I hope i wasn't the only person hoping the Pick Squeak was going to squeak every time you hit something. That would be worth the V-Bucks.

This video perfectly illustrates a bug (imo one of the bigger ones) that is still here and has been for months now.

Bodies stay in the game for a few seconds after they die. Notice how the pick hits 'nothing' but squeaks before hitting the floor. (15 secs in vid) There's even damage numbers floating up because the guy didn't die fully but left.

This is also the reason why you can't pickup weapons when you kill someone. The invisible dead body is blocking the items for a few seconds.

On ps4 the autoaim also kicks in after the body is visibly gone.

This is a very common occurrence. Just watch any streamer for a few games and count how many times they can't pickup items.

Can we get some sort of confirmation that this is on your radar? /u/mrpopotfs /u/epicericsw /u/dandadadandan

It’s on our radar. Thanks for the in depth report.
