I was just in a PC match, and hopped in a blueberry's tank. Suddenly, we were surrounded by enemies with swarm launchers (yey!) so I shot one round, went to shoot again and nothing happened. I tried changing to my controller, but that didn't work, and then went back to my mouse but nothing helped. I ended up having to bail and run away, which only served to get me killed anyway.
It's not the first time it's happened. Any ideas how to fix it? |

Yes, it does the same thing sometimes happen to my rail tank. When ever I shoot, the rounds would just get stuck.
One occasion I would fire and it wouldn't show I fired. After 3-5 sec, it would fire non-stop and the only way to stop it is to press the fire button again.
The forges and the small rail also does almost the exact thing and when you're using those 3 weapons very often, it is really common. For the assault forge I would fire, but sometimes the rounds would have a delay of 3 seconds after pressing the fire button. You should try it CCP for a day. Just have a squad full of CCP players and use the assault forge gun and run around the map!

i was using a blaster. there was two tanks in the battle. my turret fired at the first tank no worries. reloaded to face the 2nd and then turret wouldn't fire a single round. i backed miles down the road and fired at the ground, it was working again. went back to the enemy tank and it would not fire. noticing my tanks will not fire at top corp tanks. mods don't work either. |

I couldn't move the tank since I was just on a gun, and had no way of telling the blueberry to move since they weren't in my squad. I've had more annoying problems, just wanted to know if it was a common issue. |

Yes, that is the current state of the game. It has been that way in various styles since Dust 514 was released in May/2013. There are many posts about it. The first version rail guns didn't work unless they were pointed straight ahead. Oddly enough it has gotten better since then but ... it is still here.
Sometimes it would appear that accessing a module can trigger the condition. We tankers have done all we can to solve the riddle but, as there is no more client work being done or scheduled to be done for Dust 514, there is little we can do.
I always test that my weapon is firing before leaving the deployment zone. Whenever I first get into my vehicle, or restock from the supply depot I fire a test round. If it doesn't fire then I try a variety of efforts to get back my lethality. Getting into another turret can help, or popping out and back in to the main turret. Sometimes turning on then off a module can reset it.
There are many infantry weapons that do this from time to time, so don't get a big head and think that CCP is doing it just because your awesome tanking abilities will scare off their customers. The game is free to play after all. 
And so it goes.

Nah, it's definitely because I'm awesome. |
