Is this what you are talking about ?

You can easily fix this by pressing ESC 2 times. (Just go to the menu n exit)

Invincible glith. Because they know NOW how it is done n how to perform the 3rd person view on soldiers.

I've had that glitch one time since the game came out, dunno if this helps but it might.
I read alot of people installing from the discs having this problem and got it solved by uninstalling it and downloading it instead. Also, what I can remember, I had that problem when I had the cloud-data enabled, after I disabled it I've never had the problem again.

Remember to keep your graphics drivers updated at all time, even though it works fine otherwise.

Might be that Nvidia works better but that's a question for the gods, I'm running with Intel Core i5 and Nvidia GTX570.

Well, I had this glitch for every single match in the EU server, even after rejoining the game 2 or 3 times, luckily im in a tank most of the time, but I couldn't repair my tank because of this.

It's a bug!


Chukonuku, your bug has been in the game various forms since release, people used to do it intentionally for video recording. The bug we're speaking about seems to lose inventory, you can't select guns or fire them.

If you're going to do a survey please include all options. I've never had this bug, ever.

My intent was to poll those getting the bug to see if there was a server that was doing it more often, not to get an overall count of those afflicted. I'm a bit surprised by the results, actually... I expected a more even distribution, since this seems like one of those lovely universal bf bugs.

its not universal if it only happens on GC... but if both servers run the same settings and one has it clearly more then the other, then something is f*ed up with that particular install.

you should've also surveyed for what team it happens more ...

It's a known bug that happens on all servers.

I've had it on the server we played on Karkand a week ago, but I can't remember which. I also had it on Alborz this past weekend on the EU server and I've never experienced this bug or even heard of it outside of GC

The Karkand round was played on the US server and at least from what I heard from some of the STAR players' perspective, the glitch started occuring during the Karkand rounds.

i don't thinks its GC. yday i tried to play with a friend who hadn't played for a while...he came with a fresh installation of the game and got the no weapon glitch in every server we tried. i don't know if its worth mentioning, he just has the standard game (no premium or any expansion pack).

EA/DICE provided us with version R35 (1097264) and instructed us to roll it out at 1am PST today (12/18); we are just finishing this rollout now.

This new version fixes a couple of bugs. A Battlelog post was supposed to detail these, but apparently has not been made yet. We are not allowed to give a changelog separately.
This was applied a minute ago on our NA server.

Only fixed 3 bugs, no gun is not one of them.
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/ne ... 393868831/

didn't experience it this EUBO.

well, it seems to happen a lot on the GC servers and nowere else for the most of us.
and referring to the post on the BF forums - that bug is almost a year old, if they haven't fixed it until now, i wouldn't recommend holding your breath til they release a fix. you might turn blue.

I had the gunglitch again in EUBO 8 jan (together with a bunch more people). I also had an episode where I only could move my guy sideways - I couldnĀ“t shoot, move in any other direction or do anything constructively. Fixed it by suicide.
Anone else experienced this? Is it a bug or just crappy luck?

saw it happen once on karkand in one of the Battledays, and this EUBO on Armored shield.
did it happen to you on revive? ask someone to kill/revive you, it fixes the problem.
