Summarize your bug Sometimes players that get shot dead get stuck in the downed view. The timer starts at and is stuck at 0 zeconds, you can't request a review or skip to deploy. The background music/FX is playing really loud.
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Unfortunately I haven't noticed a pattern that you could use to reproduce it, maybe the DICE developers could take a look at the server logs if they reveal anything. Loads of other people were complaining about this issue yesterday, and now it happened to me for the first time. There seems to be other people reporting this bug as well.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sometimes players that get shot dead get stuck in the downed view. The timer starts at and is stuck at 0 zeconds, you can't request a review or skip to deploy. This means that you either have to exit the match, or wait for the match to finish. I'm not sure if other people can revive you if you are stuck at this state, at least no one came to review after ~10 minutes of being stuck in this state.
What should be happening instead? The respawn timer should be running and you should be able to skip to deploy
I'll be glad to provide my DxDiag privately, if needed.
This only seems to happen to me while playing in custom portal matches, I haven't had it happen in all-out warfare.
It happened to me again, for the second time today.
I was playing All-Out Warfare at Kaleidoscope. Frustrating, because the only way you can cure it is to leave the game or wait for the match to end. This time I was even playing in a party and for obvious reasons, I couldn't participate anymore. ☹️
Someone else playing got stuck as well (in the same match, while I was stuck):
If I recall correctly, when people were getting stuck yesterday, it was on Kaleidoscope as well. I'm not sure, if this is map-related, more likely to be a general problem as someone here reported getting stuck on Portal matches. But maybe it's a lead.
This problem seems to be plaguing the game right now, can the community get a confirmation this has been acknowledged? Thanks! 🙂I've had this happen only once but it was on Hourglass, I think. So I don't think it's map specific.
- @GRUExylo Thank you for the additional information.
I'm hoping we get an update from EA/DICE soon regarding this.
This just happened to me as well on conquest.
unable to kill myself, unable to be revived and timer keeps resetting to 34 as the UI is blinking like a strobelight.
