How Does The Navy Seals Bug In Guide Instruct Players To Reproduce It?

If you've been following the community chatter about the 'navy seals' bug, the guide lays out a surprisingly precise sequence to reproduce it, and it reads like a little performance — timing, position, and the right environment all have to line up. The guide starts by listing the prerequisites: a specific map area (the naval base or ship deck), an unbroken game session (no recent teleport or reconnect), and a loadout or stance the game recognizes as 'rigid' — usually a heavier weapon or a particular emote equipped. It’s careful to note the patch window where the bug was observed so you don’t waste time trying this in a version where it’s already fixed. The tone feels community-forward: they encourage trying it in private matches first and report results back so the write-up can be refined, which is honestly one of the things I love about these kinds of guides.

The reproduction steps themselves are step-by-step but hinge on a very tight timing window. The guide tells you to position yourself near a specific object or collision seam — a metal railing, doorway, or ladder where the animation and collision boxes overlap awkwardly. From there you perform an action sequence: enter the narrow collision, immediately switch to the heavy weapon or the emote, and then trigger an interaction (vault, crouch, or quick melee) within a fraction of a second. The key phrasing in the guide is something like “walk into the seam, press the interaction, then swap weapon before the animation locks” — and it emphasizes that the swap must occur during the animation transition. It also mentions variants: sometimes a quick grenade cook or a short sprint before the interaction helps sync game states, and in other cases idling for half a second after swapping stabilizes the effect. The guide includes tiny timing windows (e.g., 0.2–0.4 seconds) and suggests practicing with practice mode to get the rhythm down.

Finally, the guide explains what you should expect and how to troubleshoot. If it worked, you'll see a brief clipping animation, a stuck ladder/rope visual, or your character entering a partially invisible state — essentially the game thinks you're in two states at once. If it fails, they recommend slightly adjusting entry angle, repeating the swap faster, or confirming you're on the exact map version. The write-up also theorizes why it happens: the engine queues an animation and a collision change in the wrong order, letting a player occupy geometry the developers didn’t intend. There’s a friendly note that devs usually patch this quickly and to avoid exploiting it in ranked or public matches. I find these community guides delightful — they’re part detective work, part choreography, and part shared mischief — and trying the steps in a safe, private setting can be a neat puzzle to solve with friends.
