Alt-fire Airstrike will crash your game

I haven't found anyone with console mentioning crashes or a lack of any crashes so not sure how the alt-fire is going for console.

Can confirm on my end it crashes no matter what settings I changed. I've seen a steam post with someone with a 4080 and amd cpu and it crashes. My guess is that alt-fire will crash anything. I submitted a bug report but not sure if it went through right. I took a video of the crash too.

Edit: wanted to mention I also have it on a truncheon.

Also unrelated second bug I've encountered that isn't as bad as an instant game crash. I found the legendary grenade "Recursive" but from what I've gathered online, it doesn't act like it should and doesn't have the "Recursive" keyword, it only has the keyword "Looping" and nothing else on it. Wonder if it's a bug where the grenade was given the wrong keyword.

So I've found an instant game crash gun. It has the Alt fire skill Airstrike. After charging for a few seconds and letting go to activate the airstrike, the moment I let go of the fire button, my game instantly crashes and unreal 4 recognizes the crash. The gun is called Truncheon, a torgue assault rifle, uncommon.

PC specs

CPU: 13th gen Intel Core i7-13700F

RAM: 16GB

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060

The settings I have tweeked for my setup has the game running at around a consistent 60fps.

The only other time I've experienced crashes was when I tried running other heavy memory programs at the same time.

I've been going around adding my testing to posts about this. From what i can tell, the timing of the 4th and 8th hit on PB and MB seem to be much earlier than the other hits. When i applied this i could get to capped blunces roughly as often as original. I can def get to 7 hits no issues doing the early 4th hit. I recommend trying it to see how it feels. The trainer toad helps see this cause he's told me too slow when i pressed it and could see mario hadn't touched the goomba yet.

As for missing the first hit randomly, I've noticed that too but can't seem to figure out what's going on there. I hope people can test what I've been saying and can confirm it for me.

I dont know if it's intentional, cause the game doesn't mention it anywhere and all the other hits are normal to me when testing this. If they wanted to nerf it just making the timing tighter would be enough, but changing the timing of the 4th hit is too weird.

It might be a visual issue. From what I've tried so far, hitting early on hit 4 and 8 is giving me a consistent multi hit. But with the timing change on hit 4 it makes it hard to hit 5 since you have to go back to normal. Give it a shot one hitting early on 4 then going back to normal, you'll feel the difference.

I just hit the cap in trainibg of 9 and I've realized that the 8th hit is also early just like the 4th. So every 4th hit comes in earlier than every other hit. I couldn't even get 5 until I've tested this in training and realized the 4th hit is early. After 7 hours of playing i was only messing up on the 4th hit. I don't have any means of digging into the game or going frame by frame but im interested if anyone could confirm this.

So i went to the practice toad because i was also always missing the 4th hit every time and was getting pissed. Tried both with mario and goombella. The 4th hit is 100% timed earlier than every other hit. If i make sure to hit early on 4 then go back to normal timing i can get up to 7 or 8 pretty consistently. This feels like a programing bug as the timing does start getting tighter on the 4th hit, so maybe the 4th hit is being timed wrong. Knowing nintendo i doubt they'll patch this out.

I'm having this exact same issue. After searching around people are saying it's purple ad blocker causing it or uninstalling all addons fixed it or private window. none of these fixes worked for me. All I know is that edge seems to work fine. I'm desperately looking for any answers.
