I believe I found a bug where your weapon gets duplicated, I can't reliably reproduce it though.

When running around and shooting, I decide to pick up a weapon on the floor... shortly afterwards (1 sec or so) I get killed. Suddenly, my weapon (the one I was shooting with - not the one on the floor) lies there in duplicates. Happend to me three times now. Very useful when running around with any superweapon... suddenly your whole team is nicely equipped.

Hm, I'm yet to experience this. Sounds like a lag issue. Has anyone actually picked up the "duplicated" weapons? Odd that it would just come out now.

Actually, I have never met anyone picking up the duplicated weapon (I was playing as merc all the time, so no "team"). But it clearly stayed there. I will investigate more and try to pick up the duplicate when it occurs again.

I should also note that sometimes I have fake weapons or my weapons turn invisible. Very annoying graphical glitch especially for Energize users.

That is definitely a bug, but it's not actually a duplicate weapon on the server. You can't equip your entire team like this as the 'duplicate' weapon doesn't actually exist. It's a netcode issue and your client merely thinks there are 2 weapons there.




How do you mean you 'have fake weapons'? Like in your HUD? Is this a new bug?

No, when dropped on the floor. Its an old bug from a long, long time ago.

* Dropped a gun on the floor. Pick it up, and its in your inventory, but the dropped gun graphic still appears on the ground and this duplicate can't be picked up (Fake Gun).
* Died on wide open ground. The gun doesn't appear to be on the floor, but walking over that spot and pressing E will reveal that the weapon is there all along (Invisible Gun).
* This last one is probably intentional: if you just joined a game, any weapons lying around before you joined cannot be picked up (Fake Gun 2).
