I can record it in other modes but this was exodus conquest. it happens in every mode This is happening for me as well. Doesn't matter the game mode, map, loadout, etc. Sundance has not had anti-armor grenades for me since January.

Hey folks,
We're gathering info on this bug. Can you let us know the following info?- Were you playing All-Out Warfare, or Portal?
- If you were playing Portal, was this a custom experience? Just so we can check that the grenades weren't turned off via Restrictions
- Any further info you could share about how you tried using the grenades? Was it thrown before you experienced the bug? Was the anti-armor grenade available at any point during the match?
Thank you!
- Were you playing All-Out Warfare, or Portal?
- @Straatford87 My issue started happening in January so I couldn't say what matches I played before but I did play some heavily modified portal modes that had something like gun game modified. I suspected that rules from portal had somehow carried over to the rest of the game.
I can't use Sundance anti armor in any game mode or map. All our warfare, portal, conquest, breakthrough all are affected.
The problem is that there is no option for anti armor. Before the EMP grenade was removed for everyone I only had two options to cycle through when playing Sundance. Only scatter and EMP.
Now that the EMP has been removed from her kit I only have the scatter grenade. Pressing the 3 key again for sundance's grenade gadget doesn't switch grenade types. It just stays on scatter grenade. The UI also only shows scatter grenade. There is no two dots showing that there are options to switch to a different grenade type.
You can throw and Regen scatter grenades, but anti armor grenades never even show up as an option and cannot be selected.
I was able to use the anti armor grenades prior to January when I noticed they were missing and made this topic. Since then I have never been able to use them at any point across any match type. I have reinstalled the game several times. - @Straatford87 Also I wanted to mention that this bug has serious implications for the integrity of gameplay in all out warfare. If specialist loadout rules can be permanently applied and carry over to all out warfare, whats to say other rules can't be permanently applied as well?
How would DICE even know if some player had higher bullet damage, speed, bullet velocity, health, or other variables permanently applied after playing a custom portal server?
The player may not even know.
It's important that everyone playing all out warfare has the same experience and balance related variables applied to their gameplay. @Straatford87 For me, my experience is pretty much identical to @SpudBug. Since January/February I have only had 1 grenade for Sundance - the scatter grenade. Prior to that, I for sure had the option for the other grenade(s). There is no second or third dot underneath the icon to indicate that there is even another grenade to choose from.
I've only really play All-Out-Warfare and haven't played Portal more frequently since maybe last December. I've probably hopped in a Portal game or 2 in the past 8 months, but for the most part, I play AOW.
To be clear, this is not a matter of the grenade options disappearing after doing something or something happening - the anti-armor grenade type just has not existed in my game for me since earlier this year (January or February, I really can't be sure the exact date).
Not sure this applies to this thread, BUT regarding Sundance's grenades. One issue that I have had for a while now is while switching grenade
types between Scatter and Anti-Armor it seems to be a toss up which grenade type I get. I must've thrown 100+ anti armor grenades at inf in the
belief that it's Scatter, the visual indicators says it's Scatter, but the grenade being thrown is an anti-armor and vice versa. It's only after respawn it
updates the UI indicating which grenade type is the currently selected.
This happens in AOW, both Breakthrough, Conquest and Exodus Conquest.
As a soldier and behind cover, I got killed by an anti armor grenade on Breakthrough, exposure, using Sundance.
There was a tank behind me, but it was far. I don't think the grabbed tracked it. The grenade just fell on me and I got killed, like a grenade. Maybe it was HE and the game got it wrong. Go figure.
- @A-RAF2019 If you have a different bug/issue that is not related to not being able to use or throw anti armor grenades when playing Sundance please start a new topic.
The same thing for me. I've had the game for a couple of months and was able to use the anti armor grenades for maybe two games when I very first got the game. With no explanation they disappeared off of HUD. Every game mode every time
@Drunkness101the issue is still happening in season 2 now 9 months later. I guess I'll never have the same loadout as other players lol.
I joined a server that banned anti-armor grenade and now all I can use is the scatter no matter what game mode. Ive redownloaded the game and have found other people having the same issue with no solution.
- @TheGageLink I'm having the same problem. A friend and I had the Anti-Armor grenade and both lost it permanently after joining a Portal TDM server.
It happened to me as well... I bought game ~2 weeks ago and I could use anti-armor on Sundance, no issues. Few days ago it just disappeared from the loadout and I don't know why or how to bring it back...Really annoying
