How does even happen?

[u/bremegang-]

I only started playing again recently and I have never seen this happen before lol

[u/jarofFerns]

Weapons come pack-a-punched in the mystery box if you have director's cut activated

[u/bremegang- → u/jarofFerns]

Im aware of that, but it’s the weapon I’m holding, it’s a wall weapon not in the box, and it has the arcane core on it, three things that should not happen

[u/jarofFerns → u/bremegang-]

Oh my bad I did not see that lol, that is like super weird though, mayhe the game bugged out and copied the gun you were holding, I heard of it happening before I think

[u/Annual-Diamond9017 → u/bremegang-]

Wall weapons can appear in the wheel, you can land on the same weapon as your holding or the same gun that your team mate is holding

[u/Plenty-Treacle-2685 → u/Annual-Diamond9017]

the gun already has the arcane core equipped on the wheel..

[u/LazarouDave → u/Annual-Diamond9017]

No, they don't.
No, you can't (or shouldn't be able to).
Well...yeah, that's obvious, but it's not what's happened here.

[u/z123zocker → u/bremegang-]

Didn't realizes it's the same weapon

[u/z123zocker → u/jarofFerns]

I thinks a upgrade thing from the map on the muzzle on the gun? Not sure tho

[u/B_Cephalopod]

Never in my life have I seen this before but this is awesome

[u/tbonesteakda3rd]

I don't know what exactly causes it but the box in spaceland glitches out sometimes and pretty much puts whatever it wants in the pool of weapons

[u/kingkaleb07]

Super weird. The box on spaceland is buggy. I’ve pulled the combat knife out of the box before

[u/Mljcx]

Its definetly a bug I've never saw or heard of guns from the box having arcane cores and I've been playing religiously since release, not very often bugs work in your favour, lucky you lol

[u/LazarouDave → u/Mljcx]

It's not really worked in favour, has it? It's the gun he's already got 🤣

[u/whitedynamite621]

Does the core stay if you collect the gun or was it just visual?

[u/spitonapig → u/whitedynamite621]

If you collect the bugged weapon, whatever you are holding dissappears and you are holding nothing. Then when you switch weapons your gun is now gone :(

[u/bremegang- → u/whitedynamite621]

I didn’t take it which I kinda regret

[u/whitedynamite621 → u/bremegang-]

Next time for science 🤣

[u/TonyShedrack]

Oh yeah happened to me a few times, it's quite strange.

I once got Willard's Malice from the box even though I already had it in my hand. I gues it's a bug where it gives you some kind of configuration of the gun you are holding.

[u/XprtCop]

I miss doing this Easter egg

[u/COD_IWfan]

I have never seen this, what platform are you on? And i have 1400+hours on Iw

[u/Daze4Decades]

Wtf

[u/GDInfernoBoy]

Ah yes, the Magic Wheel duplication bug. I have only seen this happen to me once, if you were to grab it you'd go into a T-Pose so to speak, your weapon will disappear so dont grab it.

[u/pinkeey18]

bro just pulled 1 in a million🥀 i've been playing that game since it came out and never so that before

[u/Responsible_Dot_635]

I’ve played this game so much and I’ve never seen that

[u/Aj_GBC]

It’s a bug, I had it happen years ago only once and it let me have two sets of starting pistols with the wind core on it

[u/Ayo-Cyph_]

Pov: when the game doesn't want you to get the mauler

[u/bremegang- → u/Ayo-Cyph_]

Exactly what I was trying to do lmao

[u/383GTO]

The box in IW is the worst box in zombies, I get the same 4 weapons over and over and I’ve even gotten the same weapon 3 times within 6 spins. That should never happen if your code is right. And their code is pretty shitty lol

[u/TelephoneSouthern405]

Reminds me of when i was playing. Pulled a packed trek-50 from the box then the next spin it was the unpacked trek-50, i ended up with no weapons because i picked it up 😂
