    Bug or Hack?

    Yesterday while playing I killed a sniper near a spawn point at fairly close range. Then about 3 seconds later a clan mate killed him again another 3 seconds go by I get killed by the same sniper. There where no medics nearby. In fact there were no other players near the sniper. Is there a no time to spawn hack? I know this question shouldn`t be answered because it will start all the idiots searching for one. In fact don´t answer it just keep a look out. So I will ask is there a known bug that could cause this.
    No I didn´t get a screen shot but on screen was my kill, my clan mates kill and the snipers kill all within the normal spawn time. We were on ts at the time and were both certain about what happened with no lag issues for both of us???

          yes, you can assign a nickname. You cant do it in the menu, you must go into the subfolders, to profile and change one of the 3 names. One name is account name one is screen name.

            The reason we can tell that there were no medics near him is that he was in clear view on Mashtuur city Backyard flag. He was between the "garage" and the building next to it and we were on the embankment looking down from about 30m (relative distance). Even allowing for lag etc I think that 2 of us on ts would have noticed a medic comming to revive him (If not it doesn´t bode well for upcomming clan matches lol). As for a sniper squad with the same names in exactly the same place at the same time, well sounds a little unlikely but these things can and do happen. Was really just wondering wether someone else had experienced the same sort of thing?

              first off, u need to learn if there is 1 sniper, there are 2 snipers, then if there is 1 sniper there is usually a medic near by to revive him

                I have watched enemies go down by my DAO, as i was taking north base
                in wake island under the covered building in rear..only to see them
                re-spawn withing 2-3 secs right in front of me, over and over. When I
                called that player a hack, I was banned.

                Ive seen it more than once..

                  Servers can alter their respawn times..... cant they?
                  I thought they could, but might be wrong.

                    The normal spawn time is 15 seconds, and the server admin can change it if they want.

                      Not on a ranked server, must be 15 seconds for the "Man down" setting.

                        Thanks for the correction! I thought is was all servers.

                          Next you will all be telling us to buy glasses as we are both over 30 and obviously couldn`t see a medic reviving someone under our noses. lol.

                          Edit For those who think we didn´t see the guy being revived!

                            Buy glasses. Unless you had a UAV over him, you can't make the statement that he didn't have a medic nearby. Maybe the server lagged and the medic was running up and revived him?

                              iirc that only works in offline mode.
