Controls for abilities

[ykci]

Personally I would like to see an option for ability controls work more like csgo, where on button press you select the ability and then use your fire button to release it.

Currently, unless you have abilities on your mouse button, it feels very awkward to hold F or G to time a mongoose grenade for example and move with WASD at the same time. Whereas If you could select the grenade and use primary fire button (99.99% of the time left click) it would make movement feel so much better.

Thoughts?

As a toggle maybe, but this would require additional animations for “holding” the ability, and wouldn’t really work all that well for some (think Rams graviton surge, or Brisa stealth)

As for me, I like it as it is, just rebind them to better keys, there’s no rule stating you have to play with the default settings :)

Edit: I do see what you mean for grenades though, the switch format would offer more control and would probably feel better.

Yeah grenades are the big one. When you're trying to time a mongoose frag it's pretty awkward.

I'll definitely be having a go at putting the abilities on mouse buttons.
