    ok so my friend went and joined my game. From a different house not mine and i had a friend playing at my house with me after i no-scoped he twice when he had the shotgun he quit. Later on my friend killed me and my sniper droped and when it hit the ground it fired i really don't know if it was a lag because it was on XBL but we were both playing at my house so i don't think so. If you can help explain this here is the link-Bungie.net : Community : Forum Topic Listing : Forum Reply Listing

    Maybe you fired it right before you died, and it lagged.

    DUDE>>> EPic screen shot...lol... I totally love it... Send a message to bungie... they could be able to tell you...because I don't think they set up a system of the gun some times firing when it hits the ground... that would be so sub real!... Again..nice shot...you should retake it..as a first person kill..if it hit any thing...

    Did the green player have the rifle? If so, then this isn't too rare of an occurrence.
    I can't explain it, but it's happened to me many times, not killing me, but shooting me.
    When a player dies and his gun drops when he was trying to shoot, the gun will sometimes fire one more burst before stopping.

    It would be awesome if the sniper hit someone in the head and he you got a sniper kill and a kill from the grave at the same time.

    Lol...at...above...post

    But when it goes off it can't damage you, as soon as it leaves someone's hands the server cancels the shot.

    Maybe just some accident. Weird but it might be like the doubleshot in halo 2, like an automatic shot right after the 1st one. IMO it's just lag, or a glitch and it's harmless.

    But, if the server ignores the fact that you can't shoot when you die, can't it ignore that fact that there's no damage done?

    Can you please use periods, and commas? It's really confusing without them.

    Crazy how that happened though...

    i think that happens when you are shooting as you die, usually happens on campaign and stuff, i seen a br firing off by itself caus someone died whilst shooting
