I think I accidentally combat logged D: I feel dirty

OK, so for starters, I logged in south of Stary, looted it, then headed to NWAF, and when I got there, I got yellow chained then red-chained and got the "no message received" and had to leave. I rejoined, and it logged me in back south of Stary where I started. Bit of a "WTF?!" moment (got good gear at NWAF), but meh, and did the same thing again.

I was kinda bored so I just looted everything quite quickly and carelessly as I wasn't real keen on hanging about. I aggro'd zeds and headed for the comms tower, held off in there and killed them all (found an AKM w/ 2 mags in there so just swapped it out killed them and changed back to M4 CCO). I got to the top and got sniped, OHK, "You Are Dead" screen. Not surprising, was a bit of a suicide run anyway and I attracted ANYONE that would have been around NWAF with all the gunfire. I went and got a drink, probably about 30 seconds, came back and decided I didn't want to keep playing so I just logged off and went to bed as it was late

I log on tonight, and surprise sur-fucking-prise it logs me on AGAIN south of fucking Stary. I feel like crap, I only hope my body didn't disappear for the guy that killed me. There was about 45 minutes of gameplay that it just didn't save at all. Has dying changed? I've only died a few times and haven't in ages... do you need to click respawn now? I waited fucking ages before logging off (which I only did 'cos I didn't feel like starting again at the time and it was like midnight) and now I've just fucking gone back.

So yeah, are you meant to always hit respawn now or was this just some fucked up breed of bug? I *ALWAYS* wait about 30 seconds before leaving the you are dead screen and last time I got killed it didn't do this to me. I would NEVER combat log. I didn't even think of it even when I had NVG's and an AS50 and got killed. It's low, and pointless. The most fun is starting again in this game.

It's a bug related to the patch.

I also don't think your body dissapeared, so your killer probably got his items.

Not your fault ;)

Edit: in order to have your progress saved you have to re-connect manualy.

You didn't happen to put on any camouflage in the session where you got sniped, did you?

It's a bug, the server you were on didn't save when it went down, and now, because you haven't logged out correctly, you keep your old save data and revert back to it randomly.

Just find another, more stable, server and disconnect and join another. Should start saving your info again unless they restart it while you are playing. Then you get the same bug.
