Unkillable enemies, or positions?

Two days ago, on the snowy map with the rail stations (not sure of the name, it has North Rail, South Rail, Warehouse, Assembly Hall on it), myself and 2 other russkis happened upon an SMGer prone in the sandbags. I was an SMG gunner and my 2 other comrades were riflemen I believe. We all stopped, aimed, and fired - we all hit, he lived.

I didn't quite "empty the magazine" (I only spray in BF2 :P), but I shot at least 3-5 rounds into him, and the 2 riflemen shot as well. He got up, looked around and killed all three of us.

Now I figured it was some freak occlusion thing (like when I bounce a grenade off of an invisible wall that's slightly higher than the cover I'm behind looks), but here's another report, this time of someone lying in water and being unkillable.

This happen to anyone else?

Yeah I heard someone people talking about that in teamspeak. I think it is probably a bug because the guy was later shot dead.

That's supposed to happen. Since this game is very realistic, occasionally you'll happen upon Jesus who has returned to earth as the second coming of Christ. As he is Jesus, he is immune to bullets.

Other times it's a Jedi or a ninja. Both of those cannot be shot either.

It happens. I think I have been blessed once or twice. A couple of times in recent games I'vebe caught out in the open and have taken multiple hits yet still manage to drag myself to cover. Last night I think a guy who attacked me as I ran past his camping position emptied an entire magazine before he finally dropped me. Maybe the game has a random strength/stamina where sometimes you can take a large amount of hits and others the slightest wound will drop you.

Where were you on the map Marconi? Their is a certain area where you cant shoot the allies because it is too close to their spawn. They had a problem in the beta with the area being way to big and they made it smaller. That might of been what happened.

That other guy (link in my initial post) is reporting a full magazine emptied. That's beyond any random factor. Also, there were 3 of us, and I had an SMG; most of the time I can drop a foe with just a single shot. Certainly possible, just very unlikely.

Approaching Warehouse from our side

Nowhere near spawns. Dunno about the other poster.

I have shot people in the face with a sniper, from a "stabilized" position, while they were completely still and have seen them live.

I've shot someone (who I presume was afk briefly) on Odessa with 3 rifle clips (

at Strag), 2 pistol clips, tried to bayonet him and tried to bash him with the pistol. Didn't work. He returned eventually, began to move, and engaged me. As such, I tried to kill him again and this time it worked.

hmmm I think was on the recieving end of one of those bullets kilrog.... It painted my head red on the little damage indicator but that was it.

I'm compiling a list of these invincible locations.

So that I can... avoid them.

Yes.

I will AVOID them!

And you must all help me, so that I do not accidentally go prone in one of these positions and mow down the enemy!

That would SUCK!

So yeah. Tell me where they are! I must know. To... avoid them.
