Subject: Sticky Glitch?

I was playing on my friends account the other night and I stuck someone and they went into armor lock. His teammate came to assist and when I seen the first person come out of armor lock, the grenade was still stuck to him and I hesitated because I was sure I was going to get the double, but long story short I ended up dying and the guy was still walking around in the kill cam with the grenade still attached to his leg.

I'm not trying to QQ or ask what could have been done differently, but I was wondering how common this is? This has happened before, but only like twice so it seems pretty rare. It seems odd that it deactivates it when this occurs, since even shed plasmas still explode. Does the animation still stay on their bodies after they die? Sorry, this just seems like a strange glitch to me and I wonder if anyone else has experienced this.

I've never heard of or seen such a thing, but armor lock is supposed to get rid of plasma grenades. It was most likely a visual or code glitch wherein the grenade was still attached (or only appeared to still ber attached) to his leg.

This would be the most common answer to the question, or when the sticky was thrown the person had lag

Lol, yeah he was just running around with it on him. As to whether or not there was a host change at the time this latest incident occurred, no it didn't that time, however now that you mention it, I had seen it glitch after a host migration before where it stayed attached and unexploded. It was weird, the guy went into armor lock right after it stuck and was still attached for the duration and when he popped out of AL it remained. This was probably the second or third time I have experienced this happening.

I think I might have had that happen to me, but I seen lag ones too so I dunno.
