Noticed this bug this morning. Holding down fire on one weapon group precludes rapid-fire (i.e. button-mash chain-fire) on another group; instead, the chain-fire group will fire as though the button were being held down (slower one-after-another firing). First noticed this while holding a tag laser, in its own group, and trying to rapid-fire medium lasers, in their own chain-fire group.

I use rapid-fire all the time. Say I have 4 Medium Lasers in a group; I may not want to group-fire, but I can pop off UP TO 4 shots in quick succession. This is an essential control mechanic for me, helps me control my heat and rate of fire. For most of my mechs, especially the ones running TAG, this bug really breaks my playstyle.

Tried this in testing grounds and in game, tried different groups, mechs, settings, key binds. Same results throughout.

DERP, I knew I forgot something; ticket submitted. Thanks!
I'm more curious as to whether anyone else has noticed this as well, or if it's some quirk of my control setup or peripherals.
