(Sorry if this has been posted already, couldn't see it in the top few pages.)

I'm having trouble chain-firing on my CDA-3M. Loadout is 4xML and 1xMG (don't ask...).

Fire groups as follows:

Group 1: All ML
Group 2: MG
Group 3: All ML, chain fire

Normally, if you hold down the chain-fire button, it'll keep firing the ML's at a certain fixed interval. However, you can also quickly tap the chain-fire button to more rapidly fire any number of the ML's. This is routine for me when I can only handle firing 2-3 in terms of heat, but have a target in my sights.

However, if I'm already holding down the MG button, and then try to quickly double/triple tap the chain fire button, only the first shot comes off. The second shot will only come after the fixed chain fire interval has passed.

It's a little annoying as in high-heat situations my preferred approach would be to continuously fire the MG and tap the ML's whenever's best.

I'm using a Steelseries Kana v2 mouse, however the problem remains if I try to fire using the number keys, so doesn't appear to be mouse-related.

Thanks,

I've found this issue on multiple 'Mechs. It's very annoying. If you have a weapon firing in progress, you can't quickly fire others. It's so weird.

Known issue.

Would be quicker for you to adjust your play style so that you don't attempt that any more, rather that wait for the devs to fix it.
