 One of the issues with rendering distance seems to be glitches when calculating the z-position of objects.
 I've mostly seen this when tracking someone using a sniper rifle -- when they run close to certain objects (not behind them!) they vanish, and when they've gotten past the object/slope/whatever they pop up again. This has happened when they run towards me near or in some of the constructions and when players climb up ladders.
 
 Also, at a distance buildings tend to flicker in a way that makes me want to increase the z-buffer -- if such an option was available.
 
 I doubt this is the only problem (can't see it explaining the invisible swarms for one), but it's certainly one of the issues.

 +1, I get this issue a lot also. It is not the same as models disappearing after the max render distance, but the errors occurring close to the maximum render range. It seems to be a LOD issue.

 Sometimes I wish CCP employees could slap tags on the threads in this sub-forum... you know, stuff like "we have read your report", "know issue" etc. and maybe have separate sub-forums for support and bugs.
 
 Well, actually I wish they'd set up a real issue tracker.

 While I agree with everything you've said here I'd cross post this in the models disappearing thread to be sure it gets visibility. +1.

 Yeah, should do that maybe... or I could just *bump* this, maybe it will catch the eye of some dev before it falls of the first page ;).
 
 Using a forum for bug reports is kinda stupid IMO :P.
