I played 5-6 ranked matches with a friend last night, and as i am aware of the gun jamming bug, it hasnt happent to me often enough to stop playing. But last night it was happening every other gunfight. It happend more time in a single game than the entire last week combined. Needless to say i did horrible in my matches. I kept going thinking theres no way it was going to jam that consistently every game. But sure enough, every game i played last night was non stop jamming, made a few clips as well. Strange thing is, it only happend to my friend once or twice the entire session.
I haven’t experienced it yet so I couldn’t say…

you’re lucky. Horrible feeling losing a fight that you were winning all because the gun fails to shoot a shot. and with 4 shots to kill its crucial. my clips go, da da da, da da da, …jam …, da da dead
Oh I get it everytime I pick up a heatwave
I just had to happen to me for the first time yesterday and it was annoying as hell. I already prefer AR Team Slayer, but having my BR jam in a slayer match really soured my mood.
only had it happen on heat wave once so far. But i had it happen 15-20x per match on the BR last night. it was crazy.
For me it’s the side-kick, it will suddenly fire at a 1/3 of the normal fire rate, it happens a lot, and then for sure I lose the trade-off unless the other player has a crappy connection.
Ive experienced it a couple times; or at least what I suspect is it. Gun shooting but nothing coming out, or just being outright unresponsive to button inputs
Anyone have a list of guns this happens with besides the BR and heatwave?
Fix will launch next week. Internal build is already fixed. Just going through the Xbox certification process to be cleared for release.

those are the only 2 i have had it happen with so far. And until last night it hasnt been something that happened enough to bother me more than slight annoyance. But after the amount of jams per game i had halo is pretty unplayable and enough so i made this post about it. What i dont get is what could cause me to get hit so hard by it while others seem to only encounter it rarely.

yup thats it, a button press and nothing… Most people have the halo BR timing down so its pretty easy to notice a blank shot in the mix of the normal fire rate while shooting a target.
I swear they said they were going to fix that issue. And the tank gun still isn’t back in campaign.
At this point 343 has like a 3 week to 4 month turnaround for a basic update or hotfix
Wonder if that’s when the tank gun is complete is coming back
They’re targeting next week for a release of the patch:

I had one game where it seem to happen every other gun fight.
Only every now and then in other games.
Looking forward to the fix.
Gun jamming happens on BR, Sidekick, Heat wave, even Mangler and Rocket Launcher.
Usually i can fire the second Rocket right after the first. Not when this gun jamming issue happen.
It takes out a lot of fun: Lag Spikes, desync, sometime placed on oversea servers (high ping) and Gun jamming. The gameplay relies actually more on luck than skill.
1 week wow that pretty quick
Granted I do expect plenty of other things to be broken. Just kinda the trend everytime they touch the game now, since the base foundation coding is so piled on with tech debt. It’s kinda Inevitable unfortunately.
But hopefully they are minor issues that don’t really break the gameplay.
I wouldn’t say it’s happening often to me, but it’s definitely got worse from over a week ago, when I last played
Probably yes, though not 100% sure.
