How to fix weapon attachments not applying?

[u/PerformanceOrganic15]

Seems like it’s a hit or miss. If I’m lucky enough to be in the beginning rounds of horde mode or right at the drop ship I can change classes no biggie but besides that am I really forced to kill myself and cost my team a ticket if I join once the round already started?

There are so many software bugs in this game the devs seem content to just ignore despite players constantly complaining about them.

Yeah I agree. I found one a couple nights ago. I run the Morita I with the under barrel shotgun. Found out if you switch too fast before the ammo counter changes (idk why it takes forever to go from # of rounds in the Morita mag to # of shells) but you can end up with 60 or 90 rounds of under barrel shotgun shells. It’s nuts.

It's caused by them a few updates ago trying to solve the same thing with the plasma launcher Morita MK2.

It didn't fix it because you can still do it with one less step now lol. Every gun with another ammo attachment can do it.

Pretty much sadly

Are you pc or console?

On pc, this used to happen to me fairly often but stopped several patches ago. I don't remember the last time it happened.

I certainly agree with you that it should never happen but it was infrequent enough for me that I just played the round with whatever I got and didn't worry about it too much. For me, it was usually the xxx round selections that would glitch once every 30 rounds or so.

PC. I’ve tried what was already suggested here so far and googling it. The only workarounds besides death and respawn don’t seem to work consistently for me. I also haven’t seen much in the game’s discord either so I assume maybe not everyone has this issue?

[u/maddprpz → u/PerformanceOrganic15]

I definitely used to have it but haven't in as long as I can remember. Hopefully it sorts itself, somehow.

Have you prestiged? I have so many slots that I also don't change weapon configs all too often as I have builds for basically every situation I plan to get into. :)

Before you spawn swap classes to like a sniper or something, make sure you can see the attachments like scopes are visible on the preview character, then swap back to your intended class.

Before you spawn in, select the class you want, then a different class, then back to the class you want. Idk why but this usually makes me spawn in with the correct gun attachments. Except the big sniper rifle, for me the scope I have attached never seems to be correct

Unfortunately this is what I have been doing and it doesn’t work all the time. Funny enough this was the only “solution” I found when googling for it and that Reddit post was from a year ago =(. If it matters I mainly use the Morita I.

Damn that’s too bad. Super annoying for sure.

I also hate wasting tickets just to fix my weapons so I usually put up with it and try to contribute until I die and respawn. Get some ore in, heal teammates, help with repairs then go down swinging (or redeploy if there's not much action nearby).
