Swapping Weapons Bug?

killabytes · 10-08-2008, 05:25 AM

Hey,

Besides my sound bug that happens every now and again I noticed something else that is slightly annoying.

When play any level, randomly when I shoot one shot from a weapon the game will then switch back to another weapon as if it ran out of ammo. Keep in mind that I have plenty of ammo left!

I thought maybe I was hitting the change weapon button on the default controls, so I changed it....same thing. I also tried 3 other controllers. Still.

Huh?

I think it's awkward how a lot of people have experienced sound glitches and control bugs, but i have yet to encounter any glitches other than that command prompt glitch thing, did you try deleting it and redownloading it? that may fix the problem if not, then maybe you are hitting buttons accidentally oO

I have actually had the same issue.

Right.

Anyway as I said I changed the button and it still happened.

And someone else is having the same issue, so clearly something is afoot.

60-80% of the time my RPG switches to the Shrinker on the first shot. Not sure if it does it in DM or not, since I dont think Ive ever possessed both

Havent noticed it with other weapons [yet].

I havent had any problems but then again, it may of happened and I just might not of noticed it.

Ive had this problem a few times with the RPG, cant remember what it switched to though, I just switch back and its fine

Phayzon · 10-09-2008, 09:35 AM

Actually now that I think about it Ive had some Pipebomb switches too. Pretty much the RPG, Pipebomb and Shrinker all seem to interchange when I want to use one

Always goes from the RPG to the shrinker for me.

Have never seen this in any testing that I recall. No idea on this.

Does it happen if you don't change any keys, and use 100% default?

MegaMustaine · 10-09-2008, 08:28 PM

Yeah, I'm using the default controller layout.

Yeah Joe thats when I first noticed it. When I bought the game, first day of course, I started playing and I noticed it right away with the defaults.
