Which client has the firebug problem?

 The person who doesn't realize they have a firebug?  Everthing works fine Shooting, Reloading, Aiming , no lag.

Good high speed Internet.

Or the person who has said more then once  you have a firebug , but nobody else seems to notice, and doesn't 

tell you if you did or do?

So how in his words  Do I FIX YOUR DAMN GUN.

Thx

I used to appear to be a case of you not receiving the data packet that tells your client the other play has stopped shooting, which was why if you asked them to shoot again you would usually then receive the pack that says that they had stopped shooting the 2nd shot, and thus the sound stops.

 

However, currently doing that doesn't seem to always fix it, which suggests its related to something else. It's certainly on the long list of things to get looked at and sorted.

idk, but I do know there seems to be a lot more fire bugs lately.

Lately there have been more firebugs, including ENEMY firebugs. This is a major problem. Recently it’s happened a few times that an enemy was hiding but since he was firebugged, I could hear and even see where he was. 
 

The first time it happened I wasn’t sure what I was seeing, so I ran up and killed him. Since then I’ve tried to resist because I know it’s totally unfair. I’ll try to let them go unless they get anywhere near me. But my point is that this is much more serious than just the friendly firebug. It affects gameplay much more drastically if your enemy can hear you and see you because you’re basically the audio/visual equivalent of a jackhammer with a strobe light.

What I do now is respond, then his firebug go's away. Did that to a 232 last time, also with someones engine that wouldn't shut off for me.

I don't think I've had a fire bug since the patch;  well done rats!

If we can kill the engine bug as well I'll be very happy.
