Random heart attack death in RedSec

chenfesacw · 1 Aug 2026 at 19:53 · permalink

Me and my friend have been playing today and we both from game to game randomly die when running. No one is shooting at us and the killfeed shows up as if we were to chose "redeploy". We just die with a "X" infront of our name. It hasnt happend both at the same time, usually one of us gets the bug and the other survives.
Can't find any other posts about this. Im on Steam and my friend is on EA, if that has any meaning.

There's been some funky things happening in RedSec. Ran into a squad full of cheaters and we managed to get 2 of the guys who were confirmed cheating.
Out of no where, one of my guys "died" from basically a heart attack but it registered as fall damage. I ended up dying to gas...(???) though there was none.
I suspect it's packet manipulation and cheaters paired with bugs and exploitables.

Very strange, it keps happening today. It might be some strange interaction with the zone fire. But we die quite some distance from the line and it doesnt register as the flame killing us, just the "X" as death reason. We were in teamfights but no one in direct line of sight i.e hiding behind cover etc. Idk, still cant find any explenation or similar posts of the same bugs/exploit

I truly think it's cheaters. Might be wrong, but it makes sense. DICE doesn't give a singular ♥♥♥♥ about regulating RedSec. They barely can keep standing Battlefield matches clean lol, but at least there isn't as much blatant packet manipulation.
