Summarize your bug Prior to entering a match, I can select a Specialist and the Specialist will be visible on screen with the last loadout used. If I go to the loadout screen and select a different loadout (highlight it), it does not show up on screen (with Specialist) and is not the default loadout when I first join a match. The only way to get a loadout to work is to change any item in that loadout and that loadout will be the one selected as the default in game.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Highlight a different loadout, then join a game. The last loadout used or modified will be the default loadout, not the one selected.
What happens when the bug occurs? Highlighting or selecting a loadout does nothing.
What should be happening instead? The selected loadout should be the default loadout when you first join a match.

Basically I cannot select a loadout to be the one used when I join a game. Since the game loves to auto spawn you and not allow you to spawn on your own, you get stuck with the "default" loadout which is either the last one used or the last one modified. 


If you go to loadouts, highlight a new loadout, then join a match, the original loadout is the default one in game, not the selected one. 

Does anyone else experience this or can you select a loadout like you select a Specialist?

  • Can someone verify that this occurs with them as well. Basically, you can select a Specialist in the game main menu, and when you launch a match, that Specialist is who you spawn as. For loadout, if you go and highlight one, it won't change in the main menu screen with Specialist visible and won't be the one you spawn with once in a match. 


    The only way I can get a loadout to switch is by changing an item in the loadout then exiting the menu. I can't just select a loadout.
