I’ve been running the recon kit with motion balls a lot recently and I’ve come across a bug where sometimes they do not deploy correctly. Instead of throwing them I end up just pulling them out and holding them and have to press R2 to deploy. I haven’t been able to figure out how to do this intentionally it just seems to happen randomly and sometimes when it happens I don’t have the time to switch to my primary when someone runs around the corner for example. Has anyone else noticed this at all? ---

Happens if your secondary is out when you press it. Also does this with ammo bags and med kits. Did this is BF3. ---

Has anyone else noticed this at all? If you pay attention to it you’ll notice that this happen when you got your pistol out, it happens also with medpack and ammopack. I usually switch to my primary and then throw one, or just press L2 if i have my pistol equipped (remember to switch to the pistol again, because you’ll hold another motion ball if you don’t press triangle, and if an enemy arrive is almost a certain death). I still have to figure out if the motion ball spot while you hold it in your hand, i think it doesn’t. Have a nice day bro. ---

Thanks I hadn’t noticed it was happening when I had my secondary out. Now that I know it might come in handy for checking how many I have left.
