I assume they're a graphic bug or a property of the network - Aces High isn't complicated enough to have ghosts in it, surely?



I see those also when close to the ground - they're like shadows running out in front of you .

I see these all the time as well.  Distracting.  Also my dog's feet smell like Fritos.  But that's another story, for another time.

Kreacher made a map that we were trying in H2H, just drive down hills in GVs and go super fast.  Took an LVT, hit the water at about 200MPH and just kept on going, faster and faster, deeper and deeper.  I can't remember how deep or fast I went until I'd had enough.  Also had a similar situation the first time but I went straight down.
Who are you to wave your finger?
