@DYSPROssium Hi, it seems to happen with all weapons. I had the issue as well with the NT-242 of the specialist class (zoom and cooling not working anymore until I un-selected and selected again the mods).2 days ago, here is what I noticed:- At the beginning of a round, I was playing with the Specialist class, and noticed that my mods weren't working anymore- I switched to the officer class, and mods weren't working as well.If more details are needed, I can be more attentive next time I see the issue, and report back. If you have any specific things that you want us to check, tell us and I'll look at it.

I have only experienced this for these both weapons (A280CFE and SE-44C). However I dont play all weapons on frequent basis, so i just can say for what weapons I do NOT have had such issues: a280, CR2, EL16-HFE, FBWMK (dont play it often though!), TL 50, DC15LE, NT242, Blurrg (btw please,please buff it a little, its totally dead since the 25% nerf and I havent been killed by one in months!, also that means I havent played it often). Also I havent experienced the bug since some time. May be because I reinstalled the game ? And because I was in CS so much I didnt play blast/strike so much latley.

@AOD_Stratocactus Just a note about the NT-242, on my side the cooling mode stops working as well.Mods like this are more difficult to notice when missing but you can still check: Without the mod, I think you can only fire 3 times in a row, with it you can fire 4 times before overheating

So, I had the bug 2 days ago in strike game mode:We finished a game on Starkiller Base (where everything was working fine), then we moved to Endor.I tested several weapons, and none of the attachments were working. Details in Italic below.I choose Specialist, my weapon was the NT-242Double zoom and cooling attachments not workingChanged weapons to A280-CFEBurst attachment not working (not sure about the cooling)Changed class to Officer and SE-44CRapidfire attachment not working (not sure about the cooling)Changed the weapon to the Blurrg4 rounds burst and explosive attachment not workingFor testing purpose, I didn't unselect/select the attachments until the end of the round.We lost 1st round, and attachments were still not working for Round 2.We lost round 2, and then we were back in Endor but on the opposite side.From here, all attachments were working back again, with no action on my side.So I guess the issue appears/disappears only at the beginning of a new game (and not a new round).Also, my friend had the issue at the same time as me, but I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or not.

I have the same issue. It happens randomly when joining a game (GA/CS/Blast/Strike/extraction).For me it happened with :Specialist :A280-CFE burst mod and dual zoomNT242 dual zoomOfficer :SE-44C burst modIt probably happened with other weapons and other classes but those are the one I'm sure. Same, I'd say 1 out 20 games. Not a big deal but annoying.

We have the issue as well with my friends playing in strike.
Although from our point of view the issue occurs more often than you say.
It's very annoying indeed.

Hello @-DW-GarthRevan and @Nagrom66 and thanks for reporting this!

Do you by any chance know if this only happens to the weapons you named or is also happening to others? Seems like a pretty annoying issue to me.

I have the same issue. It happens randomly when joining a game (GA/CS/Blast/Strike/extraction).
For me it happened with :
Specialist :
A280-CFE burst mod and dual zoom
NT242 dual zoom
Officer :
SE-44C burst mod
It probably happened with other weapons and other classes but those are the one I'm sure. Same, I'd say 1 out 20 games. Not a big deal but annoying.

@Nagrom66 @-DW-GarthRevan @AOD_Stratocactus
Any of you could have any idea of a possible trigger? Anything that might help this BUG happens? GarthRevan said it doesn't happen mid round. Does it mean it only happened in the beginning of a round? Respawning in the middle of a match won't cause this BUG?
Also, how persistent it is? According to GarthRevan's ingame fixing method, it seems it does persist for at least a round, so respawning doesn't autofixes it. Can it persist through maps? Modes? Game Reset?
Those would be key to narrow it down. Rare BUGs are the most important to narrow down, especially such a BUG which is very impactful to gameplay.

@RogueZeroRendar No idea how it's triggered. It happens so randomly that I don't think about it after.
I'm sure it happens at the beginning of a match (GA/Blast/CS/...), and if I die and respawn, the bug is still there.
Once I unequip and re-equip the mods (when I die and respawn) there is no more problems even if I play 10 games after.
When doing what I mentionned above, I'm not sure if it stops the bug only for the class I was playing (let's say specialist), or for every class that had the issue (officer).
I'll try to monitor that if it happens again.

@RogueZeroRendar For me it only happend at the beginning of the round. Never had it mid round. It persists until you respawn and then deselect the attachment and reselect it. If you only respawn without the procedure it stays deselected, though it is selected.

So the attachment is falsely marked as equipped, though it is not. It seems like the setting is only read visually but not really applied to the weapon.

I can confirm that the bug still is in GA as well. Had it today on Tatooine.
