Fallout07 0 Posted May 28, 2012 I connected to a server yesterday and a guy appeared ontop of me and started moving around (nametags were on so he even had a different name) and of course being a bandit I shot him and killed myself at the same time. It seems the guy had spawned into me and copied all of my gear and items and by shooting him I killed myself in the process :| Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grishnakah 0 Posted May 29, 2012 Some people are reporting that their characters play while they are logged off.That was a character sheet bug. Before they upped the amount of character sheets the servers could support, quite a few people spawned as someone else, but with their own name. I spawned as someone else's character, with winchester, heaps of ammo, but on the coast, and dieing of dehydration. Although it's not a legit spawn for me, that character was the longest surviving one I've had (just hit 4 days, killed upon logging into a bandit's hideout).
