I was in Mavericks server yesterday and a guy joined at around the 4 min mark with 58 res. He was actually able to instantly fade. I don't believe he was hacking or anything but he was lagging (around 200 ping), everyone on our team attributed it to his lag interacting with the game somehow.

Sorry i forgot to take a pic.

Thanks for your time.

    I've seen something like this happen too.

    It's a rarely glitch that saves your PRES when you leave a server. It's should return your PRES when you rejoin to exactly same server and previous round is not over. But sometimes it's may return your saved PRES to the next round.

    It's happens to me sometimes, but I don't figured out how to reproduce this.

    It could be that the guy crashed and rejoined the same round. In that case, his PRes will be restored to the value he had before he crashed.

    ScardyBob,
    There must be something weird going on with that system because the guy this happened to was very surprised ( or at least acted like it). He did say he was in a different server right before he joined, don't know if he crashed in that one or not.

    We've seen this bug before, but it's extremely rare and nigh impossible to reproduce.
    If anyone finds out how please pm me
    Thanks
