alot of the time when i am driving something and die inside of it the next time i play LA my jumppack does not work at all until i relog. as i play LA all the time it ruins my fun. is anyone else getting this issue? it seem like i am the only one in my outfit.

Yes, happens all the time... very annoying. I've found that only relog works, very annoying when you have primary ams at a good base fight. :( The main reason I ended up more certs into Engy... for those times LA doesn't work for me.

I get this bug every now and then.

Maybe it's like the max suit bug, where the game is somehow remembering and/or forcing the last configuration upon you after death and since it turns off the fly button while in a vehicle, completely redoing your keymapping, it "remembers" that and never forgets, lol.

but if that was the case why would it still let me jump normally?

Massively annoying bug :\

There are some firefights where I have a huge overwhelming need to be LA. The death screen screams at me that im dying because I should be jetting over obstacle X and flank rather than run into the meatgrinder.

But then a LA without a jetpack is a sad thing, so I have waddle in as a heavy and eat CARV because the range isn't in the SAW sweet spot. :(

I love when I first discover my jetpack didn't work when the enemy see's me bunnyhopping in front of them. Little did they know I was actually trying to jump over them :D

My main class is LA and i used to get this alot. However since i got 4 cert bars outta 6 for the jump jets i havnt encountered this issue which is strange.

This bug existed in early beta and appears to have returned.

The bug in early beta cause the jets to cut in the middle of using them - seemingly randomly. They would work again second or so later. But it tended to get you killed in a fight.


The bug now is that randomly after respawning your jets wont work at all and can only be fixed by relogging.

This bug is exactly the one we had in beta (tbh i actually don't recall it ever being fixed). You respawn, and for some reason the jetpack doesn't work at all untill you re-log.
Very annoying and needs to be fixed.

Not sure if it's the same exact bug though. In beta my jetpack would sometimes work and not work in the same life over periods of a few minutes at a time, for instance I'd be climbing and then lose all thrust power and fall to my death. This seems like it either works 100% or doesn't 100%.

It seems to happen if you get killed while the jump pack is activated.

This bug is happening to me more and more recently. Annoying as hell.

Only thing I've goud to temp fix it is to log out. :/

Same bug happens to other special abilities too, just more noticable on LA.


What annoyed me also is that half the time, you can't activate the special ability while holding shift for running. Crouching can be buggy too even with regards to getting stuck (shouldn't be able to stand up at all, instead you get stuck).

Spawn light assault..yay no jump pack!

Go heavy activate shield still die in two hits...while freakin NC can take 1000000000000000 headshots.

Impossible because no clip holds that amount, on a serious note still wrong as someone who plays nc.

I notice I just die as fast as I do in the engy class. My HA is squishy even with shield on and the certs I spent on the shield regen and HP. The other heavys take more hits than I do. I mean freakin 3 bullets to me vs my 5 to them doesn't kill them. But I die to 2-3.

Do you have to cert jump pack?

I play heavy on TR........last longer than most because I keep my ass moving and a close watch on shield energy.

Play smart. Play better.

I have on my HA HP certed to like 12 or something and my regen shield up like 3. I am talking full charge shield > activated > die in 3 hits...to any class..LA..Medics..engys.


My HA freakin squishy even when I am strafing near corners to hide back in cover which I never make it.

I feel the complete opposite when i'm playing heavy, to the point where I tried playing medic last night and just felt totally naked without the shield. Especially when it comes to grenades, since I usually just tank them with my shield.

However I still get owned a lot (though to be honest, I sort of expect to get owned by TR heavies at very close range, that's what their weapons are supposed to be for).

Which shield are you using?

How can I tell? I put certs into ability shield Regen and suit slot health. I would log in but not near a PC. The shield one is above the resist one. I think....
