Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try shooting at targets and at walls in gun range and then try it in fights, i havent tried to see if it happens in gun range so im not sure if its only in actual matches or not.

Gun stops shooting then shoots again mid fights.

    Gotcha, thanks!

    Does switching datacenters make any difference at all? Also, were you seeing any of the in-game performance icons popping up when it's happening? 

  • Hey @EA_Kent, I just started noticing this happening to me about a week ago. It did happen earlier season 13 but now all of a sudden it’s happening very frequently. Does not seem to have any triggers. Just happens at random and it’s insanely infuriating. I’d imagine it may even persist but hoping it won’t with the launch of season 14. I’m on PC through origin. Not sure if it’s a server bug but it doesn’t happen at all in the firing range. I have my drivers all up to date and my mouse is wired so I shouldn’t be having these issues. Doesn’t happen with any other game through origin. I just want to be able to play apex without having to worry about this randomly happening to me and I’m sure other players are in the same boat.
