I noticed this myself after I was hit by a stun grenade. I was killed pretty quickly so I assumed the effect would fade after the stun did, but you're saying that it persists until the next elimination?

Thank you.

Re: HvV can't use abilities after stun

Hello David.

 

Yes, as I have written above, the stun works fine and it temporarily disables your abilities. However, sometimes your abilities won't become active again after you have been stunned. If you take a close look at this 20-second video here https://youtu.be/xvMq2nTCtPs?t=2m5s you can see exactly what I mean. In the video, you see me as Han Solo fighting Kylo. He stuns me (freeze ability) after which I escape and survive. Around the 2:20 mark my middle ability comes out of cooldown, but turns instantly grey, which means I cant use it.

 

The only way to use them again is to die/respawn. 

 

If there is anything else you would like to know, feel free to reply to me.

Thank you, that's very clear.

 

There were some other good bugs in that video too, thank you for it. Also the iden animation bug at the end was quite amusing.

This bug also disables jumping in my case when playing as Rey. Blocking and dodging still works though.

@vVrathh @DYSPROssium Thank you for the extra detail. I have word that some (and possibly all) instances of this bug may have been fixed*.

Can you let us know when you last encountered any manifestation of this issue?


*Unfortunately bug hunting can be tricky, and while a fix might remove a lot of instances of a bug, it might not catch them all.

@EA_David I have played HvV today and watched closely for this bug. I have the updated version of the game and this bug is still present on PC (04-12-2017 23:02). 

 

Here is a clip I filmed today (after the update). You can see me as Han Solo using the middle (sharpshooter) ability. Then the right ability goes into grey modes (not usable), which is as expected. Then the right ability comes online after I finished the middle one (this is visible in the video by playing it back slowly, you can do this in youtube under settings)

Then Darth Chokes me. After he did that, my right ability can't be used anymore. You can see this in the video at the grey colour. I tried to use it but that doesn't work. 

 

It's really short: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkLWGub8tRA&feature=youtu.be

 

(from the 0:13 I should be able to use it)

 

Since it is out of cooldown after he chokes Han, it should be directly usable instead of being grey.
