Bayonet charge / melee problem

Product: Battlefield 1
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug When bayonet charging, if you do not stab anyone and charge is over character changes weapon to knife instead of backing to a normal stance with primary weapon.
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By bayonet charging.
What happens when the bug occurs? Character equips the melee weapon at the end of the charge and tries to melee in front of him.
Please select your region Europe
In what game mode did the bug occur? Conquest
AMD or Nvidia Model Number 980ti
Enter RAM memory size in GB 16

Is this intended to be that way or it is a bug? i've been killed numerous situations due to this happening already and it is frustrating.

  • Hey, are you holding the melee button? I think if you let go once the charge starts you should keep your main weapon up when the charge finishes.

    Hello David thanks for the reply.

    I wasn't paying attention of the button, will report back after trying both button pressed and depressed. In any case if there could be a setting to ajdust it, it would be awesome.

    Tried last night and confirmed what David suggested, thanks for the explanation although i wish there were an option to prevent this from happening when key is pressed as well. 🙂

    Thanks for the confirmation and feedback. Im guity of it too, I hold the button when trying for a melee kill and find myself with a hatchet in hand. I'll then often die promptly as I'm gunned down before I can swap back.
