When my friend was travelling across the map to meet up with me he kept on getting teleported back a certain distance. Solnichniy to Nizhnoye, Dolina to Staroye (x2) and Pass Oreshka to Guglovo.
The physical distance traversed seems to be similar before the major rubberbanding occurs. Only happens when strictly running for long distances.
When We finally met up, when we started travelling together we BOTH were rubberbanded back (Pass Oreska to Guglovo)
Other than this occuring 5 times throughout a session haven't tried to reproduce
I am getting this same issue, except after being teleported I lose all control of my character, cannot hit esc and leave the server and am forced to forcefully close the game. (Through Alt+F4 or Ctrl+Alt+Del)
That a desync issue with the server keeping up with your location. It is known, and suggested to not run for long periods of time without stopping and allowing it to catch up. When it has happened to me there was a "link of chain" icon that popped up and turned yellow, I assumed it was a server link warning, when it turned red a few seconds later I get kicked.
This is based on my experimentation, but this seems like it's related to exploiting the bug that lets you run crazy fast by punching while you run.
I've only ever experienced this problem after trying that. If I run/jog/sprint normally I do not experience this problem. I've intentionally tried this on poor ping servers (for me).
I was able to reproduce. While running with nothing in your hands (not exploiting the punching bug, which i didnt even know about) it will snap me back after a distance. I do not get a desync icon at any time, and after it snaps me back I cannot use any keys and have to alt-f4.
Happens to me when I run with fists up, I get set back a lot and can't move or exit, had to alt-f4 or ctr-alt-del. Happened 5 times, then I stopped running long distances that way. I suspect some anti-teleport-hack thinks you are hacking.
