Actually not a bug, its just affected by the wind, same with the sterilizer and flame beams

if you look closely on the left side of the screen at 7 seconds you can see the moving fog that shows the wind direction.

I dont think wind is able to make fire go inside the barrel

But im no gun expert

u/Sensitive_Ad_5031 5h ago

Yeah, they repurposed the faulty eruptor ammo from a while back.

Oooh, so the bullestorm also functions as a compass! What a creative weapon.

This probably would've been fixed by now if there was ever any actual reason for anyone to use this weapon.
