Has any one else experienced this? This is happening on a daily basis now which I believe is new to 235. It HAS to be related to key presses because I usually am in some combination of reloading/switching to pistol when the LMG won't fire even with a clip with bullets in it.

Edit: Actually it may be due to the new key binds I use. I use Q and E for weapons slot 1 and 2. I can switch between them much quicker. Ill have to play around with it to see if that is the cause...

    It's been happening since Build 232 for me. More often in Build 235 though. It always happens to me when I'm unloading an LMG clip, switch to my pistol and fire that off, then back to my LMG to let off the rest of the clip and it just jams. The only way to unjam it is to switch back between the pistol and the LMG again. It's quite awful.

    I have this problem, too.

    I think it happens when you build something and you "switch" weapons during that.

    It definitely has sth to do with switching weapons.

    Sometimes it's happens to me when I logout from command station in order to kill solo skulk... And get killed by skulk because you simply can't shoot.

    Never experienced this myself...you mean the gun just stops firing mid clip somehow? Closest thing I've had is infinite reload syndrome, usually caused by onos -.-

    Basically your character stops shooting even if you hold down left click. I didn't know you can just switch weapons to fix it so I always dropped my ar and picked it back up to fix the issue

    Generally no. My order of events is usually something like

    1)fire 1/2 clip
    2) start to reload
    3)switch to my pistol before its done
    4)quickly switch back to finish the 1/2 clip off and I cannot shoot.


    Sometimes It happens with and without a reload mixed in.

    Ammo counter will say 00 but all the bars below will be completely full. armory visit fixes the issue.

    The first time i experienced this bug was in the current build 235.

    As far as i remember i used up half the magazine and tried to reload. Nothing happened and i couldn't shoot anymore.
    It happened several times until now ... and it seems to happen casually and most of the time if i try to reload.

    Maybe i press left mouse button and R for reload at the same time... i dunno
