Punching while shooting

Happen a lot to me before, since during fight, u tend to be more intense with ur thumb and accidently pressing down harder than ussual which trigger Meele action.

To avoid it:

1. Setting -> Controller -> Use CUSTOM button layout (last one at the bottom)

2. Change the meele option from pressing right thumb stick to something else that you barely use.

@asukojo This is a game issue, it happens to me too. It’s not me hitting the right stick. Not sure why nobody is taking this seriously since it’s a real issue.

  I think I have figured this out. I noticed if I pull the trigger when my gun is away, I throw a punch. When I am in the heat of battle and trying to reload and shoot, I throw a punch instead. I think the game is mixed up in the reload phase and thinks you have your gun away. Hence the punch.

    @aisthebestletter Oh yeah, if you dont have bullets in the gun I am fairly sure it punches. Makes sense as you are pressing an attack button.

  Yes this is! It happens to me on my PS4 with my thumb completely not touching anything. I will have to try the scenarios said below and see if one of those might be it... Its already tough enough learning how to play this game only 2.5 months in from a 12/13 year long break from video games after I sold my ps3, as this game is not a beginner friendly game but really just playing this game on a PS4 means I'm already at a disadvantage. I've have whole magazines go right through legends and not register, people disappear right off the screen, a legend shooting me dead after head already turned the corner and the game caught up and much more. I love this game but some nights I really hate it.
