Let me first say I have experienced this issue in Halo 4 MCC with the BR and DMR mostly. OK, so last night I’m running some Team Double and I had the Magnum equip. So I’m taking shots at my opponent and I will say around my 4th shots I hit RT and nothing came out and I know for a fact I press RT hard enough for the weapon to fire. It’s kind of like it skip a shot where nothing came out and when I press it again it fires. I had to swap to the SMG to finish my opponent because that really threw me off. I’m not sure if it’s my controller. That rarely happen though, but I encounter it a few times from MCC Halo 4 to now Halo 5. So I’m wondering if anyone else had experience that gun jam bug?
Are you sure it’s not your controller? I have never experienced such an issue.
Sounds like your controller
Never.l, dude. I know the original one controllers have bad LB/ RB response and would destroy my melee timing in the worst spot. It could be your controller.
I think it happens to everyone occasionally, but not enough to be annoying. Maybe you pressed the trigger too soon, but it’s most likely the controller’s precision unable to detect the button sometimes. It’s noticeable in Halo just because the kill times are slower than say other shooters.
Gun jamming has never been a feature in Halo and still is not. So it was either an issue with your controller, or you tried to fire before the trigger-timer reset (controls how fast you can spam shots.) Also it may be related to lag, but I’ve never encountered anything like that.
