Hey, If this is old news, or already discussed sorry but I don't hear other people with this exact problem. What the SS below is showing is what happened when I got in a vehicle. As soon as I did the vechile vanished, and blue screen of death occurred, when I exited I was fine, the vech was gone and I couldn't fire until I restarted the game. This is an issue because it happens about 1 of every 10 times but only with nod.

IIRC this is caused by the Blue Hell glitch which is already corrected.

yea, this has been discussed and hopefully they are gonna fix it. You were probably misled by the name but most people refer to this as blue hell, but sometimes it is grey.

If you get the glitch rejoin the server to fix it.

The colour is determined by the sky colour below the map. Blue hell is simply when the game has a server/client collision issue and makes the vehicle propel itself with exhilarating speeds down under the map. Because it is going so fast, it skips the death-zone under the map and just keeps going.

You can simulate this by editing your vehicle stats when hosting a one-player game (console command edit_vehicle) and settings the aero-dynamic drag to a negative number and driving downhill.

EDIT: Rector st?

Yah, sometimes vehicles can be really weird. Here's my strangest one. If i remember right I was messing with a moby and pushing him against the agt with my apc and next thing i knew I was up there and my apc died.

Blue hell is actually when you are high in the sky, not if you are below the map. If you are below a certain limit, you will respawn.

The last screenshot is probably blue hell as well, but just the improbable case that you are not actually that high in the sky so that you can still see the map. With blue hell you usually end up about a million times as far away as you are on that screenshot, hence the only thing you see is the usually blue sky.

I was told by crimson a while back it was below the death zone under the map, hence why if you get out of your vehicle you'll keep falling forever.

Well, there is no death zone as such. Wink It just checks the Z position. If it's below a certain limit the object (player/vehicle) will die. Hence there is no way to be below that level and not get killed. But yeah, it doesn't really matter now it's fixed. Wink
