A hilarious Battlefield 2042 bug is making weapons spin whenener they are fired, players have reported. The troubled shooter developed by DICE and published by Electronic Arts received a major update recently.
Like many modern triple-A titles, Battlefield 2042 had a lot of issues when it first shipped out. Players encountered netcode problems at the time of its late 2021 launch, and the game was riddled with bugs that ruined an otherwise decent multiplayer FPS experience.

Like Battlefield 2042, Rainbow Six: Siege also received a big update recently in the form of Operation Deadly Omen. This expansion added a new Rainbow operator named Deimos, and it also reworked Rainbow Six: Siege's shield system, among other things.
In addition to fixing a number of bugs and implementing several quality-of-life improvements, Battlefield 2042's controversial Update 7.0.0 also gave players a new map, Haven, as well as three new weapons, namely, the AK 5C assault rifle, SCZ-3 submachine gun,
