devs can fix in the coming updates. (Personal opinion, sounds like a glitch to me) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ozar 108 Posted March 20, 2014 sounds like desync for me. many Player have an issue with desync. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazZarD87 166 Posted March 20, 2014 It's with the new forced location thingy. Server forces the player to be in the location that the server thinks it is, not the client. For others it ll appear like they are porting 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimey Rick 3417 Posted March 20, 2014 It's with the new forced location thingy. Server forces the player to be in the location that the server thinks it is, not the client. For others it ll appear like they are porting That sounds reasonable. I just tested it with my wife; I had her run around me with her gun out, and it appeared like she was flickering in and out all around me, Dragonball Z style. I then had her strip naked (in-game!) and do the same thing. It didn't occur when she had no items on. Also, on a completely unrelated note, saline bags and blood bags give me the "there is nothing left" message when I try to use them on others. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jex 1104 Posted March 20, 2014 If it only happens close in and not far out, wouldn't this be a glitch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
