Hi everyone.

I had the strangest of things happen to me yesterday - and it is NOT a belated april's fools joke and which could, if reproducable, lead to a severe exploit.

If necessary, I can provide a video to PGI showing the bug in action.

What:
Inadvertently entered a free fly mode that could be exploited because I could both fly freely around the map, hearing (and thus probably engaging in in-game VOIP) and even targetting enemies.

How:
This happened after I didn't pay attention to my daily mandatory ISP disconnect in the middle of the game. I got disconnected, reconnected to the game (in which I apparently got killed in the meantime) and was in the mentioned free-fly mode without me doing anything.

I then disconnected again after taking a short video for demonstration purposes and re-spawned in my last mech as normal. While in free-fly, I tried various things (ESC, tab, tabbing out and back in etc.) in order to get my normal respawn. Didn't help.

When:
Occurred on April 1st around 2am in the morning CEST.

Where:
CW, Grim Portico, attacking

Reproduce:
Don't know
