HALO 4 - Reclaimer - stuck with Targeting module

HALO 4 - Reclaimer - stuck with Targeting module and cannot fire weapon on PC (Steam)

100% reproducible and game is dead at this point as you cannot move forward without first being able to disable the targeting module from being selected when trying to fire a weapon.

In Reclaimer after taking out the main covenant laser system and moving the mammoth to the 3 pods to destroy. you had picked up the targeting module and it is stuck. You cannot release the target module and every time you attempt to fire a weapon it activates placing in hand and you cannot proceed. The game is stuck at this point and cannot move forward without first figuring pout how to release the targeting module from the hand. No key appears to work and unable to fir any weapons.

Operations
Start Mammoth mission. Destroy all first level covenant and wraiths. Pick up targeting module. Destroy covenant laser. Round the corner destroying 2 more wraiths and 2 banshees. Attempt to fire a weapon at the 3 pod locations to move forward. It is not possible. The selection of MB1 activates the targeting module removing any loaded weapon.
The game becomes unplayable at this point as you are stuck not being able to use any weapons.

There is no version I can locate. Release date is Dec 3 2019.
Playing on PC - Win 10 - AMD Ryxen 9 3900X, 32 gig RAM, MSI 2080 Super. No issues with visuals or effects. Just a glitch in targeting selection operation.
No way to drop the targeting module to allow me to use a weapon. The game is essentially dead at this point since there is no way to move forward with the targeting module that also allows me to use a weapon.
I can create video that illustrates the issue consistently if necessary.

Please make sure and file bug reports in the Halo Support site about these issues: https://aka.ms/HaloSupport

I figured out the solution, for whatever reason once you pick up the designator it unmaps your firing key, remaping the key fixed it for me.

WOW!!! Would not have thought of that. Thanks.
I have [4] keybinds unset!
I will let ‘HALO’ support know.

I’ll mess with the keybinds since it won’t let me just adjust the FIRE option, I have to adjust all of them to validate and move forward.

Thanks for the information.

Thanks for the info DD.

Didn’t work though. HALO is still indicating there are missing keybinds.

I informed HALO support as well. “Maybe” they will patch it.

I’ll look more through the settings to see what else might be missing from the keybinds blocking my changes.

Thanks again.

I’m sorry I forgot to mention that it also apparently messes with the keybindings for the other halo games, try setting them all to default it should work then. honestly it’s incredibly stupid. if you go through all of the keybindings for all of the halo games and reset them to default it should allow you to save.
