Left Mouse click not registering sometimes to fire?

[BadMedium]

I've done some cursory research and it seems this is a bug that was known to the players and devs in the past? I just bought the game and am experiencing this. Sometimes, quite often in fact, when pressing Mouse1 to fire, nothing happens, and I need to press it a second time to fire the gun. I would say this happens maybe 25% of the time I go to fire any weapon.

Would love some input on this. It doesn't happen in any other game or program, just in case you were wondering.

Yes. Its known bug mainly with bolt rifles. Devs knows about it, but fail to simulate it to fix this. So if u find a way to simulate the bug, let us know.

OK ,i did some research. It happens only if you aim at enemy! ... i think thats huge heads up.

Thanks, I've asked in game now a couple of times, and one guy says he gets it, and it affects nades too. Says he'll go to throw a nade and nothing will happen.

Has anyone found or experienced a fix for this? This continues to happen to me constantly and it's extremely frustrating.
It appears to happen by far the most with the Karabiner 98K. Whether you're a sniper or another class, the K98 for me has a 50% success rate at shooting. I end up having to continuously aim at an enemy and click constantly until it registers.

Some information:
I thought it may have been an issue with upscaling resolution using DL so I have tried gaming in upscaled 4K from 1440p and native 4K. Tried 1080p. Issue persists.
GPU: RTX 3080
CPU: Ryzen 5900X
Monitor: MSI MPG321UR-QD (not that I think this matters)
G-Sync activated. Tried with this off too.
Windows 10 (latest updates)
Mouse: Glorious Model O wireless. Tested multiple games and only HLL has the issue.
Tested mouse clicks on third-party services and LMB works 100% of clicks. Tried cable to remove any potential wireless receiver issues, but the issue persists.

My next test will be to play around with the mouse polling and refresh rate to see if this affects anything.

I am at a loss as to why some people have this issue and some don't. Would love to hear if anyone else experiences this, your setup, and see if we can find any commonalities.

October 2024 now and STILL this bug persists. Never seems to happen with an automatic etc, just the blot action rifles. For me, I play Sniper most of the time and the amount of dead clicks I get is unreal. And yes, my weapon is loaded.

This thread is from 2022, it’s now 2024, there have been multiple updates since and this issue is STILL NOT RESOLVED.

The KAR98 has a slow enough rate of fire, lead alone having it not fire easily 25% of the time when you click your mouse.

THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY. It is beyond infuriating.

It’s the main rifle for Axis, and the amount of close range duals that go lost because of the weapon not firing against an already superior M1 Garand is abysmal considering the community has been posting about it for 3yrs+

Esports is a growing industry, I suggest community outcry needs to be listened to or player bases will up and vanish and go find something else to play. Start prioritising major bug fixes over $14 DLC’s.

This bug is still happening for me as of Feb 2025. Happened on two different maps with two different guns last night. Affecting both Kar98 and SMLE. I am playing through the Xbox app on Game Pass.
