The game is getting better all the time, and we do love it. Still, there's some annoyances. The plan with this thread is to collect the most frequent bugs and how they can be avoided/overcome/fixed.


The infinite spawn loop
Problem: This is a quite common one. The spawn counter counts down, and instead of spawning, you're in for another round.
Solution: Hit "esc", select role again. The next time the respawn counter hits zero, you should be on the ground running.

Sound disappears after map change
Problem: This was supposed to be fixed in the previous patch, and for some users it almost never happens anymore. Some people struggle though. After some map changes, audio can disappear. While being a benefit if you have singing 12-year-olds on the in-game voice comm, a simple mute is a preferable solution.
Solution: Restart the game. There's no way around this one...

Invulnerable enemies running on the spot
Problem: Sometimes you see an enemy using the virtual treadmill. You shoot at him and nothing happens. You can still move about freely, but nothing else seems to work.
Solution: Your connection to the server is screwed. Pull down the console and type "reconnect". Hit enter, and after a bit of loading you should be able to shoot them in the face again.

Nothing happens when you fire (in iron sight mode)
Problem: Sometimes when you use the iron sight and hold your breath in combination, your trigger finger seems to fall asleep. I don't know how to reliably reproduce this one, but it's to do with still holding down RMB when you hit the hold breath button. I think. Maybe.
Solution: Go out of sighting mode, (panic fire at the enemy,) go back in. You should be able to fire again.


If you guys have any other common bugs, type'em up and they'll be edited in :D

Apparently I actually exist! Or maybe it was the drink?

Which to be fair isnt that much of a problem :narnar:
