    It's happened plenty of times to me already.

    I have money and I want to buy juice. When I go up to the station all of a sudden "F" doesn't register. I sit there for a minute spamming the same key in the desperate hope that it works. I've been killed while doing this and it's so annoying.

    The most sure fire way to get it is when you approach it for the very first time. Still no guarantees.

    Maybe this is Assault specific?

    Both dispensers on LazeRazor have to be triggered from an angle a few times to work for example. You've gotta experiment, I hope it will be looked into, staying at dispenser when your base is under attack in overtime kinda misses the point.

    Yeah sometimes I've had the dispensers not work too.

    Other times I've noticed you've had to look at it straight on, if you look at it at an angle nothing happens. Pull out the protractor and measure the angles. :lol:

    Stand on the vending machine and look down.

    This is a ridiculously annoying bug.

    There are only 2 maps that it occurs on that I've seen, and only for Assault: LazoRazor and GrenadeIII.

    LazoRazor stand on top of the dispenser.
    GrenadeIII look down and directly away from the dispenser while standing in front of it.

    I've had it happen on ammo mule, it's probably a problem with the dispenser itself.

    I look up and down while mashing F.
    Never had a problem since adopting this trick.

    Yeah, the trick is to look down at it from an angle.

    Stand on top of it if you can

    If you can't (support), stand right in the center of it, look straight away from it and down

    I've actually lost a game to this glitch. We were forced into overtime and I was trying to buy juice to try to see who could cheese the moneyball the fastest, and I couldn't buy it. :(

    It seems to specifically affect assault, as I've never had trouble buying juice with any other class. What everyone else is saying: Stand on top of the sign and look down seems to be the most effective method for me.

    Would be nice if it gets fixed though.

    I play assault very rarely, but I've got the bug as pretty much anyone else.
