Are you using any software with an overlay? Yes
If yes, can you list them here? Nvidia Shadowplay
If you disable this software, does that have any effect? No
Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)?
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)? Bangalore
Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. Just north of Sorting Factory
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. Moving closer and further away from my teammate, who was invisible until 15m close
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? 5
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 05.02.20 14:15
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Teammate or self who is playing Bangalore, wearing the legendary skin *Apex Overdrive*, will have an INVISIBLE player model except for their head and weapons at any distance over roughly 15-20m, depending on the scope equipped. Testing in firing range revealed a 6x scope has pop in at ~60m, and 3x scope has pop in at ~30m. This is while normal aiming/looking and while ADS. I am now sure that you are INVISIBLE to opponents and team mates while this bug exists. There is nothing needed to use this bug, simply equip the Apex Overdrive skin for Bangalore.
What should be happening instead? Bangalore player model should be visible, NOT invisible
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play as Bangalore with the Apex Overdrive legendary skin and look at the player while further than 15-20m away, depending on the scope equipped. They will be COMPLETELY INVISIBLE except for their head, the weapon equipped, and the weapon on their back. No other steps are needed to reproduce this bug, other than equipping that skin for Bangalore.
This is a repeatable, major game breaking glitch where the Bangalore player is invisible with the Apex Overdrive skin. I am now sure that you are INVISIBLE to opponents and team mates while this bug exists. There is nothing needed to use this bug, simply equip the Apex Overdrive skin for Bangalore.
I could not upload a video here due to file size limits, so I am linking to a streamable showing the invisible player model: https://streamable.com/25cwt
I am using the latest Nvidia driver's, 442.19, that were released a day or so ago.
