Re: Is there a way to turn off Auto Punch?

The issue is not clenching; people are being obstinate and feel that something they have not experienced is not a thing. The issue is trying to attack with no ammo. If you don’t have a gun and pull the trigger you melee. If your gun is empty and you pull the trigger, while in close proximity to a bad, you melee. This needs to be turned off. There is a button for melee attacks, leave it at that. My big issue comes from the peacekeeper; it only has one bullet chambered at a time and is a close proximity weapon: if you are right next to someone and pull the trigger a second time, before the next round has been chambered, you will melee. Please EA, put in an option to turn this off. Let the melee button be the only way you can throw a punch.

@TeranceBagswell ... uhh if a weapon is out of ammo and you press the firing button (whatever that may be on your system) than you just hear the gun clicking.

You don't punch. You only punch if you have your weapons holstered or no weapon.

As for the rest of you, what controller are you using? DS4? I don't have this issue on a xbox controller but I remember getting it using those tiny PS controllers.

That answers my question to the t. I use the peace keeper and plenty of times it came to 1v3 clutch and close to the last guy and on reload he auto punches and I die. It's really annoying. I know what button melee is and I know how to use it, and when, it's literally killing me.
