OMG WTF GIVE ME UR AUTOGRAPFS#!?!11

giggity.

Beta 053

Its a known bug.

That graphical glitch that preserves the previous frames and can make you crash is caused by your character being covered by blocks. This game doesn't prevent you from placing blocks in the same place a person is, I use the glitch to disconnect/piss off griefers and dickheads

Also, the taking damage from alt+tabbing might be a measure against AFKing. Or just a crazy bug.

All I'm saying is, it's possible ;)
Though I don't think I've received random damage ever before like that.. only bugs I've had is that non-deletion of previous frames thing..
But as said, hiding seems to work for me!

Damage caused when you return may be caused by people having shot you ;)

nope.

also Devas, I feel your pain in this, I hate this random damage.

i've only lost 1-2 damage while doing that

It happens to me every time. If I am more than half across the map, I finish my objective or get shot first. Then, Ill minimizes. Nothing worse than having the intel, minimizing, and returning to the game and dying from the glitch

Happens to me all the time, at one point i killed myself on purpose to save myself the pain of coming back to being dead, yet it still append.

It's never happened to me until just the other night while on a laptop. I never get it when I play on my computer. Both computers are running Windows 7, but I can't recall which edition it was on the laptop.

It's always puzzled me to hear people talk about this- it has never happened to me, and I do it all the time to change music. Im on Win 7 using firefox 3.6 if that makes any difference.

Alt-tabbing never usually hurts me, though it has caused that strange bug where none of the gui etc updates..

However, to try and avoid this gui bug I hid away from other players, so that my player can't 'see' anyone - and it seemed to work. Just dig a hole for yourself or burrow into the side of somewhere and then alt-tab.. works for me.

Not that I know of, I just usually minimize, and try to keep it minimized for a good 10 minutes which should be enough for me to do what it is I want to do.

Nope, not yet

I have a habit of minimizing games a lot to check things online. Whenever I do this while playing AoS I either return with 28 health or Die/Re-spawn. Is there a way to minimize the game without dying?
