Interaction should cancel reload

I think interaction prompt should take priority over reloading.

I just had an instance, where I emptied both guns into the predator after it had activated the self destruct. Instead of promting the defuse, the PC started reloading the shotgun (one shell at a time) and after I switched to main, it changed the clip before I could start defusing. Needles to say, I did not have enough time.

Edit: This is an even bigger problem on PS4, where the interact and reload button are the one and same.

I was going to make a post but I saw this one, I’m on PS4 and this is really one of my only major concerns about the game.

Every map and every condition you can think of this happens, I’ve had teammates die cause it wanted to reload shotguns before I could res them.

I normally run the LMG and the Auto shotty both of which take forever to reload and may it be reviving teammates, calling in reinforcements, defusing PredNuke, applying mud… it always wants to reload instead of interacting.

Change priority somehow or change the button please!

So interact and reload are behind the same button on PS4? I’m on PC, but of course the game reloads automatically when you’re empty.

Agreed, interactions should take priority over reload. Has gotten people killed, it’s even gotten me killed from trying to hurry and cover with mud, but I instead reloaded. That was enough time wasted for me to get killed.

I made an account just to help back this up and hopefully get it addressed. On PS4 this is a big issue. There are so many times reloading when I don’t want to has gotten me killed. Every action requires the same button as reload. This has gotten me killed when putting on mud, trying to revive teammates, calling in reinforcements, getting on the choppa, etc. I’m enjoying the game but please fix!
