Okay... I have been playing this game for about a week now, and have a few concerns/complaints. Just a few minor bugs/glitches. I cannot (ever) purchase juice on LaseRazor. No, the juice is not sold out, no the server does not have purchasing juice enabled. I simply cannot buy it. I walk up to the juice screen and press "F" and I get nothing. I have a friend who cannot use his blue button skill quite frequently. His keyboard is not broken, he just cant use the ability. He has to jump off the edge in order to get it back, but sometimes he still doesn't have it. Another friend I play with frequently has an issue as well. On the leaderboards it displays his wins as 1, when I have won dozens of games with him on my team.
I get this at least 3 times a match every time I play assassin...Have thrown away so many streaks to fix it
Skills not firing is quite possibly caused by your keyboard not being able to process certain key-combinations properly. I often have that problem when back-pedalling as Tank. Mind you, D is my blue skill and and C is back-pedal so I have binds that rival Scathis' for weirdness.
I bind my skills to mouse buttons so never have that problem (keyboard combination lockup), and I can also see the skill circle being "pressed" in when I click it, but nothing happens. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm3hQR-D4yo If you watch the blue skill circle... @15 seconds in dash skill triggers fine @17 seconds in dash skill bugs until death
I get the juice machine issue too. It doesn't seem restricted to laser razer though. I get around it by using an Autohotkey macro key that just hits my "buy" key like 15 times in an instant. Your friend that can't use his blue skill.. is that only on assassin, or is it all classes? I've had problems activating the assassin's dash before too. Seems to work again after dying.. not sure what triggers it.
Well he mostly plays assassin... but he said it has happened to him on support with hack before as well. Thanks for all your responses! Will have to try some of the potential fixes
I recall this bug being posted before. I'm not sure if it ever got an actual response, however. There are multiple situations (particularly with the assassin) where the blue skill won't work properly, although I think this has less to do with the fact that it is the blue skill and more to do with the fact that these skills can be continually used. For example, the assassin's dash skill will "lock up" or not operate correctly at all. When it locks up, the skill will partially activate for a moment and then disable itself pretty quickly afterwords, with no actual sprint effect (note that when it locks up, it does have actual meter left over). However, continued attempts at sprinting will eventually yield results. Additionally I've noticed that one can usually anticipate this sprinting lock up, as before it completely locks up sprint tends to work less and less on key press. On the other hand, there are other times where the dash skill does not have ANY skill meter, and it does not regenerate and is incapable of use. This also disables the assassin's lunge as well when this occurs. This appears to only happen after a death. On one rare occasion I've also had the airstrike skill and hacking skill for the support fail to load any meter at the same time. This only occurred once with the support, however, after a particular death. I didn't do anything different that I recall before dying. Anyway, just thought I'd throw in some extra information on the matter. It is a legitimate issue and doesn't seem to be particularly isolated.
I've noticed the 'unable to use blue skill' bug before. Mostly as support though, I find that even though my hack skill is fully charged I'm unable to use it. It doesn't become illuminated when near turrets either. The only solution I've found is to get killed or throw myself off an edge, and it comes back after respawn.
no, i have this issue with a gamepad. it literally eats you skills pretty much. sometimes the skill looks disabled. other times you use it but it doesnt come out. and when the skills arent glitching, the weapons do it instead (my hhgun the other day wasnt coming out to hurt or heal, and the shotgun didnt damage and the weapon itself didnt animate like it was firing tho it did look like bullets were coming out yet the bullets didnt cause damage) i can now see why uber might seem stretched pretty thin, this stuff is probably eating their time up. but hopefully as they improve it slowly, it will make both versions of the game better.
Yeah, after seeing the video with the bug it's pretty clear that keyboard aren't the issue. So I'm lost for ideas, because I only ever saw the bug while running away and Blue Skill always started working again when I stood my ground.
