Summarize your bug Sometimes when I play the heavy class in blast and I activate the supercharged sentry ability the sentry gun it is still in first person. The sentry is held like a normal weapon. After this moment it is impossible to see when the sentry ability is recharged and ready to activate.

    Hey @Julybil

    That seems like a weird glitch 🤭

    Would it be possible for you to record a short video once the issue occurs in your game and post a link to it in this thread? It would be very useful for our specialist team 🙂

    Many thanks!

    @EA_Ataashi I have made a screenshot of the supercharged sentry in first person.

    @EA_Ataashi Apparently the supercharged sentry is sometimes also held wrong in third person. The sentry is held in front of the droid's body instead of on the side of the droid. See my screenshot as evidence.

    This bug also happens when playing with Explosive sentry. My question is what is your primary weapon with attachments?

    Thanks for the additional information @Julybil! I'll attach the screenshots to the report.

    @NavarDerth have you noticed this problem with any other weapons?

    @EA_Ataashi used to get this bug when I played with DC15LE with reduced recoil and improved zoom equipped. Sometimes at spawn I could notice that the main weapon was weirdly positioned - shifted higher. Whenever that was the case, deploying into sentry mode (explosive sentry) did not change camera to 3rd person and I was stuck with first person view (did not really bother me as it allowed me to aim more precisely, but it's still a glitch). I did not encounter this glitch since the last patch as I switched improved zoom for explosive shot (That also took care of the problem persistent since game launch in November - unstable improved zoom crosshair.)

    So I think it's not problem with Sentry, but with camera as the glitch can be recognized as soon as the player spawns with weird gun position.
