Bloodzy (DayZ) 19 Posted December 15, 2015 [What's Happening] Hey guys! I saw a topic about this yesterday but it seems to have dissipated so that makes me come to the conclusion that this could possibly be fixed ALREADY? I can't really wrap my head around that statement possibly being true. I know that there was a game-wide maintenance this morning that fixed the issue of players that were on experimental being able to join the stable branch servers but was that somehow connected to the invisible people bug? I didn't notice the bug until yesterday, which was also the time when all the BattleEye kicks were happening notifying players that they were on the wrong version of the game. This could entirely be a coincidence but as a game-breaking bug, I would really like to know if this has been fixed already. [background Information --- No need to read] My buddies and I were doing some good ol' banditry in Cherno lastnight having a jolly good time taking down the other geared people that have made their way from NWAF or any of the army bases back down to the coastline. After taking down around 8 players, a good hour or so into our game time we spotted two geared players chatting it up in the middle of the road completely oblivious to their surroundings. We were stationed in a building (which we had just came into minutes before mind you) and took them down with our scoped Winchester and trust longhorn. These guys were fully decked out military geared with AKM drum mags and hunting backpacks to boot. As is customary, we had one person strip and go loot while two went with him to cover and one stayed in the sniper position as overwatch. Out of nowhere an MP5 gunfire erupts right in front of the three that advanced on the dead bodies. Two went down instantly begging the question, where the hell is this guy and why does the MP5 gunfire sound so close but cannot be due to the circumstances [ie: sniper overwatch + 3 guys looking in 3 different directions]. Also we have to take into account how an MP5 cannot instantly take out 2 guys that were relatively spread apart from a far distance. The guy's position being unknown to our group, the remaining guy that was advancing retreated back. Sniper overwatch then spotted the horde (8 or so count) of zombies that have been attracted by this new action unfolding. They all converged into the middle of the street chasing a seemingly invisible person. The above scenario could simply be a group of bad players being ambushed by an MP5 player and not seeing him because their glasses were dirty and the zombies could have had some AI problem that led them to group into the road to attack nothing. But later that night I played with another one of my friends. We both logged on in our typical spot but for some reason I could not see him. He was rocking the sporter for god knows why considering we had good gear. Anyway, we decided it may just be a problem on my end and proceeded to go PVP. Somehow noone else could see him either and he was dropping kids left and right with point-blank sporter headshots. We decided this was a game bug and tried to fix it. After multiple game restarts and server hops, the problem persisted. [End of In-game Experience/Background Info] [Conclusion] Now my question to everyone is: Has this been fixed? If it hasn't, why was the thread I discovered yesterday about it missing and why have the bug reports about it vanished? If it has been fixed: Props to the dev team for fixing a bug so quickly. Now the alpha can be playable for testing once again. Thanks for all your opinions and insights,{BB} Bloodzy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackberrygoo 1416 Posted December 15, 2015 Probably "fixed" in terms of its not happening because of what was causing it before , that doesn't mean that another issue won't cause the same problem though ... A long time ago I heard of and experienced invisible players and zombies , they went away and came back , so that shows that a problem in alpha can be caused by multiple things resurfacing . I for one hope they fixed it completely but I believe we will still see this bug more before full release as it seems like a Desync or player positioning problem :( !
