Players just stood?

[Jimb0b 17]

Yesterday i went to electro (sniper hill i believe its refered as) and right at the top of the hill was 2 dudes just stood next to each other with their pistols pointing at me,i thought shit i'm dead here so opened up with my AKM and emptied it into them.

They didn't shoot back or move and didn't seem to take any damage either so i moved behind them,reloaded and shot them in the head several times and no death or bleeding,i could loot them.

I have seen this before once when i found a guy outside a barracks just stood who didn't die either,i could loot him as well.

How/why does this happen?

It's a bug with dead bodies.

Nope its a bug with living bodies :P People are getting clones or doppelgangers when logging in and they can be looted.

See my ealier post here > http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/71950-doppelganger-clone-every-login/

clothing dupe method

they made dupe bodies so people would shoot at them first. lets them know someone is looking for them so they can leave.

also used for getting extra satchels and it resets your food/drink to green.

whole bunch of others reasons, but those are the most common to find them on dobryy.
