Attack keybind should draw weapon

★★★ Expert

So....

 

When you just popped a battery and medkit, and your weapons are holstered your character actually melee attacks when you hit attack/shoot button, or trigger if you're on console.

 

Dying because someone suddenly showed up when you just used a battery and you press shoot reflexively making you punch the air in front of you really, REALLY sucks.

 

Dying this way is a regular occurrence and not a one-off every now and then.

 

Can we please get a setting feature to automatically draw weapon pressing shoot/attack when your weapons are holstered.

 

Especially considering the fact we have a dedicated melee button/keybind.

 

I for one am getting pretty fed up with punching air while someone else gets a free kill on me.

@asukojo yeah, but running into a building with your gun holstered and healing with your gun holstered are totally different. Either way though, pressing attack to draw your weapon = people content

I agree. m1 should only fire weapons. They should just remove melee from m1 altogether and keep it to its dedicated keybind.

Automatic holstering of the weapon should not exist after a heal or whenever it happens.

This change would also make the behavior consistent with ziplines, where firing *does* cause a holstered weapon to be drawn.

Agree with this, "automatically draw weapon pressing shoot/attack when your weapons are holstered."

so many times I died to this unnecessary control mechanic. and also Auto reload.

Does EA and respon actually read these and fix issues or is it just a compliment closet to make it feel like we're being heard?
