This makes it rather difficult, but I had a couple games where one person is invisible. I can see their bombs and them taking items but not actually them. Makes it rather difficult not to die a lot

I was about to make a thread
I was about to make a thread for this but I see it's there already.
Here is a screenshot and some more description of the problem:

The invisible players (two in my case (that made for a darned hard game!)) actually still had a visible sprite but it stayed unmoving in the center (see guy with... Skolver(?) gear in screenie, and the second guy in a scary skelly suit in on the same spot so we barely see him. Notice the lack of a light circle around the sprites). When said players got a bonus, the accompanying text ("speed up", "blast up!"etc) would still appear over the lagged sprites. Otherwise, bombs spawning from midair and vanishing bonus tiles were the only indicator the two were still there.

I have also experienced
I have also experienced people going invisible during a match. Some additional information, they usually start out with their character in an inaccessible place without a color ring around them.

Just like Celebren...
What Celebren is seeing is exactly what I am experiencing as well. Players are invisible and are able to plant bombs, but somehow their avatar shows up in the center.

Seen this happen several
Seen this happen several times as well. Makes for a very hard, not to mention downright unfair match when somebody is effectively in stealth mode. If you know their color for the game you can see where they are on the mini map... but if you are watching that during the game you're going to be a corpse.
Ironically enough every game I've had this happen in the person that becomes a ghost (and therefore has an inherent advantage over everybody else, even if they don't know it) still hasn't won.

Seems like Skolver gear does
Seems like Skolver gear does this a lot - most invisible players I've seen had the Skolver player standing in the center.

I don't know if the model of
I don't know if the model of the sprite may influence the issue, but all in all there is a huge amount of people wearing gear of the Wolver/Dusker/Skolver/Vog line in general... so maybe that's just why there are more of them in the lagged population too... IDK
this is a big issue right now I agree, sometimes all players will be visible and suddenly one will desynch and you won't see them anymore except on the radar. hope this gets addressed in a patch soon cause blast network is quite cool but this ruins it if one person goes invis
