Knife Attacks When Firing

I haven't checked other topics because I don't have time for it but just wanted to mention this bug. When I'm using the Support Class and trying to shoot an enemy soldier that is about 15 feet away, my gun blocks and immediately goes into a knifing attack. This means I'm dead because the enemy is literally 15 feet away and is still shooting at me. Hope you guys have a solution. 

When i come into close contact to an enemy, but not close enough to knife him, I hit fire button and the knife comes out instead, resulting in me getting shot and killed.  This is not unique to me as my clan mates have similar problem.  Any patch being worked on for this?

I am having the same issue and it is getting me killed a lot. It seems like it happens anytime a character is within 30 feet. I fire one shot and the knife pops out. I have 3 brand new controllers and it happens on all of them so its not the controller. It happens whether my thumb is on the the controller or not.

It is very frustrating to be firing a weapon, including shoulder fired rockets at choppers, and having my in game character slash his knife at the enemy. I then have to change back to my original weapon as he continues to swing his blade. Why is this happening?

Same deal here. Here it is post China Rising and a half dozen updates and this is still happening. I am playing on an xbox360 just had it happen three times in a row at close range. Just kills the game

I have the same issue with the knife. I thought my controller wasn't working properly. >>>go to shoot, pulls out knife

Another issue is when you pull the trigger and a couple bullets come out, then the game decides to reload the clip.

My brother has the same issue on his game as well. Both of these glitches get you killed unfortunately.

HA I thought I was hitting R3 when I was trying to shoot.. I guess I'm not a retard...
