Viper Stuck On Reload

[simeo77]

I'm trying out the Viper but occasionally the reload hangs.

 

The reload icon will just keep spinning and spinning and I'm unable to reload for the rest of the mission. Sometimes I'm able to interrupt this by using my melee or ability and it will reload and fire for a few more reloads until it hangs again.

 

Just thought I'd report the bug. This has happened during quite a few missions the past couple days.

 

Thank you.

 

Edit: This is a known bug.

 

From the wiki: Some have experienced bugs with this weapon's reloading. Try and stop pressing the sprint button while you reload. For some reason if you reload and sprint at the same time you might have some problems with fast reloading weapons. NOTE: This reloading glitch is also caused by game lag and low framerates, and can become so troublesome you can stand in place and it will constantly do the reload animation indefinitely or until lag improves. It is not recommended to use this weapon if you have problems with lag or framerate issues as this may become near usless in combat.
