Mr-Zer0 62 Posted July 18, 2012 So, connect to the server, and I was below the stairs at one of the Elektro Power plants... There was a bandit camping the stairs above me, and my AKM ammo disappeared... So pull out my makarov and quickly fire 8 rounds directly into his head at point blank... After I shoot him down, he's still alive, and just puts a hole through my head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hobostaticretard@live.com 2 Posted July 18, 2012 De-sync maybe? That would be my best guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XDARKNESS192 20 Posted July 18, 2012 either he is a hacker or your shot never registered. i dont even think im going to update my dayz till tomorrow to many issues with it right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voddler (DayZ) 367 Posted July 18, 2012 Probably server lag, this happends, either when it's desync or when it's just general "lag" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
genghisjohn 3 Posted July 18, 2012 I had the same thing happen to me on my last death. I knew a guy was nearby (at NWAF, in SW barracks) so I was going to try to have the element of surprise on him. I didn't loot anything, I just opened the 3rd door down, got in, and closed it behind me. I had a plan to shoot him when he opened the door. All was going to plan... I heard him walking around, creeping, and being cautious. I had my M4A1 silenced ready for him. He opens the door, I shoot 15 rounds into him before he even knows what's going on. He finally snaps out of it and kills me in one bullet. Haven't played since. Not out of hatred for the game (I quite enjoy the game), it just demotivated me a bit.

Deadly7 2 Posted July 18, 2012 It happens, its just lag, de-sync, etc.., so dumb when it happens but nothing we cam do about it, other than change servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedog88 180 Posted July 18, 2012 had the same issue. was sneaking around elektro, even used the quick tap w glitch where it makes no sound when you move, i admit lol. anyways i heard another guy and went into a corner in the room i was in, waited for him, heard him coming, saw his rifle move through the door and it turned straight to me. i emptied an entire magazine into his face and even had time to press reload, went into the reload animation when he finally opened fire and killed me. almost certain he was haking or the mak is really just crap.
