This bug also makes your character be able to run underwater until it dies. When it dies you can hear the character crying in pain and you are not able to respawn.

The player is forced to exit and enter to the server again, you spawn swimming in the ocean even though the "You are dead" message appeared.

The character only stops when colliding with an object.

Do you know if this isn't implemented so people don't have to constantly hold downing W?

I don't really think so , I am sure it's a bug :/.

Oops, I was playing in a server running an earlier version of the game.(THIS BUG HAS BEEN FIXED) Move on survivors :).

Fix'd
