Magic SVD?!

[Jackson Lamb]

So three times now I've switched to my third weapon slot and have drawn an SVDM-2 that I definitely didn't have equipped or stored in my inventory.

It definitely isn't my imagination, because each time it has happened I was just below the red line for weight, I'd switch weapon and the SVD would be drawn, and then I'd check to find the weapon I actually had equipped in my inventory and my carry weight is above the red line but I hadn't picked anything up.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Edit: IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN!

I was shift+tabbed to write this post, went back in to the game and equipped my third slot and it drew ANOTHER SVDM-2, my carry weight has increased, and my M701 Super is back in my inventory...wtf?!

It would be less annoying if the magic guns replacing our gear mid combat was not always condition red.

There seems to be "Is this a factor, or is it a coincidence?" with people realizing it happened with zombies especially. First time a magic .308 rifle showed up in my inventory was the first time zombies spawned on a hill 30 feet behind me in the early 'no emissions yet' game.

But yeah. when you use your brain and use both weapon slots regularly instead of call of duty "only one gun for everything!!!" it, that ♥♥♥♥ is atrocious.

All four have been yellow for me but on the lower end of yellow.

I think you might be on to something about the spawning thinking about it. The last two times I noticed a stutter before the snork spawned and then before a group of stalkers fighting zombies spawned respectively. Weird.

There's a known bug where a new spawn enemy will randomly put their gun into your hands.

This.
There are at leat 15 threads about it.

Main problem is that devs seem not to be able to deliver any patches.
