Random complete energy drain?

Post » Thu Dec 31, 2009 3:29 am

This is something I've noticed to be happening more frequently lately. Anyways, I'll be walking or sprinting around, not being shot at, no enemies in sight, when suddenly all of my energy completely drains to 0%. It's at this point where I'm uncloaked and slow from this random energy drain that I'll get killed. I've read people saying it's stuff on the ground that causes it, but lately I've started to look around to find if there's like a flame, or spinning sawblade, or a thumbtack on the ground that is responsible for this random drain. All I've seen so far is a cinderblock, a picture frame, and a shopping cart. Seriously WTF there are enough problems in this game as it is without some random unseen influence draining my energy all the time. If this was a intentional map design, what moron thought that was a good idea? A flaming lava patch I could understand, a spike pit, maybe, even burning cars I could see draining my energy, but climbing stairs? Come on crytek isn't the mp f**ked up enough as is?

Yeah but this is one of many reasons why the games getting patched. Also bumping into your teammates drains your energy too.

I was just going to post what the above states. If I bump into a teammate I will loose my Armour. I also have noticed if you bump into a car or something destructive I will sometimes loose my shield. On a similar note, If I hit a car (kick, grenade, etc..) and come back by it a little later in the game I will die immediately. Almost like a proximity mine (Good old 007 call out right there)

If I could make a WTF montage on Crysis 2 then it would definitely be of the 50+ times I had my killstreak ended by exploding cars.
