Battlefield 2042: How To Stop The Beta Auto-Firing Bug There is another bug that causes the Beta to freeze or crash when a controller or mouse and keyboard USB is unplugged while the game is active, so this should only be done outside the game. To fix the Battlefield 2042 auto-firing gun bug, players should start by unplugging their controller or mouse and keyboard before loading the game.

The Battlefield 2042 Settings have three different key bindings active by default for the "Fire" action, namely left-click on a mouse, Right CTRL on a keyboard, and the Right Trigger/R2 button on a controller.

The auto-firing gun bug isn't limited to mouse and keyboard users, as it affects controller inputs as well.

This means that, because the fire action is always active, players are prevented from doing a number of other actions, like reloading, sprinting, and properly using any vehicle during a match of the 128-player Conquest mode. The auto-firing gun bug treats any weapon or equipment piece like the key bind is being continuously held down. The Battlefield 2042Beta is live, but an auto-firing gun bug is preventing some players from being able to play the game once they're in a match.
