    See title. I never had an issue with this before the Valentines update. It already happened 4 times and is a huge problem when you play Assault as main and you can't use the bomb. It happens when I respawned and was fixed after I suicided.

    I have a Logitech MX518 and have the red and blue skills on the mouse buttons 4 and 5 if that's any help. I didn't fiddle with any of the settings other than key remapping. Game cache validation didn't find any problems.

    Anybody else with this problem?

    Yep, I've had it happen both at initial game-start spawn and post-death spawn. I was Assault and couldn't bomb for an entire life, which is a major bummer when you're running Skill Regen as your Gold endorsement. :p

    Happened to me the other night on my Gunner. I juiced to take out base turrets. After juice ended I had 2 people on me I could have slammed out of the arena but the skill wouldn't fire.

    I come across this bug (and small variations of it) every 15 or so games, usually after a respawn.
    When this bug happens for me:
    For Assault, I can't use the Bomb (Blue)
    For Assassin, I can use the Dash (Blue) nor Lunge
    For Tank, I can't use the Product Grenade (Blue)
    For Sniper however, I can't use the Traps (Yellow)
    I don't recall it ever happening to me as a Gunner, and for Support, it's usually Hack (Blue) again.

    Sometimes when this happens, I suicide (by jumping off the edge, sometimes I type "suicide" into the console.) Even with that, in about half the cases, I've still got the bug active. Being killed by an enemy Pro seems to fix it.
