Some weeks ago I posted the same issue, but now I have more information.
A small recap: There is a bug that affects players after re-spawning. The effects of the bug may include one, some or all of these:
- Slow Movement speed, present in walk and run
- Reduced Weapon RPM
- Reduced Reload / Handling that bypasses any mod or exotic effect
- Nullification of any AE boost like mods, perks, fragments, aspects, etc.
Also:
- Effects may or may not accumulate with each other
- Effects appear after spawning or being resurrected. Dying again sometimes solves this issue, and other times it becomes permanent for the entire match
New stuff that was found and recorded in the link I provided from X:
- You can spawn with no special ammo
- Weapon RPM can also increase
Unfortunately, I still don't know what triggers it. In the first of the 2 videos I provide from X, I died with my super when it was about to end, I don't know if it has anything to do with it but hope it helps.

Edited by Nimune: 4/30/2025 9:19:53 AMI noticed this too just moment ago in Iron Banner Control. After respawning, I would occasionally move very slowly. Sprint seemed like it was disabled. Even walk speed seemed slower than normal. Not sure if it's a bug or someone hacking, saying this because a sus player had something about slow mode in their Steam description.
