Execution C4 disappears after planting


(doxjq) #1

Was just playing execution before on Overground.

Started on the attacking team. Armed the C4 at site A. The C4 disappeared and both the pylons closed (like the ones usually do that you do not arm at) and that was it. Nothing could be done from there.

The other team killed us all so you would think the round would end, but the round kept going as the game must have thought the C4 was still armed, but when the round timer ended it gave us the loss any way.

Server was “Aus Execution 7v7 - 05” btw, and it happened at approximately 12.15am local time (UTC +12) … I don’t have a demo but I dunno if you guys can review footage some other way maybe?

Thanks for the info @rancid We’ll check this out.

Bump. This is still happening. Had it happen yesterday and today on the new Gallery map. Enemy team plants C4, pylons close up, C4 disappears and the defenders are given a win regardless.

There is another bug somehow similar. If the defenders kill the planting person pretty much at the same time the plant is finished it tells you the C4 has been planted, but the charge is nowhere to be seen. After that we killed all attackers. The round didn’t end and the counter continued in going down. As soon as he has reached 0 seconds the defenders won.

this tends to happen if the planter’s ping is about 200 or greater. chances are high that a planter with that ping will always, and i mean ALWAYS plant a disappearing bomb.

i think some servers dont have this issue, though, i cant remember, but frequently i have to drop the bomb because i cant rely on that thing being planted when i play on EU servers

I’ve had it happen to me a handful of times, and my ping is sub 30 on a stable 100/30 fibre connection. It might be ping related, but if it is I’m pretty certain it isn’t only ping related.
