PC Difficulty with shooting bow

[testsubject]

This happens with or without zoom.

When I draw back the bow and release, it does not always fire. I have even waited 1 second after the pull back animation has finished and still no releasing the arrow; it just unloads the bow and waits. I then pull back again and then it releases. This is not repeatable; it happens randomly but often enough to be problematic.

I really noticed it on horde night. I would draw back and try to shoot multiple times and nothing happens and then I would get a hit.

Are you playing SP or MP?

If MP.... it could be a ping issue?

Sorry to miss that: Single Player.

I have had that happen also. I thought someone mentioned it is a known glitch. I use to have to switch to a different slot and switch back to bow to get it to work again...until it would happen again. Although I don't recall it happening for a while now.

What happened is you probally released it a split second before it was fully charged, so it cancelled the shot, it happens to me a lot as well. Best way to know your ready to fire, is to listen for the sound, don't pay attention to the bar, as it sometimes is now synced up properly.
