RANDOM TELEPORT BACK TO PREVIOUS LOCATION AND UNABLE TO MOVE

[Toha_]

i am travelling with a group of people (4) and we are in the north of pusta and then we are suddenly getting teleported back to a location somewhere in the forest where we have been before... and we cannot move (we cannot even press esc... we can only alt+f4) ...
we thought.. maybe that is a problem... on one server... but it happened now 4 times... always about 5 minutes after we joined another server .. and it ported us back ...
so what do?

[Toha_]

the inventory is saved all the time... so we looted a city... then got ported back... and we still had the loot.... after rejoining

[wargons]

[Jzpk]

I have the exact same thing for three days now.

[Toha_]

it only occured to us on one day.. we dont have it any more... i dont know why

[Menphues]

This has happened to me 6 times so far in a row. Getting frustrated.

Never used to happen but today it's been really bad.

[Toha_]

It's a know bug and the devs are not sure what is causing it yet. A possible solution my group is trying out is having an item in you hand when you a sprinting. A can of food, a screwdriver, a gun anything.

It looks like the game think you are teleporting when you are sprinting to fast and teleports you back. Having an item in your hand seems to slow you down enough that the game dosnt get confused.

Changing servers wont fix this problem. It's in the engine.

Actually I believe it is a server side issue, the servers data becomes corrupt and it places you back at your last known location, so joining another server will fix this bug.

just as i said.. its very very strange... i only had this on ONE day... and on almost ALL server i joined ( i joined about 10 different) ... and after some hours.. it was gone again.. and i was able to play again..

the funny thing is... it ported my friends with me. . (or me with my friends) ... so we were running in agroup and suddenly got teleported back to a previous location... all at once.. (we had a group about 4-5 players)... we split up... and we still got ported back.. but now... individually... so it maybe has to do something with the areas? i dont really know

its desync man, join a good server that has low ping, thing is i see it happen on good servers, not sure whats causing it

also i was getting massive desync yesterday like 10000, then it said authentication timeout or w/e
really strange kept booting me back to the lobby

Im joining only low ping servers (30-60) and i have 0 desync but im getting massive stuterring and teleportations. Its unplayable.
