    They could make it the shoulder buttons.

    Or up and down on the D-Pad.

    There’s plenty of options.

    I accidentally switched to other characters.
    I always main Feng and found myself in a match playing as Ace with crappy perks.

    Yeah, those buttons get pushed all the time from a finger twitch or just by setting the controller down. The shoulder buttons would be better for this function.

    It would also be nice to get rid of the sound notification for switching characters. I've had players in my lobbies rapidly cycle through survivors just to be obnoxious to the point where I have left/dumped lobbies for it.

    Alternatively, the devs could rebind the character switch to L1/LB, R1/RB, instead of the triggers.

    TBH this sounds like your problem. May don't slam your controller down.

    I have said this before, why use R2 & L2? They are so idiotically unlogical and way too sensitive. L1 and R1 have no purpose so why not those. It's so annoying to accidentally switch characters. Also, even when they change it to R1 and L1, i still wouldn't use it. How is this even remotely better than immediately clicking on the character you want to play? It is beyond me.

    I’m more amazed how the same people who claim to wait an hour for a lobby doesn’t have time to switch there selection back!

    I gently put down my controller and i still switch characters with out meaning to. Sometimes the triggers are a bit to sensitive on some controllers

    LMAO Such a simple issue of being careful to not press L2R2, so someone wants the Dev's to go on and stop the simple act of them doing it due to their negligence. Hpw about you be more careful?

    Then your controller is busted. I play on Xbox with an elite, know how many times I had to take it for a replacement? 6 times. SIX, in 3 years. That's an average lifespan of 6 months.

    I've opened many controllers before. They all use similar parts believe it or not, and those parts are cheaply made.

    Lol people will argue about literally ######### anything. I wish this forum enforced an age requirement. Nobody needs to "slam" their controller down for this to happen. If you put it down on an uneven surface (ie, your lap, leg, bed, couch, etc) it can very easily happen. It would be a simple fix for the devs to switch it to two other buttons.

    I wholeheartedly agree that they should give you an option to disable it. I would do so in a heartbeat.

    My controller must not be as sensitive because its never happened to me.

    I don't slam it, it's quite easy to trigger those buttons accidentally.

    Maybe some of you just need to pay bloody attention !

  • TAG TAG
    Is there a reason why it is not L1/R1 instead?

    Just always make sure you have good perks on all of your available characters that way you won't be screwed. I hate it too. It's annoying.

    Yeah i did that, the thing is that the others were leveled up only for the teachables and most of the perks are tier 1 and 2. I spend most of the bloodpoints on killers.
