Just something small and not too huge to add but,
I wish for OOO to add a button that would allow you to switch to the last weapon you have on hand.
As a gunner, I think its a pain to have to press different button if I'm gun swapping with 3 or 4 weapons. Specially if one of them is a back-up sword. Adding this would allow oneself to switch back and forth a lot more easily.
To sum up: Add a keystroke that allow oneself to switch to his last weapon he had on previously.
@Benightz
That still doesn't solve my problem. I use the space bar to switch to weapon but it is slower to do it if I were to carry 3 different weapon and try to gun-swap while in pressured situation. I rather switch to a weapon I need in a single keystroke rather than tap space-bar twice or even 3 if I were to carry 4 weapon.
Have you ever seen the options?
Do you know there's a hot key to switch weapons if you key bind the controls?
i use 1-2-3-4 to switch weapons (and i have only 3)
z-x-c-v to use quick slots
w-a-s-d to move
and i can move and change weapons at same time
try change your weapon hotkeys
because you already can take the right weapon just pressing one button
Uses WSAD to move and has Q to previous weapon and E as next weapon
FSC loadout Glacius, Shiv, blitz, polaris
Whenever I lay down a shiv I switch back to Glacius with Q then charge...
It's already in the game
Your not understanding what I mean. I'm talking about switching back and forth one weapon with a single key, even though you have 3 or more weapon equiped.
Example: have a prismatech and a shadowtech equipped as weapon 1 and 2 respectively. But he also have a leviathan equipped in slot 3. If he want to gun switch he would have to press 2 different key. Now my idea is that if he were to use weapon one then switch to 2, he would be able to have a single key that could switch back and forth between the previous weapon he was using and the one he had on-hand when he press this key, not back to the previous weapon in the list equipped.
i understand you point on my first post, but...
we already have the wheel of the mouse:
turn up to pick one weapon, turn down to get another (in 2-3 weapons situation, work good)
this keystroke only will work if we have more than 3 weapons...
... and the game is capped at 4
2° time, Cloud-Shot:
is more easily you change your button shortcuts than the game put the button who only will work that when the player has 4 weapons
and moreover, have lazy to remember which position let each weapon
that type of keystroke work better on FPS... but here, you can anticipate what kind of weapon you will need at the moment because of the overhead view
i switch a lot on Built to Destroy mission (leviathan against gremlins, Voltedge against construct, pulsar as "switch trigger" or keep away)
my case:
1- Leviathan/Voltedge (main sword slot)
2- Voltedge/Dark retribution (situational weapon)
3- Gigawatt pulsar/Blitz (situational Gun)
4- don't have yet
z- health pill/ any useful vial
x- remedy pill/ any useful vial
c- any vial
v- any... -sigh
left mouse button: action/attack
right mouse button: guard
mouse: Aim (my default, i leave my auto-target disabled)
w.a.s.d: north.south.west.east
you can use this configuration or change for one who suit better on you
seerusly, you can play without that button
I Guess what he means its:
you have: 1st: leviathan, 2nd: blitz 3rd:nova driver 4th: gran faust. he is in a pressure situation where he need the leviathan but he is on the nova driver slot. so he have to hit previous weapon 2 times to get leviathan. SOMETIMES could be the lag, could be the server side lag, could be PC freezes, whatever reason the game dont leave you at leviathan slot and jump the slot to Gran faust even if you hit 2 times the previous weapon button but whatever reason listed before could jump the leviathan and jump to other weapon. so in that case in a pressure situation would be fatal.
So he only want a Key where if you used the leviathan then swicht to novadriver, press such key and would jump to the previous used weapon: this case leviathan.
there would be situation where you need to used the second weapon with the fourth weapon, even if you have set your weapons in order to use as Combo (example 1: Wild hunting blade, 2: Gran Faust, 3: Glacius, 4: graviton/electron Vortex, set like this i can set a Graviton/electron vortex first then previous weapon for glacius or next weapon for Wild hunting blade, but if i want to use it with Gran faust i have to swicht 2 times to get gran faust and whatever reason, lag or freeze sometimes the game jumps the faust and set on another weapon. so no matter how you order your weapons you cant prevent this).
Some games like Hexen II only its capped a 4th weapons too and some Hexen II ports allow the "swicht previous used weapon" which come handy sometimes.
i dont see how this could be wrong, but for some players maybe this can be handy.
just saying.
@Sweet-Hope
This is pretty much what I'm saying.
Now to wait and see if OOO will even read the suggestions. . .
Put the weapons in the most needed order to the least needed
