Why are the servers soo bad

Many times I spam 2 to switch to my gun and servers are like nope and the animation keeps resetting back to my sword.

This is an acknowledged bug.

Weapon switch override on attack(?)

Issue Type (Required): Other Issue Description (Required): There seems to be some sort of bug where if you attack too quickly after switching weapon, it stops trying to switch weapon and just attempts to attack with the weapon already equipped. The input queing system has seemed sort of broken, or very latency-sensitive, to me for a long time. I can’t be sure as this is my speculation, but I suspect this might be related either to the fact that many of the things we do in game are actually perf…

There are mods that somewhat alleviate the problem. They’re called:
guarantee_weapon_swap
guarantee_special_action
guarantee_ability_activation

Experiences vary, but at least for me they have significantly reduced the issue. It doesn’t disappear entirely but I suppose if you are as strongly affected by this issue as I am you might also benefit a lot from these mods.
