Desperate need to unmap R3, new patch has removed the only viable option

Hi Apex/Everyone,

TL/DR - the new patch removed the ability to avoid accidental R3 button presses by adding a quip wheel to the previously 'dead' extra character action button. We folk who press to hard on R3 in a firefight desperately need a way to unmap R3.

I am a big lover of the game and have spent easily 100-200 dollars on skins and batttle passes.

I am one of those people who always push too hard on the R3 button in a firefight, so it's super essential for me to be able to unmap the R3 button or assign it a function that does not impact combat. Up until the recent patch the only way to do this was to map it to the extra character action button. It was the only button in the game that is essentially 'dead' during combat. Other options are to map to crouch or melee, but in a fire fight accidentially doing either of these causes big problems as well.

I am super upset about the new patch that added the quip wheel by holding down the character extra action button. Now when I'm in a firefight and press a bit too hard the quip wheel pops up and I lose the firefight every time.

Please please please give us R3 'stress pressers' a way to unmap R3 completely, or at least roll back this new quip wheel button and let us go back to have a viable way to avoid this problem.

Thanks, big fan here, and finding the game almost unplayable now. I know it's on me but you had a viable way around it for so long, and now nothing.

  • I found a workaround (by far not perfect): activate autorun and put run to R3. Can't really use variable scopes though...
