ASIA and US Points Reloaded COOP and VS: buy menu bug (Important!)

This is for the attention of admins, especially HC who needs to know about this.

NOTE: from speaking with Lunatic 【 ღ Lα 】 in steam chat. Erik is working on this bug. I decided to post this on the forums since no one else has done it yet.

Since this bug was caused by the update of HI as far as I know from speaking to people on steam. its been affecting everyone. The screenshots are proof of what i've seen of this bug. This bug is affecting both COOP and VS on both US and ASIA.

No. of players on at the time of reporting this...
16/16 on ASIA Points Reloaded COOP
13/16 on US Points Reloaded VS

Screenshots are down below! (links) (Screenshots are from my prespective) (COOP)

What is happening: I came onto Dark Carnival after queing to rejoin, i then looked at the buy menu several times while i was doing the campaigns from chapter 3 to chapter 5. what i noticed was that the buy menu had seemed to not be working. I found out that you couldnt buy most of the weapons from the weapons section. Only the Hunting Rifle in the sniper section and the Auto Shotgun in the shotgun section were the only weapons available to buy at the time this bug occurred. What i also noticed was that when i pressed the buttons in the weapons section, it just didnt work going into the sections and seeing what was available. When i next tried the melee sections i found out that nothing was affected by the buy bug. this can be seen from the screenshots which exactly tell you so. Yet when i look at the throwables, it can only be seen that the molotov is available from the three throwables available to purchase (This is confirmed as well with ﾐThor Skywalker彡 from steam chatting with him). With the upgradeables it can be seen that only the ammunitions is available to buy from the 3 upgrades available. The health items when checked were not affected by the buy menu bug. When i checked the last section of the miscellaneous, nothing seemed to be affected by the buy menu bug. When i went onto the VS server. On the infected side, the only thing available was the pipebomb, nothing else was on the infected buy menu.

Here is the steam chat with several people about the bug...
