graphic glitches since commisar hat is in


i don´t know if it´s related to the last patch, but since the commisar clownhat is in, i get a lot more graphic glitches.

the new glitches are mostly in the killcam. it shows headless soldiers, lightnings without a turret and so on. everything is gimped.

but the crashing to desktop seems reduced in return.

the old graphic glitches haven´t changed. i still get a lot of flickering textures, mostly on water or ammotowers, but sometimes on other base assets as well.

anyone else experiencing new graphic problems lately?
like the sleepy hollow killcam?

I played for a couple of hours last night and didnt have any issues. I did fight against a couple of commissars and I thought they all looked good.

Re: graphic glitches since commisar hat is in


i think i even had some lightnings without turret ingame and not only on killcam, but i am not sure because i was mostly trapped in alamo battles and couldn´t see shit due to all the smoke and fog.
but almost every killcam had missing parts (heads or turrets mostly). i can´t even tell if there is a connection to commisarhats because of the missing head thing. no idea if those guys had commisar hats. but i was fighting terrans and the hats were in the latest patch, so i assume there may be a connection somehow.

Ammo towers have been borked for me recently when viewed using thermal sights.

I haven't had any of these issues as of last night. But I'll watch for them later tonight and report back.

The headless infantry on the kill screen has actually been in the game for at least a couple updates now. It's fairly rare, though. (Although I often see headless infantry in VR Training while looking through the IR/NV scope.)

The "headless" Lightning is probably the same bug, but I experienced that particular manifestation with a Vanguard about a week ago.

Yeah. Somehow they managed to place two towers in the same location for some of those towers a while back. The duplication isn't obvious on all of them, though, since they line up perfectly, unlike the one in my screenshot.

Re: graphic glitches since commisar hat is in


This problem predates the commissar hats, I think, it does seem more common recently though. For some reason it mostly seems to be TR snipers who turn up headless for me, though I've definitely seen tanks missing turrets as well.

Perhaps you actually were killed by someone who's head was just recently blown off..

Re: graphic glitches since commisar hat is in


you mean someone whos head has been slammed by a hamma?

update: today i played for a couple of hours and had no headless soldiers/vehicles anymore.

hell, even the water in a biolab was flickerfree. it looked a little strange and spotty, but not striped like before.
was there any change yesterday? noticed no patch when starting the game.

Played for 2-3 hours last night.

I've encountered a few animation bugs shogun. Not to derail your thread but here are some others I have noticed as of the past couple of days;

Warping has been a little more present and hit detection has be off on a few players in fights.

Players have been disappearing/reapearing much more frequently than usual.

Skitzophrenic gun animations. The commissioner is a good one for this. Often times While reloading the weapon will break itself down into muiltiple parts then reform towards the end the animation. Also, sometimes a gunshots wont animate. (Note: this didn't happen when the gun first released, so I assumed from that, it was on their end not mine.

People who are alive appear to be dead(laying on the ground) and are able to run around still.

Ammo tower flickering

Sadly no headless people : (
Very little crashing
Haven't got the full on flicker bug

Perhaps some issues are just the servers adjusting to player loads after GU8. But I'm not really sure.

Re: graphic glitches since commisar hat is in


no problem. this thread is about strange graphic glitches that appeared lately.

and some minutes ago i encountered a new one!
i was standing in warpgate spawnroom, looking through the maindoor, when suddenly several artefacts rained down through the ceiling on the v-terminal area.
those artefacts looked like base-parts. those giant "feet" that biolabs and some other buildings have.
they clegged the view and it looked as if the v-terminal area was a closed room.
they behaved strangely when i moved. they also moved and rotated but not the way they should, according to my movements. then a minute later they disappeared one by one until everything was clean again.

started exactly when a gm called out cheaterpatrol.

oh, and i back up your findings, i have encountered a lot of warping on other players as well.

and some days ago, my max flak was broken. i fired for over an hour, at swarms of enemy aircrafts, but i got no hits at all. maybe 4-5 times i got a hit indicator in over an hour! and only when they were flying directly over my head. couldnßt hit anything more than 15m away. and i tried to lead the targets in many different ways. it´s impossible that i didn´t hit anything.

I thought the Commissar Cap was the graphic glitch. There are more?
