What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? CyanPlastic
Please provide your squad mates' gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name if possible.
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)?
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)?
Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. Any area on a map
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Pinging an item/location
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? I don't know
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? Not sure, started for me in Season 5
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? After pinging an item for my teammates, my legend will also say an enemy is nearby, even though I didn't mean to.
What should be happening instead? My legend should only be pinging an item or location and not saying an enemy is near.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Quickly double tap the ping key/button on an item/location

It seems one of my mouse buttons is doing double inputs unintentionally whenever I press it sometimes, which leads to me saying an enemy is nearby when I'm just trying to ping an item for a teammate. I think there should be an option in the options menu to disable this feature, as I always call out enemies with a separate key anyway.
