*If this glitch is done on a Spartan Laser, the laser will charge up but stay at full charge and not fire.
*This glitch is most noticeable online as when playing offline, the character will not fire continuously but rather only one shot when leaving the pause menu.
*This glitch is particularly annoying when playing Matchmaking games as it makes you stand out. Particularly if you accidentally disconnect your controller, as by the time it is reconnected, you may be out of ammo.
