I was I a skirmish earlier today on Manus Peaks. The match had just begun and I had just got through hacking alfa. And defended it from a lone enemy rushing from bravo. I turn around toward the null cannon to check my flanks and go over to the ridge to look out towards charlie. As soon as I turn around and take about two steps. This minja appears out of thin air about 6 meters away from the null cannon firing a combat rifle at me. I was stuned and missed most of my shots at him and he got away. I start to let my squad mates know that there is some funny business going on. But they kinda just shrug it off. Well about a minute later one of my squad mates at alfa confirms what I had just seen. Maybe another 30 or so seconds go by and I spot this minja at the null cannon again, I start firing and chasing him toward the direction of the red line, down that path that leads to the road in front of the alfa ridge toward charlie. He goes all the way down the path and cuts around to the front of the ridge on the road and I momentarily loose sight of him. He's a little ways in front of me so I figure I'll cut over the top of the ridge and catch him on the other side, only when I get over the side of the ridge he's gone, vanished into thin air.
We got red lined shortly after that and the rest of my squad wanted to leave battle, so I ended up leaving with them.
So... WTF! Seriously...WTF!

I'm telling you this guy came out of nowhere and vanished into the void at least three times confirmed. And I saw him after that as well, even killed him once.

He didn't slip past my vision some how he was just gone.
And none of that even matters I seen the dude appear out of NOTHING plain as day!

Just really good players, that know the maps really well, there is no way he could've vanished, the invisibility glitch was fixed.
Or, it could've been some serious lag.
DUST is so broken, even my PS3 refuses to let me play it.

I have run circles around people there and been standing behind them while they scan around, and hunt for me. when redlining happens I play hide and seek with the ridge snipers (a lot less fun now that the ridge snipers have been replaced by rail tanks) Not saying that something weird did not happen, but it is very easy to "disappear" on the hill there and simply follow people around in that area without being noticed. The ridges, and nooks make it really fun stalking area.

Sounds like he was a damn good minja. I salute him.
EDIT: It's very likely he used your own psychology against you. A common tactic among ninjas is to make the enemy think you're going in one direction but as soon as they move to counter, you go another direction. The momentary confusion is enough to buy you time to get away. I have done that all the time and it worked about 80% of the time.
OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved?

I've noticed some funny things with rendering at distance, had two guys apparently standing in the open but when I looked through my CR scope they were behind a box.

I find this to be unlikely in the extreme. My "psychology" isn't in the habit of mistaking when something appears out of thin air.

I lose people all the time. If you had me, and didn't kill me right then- I'm typically gone or circling back on you.

He probably spawned in, stayed still, and then started rocking you with a basic CR, and ran off.
Someone above me said as much. I do that all the time. especially with knives.
