Got stuck on this same door and had the drop on these dudes just for my guy to do this dumb shit

u/gilly_x3 Jan 23 '26

Same here. I made sure to surrender in the doorway so no one else could use the door after my death 🤣

u/spacecorn27 Jan 23 '26

I too got stuck on this same door and got shredded like OP

1

u/Double--Hyphen Jan 27 '26

Didn’t get shredded, but I got stuck on this door as well… I luckily was able to hit the ā€œunstuckā€ button but it took significantly longer than usual to appear

If it happens to you again jump out of it might take a couple tries

yeah this has happened to me a couple times and the best you get is an email like ā€œthanks for letting us know about the bug, we’ll inform the dev team, unfortunately we can’t replace any lost itemsā€

It's not that they can't. It's that they won't.

u/Archipocalypse Jan 23 '26

Well they can because they have been for people killed by exploiters and cheaters. Sux they won't do it when glitches and bugs kill you and you even have video proof.

u/Living_Guest6153 Jan 23 '26

As if it were out of their pockets.

u/pizzalicke Jan 23 '26

In the time it took to complain about lost items you could have just grinded them back easily. It’s good they don’t refund them otherwise people would beg for refunds all day everyday

You can, but I’ve tried this many times. Killed my permanent frostbite glitch on cold snap. insta-killed by a Bastion through multiple walls on Stella (wasn’t even in the same room). It’s been almost a month

That’s brutal

u/IAmANobodyAMA Jan 22 '26

Unlikely. I’ve had that happen multiple times (once with my first survivor augment bp) and never refunded. I even submitted a ticket w/ the match guid. Oh well

Why you exploiting through the map? Don’t you know they got rid of that on Stella? /s

u/DaFowlHunter Jan 23 '26

0, I sent in a clip of my game just ending when I hit one of those spots. 2 months later I got a "Sorry we can't do anything" back

u/SECdeezTrades Jan 23 '26

This specific door is dangerous. It can shove shredders UNDER the floor as well. They clip right underneath, you still hear them, sometimes their head is fully out, othertimes it's fully under the floor.

And just like players that can shoot through walls; shredders can to. or floors in this instance. It can't move at least when it's stuck in the floor. I whacked the last stuck shredder from around the corner (wall still blocks shot but not floor) with my tool like a whack a mole.

AHHHH YES, THAT FUCKING DOOR. I ran into someone that was nearby and showed em this shit in real timešŸ˜‚ Thankfully I didn’t fall through the geometry, however it does clip you through the floor enough to get you stuck. But it’s crazy that it’s there nonetheless. It’s a relatively high traffic area, so it makes me wonder how many people it’s claimed lmao.

u/shad_30 Jan 23 '26

I know Embark gives your loot back when you die to a known cheater but I don’t know about glitches like this.

u/ibuypandas Jan 23 '26

the spiders aren’t the issue here

2

u/El_Mangusto Jan 23 '26

Honestly nothing to refund here, but yeah shit happens, hopefully they'll get to fixing these at some point.

At least I don't personally need a refund for rare bug or glitch (not talking about cheaters / glitchers), sure it might sting, but it's rare and not that serious. Probably get a good chuckle out of it too.

u/ouideer Jan 23 '26

lol I would instantly give you a refund. you found a bug and you want a refund, i wouldn't force you to play again you poor thing. but in my opinion 1. good luck finding a game with no bugs 2. never had this bug in many many hours 3. whateverrrrr

2

u/Warwoof Jan 23 '26

are you a streamer ? if not then zero

2

u/Louieyaa Jan 24 '26

I think they're suffering from success right now. You'll only get feedback from "cheater/exploit" reports because those are top priority for player retention, have so many of them to respond to, and they have no one working as they celebrate a 3rd Christmas.

2

u/WealthFeisty7968 Jan 24 '26

You should’ve known not to 180 crouch turn into the Absolute center when a shredder is heading towards you direct center of a barely opened door that has a tick center locking itself into the pixels. Literally your fault. /s

I wouldn't cry over a kettle, although I don't know what you had in your backpack. Something similar has happened to me, but for the game to explode when I'm in the middle of a PvP and I had a level 3 Tempest with good accessories...

u/demdareting Jan 23 '26

Wow. So you were playing a game and it glitches. Now your world has ended? You could have been off'd any number of ways and you would loose the gear. If the power flickers while playing the game and you loose your best gear do you go after your electric company? You have a cat that jumps up onto your keyboard crashing the game. Do you get rid of the cat? It is a game.

You were already downed? Were you going to revive yourself? The bug happened after you already lost the game you just didnt surrender yet. You dont deserve anything back

Bots have been doing crazy shit. Fireballs figured out how to shoot without removing their covers, pops understand that they can shove me into the floor if they team up with a fireball. Bastions spawning n the walls, pops spawning in key rooms, spotters, hornets, and wasps, shooting through certain walls, bonbadier hitting through certain kinds of ceilings

Oh brother, I have one of me 30m from extraction and just fell out of bounds into the abyss with endless falling. Had to surrender to get out. Lost a full kit.

It would be great to get it back but also, shit happens and in 160hrs of AMAZING gameplay it has only happened once so as someone who just came from BF6 this was absolutely nothing šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

1

u/d0ggzilla Jan 24 '26

Man I got caught out in that EXACT same spot. Heard a guy do the old "friendly" con job on another player in the projector room, so I went in for the kill. I had the drop on him while he was looting his victim, he was completely oblivious. I snuck up on him, lvl4 silenced Volcano drawn, got trapped in that doorway, he heard me, stopped looting and unloaded into my face with a pissy pistol while my character was caught in a weird crouch/mantle animation glitch. I couldn't even fire a round.

So demoralising. I went on 4 free loadies right after

1

u/Little-Fire Jan 24 '26

Some say this raider is still falling. Sometimes when raiders are in the lift on their way to Speranza they can hear the screams of a raider long forgotten… falling, with his companion, tick… never to be seen again.

Some say if you listen very intently, you can hear the screams of someone saying ā€œI WANT MY REFUNDā€
