What happens when the bug occurs? When returning from an out of bounds area the counter never goes away. touching any type of ground causes the counter to count down until you die. Re-spawning doesnt fix this.
What should be happening instead? when back in bounds timer no longer exists and you dont die.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Im not sure but this isn't the first time this has happened.

Last night I was in the supply ship and proceeded to get the out of bounds notice (return to battlefield) and after leaving the ship the counter continued. Anytime I touched the ground it counter would continue to count down until I died. My teammates were able to respawn me but after hitting the ground I died instantly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOv5Ll3uD6c&t=1s Here is a video of what happened.

What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. i died because my return to combat timer ran out (while i was on the supply ship in mid-air) after I got respawned the timer returned eventhough i was on normal ground, i died again, got respawned and died again.

What should be happening instead? The out of combat area timer shouldnt appear
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I dont know it started as soon as i hit the ground

I do not have any footage

Re: Out of combat area bug

★★★★★ Newbie

This same thing happened to me. This isn't a hardware issue so i'll not bother looking it up :P But here is a image

 

https://i.imgur.com/SsBgMXM.jpg

 

Showing the path the airship took, where i was marked as out of bounds (which was above a mountain that's out of bounds if you're on top of it) and when it flew past the mountain i was still marked as out of bounds. I died, got ressed by a teammate and when i landed the timer restarted and i had another 30 seconds to live before it'd kill me again as out of bounds.

 

This happened to me in game today, idk exact time but a few hours ago. 

 

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I would imagine that if you make the starting airship (The one that always spawn as the round starts) and make it land in that same spot in the picture you'll eventually get marked as out of bounds i guess? I was on the bottom half of the airship and my 2 squad mates was on the top part, and i was the only one getting marked out of bounds.

What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Just jumped off ship.

What happens when the bug occurs? The drop ship flew over the cliffs, and then I got the "death count" timer. I jumped off like 20 seconds before it ended. But the timer kept counting down until I died. I was completely flat on the ground, with 2 other teammates next to me. Neither of them died. Then they respawned me, and I INSTANTLY died again, apparently because it was still thinking i was violating the timer that prevents you from camping cliffs.
What should be happening instead? The timer should disappear....
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just try to simulate what happened.

See above....Really annoying bug that effectively ends game.

What happens when the bug occurs? Dying due to "out of bounds" when not out of bounds.
What should be happening instead? I shouldn't be out of bounds on the ground or drop ship.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Look at description given.

We landed on the drop ship and it passes over the cliffs which triggers a warning for out of bounds and to return to the zone.
We were in combat when this warning displayed and I was down. My teammate got me up and I died immediately after from "going out of bounds".
They then grabbed my beacon and went to bring me back to life. After jumping from the beacon ship I immediately died again because of out of bounds.
They did this a third time and upon landing I received a timer and died a third time.

Re: Out of bounds on supply ship, afterwards persists only when touching the gro

★★ Newbie

This same exact thing just happened to me. Once i jumped off it continued to tell me i was out of bounds. When i was jumping it would stop it, everytime i touched the ground would start back up up until it eventually killed me. Please fix these bugs

What happens when the bug occurs? After being revived on the supply ship while it was above an out of bounds area, the "Return to the Battle" countdown continued whenever my feet were on the ground, even after I was respawned multiple times (due to dying at the end of the 30 second countdown)
What should be happening instead? "Return to the battle" countdown should end after being in bounds
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Knock someone down, and attempt to revive them while the supply ship is over an out of bounds area.

A video is available at this link: https://youtu.be/KLpJq-PdkIw

 

Being revived on the supply ship while it is over an out of bounds area caused the "Return to the Battle" timer to remain in place even after death/respawn.
