Crouching after melee

this happens often enough that when I melee someone my spartan crouches. At first I thought maybe I had a mapped button that was being accidentally pressed. After giving it 100% of my attention for a few games this was not the case.

Can anyone provide feedback as to why I am randomly crouching when I am meleeing?

how are you buttons mapped?

I switch back to default to test things. So RB is melee and Right stick is crouch.

Could you possibly be clenching down when u hot the bumper with ur thumb? I’ve never had this issue so. summing it’s on your end. Do you have another controller to test with?

I’ve actually noticed this too so you aren’t the only one. I’ve always used default and figured it was me accidentally clicking the stick or something. I am not too bothered, it sometimes works out in my advantage

I use bumper jumper… I find that when the my Adrenalin is pumping I accidentally push the thumb stick down in a heated battle.

It doesn’t happen for me. I don’t know what’s up.

I feel like that’d be kinda beneficial

Well, it’s a while since I played now.

However, from what I remember, whenever I got a melee kill, my spartan would crouch.
This didn’t happen if it wasn’t a kill, I think.

Now I do always have Crouch Toggle on, and I tested with it off, while I didn’t end up crouching, I did do the crouch motion.

My nephew and his girlfriend have the same “issues”.

All of us using the default controller layouts.

Not a problem with me, maybe you are hitting the button by mistake when reaching for the buttons, how big are your hands?

Thats a bit personal

Used to happen to me as well. When you press melee in default controls, it auto-crouches. Toggling crouch so that you have to hold it in to keep crouching helps, and switching to Button Layouts does too.

You know what they say about big hands…the bigger the hands the larger the…

controller!

EDIT: Whoops, accidental re-post

I use recon controls and never had this problem

It is reflex pushing down on the stick. Used to happen to me when using regular controller—not anymore with my Elite controller. Now I tend to accidentally hit my lower paddle for reload. Ticks me off since I lose melees that way!
