<![CDATA[Everyone was skeletons]]>

If there is a bug reporting thread let me know. I'm sure itd be the most popular spot on the forums.

ANYWAY, Playing last night and all players, friendly or not, were skeletons. To be honest I really wouldn't normally realize this. But this time, I TOO was a skeleton. This meant in first person I could not see my character's hands and everything appeared to float. This bug has been persistent since the beginning. It used to be funny/cool at first, but at this point I'm so used to it I don't even think about it. Please make it a rarity again.

This is a network bug of some kind (possibly also related to some kind of drive loading bug).

The skeleton is the default model for players, then the server is supposed to tell you what the player parts (face type, body type, etc...) is and what clothing they are wearing.

Sometimes you never get that information and the other player ends up staying as the skeleton model until they leave your view or die and get re-loaded once they get back into range.

It is extra weird that this happened to your player character though. I don't think I've ever heard of that happening before.
