Re: Aim down sight (ADS) Issues after 2.1.1 Patch.

We continue to see some players experience a rare issue where players are unable to Aim Down Sight after exiting a vehicle.

Despite the fixes deployed in Update 2.1.1 We'll continue to investigate this and look for new solutions that we can include in a future update.

    I got the ADS bug last night on Arica Harbor [so, as noted elsewhere, only seen on pre-2042/Portal-ported maps] while playing as Lis and using a TV missile and unable to ADS afterward. I was using the AK with 40mm HE grenades in the primary T-slot. Fortunately, I had a non-underbarrel attachment to select [grip] and then could ADS again. I tried knifing and switching to secondary weapons prior to changing the T-menu attachment and was unsuccessful. When using the SFAR you don't have that choice and are just hosed.

    I had sort of the same issue (again) but this time with different outcomes. All of the times I've had problems it was with atleast the following setup:

    Operator: Liz

    Weapon: SFAR-M GL

    All of the times I spawned on a vehicle, for example a Condor and jumped out. Sometimes my weapon ADS wouldn't work, other times I shot a Liz rocket and after that the launcher doesn't reload and I can't ADS any weapon anymore. Finally I have a captured clip in the YouTube link below. This time I also spawned on a Condor and jumped out, shot Liz rockets and after that all that happens in the YouTube clip. Low quality is because of the ever existing Frostbite/Shadowplay bug where it doesn't recognize 1440p when launching.

    ONLY on the older 64 player maps. And it may be conditional to one weapon only. The S-FAR. The new maps that came with the game work fine under any player count. So, Older 64 player maps, the S-FAR, and after exiting vehicle.

    Also Lis' rockets cause ADS bug on those classic maps for some reason.

    On the new AOW 128 maps the only ADS problem I experience is with GOL Magnum's scopes. They stop working when I drop ammo box for example... I have to switch it to another one, look through it, and change it back. Super annoying.

    This is the same bug that has been in the game since release. It has never been fixed on the portal-mode remastered maps, despite DICE repeatedly stating it has been fixed. It can be recreated 100% of the time with the steps that have been provided dozens of times. This isn't "rare". Its baffling that this issue still persists.

    True. It happens to me everytime. I have to remember not to use SFAR or Lis' rockets. Otherwise suicide and respawn...  Also I have noticed today, that scopes on M16 don't zoom propertly, when you look through them too fast after reloading for example.

    How is this ancient bug still around?!

    This just happens to be ONE of them. More than a year later and it's still present in this game. This is pathetic!

    This was not rare! This was happening 100% of the time for me on 64 player maps with an SFAR as primary coupled with loss of ability to fire a second shot for LIS on T-84. Completely reproducible and not present at all on the 128 player maps as far as I can tell.
