models just standing there

hey why are there models (of people) just standing there sometimes when we start a new map on a server? Like i go up to them and shoot them but they are locked in a pose. Is there a way to prevent that cuz it's very unrealistic and I waste ammo shooting at someone who isn't there! thanks for the help!

Hey, usually when someone looks to be frozen like that, chances are your models didnt load correctly. Someone is invisible running around the map. Try a vid_restart, or reconnect entirely. IF you can kill them, it probably means there just pinged out.

Its a graphics glitch. Restart the game and it goes away, or open the console and type:

vid_restart

maybe if we ask EA nicely they will sell us a fix :roll: but yeah sometimes they just dropped and the server hasn't kicked them yet, Judas pistol whipped one last night, was quite comical.
