Social screen on trigger pull

Has anyone else had the social screen to invite players take over the trigger during game play? I was playing last night and went to shoot and the invite screen came across .. I let go of the trigger and it went away. tried shooting again and it popped back up over and over. I had to leave the game to get it to stop.

Seems like a bug where your game thinks it’s on the pause menu when it isn’t

A buddy of mine has the same issue (Trigger pulls up the R2 social screen).

Yep I’ve had that a few times (also had it in the Beta). I don’t think you can do much other than quit the match.

I have this exact same problem on xbox. The friends list is always at the bottom of my screen so if I ever hold RT it will pop up, and continue to pop up over and over no matter how many times I back out of it. This is extremely annoying as (obviously) it only pops up when I’m shooting someone!

Go to a different squad and it will fix it, you may have to try more than 1 squad.

Similar thing happens on the bleed-out screen.
You hold R2 to skip revive and the commrose comes up.
Seems like bad/ lazy programming to me.

Press start and play around a bit

I figured out how to fix it. Simply press start/pause then press B to resume playing. The social screen will disappear. Works even if you are dead. Otherwise you could go the entire match with the issue.

Press start then resume playing.

*Solution:

Anytime it happens hit the pause button and then return back to the game it should be fine now to shoot without the stupid screen showing up.

I get R2-L2 mixing up on the bleed out screen. Not a biggy but still annoying when you want to wait for that incoming medic and no matter what trigger i press the timer speeds along - no im not on fire

Press Options button twice (pause /unpause) and it goes away. I have this a couple times every day. It’s a bug.

Same here ps4 pro.

Most common bug for me

i am dying so often cause of this ! It happens every sessions more then 10 times, since November. It makes me tilting so hard! Dice please fix this issue!

Yep, I sometimes get this because I want to go check the scoreboard. Gotta press Option twice to get rid of it.

I still have this issue, but none of my friends. The strange thing is: when i play at the console of my buddy, i have this issue too, but he never - this is so weird :smiley:
If i am looking in the internet i am just founding two posts about it, so it seems not be a common problem. :#
I made a compilation of the bugs which i had the last few weeks. Have fun feeling my pain!

P.S. If anyone can help me would be so thankful <3

Pershing1894 as well as BaronVonGoon have already posted how to fix this. now one further remark that you didn’t seem to realise just yet. The assignments that are visible on the right side of the screen are a 100% secure indicator for when this bug will happen. if the assignments are displayed it will happen, if they aren’t it wont. so if you see the assignment displayed on the right side of the screen simply press options twice (aka open and close the menu). to me this happens regularly as well but i always fix it before it can have any impact on my game. as this normally appears right when spawning i have more than enough time to quickly fix it while the game is zooming in from the map overview to my first person view.
furtherly its not at all weird that this always happens to you but not to your friends even if you play on the console of one of these friends as its directly connected to a certain kind of input (which obviously depends on the player and not the console). it has something to do with using your options button, so for example if you open your scoreboard (by holding options) while you spawn or get revived.

It’s actually a social feature of BF V.

Dice is encouraging you to play more with your friends.
