Summarize your bug When selecting the Staghound as vehicle as the game begins (assuming I get reach the vehicle spawn before anyone else) I deploy in a staghound as expected. However, if I die and get my hands on vehicles again, the Staghound (specced with the spotting scope, crates, 37mm and rockets) simply refuses to deploy about 80% of the time. Vehicle is properly selected, indicating that I do have access to spawn on any vehicle, but the deployment does not work, even if trying repeatedly for many minutes. To be clear, if I deselect the vehicle spawn point the ⚽ next to the icon re-appears as expected. . A similar bug happens with any vehicle, but selecting a regular spawn then immediately selecting vehicle spawn again solves it quickly, and e.g. Stuka will then deploy as expected. However, The Staghound simply won't deploy at all. This is definitely not related to other players having deployed a vehicle before me, as long as I keep the vehicle spawn selected no one else does deploy there. I have not found any workaround despite trying a lot of things. What works is changing to another vehicle type, or spawning as infantry and trying again later. I've tried things like clearing Origin cache, updating GPU driver and "repairing" the game. I am pretty certain the bug did not exist until the latest patch, or some other recent patch as I am pretty sure I had no issue leveling up the staghound by spamming the vehicle spawn and immediately deploying as expected. I am also pretty sure, although not entirely sure that it only affects Staghound (for me). This is not related to user error, I have clocked 344 hours in BFV and way more in BF1, BF4 and BF2. As Staghound is my favorite vehicle this is extremely annoying.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Don't know if you can recreate it. Try deploying the stag on any map as the round starts (e.g. twisted steel), dying then trying to deploy on the stag again by spamming the deploy button. If this works every time (assuming no one else gets the vehicle first), the bug is not present. For some reason it appears to work more often if I wait longer after the previous vehicle was destroyed (waiting longer) although I am not certain
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing. I press deploy and nothing happens.
What should be happening instead? Nothing happens, instead of being deployed inside a staghund.
Thank you!
