Crossbow reaload-bug

[Lennu]

I've ran into a this bug a couple of times while playing as a crossbowman.
If I get interrupted (take dmg, bumb by horse...) on the very same moment I'm releasing the shot, I can't reload anymore, all my char does does is that he takes the aim with unloaded crossbow, also dropping and re-picking the xbow doesn't help. I'm not sure if the bolt ever gets really shot = does it just disappear, so that my xbow becomes unloaded but the projectile is never spawned. When a next round starts or when I respawn the xbow is fine again tho. But still, kinda annoying bug since xbowman losing his weapon is like a 2hand spammer without his two hands.

Anyone else ran into this bug before? Happened to me a couple of times already.
I can take a couple is screenies about this the next time it happens, if needed.

Sad but true. Xbow is the only weapon that can be broken during the game...

[Lennu]

So it's not a bug after all?   

[Gurnisson]

Yeah, standard stuff. wpf loss and rain bothers me even more though. Speaking of which, are there any other classes that have that many disadvantages?

[Blondin]

Happen to me 4 or 5 times since i play, once it happens in a Strategus siege... was realy lame.
I don't use xbow anymore and i was thinking it's just a bug with my game, but if it happens to many ppl, may be bug should be fixed.

if not that will make less bolt in my head

had it once aswell, but you can still pick up another crossbow, this worked for me!

Happened to me a couple times.

Nothing at all that you can do except to drop it. If you picked it back up it's still bugged , if someone else picks it, it still bugged, so you have to rely on your melee (hopefully you have one , else you're screwed) until you find another one. The sad thing is it happens to people with MW xbow, so they have to "downgrade" to a normal xbow for the rest of the round unless they are very lucky

We tried being kicked while having it ready to fire (where it get bugged when you have it in your hand and can't reload), tried to get falling damage, we tried almost anything we thought of and nothing worked to fixed it :X It only happens when you receive damage while shooting.

oh i tried this too a couple times, usally when somebody kicks my or when a cav bumps me when i release the bolt.
but i somehow always get it to work again, i thought it was an lag issue with in my game, but since u guys have tried it too, it's probably an bug or on purpose.
"Damn crossbow, arrggh" Bjarky starts hitting the jammed thing, aims for a while, cancels aim, changes weapon, goes back too his crossbow, aims for while, cancels aim, tryes to shoot, nothing happens... after a couple forths and backs Bjarky is able to reload, aims, shoots: PEW "Muahaha it works again, damn crappy technology!!" Bjarky tries to reload again, but something weird happens: "What the crossbow still is loaded?!"
After getting it to work again, I've experienced that i get back the lost bump shot, without reload, on top of the next shot = 2x shots on 1 reload o_O
thats why i always thought i had a lag problem...

When this happened to my xbow char I got it working again (drop, pickup another, drop, pickup mine) but my ammo counter disappeared and I could reload it infinite times. 

[Reinhardt]

When you pick up a bolt while reloading, the animation finishes up but you can't fire and have to reload again. There's another one.

[Everkistus]

Both bugs are true and happened to me as well on a few occasions. Annoying.

[Hirlok]

had that twice today, really annoying... is this a engine bug or cRPG? Never happened to me in SP/native... If it is cRPG based, a fix would be nice (well ok, or not, going back to longbow next gen anyways...  )
