Campaign weapon went wonky - plot spoiler

Post » Mon Aug 16, 2010 10:40 pm

Love the campaign play it in 3D and looks awsome till I suddenly cant use the SCAR

SPOILER PART
after captured and fell from helicopter the scar worked
next step where go thru bunker to hive area scar
shows no ammo except 4/4 shotgun attachment but when reload
the " bullets " say full but show zero (still 4+4 shotgun)
shotgun attachment works and sniper rifle works but not scar bullets??

I dropped it once and picked up a feline and the loaded out scar I dropped disappeared
off the screen. I hate to have to change cause I have a ton of extras on the scar !!

any Ideas or how to back up a level? maybe it woulnt happen again...

UPDATE
OH replay mission says will erase savegame data so I havent tried it and it wont let me copy onto USB
says locked tho if PSN were not down it seems it would copy there online backup

1.02 patch is this the newest or are they working on another for PS3

Well it did it again

when I enter that level with a fully loaded out spec ops SCAR it kills its usage (except shotgun attachment)

thats stupid, I have to pick up a feline with nothing and just toss the gun I worked hard to build

seems buggy to me !!

Just to quickly say, it doesn't matter if you drop a certain gun with lots of attachments because whenever you unlock an attachment for a gun, it stays unlocked. If you pick up another of the same gun and hold Select, all the weapon attachments that you have unlocked will be available to use.

yeah but now Im at the Hive and dont know if Ill see another SCAR

I did find others on other sites that have the same issue and various points of the game
where the scar just quits reloading and says full at the ammo depot

EA said sorry talk to other players IIRC figures



as a side note when I restarted the previous level the upgrades were there then not then back again
as I died messing around to see if anything was changed

seems a bug that isnt being addressed

moved on as suggested and as I found other versions of SCAR rifles they are FUBAR also

shoots 40 then empty but at ammo crate says full even different scar i.e. not the same spec ops scar

so lemme get this straight. you reloaded level. then dropped scar and went forward through the level and found another scar and same thing happend again with it not lettng you fire the weapon? if thats the case maybe you should just start the level over completely. not just go to continue mission. and ive only ran into that weapon malfunction on corporate callapse and power out with the JAWS wont let me shoot more then one rocket.

I've had the ammo counter go wonky in that area too. Not the exact same thing that happened to you, but similar stuff.
