Can’t switch weapons

[Major Stiffy]

Just started playing and after I carry dead man and drop him I can’t switch weapons either by radial menu or hot key. I have to carry someone again then it works. Any way around this?

Hey there. Sorry to hear you're having difficulties. The team is in the process of investigating this currently. Thank you for your patience.

Any ETA?

What works for me is throwing the bodies instead of dropping them.

I just posted the same issue as u not realising that there was a post about this issue. So yes I had this issue moments ago and it happened just after searching a corpse.

I had the same problem once and, as you say it cured itself by lifting another body. Also sometimes when as sniper jagar I spawn and can't move.

Yes, this Jager movement thing happens to me a LOT, especially in the first mission map, though it has happened very rarely in the mission 3 map. I get a kind of shimmer but no movement possible. I have to abandon the match and choose another. Happens about once every 30 or so matches for me. It seemed to be fixed the last update, where there is now a considerable delay once spawning in as a Jager, but no, and though apparently less often now, it is still an issue. Just one of those things. I've never had the weapons switch bug.

It still has a few bugs. Quite a lot, in invasion my binoculars and sniper scope doesn't zoom in and out, it's stuck at same level. Also the game crashes out a lot before or just after the main menu comes up. Sometimes 2 or 3 times before I can get a game. Also I use wireless earphones and if I don't have then turned on when starting the game I have to restart it as it just doesn't pick them up. They are still selected in launcher, but there is nothing in the settings to fix it. If I have been playing game and I stop and turn them off, when I continue later to play, again no sound and have to restart. Very annoying.

I've suddenly started getting an issue where you can't swap weapons or select Binoculars. just started today. I have to save and exit and reload. I was on Liberation (the best map). I think all other option work (i.e. movement etc)

In some custom and authentic levels the scope and binos are locked.

Sorry don't know what you mean as custom or authentic levels, i'm just joining someones game as sniper jager.

So today the game in axis invasion, is unplayable for a good few hours as, as soon as it finds a player to connect with, and it starts loading, I get "the connection to the game has been terminated (12049)," and that's with many different players.
