Thanks!

I just had a war where I would switch weapons and it would switch right back, it was so ridiculous and cost me 2 easily avoidable deaths. I have 4k hours in the game I know how to swap weapons even though it’s still clunky, this was not clunky — it was straight up bugged.

On my server everyones war scores are recorded and bugs like this can literally end up preventing someone from being slotted in wars.

I didn’t have the exact same bug, but in a war I was just in when I tried to swap (mind you without spamming the button because I know exactly how to swap weapons through the clunkiness) it would swap and swap right back.

This bug persisted all war but when I left the war it was gone. What is going on?
