New Bug PC: Non existent enemy!!


(Cep) #1

OK just got out of a game where I was getting killed continuously by this guy called Silli.

I would be walking into an area with no one around and BAM I’m dead by Silli. I was beginning to think the guy was cheating somehow since I could not see how the hell I was getting killed constantly without even seeing the guy.

The trouble is I can’t see the player at all, and I am not just talking a completely invisible opponent with no name or icons, I am talking a player who doesn’t even turn up on the team/scoreboard!!!

Yet he is still killing and being killed! He even makes the end ranks!!

Cheat? Or Bug? I opt bug! :confused:

I know the invisible player issue isn’t new but don’t they usually show up on the scoreboard? Seems like it may be a different issue.

The Silli bot not showing up on the scoreboard is probably NOT a bug. If a player joined near the end of the match and took Silli’s spot, Silli would be missing off of the scoreboard and could still get the award for best “whatever”.

In your screenshot, it looks like someone joined the game on the blue enemy team when you took the shot, as there’s a blank player spot at the bottom. Perhaps that was Silli’s spot.

I see what your saying Sin but he didn’t leave the game he was there throughout killing and sometimes being killed, not at any point did he leave and come back in.

This is the old bug.

It happens from time to time and I had it yesterday too with a guy on my team. His name shows above an invisible char with an empty health or ammo bar to see for a medic and soldier. The name does NOT show up on the scoreboard. So a full server would appear to have 7v8 on the scoreboard.

I also always get “the sound bug” within minutes when playing with such an invisible guy.

Reconnecting fixes it.

No you guys are not getting it, THE GUY IS COMPLETELY INVISIBLE, NO NAME, NO SCOREBOARD, NO HEALTH BAR it is not the same bug!

You dont get it.

If it happens on a player IN YOUR TEAM: you see his name TAG ONLY.

If it happens on a player IN THE OTHER TEAM: you see NOTHING.

Both dont appear in the scoreboard or anything. Its just a matter of the team you are in :slight_smile:

If only i didn’t have the (HUGE obscuring)player names turned off i’d be able to remember if i saw him or not.
