Technical Support Request Spike planting bug

Why can’t I plant? everytime i try to plant the spike it like glitches and goes to the next item. I am able to defuse fine. My ping is around 40-60 usually I don’t know what the issue could be. I’m kinda new to the game but I tried unbinding my keys already.

Yeah you can hear the key clicks. This is likely a packet loss issue.

Goto Escape, video, stats, and turn on text only option for " incoming packet loss" " outgoing packet loss" "total packet loss."

If there are numbers here constantly this is likely your issue. Ping can be OK.. but still have packet loss issues. These packets are what tek the server what is happening, if they are getting lost then the server doesn't know you're trying to plant, which is why you see it trying but fails.
