    How does the DNA Wiper work exactly? Because I have people directly next to me and killing me with a hs with no dna left right away. But if I were to do the same thing, I have at least a min left of DNA, and I have the Wiper maxed out. I know distance + HS has a factor with this, but doesn't seem like distance matters anymore, so I'm confused as how there's no dna when they kill me whilst directly next to me.

    I would say if you experience that you get shot in the head while the player stands next to you, leaves no DNA, you should record it and report it as a bug.

    Cause as it is supposed to work, the further away you are + HS + DNA Wiping upgrade level = Less time of DNA left on bodies, close kills leaves a lot of DNA time. And nothing should have changed about it.

    So if you have experienced Differently, I suggest you do the first thing I said o.o

    ^ As a side note maximum DNA for a gunshot at point blank range is 1:30 and from a knife kill 1:45.

    Which I've noticed both these times when point blank knifing and colting, but when I've been knifed/hs and ided instantly in the back by the same guy, no dna left instantly so that's why I thought max DNA upgrade made it to where you couldn't be tracked. But apparently not xd

    Pretty much this. Try to record this happening and file a bug report. There should be DNA on the bodies right after you kill them.
