(PSN)IrresistiBill Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Evening All, So when a player goes down, it says hold (..) to revive. However, as soon as you press it, you revive... even if I just want to reload my gun as I’m waiting for a teammate or trying to slither to a safe spot, I receive without actually “holding” the button. This feels like a bug but I don’t know. The instructions are “hold” not “press”. Maybe “hold” should be like a 3 second hold... DE please look into this. Just very frustrating as players are burning through unnecessary revives when they could easily be picked up by a teammate. It definitely creates a problem at higher levels and the raids if someone goes down and a tactical decision has to be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan336 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 This being the second thread I've seen where console players are complaining about this, so I can say that this probably needs to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in players accidentally quick reviving when they didn't want to or that it's effecting community's behavior about helping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldnacpeek Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 (edited) It has to be bugged, clearly saying "Hold" yet instantly killing you and using a Revive as soon as you unintentionally push the button.

DogManDan Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 just look in general forums before making a second topic of the same issue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read it, they're talking about how the screen says to "Hold" the button to revive, yet pushing it once instantly brings you back. This makes accidental presses punishing in more demanding missions. Edited September 23, 2017 by LazerSkink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except this is more of a bug report than anything else. The other thread is discussing if the mechanic is ruining teamplay, this one is saying that insta revive is not working the way it says.

It is not the issue you assumed it to be. He is addressing a (possible) bug where pressing the insta revive button instantly kills you and uses up a revive, instead of hold X button like how it works on PC.

DogManDan Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 all related to the same topic.... the insta-revive system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you're just taking anything that makes the insta-revive system look bad to justify one reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bugged this way on PC too though, at least from what I've experienced. 8 hours ago, DogManDan said: all related to the same topic.... the insta-revive system. So according to that line of logic, if a thread regarding one particular subject is made, it automatically belongs in any other thread talking about the same thing no matter what it's actually about. Again, the other thread is discussing opinions on why the insta revive is ruining the multiplayer experience. This one is describing a bug, which is objective. Even though both these threads are discussing generally the same topic, yet contain very different content, they're somehow supposed to be one. This is equal to saying that a thread talking about Exalted Blade being bugged because it no longer casts waves should be merged with another thread stating Exalted Blade is overpowered and needs a rework. Because they're talking about the "same topic", they should apparently be within the same thread. Honestly, it just seems to me you're trying to justify not reading or even remotely addressing the OP's initial post.

DeckChairVonBananaCamel Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 i assume the issue is that the player who is on the ground, when attempting to reload their weapon, triggers the quick-revive. and that this is caused by the fact that console players dont have separate "use" and "reload" buttons? so DE could address this by making it so you have to hold "jump" or something?

(PSN)RenovaKunumaru Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I've tried it in game. Perhaps your controller is broken? A single press won't activate revive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
