    Got jumped by.. Something else in DZ

    So I was trotting along in DZ East, and I passed by the safe room when I suddenly got flashed/disoriented and my character stumbled a bit, at first I thought I was getting jumped by Hunters, it kinda had the same vibe, but then a group of NPC's spawned out of nothing and a yellow bar Outcast looking dude with a yellow hood and a trash can lid for a shield rushed me, and right before I killed him they disappeared as quickly as they spawned

    Thought I had seen most of what this game had to offer so far, but never seen this type of enemy before

    Was this some kind of bug? Or have I missed something? Couldn't find any info on this

    I can't speak for the DZ, but I have been noticing more bugs with enemies spawning out of thin air right in front of me in the LZ the past week.

    I know that some area in the DZ is booby trapped, such as a type of grenade stringed with a trip wire.
    So maybe you ran into one of these?

    Perhaps! Can't say i've noticed those in DZ.. But an Outcast hoodie with a trash can lid shield? Never seen that in-game before!

    First I see people talking about lurkers in the sewers and now this? If it happens again, be sure to snag some pictures or another video if you can!
