Spawn unconscious, no hourglass timer

Recommended Posts

So I spawn with 25.99 blood unconscious. However, the hourglass does not show any progress, so I just stay unconscious indefinitely. I can't hit escape to respawn or abort.

What do?

I have this too.

Scenario:

I died and went to respawn like normal. "Waiting for server response" for about 10 minutes and gave up and went to another server.

I spawned in alive again, at the place I died, but with 108 blood. Now I'm stuck at the hourglass and can't do anything. I think the problem is I am alive and unconscious but with 108 blood it will take hours to wake up. I can't even chat to ask someone to come kill me.

I saw this solution elsewhere. Try it, but it didn't work for me (and I need the servers to mess up so I can try it again...)

Log in to a server

Get the "waiting for server response" screen

Quickly: ESC, respawn (kills you), ESC, abort, disconnect.

You should be back at the server's main screen. Connect again and you should be back as a newly-revived character.

That didn't work when I tried it but someone else said it worked for them.

I have this same problem also. Looking for an answer, I will try the above this arvo but am dubious of it. We will see. Let me know if you find a better solution. I'll let you know how the attempt goes.

I have no clue what caused it for me but a solution would help. If anyone has information please be generous with it. I also tried hitting respawn but it didn't work as someone mentioned so i'm stuck.

Kinda dumb that we can't choose to respawn while K.O. Is that a mod error or a base game error?

Still have the same error. Unable to get the ESC trick mentioned above to work at all. Tried a few different things but no joy. I don't think uninstalling the game and re-installing it would help because the character files are tied to the database. I have no idea how to fix this problem, any help would be welcome.


At this point I'm willing to loose any data I do have stored if it means I can play the game again.

I had this bug fixed for me. I emailed the Dev group, they "Killed" my character. Went back to spawn and I had the hour glass then suddenly died and could respawn. Had to provide my player Id and profile name.

If you disconnect / log out while in "shock" you get 5 minutes of being K.O. That's normal. Is that what happened to you people with high blood values?

For me, I waited literally 30 minutes (until the server booted me, presumably due to inactivity) and never got out of it. I'd probably still be stuck except I was in a popular enough bandit area that someone finally shot me and finished me off.

The "respawn" trick while waiting for server response never did work for me.

I always respawn unconscious with the hourglass now, and I slowly bleed to death. I can't play.

I sent a message to the devs, will let you know how things go.
