Weapon-switch Bug

Hello!

Edited because I did not use “the template.”

What is your character name in New World: Reayna

What server/world did you experience your issue on: Dry Tree (on Fae now and I can easily replicate it there).

Describe the issue you are experiencing: There is a weapon-switch bug in New World that has plagued me for quite a while now. Depending on the weapon you switch to, you are unable to do anything: you cannot swap weapons, dodge, jump, use abilities or potions, prone, crouch, you name it. The only ways that I know of to regain control of your character is to get knocked down, stunned, staggered, or die. It is quite debilitating!

(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: It makes me unable to play the game, really.

(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: I can. I need to find something/someone to stagger, stun, or knock me down. Needless to say, in PvP this is crippling!

(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: Link: WeaponSwitchBug - YouTube

What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: To trigger the bug, you have to do the following: dodge, guzzle a potion, press the key to swap weapons, input an ability before the weapon has properly swapped. Boom! Bugged.

When did this happen? it happens all the time.

Hopefully, this helps! Apologies if this has already been reported (I have scoured this part of the forums and was unable to find a thread on the same bug).

Happens all the time to me in arena. Very frustrating. PLEASE FIX.

I am normally not very heavy-handed, but I will continue to shamelessly bump this thread back to the very top of the “Bugs Reports” page until someone tells me they are aware of this issue (or even better, tell me that they are working on fixing the bug).

I am kind fed up of getting this bug in OPRs and dying as a result :stuck_out_tongue:

Sorry!

Yea bug is in game for at least 2 or 3 patches now. Supper annoying. I think it happens when you try to swap weapon and got hit by enemy while doing this.

No. I can trigger it whenever I want to. It has to do with this: To trigger the bug, you have to do the following: dodge, guzzle a potion, press the key to swap weapons, input an ability before the weapon has properly swapped. Boom! Bugged.

Up. If possible, some confirmation that this bug is being looked would be nice. It is affecting players quite a bit in OPRs and Arenas.

Thanks :slight_smile:
