Anyone still having these issues (patched but still occurring problems)?

A lot of things have been fixed throughout the various patches but there are a couple things that have been mentioned as fixed in the patch notes but still occur as regular issues to me. Are other people having these issues still? I play on Playstation 5 and my game is fully updated.

Issues:

  • Ammunition for underbarrel grenade launchers cannot be restocked through either ammo boxes or loadout crates. This was reported as fixed in Update #3 but I have never had been able to restock them without dying and respawning, which is a shame because the underbarrel grenades add a lot of versatility to loudouts.
  • Chat log visibility option does not seem to work consistently, and though I have it set to off, I still see the chat occasionally. I'm not sure if it works some matches and then shows it others, I just know that I've checked to make sure I have it set to "off" several times yet I still see the chat pop up from time to time. I don't think console even has a default keybinding (or the option to set a keybinding) to toggle the chat log visibility so it must just be an issue with the setting. This setting was added in Update #4.
  • AK-24 still has three firing modes, even though Update #4.1 reported to have removed the Semi Auto fire mode. Although the three firing modes theoretically provide the gun with greater versatility, it more often results in me being confused and cycling to the wrong firing mode when in a rush. It's much easier to switch them when there are just two firing modes, like with most other guns. I would honestly prefer that the Burst fire mode be removed and the Semi Auto kept, but either way the gun is working like how they reported.
  • Sometimes getting out of a vehicle will prevent me from aiming down sights on my firearm. I can't find where this was mentioned to be fixed but I remember it being stated at some point. At the very least, this is a very uncommon issue now whereas it was a very common occurrence at a while ago, so work has definitely been done on it.

    1. Yes, very annoying
    2. Don’t know what you are referring to, but less chat and more play would help the team
    3. Are you sure it was the AK? The PKP no longer has semi-auto
    4. I used to get this bug all the time but not since the patch

    @DCAT627 Yeah, I'm sure that the update notes mentioned the AK-24, I've triple checked. It mentions removing semi auto fire mode and increasing the fire rate of the burst fire mode. I dont think it could be talking about the PKP because it never had a burst mode in the first place (LMG with burst?)

    I remember that they fixed, that the different underbarrel grenade launchers no longer share the same ammo pool of 3 grenades total.

    But maybe I missunderstood that.

    @kregoraI think it only works if you switch to a non-underbarrel shooting/weapon attachment (such as a grip/bipod/flashlight/laser) and then use a crate to re-stock them. Otherwise, they don't re-supply.

    @kregora What they reported in Update #3 was exactly "Ammunition can now be supplied to 40mm Underbarrel Attachments and their different ammunition types". There was a point where they added seperate ammo pools like you mention but that was an earlier update I believe, and not what I am talking about. What Update #3 purports to fix, and didn't yet fix for me, is that I can't restock my underbarrel ammunition with anything short of respawning.

    @Anobix Wow, that actually works, I've never been able to restock them otherwise. So testing it, as long as one type of underbarrel launcher is selected then none of my underbarrel ammunitions can be restocked; however, switching the underbarrel attachment to something like a bipod or grip allows me to instantly restock all of my underbarrel ammunition even at a small ammo box. Switching to my sidearm has no effect either way. Although this is good to know, that seems like a glitch because: 1. There is no way to restock the underbarrel ammunition of the SFAR-GL as the only underbarrel options it has are grenade launchers, and 2. It restocks ALL of my underbarrel grenades instantly which seems OP considering a small ammo box normally only restocks ONE hand grenade per tick. The SFAR-GL can be laboriously restocked by switching to a different gun and back again with Angels Loadout Crate but there is no way that should be the only way.
