Large Amount of Loot = Game disconnect?

[TheSushi 28]

So, in a nutshell, I'm in a supply run at the military tents when some dude pops my friend in the back of the head. We lay low and the guy that killed him runs in, I kill him.

I'm stripping the gear off their bodies and sorting through it all, waiting for my friend to spawn again and salvaging the situation. Then I can't equip anything, do anything and I get the 'receiving' message when I right click on anything.

I do a bit of testing with server jumping and running around - if I run far enough away from the loot pile (the wall by the airfield), I can pull out my gun and I suddenly get the you are getting wet / you are no longer getting wet eeemessages. If I run closer again, I drop, lag, can't use anything, sometimes with a signature error. Logged in and out a few times, verified game cache. No router settings out of the ordinary.

Anybody else had this happen? It sucked that it happened after a firefight when we needed those supplies pretty badly.

i had a similar problem where i got the 'receiving' message, my friend had just been killed by a guy, i killed the guy who killed my friend, tried to pick up all the medical supplies ammo ect... from my dead friend, and i couldn't use them or equipped them, i thought maybe my friends body glitched out so i tried on the guy i just killed, same problem, i think its bug within the game, not to do with your connection, however this is a problem that needs to be looked into, my friend had alot of ammo we needed and lost,

large lootpiles sometimes kill the servers, but its more likley that someone duped on the server. If some guy dupes it affects the whole server, causing 10sec lags or more, where all you can do is walking around. Esp if you say that you just killed someone, it's possible that their allies started duping.

 

Ive seen someone dupe himself 5 times in a couple seconds, that caused the server to crash. You couldnt do anything on it then.

Duping is a critical issue, not only because it gives unfair advantages, but because it affects server performance. I don't get why they did not adress this issue yet.

 

 

However, looting corpses anyway is currently a huge issue, most of the time you can not see the loot a corpse contains or you can not fire his weapon. Either put something into their containers (=clothing, backpack etc) but not on a specific slot, or put em on and relog. The 1st method only works if there is still atleast one slot open in the target container.

Yes, it is a bug. Happened to me once but on other circumstances (huehuehue).
