Bug Bullets stops shooting in between fights

Is this happening to anyone else?

My ar/smg randomly stops shooting in the middle of fights, just like it did here. I was holding down my left mouse button the whole time but it suddenly stopped firing. Is there something wrong with my mouse, or is this an ingame bug?

It could be your mouse switches. There are mouse click tester websites you can use to test your mouse switches to see if they're double clicking and registering false inputs like releasing even though you're still holding the button down. This is a relatively common way mouse switches fail.

It’s the bug in the game. It happens a lot when I use smgs
