Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted May 13, 2014 This happened 2 nights ago. Was totally crazy and I wish I could remember which server I was on. So I'm bumming around the coast somewhere up towards Berezino and I run into a fresh spawn and strike up a conversation. He says he's trucking it back to Berezino but to be careful, he claimed there was a hacker there who teleported up a tower to kill him. I tell him "good luck" and we part ways. Not wanting to deal with whatever insanity was going on in Berezino, I start heading south on the coastal main road towards Elektro. This is where things get interesting. I spot a zombie on the road ahead fighting something/someone. As I get closer I *think* I see a corpse under the zombie but then it suddenly disappears. I kill the zombie and keep moving. Another minute or so of running I happen upon the same situation again, but this time there's 2 zombies beating on someone/something, but as I get closer there's nothing/noone there. I decide to simply run past these zombies and keep moving. Another minute or so of running I run into the same thing again. This is getting odd. I run past the zombie. Another minute or so I swear I see a guy in a red shirt running ahead of me, then he disappears. I look around and all the sudden he's behind me running towards me. Before he gets to me he disappears again. Wierded out I turn and keep running towards Elektro and then maybe a minute later stumble upon what looks like the corpse of the guy in the red shirt that had "teleported" (for lack of a better term) around me just prior. I keep running - and in another minute or so it's like rinse and repeat - the zombie phenomena starts all over again, in the middle of the road beating on something invisible. It's at this point that I decided to log and search for a different server. So very strange, anything experienced anything like that before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gqren 49 Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) This sounded like a beginning of an old fairytale. First, 1 zombie, then 2, then I expected 3 ;)I've seen zombies beating dead air, but never anything like this. Edited May 13, 2014 by gqren Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noother10 6 Posted May 13, 2014 Maybe it was just lag/desync causing it. Perhaps he was teleporting to you constantly but due to lag/desync he ended up ahead or behind you and zombies were spawning on him, but teleporting broke them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
