Summarize your bug Every time (before and after update) I pilot a vehicle in hazard zone and exit the vehicle, I cannot aim down sights or scan. Ammo in clip also stays at 00 though I can hip fire. If I die and redeploy it works again. Until then Left Trigger does nothing.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Pilot a vehicle in hazard zone and exit. Try to aim
What happens when the bug occurs? When I exit after piloting a vehicle I cannot aim down sights. Only hip fire. As if left trigger is deactivated
What should be happening instead? I should be able to aim down sights.
If I am not piloting said vehicle I can aim down sights after I exit. Once I pilot the vehicle I cannot until I die and redeploy
Exact same problem
Okay updated. It also causes the player to not be linked with his true position in the server. The player thinks theyre next to a vehicle or zipline, but theyre actually 30m away
Yes I've had that happen too where it shows my squad in the vehicle near me staying still and they are long gone
I've tried refreshing my PROFSAVE_profile by closing the game, deleting the file and relaunching the game. No DICE (hah).
Had this yesterday, first time and only for a few minutes, quite tense as we were just about to extract lol
Wasn't driving, just passenger in car.
Bug is not limited to Hazard Zone - I'm confirming it occurs in All Out War too (Conquest, Breakthrough (Single Player, Coop, Multiplayer)).
Also, the Weapon Wheel (T key) won't show any attachments; I only see the numbers 1,2,3,4 at the center of the wheel (or cross).
Lastly, this no ADS upon exit of vehicle only started happening for me post update #3 (I don't play Hazard Zone).
Same problem since update number 3. Occurs after driving/piloting or being a passenger in all vehicles in the game. Also happens in any game mode.
Same here both HZ and AOW. Problem showed up after updated. PS5

Yes to all of the above. It is every game mode. Any vehicle. The only time it does not happen is if I am passenger in a vehicle that I can still have my weapon out and shoot from. Thank you all for replying. Let's keep it going and bring this to EAs attention. It makes so many aspects of the game unplayable. If I get in a vehicle on Hazard Zone (my fav mode) I just know my aiming is done for the rest of the round unless I die. I'm pretty much useless at that point if the vehicle is lost or abandoned and with no voice chat yet, no way to communicate it
Ok, I fixed it by reinstalling the game (pc). Just tested and confirmed.
What about console players? Does a reinstall fix?
It’s worth a shot. I’m guessing the patch install was faulty so yes I think it’ll fix it on console.
Try it and let us know.
Same here Iceman. I cant turn around Left or Right also cant aim down or up its because of the update it has interfered with the settings
Aiming left/right/up/dn is a separate issue. On pc you can modify your profile or delete and refresh on reload to create a new profile.
Iceman I,am hoping a another update
I'm having the same problem on ps5 AOW Conquest. Before update 3 it was only happening if I jumped into other players vehicles. After update 3 it's every vehicle.
This problem also exists on the PS5 after the latest patch and is not limited to Hazard Zone. It also occurs in Breakthrough mode.
Spawning into a vehicle as the pilot causes ADS to be disabled after you exit the vehicle, and the ammo counter graphic is stuck at 00.
I can definitely confirm this issue for PS5 on Breakthrough. However folks, while I cannot remember what I’ve done now when it has occurred (about twice so far) please don’t reinstall or anything crazy like that.
I cannot believe I don’t remember exactly how I worked around this issue but I do remember that I’d spend some time swapping all of my attachments and I think I even went prone. I was trying things like that twice and voila, I was able to ADS again. This actually happened just last night (so annoying I cannot recall literally *the* action that caused it to stop and allowed me to ADS). Even after using Cas’ drone this can occur as well.
So again, it happened last night in Manifest, 2nd time I can remember this ever happening to me on PS5, Breakthrough, I then used + system to swap attachments for about 20-30 secs and I truly believe I remember going prone at some point and not too long after that I was able to ADS. I cannot remember if I did anything else after going prone. I did sort of keep trying to ADS after I’d swap attachments as well and I’d swap to my secondary or sidearm, swap it’s attachments as well.
The next time this happens I’m going to *slow down* and try every step slowly and then post results here. You definitely do not have to reinstall or anything, at least for PS5. Whatever I did to work around it, I’m confident it will probably work for PC as well.
