    Hi!

    I have also experienced this issue and it also appears to occur after playing any custom arcade games too.

    However, I have noticed that when you use the locked weapon in multiplayer, it behaves like the default weapon used by that class, so it seems to just be a cosmetic difference. I don't know if this is the same as when you had the issue but if so then it seems that the bug luckily isn't game changing. Hopefully it will be fixed soon though!

    While I'm not exactly sure how I did it, I once was able to access a weapon for multiplayer that I hadn't unlocked as well.

    Hey!

    I noticed that as a specialist, the weapon turned into the default sniper rifle. But as an officer and heavy, I got to use the TL-50 and the last blaster pistol for the officer (Can't remember the name) in their intended form.
    Don't know why it's so erratic but maybe that's just part of the bug.

    I discovered the bug as a specialist so I just assumed it was the same for the other classes but that is very strange that it is only for those classes.

    It might be because you have them equipped in arcade. If you go into an arcade game and unequip all of your weapon mods and then try again in multiplayer then it should work.

    Hi everyone!

    We've already received a report about this issue, but I'm going to bump the case again.

    Thanks for pointing this out!
