This bug was supposed to be fixed in the latest update but last night I got this bug the same way as you always would when playing. Spawned with SFAR-M GL in a vehicle and then got out and found that I could not ADS at all. It was exactly as it was before.
[Hero edit: updated title]
I exprienced this issue multiple times on portal, but never on all out warfare since 4.0

Still getting the no ADS after the patch, it doesn't happen all the time but around 50/50 so far. I'm using the SFAR with grenade launcher attachments.
- @StormtrooperDan Yup me too unfortunately. Very annoying, also happened after exiting a stationary gun in Battle of the Bulge

Summarize your bug When you spawn or enter a vehicle, and exit them, random bugs appear on you. Worst if u can't move or aim, because you control a mouse cursor on the screen. This won't disappear if u die, u have to leave the server. The no-ADS, no weapon change etc bug came back, even u didn't release a client side patch. The most interesting bug will be shown below on screenshot, where jumping out from a heli after spawn, I have this strange granade by Sundance, which works like a scatter, but I can't change it... https://postimg.cc/RWsq9PJ0

You can't ADS after exiting vehicles AGAIN on 1.0... This is so annoying, I stopped playing 2042 because of that before...
Also TTD (time to death) feels instant. The new "weapon netcode" introduced in 1.0 obviously stacks damage and deaths feel instant. Even when shooting other players I can see them not reacting or even trying to take cover.
How can DICE break stuff on every update, is beyond me.

Hey @LambrettaG,
When you mention the ADS bug, do you mean this issue?There was a major thread about this, which got closed because it was mentioned that it was resolved.
- @EA_Leeuw Yes thats the issue. It was indeed resolved for me too, but now its back with 1.0. It only happened in portal (unless i was lucky in all out warfare) and it was much more common than before. Its a 50-50
chance exiting a vehicle wont let you ads.
Both the issues I mentioned are upvoted on reddit, so I am not the only one:
https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/uygf4l/the_ads_bug_has_somehow_returned_and_additional/
https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/v7ayyl/ttd_time_to_death_extremely_fast_or_instant_after/
Please make the ADS bug a priority. Its the only bug that made me stop playing, because you are basically dead after u exit a vehicle.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Platform PS5
After 1.0 update Can't ads after exiting vehicle with SFAR equiped. It could be any vehicle so far.
This is random as far as I can tell. I cannot ADS any weapon. It only happens on the old BF maps. This bug never happens on the new BF2042 maps. Exiting a vehicle doesn't trigger it like before.

Summarize your bug "Zoom not possible after using vehicle" bug on Portal maps reoccur
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play Portal Valparaiso / Noshar Canals, enter a Quad / LAV on map, drive a few meters, leave vehicle, try to zoom rifle. No zoom possible. On Tank it does not happen joining map already inside the tank, but appears joining a tank which is already on map.
What happens when the bug occurs? You can not zoom to scope or to zoom use M5.
What should be happening instead? zooming as usual - bug occurs only in portal, was fixed in December, now reoccurā
"Zoom not possible after using vehicle" bug on Portal maps reoccur
- EA_Leeuw
Hey,
thank you for quick reply, it is related to that thread and I could nail it down further.
It apperars on *selected* underbarrel grenade launcher on SFAR and AK-24.
OnAK-24 if grenade launcher mounted but grip selected no issue,
only when grenade laucher is selected.On SFAR grenade launcher could not be deselected, therefore issue always present.
See attched video on AK-24:
select grenade -> zoom NOKselect grip -> zoom OK
select grenade -> zoom NOK
Same thing going on here. Series X. It started with Exodus Conquest on the 4 new maps (doesn't happen on the regular maps). Whenever i exit any vehicle cannot ADS. After i exit the vehicle i can glitch through it...i cannot re-enter it. ADS works again if i pickup a gun on the ground. Please fix. Thanks
Guns may unable to aim after dismount from a vehicle in old maps of previous series (BF3) , in and out a vehicle again won't help . I saw this bug in the latest game in Caspian Border and it keep happening through whole round . When this happen , I can't use any scope or sight on primary weapon , secondary weapon and rocket/missile launcher .
Does anybody else has issues with the ADS bug again.
It appears to happen more frequent on Portal, like Infantry Conquest.
I used Lis and had the issue after leaving vehicles, or after shooting her TV missile, as I believe it counts as a vehicle as well, similar to Caspers drone.
Mainweapon was a AK-24, with underbarrel explosive or incendiary grenade launcher.
- @kregora I have had this issue when playing Lis as well. I've used both the Scar and the BSV, when experiencing the bug.
For me it also seems like the bug is happening a lot more in Portal-mode (even though it seems weird).iT HAPPENED TO ME AS WELL.
- @kregora Yes, on Exodus conquest, which is just Portal running with 2042 factions, because it is still happening on Portal.
If you can, switch guns with a downed soldier, and it will fix it. You can switch back.- @A-RAF2019 You can't use the Plus Menu when you have the underbarrel grenade launcher active. When you switch back to "gun mode", the plus menu works again.

Summarize your bug Lis Specialist triggers multiple bugs in BC2 maps (Exodus playlist)
