Anniv update - enemies sinking in ground geometry

Game mode: Single-player
Type of issue: Bug
Server type: PvE


After the anniversary update, the better part of humanoid enemies I kill tend to sink into the ground, clipping into the terrain and barely showing body parts above the ground. This makes it difficult to harvest and loot. Happened in a number of different NPC camps in the desert, in various locations and elevations, even on very flat terrain.

Hopefully a fix isn’t too difficult to implement, because frankly, it’s both annoying and breaks immersion.


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Go to enemy camp
  2. Kill any number of NPC human enemies
  3. Dead bodies sink almost fully into the ground’s geometry

Can confirm. Happens to about 85% of the thralls you kill.

Same for me. It’s the same bug that was in testlive version. I’m quitting the game until it have been fixed.

Hey @Curratum

Our team is aware of this issue and they’re working on a fix. It’s mostly visual, moving the cursor around the corpse’s position will make its parts flickers, but the corpse should still be there.
Apologies for the frustration and thanks for your feedback.

No worries, it’s not THAT much of an issue, just something to get in the burner for the next patch!

Thank you!

Have been experiencing similar especially around the Black Galleon area. Glad it’s being looked at.
