The Ghosts of Firing Range

Have you noticed sometimes the ziplines in the firing range are moving, as if there's someone's using them?

Have you heard footsteps evey now and then?

Did your legend talk to an imaginary teammate on occasion?

Did the crash test dummies appear already hurt at times, although you've just entered the firing range?

Did Lifeline's revive shield pop out of the blue?

Yes friends, ghosts exist! Join the discussion and share what else they are doing in the firing range 🙂.

For those that don't actually believe in ghosts, the explanation is simple: I think the server sends updates to the wrong client sometimes, or maybe to everyone connected and training.

  • Dude same! I've seen the zip lines move in sequence as if someone's jumping one to the other, I've seen explosions, I've started a few times and the dummies have been damaged, I havent seen a lifeline shield, but I've heard lobas ring moving from one place to the other and revenants silence go off, hell I even have a video of me in the range by myself shooting at targets and a thermite hits me out of no where and I actually take damage. 

    I thought I was going crazy till I got that vid and till a few of the things listed happened to my homies. 

  • @DoYaSeeMe today!! (11/23/20) there were two holograms dropped, one from path and one from octane and ALSO a mobile respawn beacon was here ...
  • @Lazerbat_777 Yeah, other people share the server with you when you are in the firing range. That's why you can see some stuff like explosions, weird sounds, holosprays, etc.
  • I truly thought I was losing my mind!!  It almost seemed like a dev was messing with me but I guess the glitching across games could make sense.  Almost Matrixy to think about.

    My experience:

    • I've seen the ziplines swinging as if someone is on them.

    • Clear as day knifing sounds to the right of my vision.  I'm playing as bloodhound. Turn to look and my crows are over there.  Pop a q, and ult and see nothing.
    • The one that creeped me out the absolute most - a revenant holospray saying "prey" appeared behind me as I was testing out a gun. Right outside of the gun platforms. I don't even have a holospray or Revenant. This was when I felt like someone was just taunting me.  I looked everywhere and couldn't find anyone.   I also heard movement multiple times AND A GRENADE that same round.

    I imagine if we're all queuing up for the same map then they've set it up to allow us all to use one map while not being able to see each other or how we interact with the map.  And maybe that glitches sometimes?  Regardless of why its happening, it had me questioning my own sanity!!

  • The reason for this is actully just that you share fireing range servers with other players and the uppdates gets sent to both of you

    This is why they gave Wattson the PKE Meter. So you can find them lol.

    But yeah I've  had random explosions, holosprays  pop up, all kinds of weird stuff happen in the range. It be creepy af in there lol. Maybe when they revamp it & make it bigger some of that can be addressed.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 ...except that I don't have any heirloom and if I ever get the shards hers is towards the bottom of the "wishlist".
