This is a bug with the Christmas skins when you upgrade them and when you pull out the gun, they show the packaging of the gun through walls. Don’t recommend using that skin until it gets patched.
A couple of notes to address here:
For BlastX, there is a known issue where you can see an ally's weapon during buy phase if they buy, sell, and rebuy the weapon. As far as we have seen this is only something that occurs from buying/rebuying the weapon and nothing else and so it should never be visible during a round. Additionally with that bug you only see the wrapping paper, not the gun.
In this screenshot, the weapon in question looks like a vandal, which would eliminate this from being a BlastX issue anyway.
Either way this shouldnt happen ever and we'll be looking into it
Just to note that the bug isn't just limited to buying or rebuying the gun, here's a twitter clip of it happening to Rara in the middle of the round:
thanks for this report. the more instances and examples we have of this the better. That there shows up as a clear example of the issue we see with BlastX where the wrapping paper stretches.
I agree it looks like a vandal, however if you watch the entire round, you will see killjoy kill our protagonist with a spectre and at the end of the round, when killjoy dies he drops a BlastX spectre. Almost 99% certain that this is related to the BlastX skin.
oh interesting. good callout yeah i only saw through the clip, and i just saw the whole round and you're right. someone else in the thread also shared an instance of this where we could see a spectre with the same issue, not just the silhouette through the wall but also the "tearing and falling" of the paper too. im collecting all of these examples for the team so the more we have the better it will be for us to understand.
Also a similar bug accoured to me in Dm that a particular player became totally invisible, his gun was onlt visible near his legs and was running around and killing me. Also other frienda were there too but hapoened only to me. Even after respawn he was still invisible.
that sounds insanely odd. do you have a video of this? the gun at the feet actually indicates to me an issue where the character model failed to load and is probably not the same as this instance but would be good to see anyway if you have it
as a heads up, we've fixed this issue and it will be rolled out in the next patch!
