encountered massive aim-down-sights bug

[Mr Smiley]

any way to prevent the following from happening again? I could hipfire normally, but attempting to ADS resulted in the scope being repeatedly brought up and put away, or just not brought up at all. Firing while this was occurring mostly meant that no shots, or sporadic shots, were fired. Nothing I did fixed it.

Anyone know why this happened and have a means to prevent it from happening again in the future?

I had that too, but in Borderlands 3. The fix for me was: I uninstalled and reinstalled the mousedriver. I had that problem after a Windowsupdate...

This will happen to me every once in awhile. He brings up aim fires once then aim goes down. I have to release the right mouse then press it again to clear it. No drivers for my mouse.

This is the situation I also encounter from time to time. It almost seems like the weapon only shoots single bullet instead of 3-bullet burst or full-auto. Releasing ADS button fixes it.

This often happens to me when I stutter-shoot--ADS, move forward, repeatedly press trigger and repeat. This is my old habit from other FPS where it was not advised to shoot while moving. It seems that when you press several buttons in quick succession the game "lags" and starts stuttering. It is a weird bug but it does not happen too often.

Just want to clarify this bug - hopefully get the DEVELOPERS attention

1. Definitely a game bug and not a hardware/driver issue. Doesn't happen in other games. Doesn't happen in the game prior to enemy spawns. There is a small chance that when enemies have spawned the glitch will initiate. I've been going to peaceful areas, aiming - no issue. Finally was able to replicate the glitch in one battle after enemies spawned. Had to exit and restart game to fix issue. I consider this a game breaking glitch.
2. some users in this thread have been telling me releasing ADS fixes this issue. I'm confirming this does NOT work, at least with the issue I have. ADS functionality - and firing rate is seems? - is affected for the duration of the engagement, basically ensuring your death if you are a weapons-focused build.

Just for more information here I posted about this bug a while back as I mainly noticed it only on my Techno, it happens when you are aiming down sights and throw out your turret while still holding the sights button down, idk if yall are playing a techno or something else but the easiest fix ive found is to just not hold down aim when you use any skill that throws something out.

good to know it might be skill-related. I recently started casting skills in ADS for better precision. I'll see if that makes it occur more frequently
