    Default Some new weird online bugs? -everlasting quakes

    I had a weird bug today while playing AVALON.
    I picked up a quake and used it but it still remained active so I could use it again & again.
    It wouldn't absorb.
    I didn't think it was the right thing to do to keep using it,so I kept racing basically as if I had no weapons
    It was active until my shield energy depleted and I died due to a particularly nasty patch of bombs & mines, a typical AVALON Cambodia situation.
    Anybody else had this happen?

    I also raced upside down on Tech De Ra without respawning for quarter of a lap,another 1st.
    Pretty disorientating when you play in cockpit view,it was like a perpetual BR .

    Very honorable not to use it - I think I probably would have tsunami-spammed like there's no tomorrow, laughing my arse off in the process
    But yeah, weird, but that happens sometimes that pickups just won't go away. Still waiting for the day that happens to me on Metropia R, with turbos

    I have had that problem with a Leech Beam. It wouldn't lock on to anyone and I couldn't absorb it. Wasn't fun racing on Anulpha Pass with everyone firing almighty weapons and me sitting at the back with an eternal Leech Beam...

    I've had the Leech Beam before.
    I think that was the first weapon bug ever reported before Fury was released, and I've seen a few people suffer that during races [which makes them easy targets ].
    Leech beam seems to happen while racing Metropia or Vineta K more than any other track for some reason.

    I'd love a Turbo bug as well,I sometimes think some people have received this when they get ridiculously ahead on a basically none BR track in a very short space of time ,but I can't remember anybody reporting it.
    It would be a pretty rare occurrence at any rate,just like getting perpetual Quake.
    A perpetual Auto pilot for that vile Modesto track at phantom speed would be a welcome relief, I'm tired of seeing that red pop-up saying I have eliminated myself.

    I'm getting this but I can still get new weapons. I just have a permanent Leech Beam 'ball' at the front of my ship.

    Also, this might just be lag, but occasionally it takes about 5 tries in order to fire a Quake. It triggers the sound when trying, but the quake animation is only played when it actually fires.
