Description:
On some of the weapons ,mainly notice it with grenadier but has happened with every weapon at some point, I hit the reload button to reload and nothing happens. It goes through the animation but when I go to shoot a grenade I have to reload again.

Steps to Reproduce:
Get grenade launcher and play online game play. Not sure exactly what causes it.

Screenshots / Video:
Don't have any right now.

Tested On:
All maps has happened with the past two versions v0.917







Thread Title: Reload Bug

That happened to me. Looks like AA3, that bugful game :( . I believe it has something to do with high ping spikes. I normally play with ~200 ping on US servers, but sometimes I (RARELY) get a lag spike of up to 500 ping, sometimes I have to re-reload.

This is not a bug, as Wolf stated it is caused occasionally by lag.

Ok thanks for letting me know why this happens. Is there a way to optimize the PR connection
settings to help this?

Nothing really to do with PR. You would have to check your internet connection at home or contact your ISP

I allways hit reload after reloading to make sure it did the trick.

While you're lagging, try looking directly at the ground or sky when reloading so your PC doesn't have to render as many objects?

Would put less stress on your PC and allow you to reload without problems.

Usually works for me anyways.

Also, you have to wait till the end of the reload animation before switching weapons.
