[‌DYSPROssium - EDIT]

There have been a lot of reports of the same issue, so I combined all the existing threads into this big one. If you stumbled upon this thread, here is what most often happens:

1. Player gets on the flying dropship when in the game. Or player interacts with the dropship.

2. Dropship goes over some mountains and the Out Of Bounds (often seen here as OOB) starts counting down from 30 to 0. 

3. Dropship leaves mountains and timer goes away (or stays in some cases).

4. Players drop down from the ship and suddenly the timer is back to 30 and continues to count down while running on the playable ground.

5. When the player jumps, the timer stops for a brief moment. 

6. Player eventually dies from the timer. After respawn of teammates, the timer starts again at 30. 

The bug is currently investigated by the devs, as is visible on the dev tracker here.

If you have a video showing how you got the bug, please post it down below! 

Thanks,
