Death by bug !

Not sure what happened with this one, a few bots took me by surprise and the next think I know I’m dead, I noticed the fap didnt seem to be working, so I think that’s what the error messages mean.

It’s odd that the system can know there is a problem to the degree of being able to tell me about it though, this must be MA’s fix for the empty fapping issue. You can still ‘not fap’ but the system tells you about it now!

My corpse will gather dust in the comfort of this :slight_smile:

You should open a support case on this if you didn’t already. Thanks for posting too.

:evilking:

Actually, I’ve not bothered support yet, as it’s only happened the once, I figured by posting others may say “yeah I’ve had this” and we can work out what’s happening and then ask support, cos I dont relly know what caused the error.

It may have vbeen the gun or the fap, I was caught off guard cos I want hunting snarks at the time!

Im going to quote Marco|MindArk since its of importance and it seems the message has to be hammered in:

If you don’t use the Support for reporting bugs, it will not be entered into the internal Task management system, and a fix will be delayed, wrongly prioritized or in other ways make PE into a worse experience than it could be. Any bug encountered must be repoted to Support for a speedy fix. It is also in the Conditions of Use.

Yeah, Ive had this :wink:

It happened once when I did a freaky swap between weapon & fap. Only managed to get one msg about it though.
Im guessing it has something to do with using your tool/weapon too fast after a swap. It happened every now and then before where I would get double reload on tool/weapon or, when switching to weapon in order to shoot, would get the fap’s reload. If you get what I mean :slight_smile:
Ive only had the msg once though, but it “felt” like one of those too-hasty-switch-&-too-trigger-happy.

Well, empty fapping IS still there…

…at least I got fapped after I died… :laugh:

As well as the Bugged AS-97 Adjusted traded to my brother and in the same time held by me in hands.

And the sugar at the end… UNDEAD ATRAX (Seems this game is getting some really weird habits lately…)

Luckily relog fixed the damn things and all worked out fine =D

The corpse with a healthbar has been around ever since trapped mobs died…
The corpse retains the creatures health for some silly reason.

I had a slightly different bug recently hunting thorio.. basically a thorio warrior killed me.. but i healed at the same time.. Stayed “alive” but with the skull and x-bones above my head.

I was able to shot the thorio and loot it.. without it being able to hit me but after it had gone I was unable to move. so had to teleport.

Only happened once and not again since.

Ozgod, yes I know, but if you read the screen shot it clearly says “If the issue persists” and I only had it this once, so I did as it told me and didnt report to support, I just brought it to the attention of the community.

I hope this is ok and that I’ve not spoiled your evening, feel free to ignore the rest of this thread. If you dont know how to ignore something, then PM me and I’ll demonstrate for you.

Yes, the VU list states that it is improved, but the issue can probably be 100% solved, as no one can guarantee a latency of 0 ms all over the world.

As everything must be verified by the server, that is the reality when it comes to quick item swaps.
