Summarize your bug A third unintended consequence has been discovered after eliminating the Prox Sensor. When the EMP Grenade is selected on Orbital, it shows Smoke Grenade - Fine - we know that issue. However, in-game, the Grenade remains a Smoke Grenade and is NOT an EMP Grenade as selected. In other words, it is literally impossible to add the EMP Grenade to your Player Loadout, and/or use the EMP Grenade in-game. Due to the EMP Grenade marking enemies similarly to the Prox Sensor, I assume you removed it on purpose to enhance server performance. The EMP Grenade worked as expected until the Prox Sensor was removed from the Game.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Select the EMP Grenade on the Orbital and throw it in any Multiplayer Mode.
What happens when the bug occurs? My EMP Grenades only result in a puff of smoke. The EMP Grenade worked as expected until the Prox Sensor was removed from the Game.
What should be happening instead? The EMP Grenade should interfere with the enemy a the Player should gain of 5 XP for a successful attempt.
The Snipping Tool will not allow me to take a picture on Battlefield 2042, but I assure you - Just select the EMP Grenade on the Orbital. You will see a Smoke Grenade and only the Smoke Grenade will deploy in game when the Player throws it. Please return the EMP Grenade to the Game.
