Black screening on respawn
Need More Info, NormalPublic

Description

Dont know if this has anything to do with the current bug whereby a player character has a blackened out head. In this scenario, upon respawning I have nothing but a black screen. Sounds can be heard in the background which include character movement when pressing direction keys, world sounds and other player sounds. Usual in-game announcements can be seen center screen such as the global messages etc.

Steps To Reproduce

At moment I do not know how to reproduce this bug BUT i have a suspicion that it may be due to with how long you were unconscious prior to respawning. Last night when on a server I fell unconscious after a small PVP battle with another player, a friend was trying to revive me and I was in an unconscious state for well over 5 mins. In the end I decided to respawn. This was when the bug occurred.

I did not try logging out of server then back in to see if this resolved the bug. But if I am able to reproduce it then I will see if logging out then back into server acts as a "temporary fix".

Hello leegreaves and thank you for the report.
Has this issue occurred more than once? And do you remeber by any chance how much players were on the server?

Hi Geez,

This has happened just the once to me so far. Im guessing it might be reproduced by staying unconscious for a considerable amount of time for example 5 mins or so, then respawning as at time it occurred to me I had been in an unconscious state for nearly 5 mins whilst waiting for a friend to try and revive me by force feeding/drinking me and performing cpr. When that was not succcessful and I did not wake out of consciousness, this was when I went into main menu and respawned. That was when the bug occurred.

Also I do believe the server was highly populated at time ie at least 30 players.
