that's what I call it: The Bug.

makes you do stuff like this: change your weapon (mostly from primary to pistol, sometimes to grenade); throw away you weapon; fire weapon (sometimes once, sometimes more, sometimes empties 2-3 magazines!); stuck, can't move; shivering; look straight up or down. not all this occurs at once, usually a combination (like: get stuck for a moment, fire once primary weapon and change to secondary then).

happens when and where? multiplayer. I've seen it in the mpdemo, I was really disappointed to see it in the full version. it does not happen in all servers, but... it happened in some servers with the demo, it's happening in most servers i visit with the full vers! it's not always there, it "comes and goes". for example last night I played in a swedish server with 32 ppl, all went well for about 2-3 hours and then... The Bug came... ppl started having problems. stuck, shivering, weapon change, sudden firing (which is really annoying if you shoot your own teammate). i saw this coming&going again today: was a nice play in a server and then it slowly started to turn into hell... first was just a moment of being stuck... might have believed it was a lag... then came weapon change and sudden shooting. and in some time... maybe hour, maybe more/less... it was gone (or was not so much more).

i've been talking to ppl about this... first of all: i'm not the only one to get such abnormal behaviour... (Mange posted a thread here about it last night... was named "couple of mp bugs" or smth like that) it is clearly to see in some maps where all the allies start together (like The Hunt), start running along the road and then everybody is stuck, fires weapons and some look up (or down). the stuckness usually happens for about a second, sometimes more. ppl have it, but they don't know what it is...

the ones who think they know usually say it is whether a a) lag or b) cheat(er).

a) i don't believe it.
b) might be, but connected to a bug, i believe.

well... hard to believe it is a lag... what lag makes you throw away you weapon?

cheat? well, i could imagine someone using a cheat and through bugs or flaws in the game's code cause lots of trouble for other players... an argument for this is also the "coming&going" of The Bug... but in that case... wouldn't it still be a bug? i hardly believe EA/2015 intentionally left such a feature in the game. on the other hand... i'm not too sure it's a cheat-bug. in my long time of playing mohaa (since the demo came out) i've rarely seen someone cheat (the times where i've been really sure about the person cheating). to be honest: only once! (the other time was when the host of the server was trying out a custom skin and therefore was invisible for others... he was really sorry and corrected that quickly).


all that said, i'd conclude that there is a major bug in the game... in the multiplayer part of the game. The Bug.


can anybody maybe say anything about this? does anybody know more? a way to fix this?


i'd like to report this all to the game's developer... but i'm too lazy to search for a report-bugs-e-mail-address...
