I just played a match on Firebase White (Geth, Gold) where a 'retrieve' mission took place. Somehow, the player who fetched the item went down, close to or in the LZ, but without triggering the item as placed in the zone and the objective accomplished. The player was revived, picks up the item, drops it, I pick up the item, nothing happens. After dropping the item again (under heavy fire) we revived eachother a few times before I decided to try something else. I went -outside- the LZ with the item, then back in. Fortunately, that worked! The event was properly triggered and the objective was achieved, just as time was running out.
Interestingly, I think it was this player who then proceeded not to die. I heard his character complain about his shields going down, but he went toe-to-toe with two Geth Primes and several other Geth platforms, for three rounds or so! I am quite certain he was in the LZ, but he still registered as -away/dead- as his name was in red. This might be due to dying with the item somehow during that quest.
Hopefully this may be useful to others. Anyone else seen something similar happen?
BTW I was host and didn't modify a single file.
