	Ever fire secondary shock and hear it fire, but not see it ? I hear it fire but it's not there , I'll shoot a primary just in case to see if it will combo, but nothing.Seems to be happening more often. Also happened with rocket launcher once that I recall. Anyone else ?

	on my server, or anywhere? I've witnessed a couple times in the last week (on my server) where the lag got so bad that I permanently had the red disconnect sign. Seems to last 5 minutes then it's ok. The last time it happened I took note of the time, 2:55pm MST, I meant to be playing at the same time today to see if it happened but didn't get on the computer in time.

	I only play on two servers for the most part, and the other is not an all weapon server. So it's just on your server. Don't recall any lag when it happened, was thinking it's just a UT glitch and was curious if anyone else experienced it.

	I did not understand what you said the first time but got it the second time. I can't say that has ever happened to me with THAT weapon but I can say it has happened often with a redeemer before. Tell me, does your phantom blast still cause damage at all or does it just make sound yet never actually materialize. My deemers just make the sound. Nothing else happens.

	Well, only thing I can think of that has changed on my end is new mouse. But I click and hear it so I don't think it's the mouse, gotta be a weird UT thingy.

	It's probably a replication thing, which is, essentially, a weird ut thingy in itself, lol. I have no idea if I know 50% of replication by now, or 5%. Always seems to be something I need to learn about it with each new project. A year ago I almost went bald tearing my hair out trying to figure out a replication bug with hook's deemer.

	Maybe an other bug from UTcd2. What render have you ?

	I can say that this will not be a CD#2 bug.

	Yes, does this happen when "not online" in a practice session?

	Using OpenGL renderer version 3.6, no CD2 textures installed, and I don't think it ever happens in practice mode.

	Based on that it never happened in practice mode I would blame it on the net code. It's the best answer I got. Sorry.

	Did you ever adjust your Tick Rate? That can screw up weapon response big time in some cases. I think the rate of 20 is standard or stock out of the box. NetServerMaxTickRate=20
