How were our posts not serious? .-.

Happens to me at a rate of at least once every 10 minutes of playtime. I can only see cosmetics - e.g. hats, weapons etc.

Invisible players on the other team has been a problem since day 1. Alt+tabbing in full screen mode, internet problems, or hardware problems can cause this glitch. Any time you feel stutter, just press a bind that records a demo and stops it. (It is especially useful if you have this problem a lot, but everyone should have this bind handy just in case) Valve had said they fixed this issue a while ago, and they did, but I believe it came back with a vengeance.

The invisible players with cosmetics I've found has been a problem with spectating. If you stay in third person you will never see an invisible model, but if you stick to pov of one person they will constantly be invisible. (which is why you will never see an enemy with floating cosmetics in 6's because you can't spectate the other team) Not sure how to fix this client side without dying and respectating them and switching povs. If that person dies, they will become visible again as long as you aren't still spectating them.

this is going to be the longest thread in a while, everyone i know and myself has experienced this multiple times and it is actually detrimental to gameplay

kohaku goes invisible on me almost every day
I never see it happening with enemies though

Been experiencing this bug since approximately January. Players are invisible except for their cosmetics. This only happens to me for players on my team. This happens to me while playing in game and does not go away when a demo is recorded.

A scout was able to 1v3/4 my team on mid in a pug because he was invisible :<

Does anyone have video evidence? I remember a few casts that had this problem, but in looking back through older invite matches I can't find any.

It's client side. You must recreate the problem on your own or find a vod of someone having the problem.

iirc, in STVs, all you have to do is spec someone's firstperson when a new round starts and they become invisible.

If you think about it, Valve is essentially playing this like the companies they aim to not be like, such as Activision and EA. They are more worried about making money than they are about making a good game.

I also experience this problem in garry's mod. But not in other source engine games..

it blows.

This bug happens to me a lot and is very frustrating.

It's happened many times to me personally and it's game breaking in competitive and annoying in pubs.

Here's a random reddit post that was made about it that has some video evidence: http://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/193be0/invisible_engineer/

It's worth noting that this is separate from the invisible players after alt tabbing. In that scenario, they are completely invisible including weapons+cosmetics.

This glitch, in my experience, occurs without alt tabbing, and leaves random teammates invisible, but you can still see their weapon and cosmetics.

I've been having some crazy ass visual bugs, invisible sentries/other engineer buildings, floating hats/misc items and most annoying people having their the crit glow on their weapons for no reason. The crit one has only happened once or twice but freaks me out the worst of the three.

Pretty sure I haven't played any sort of pug or match in a long time that HASN'T had at least one instance of the bug. PLEASE fix this, probably the #1 gameplay bug in tf2 right now.

I see invisible players constantly, record "demo" plus stop usually fixes it but its still a pain in the ass when i die to an invisible sniper or kritz or something. there's enough random bullshit when i pub to have to deal with invisible spies too :/

If I play for 30 minutes, I'll likely encounter 1 instance of the "floating cosmetics" bug where a player is completely invisible aside from his cosmetics.

My frame rate has also taken to freaking out a lot more lately (cruise along at 300+ and then dip to 40 for no real reason) - since about the time this bug popped up - I also see cosmetics simply floating in place - much like the cartoon character that has run off and left his clothes behind.

this has been a glitch since the dawn of hats

Yeah, it happens to me frequently in PUGs. Not so much if at all in pubs.

Happens to me on occasion, too. I never even considered that it could happen during comp matches. They need to do something about this.

Happens all the time, pretty rageful it has yet to be fixed.

I can confirm that this happens often.

I've asked the UGC and Reddit communities to submit tickets and evidence as well; hopefully this helps expedite a fix!

i have the invisible models from my teams too and its really annoying.

But wouldnt it better that we all create our own support ticket and references this thread so at least more staff people know of this issue and then relay their awareness of this issue to the manager/developers etc

When I asked Reddit and UGC to submit tickets, I made sure to tell them to link this thread and encouraged them to submit more evidence of their own
