In games like Torchlight, Diablo, Elder Scrolls and other RPGs there are quick weapon switching abilities. Having two outfits of weapons would allow for a quicker fight.
Instead of hiding somewhere and fiddling in the inventory until you have the correct weapon equipped you could switch to the second/alternate weapon set and have it immediately in reach.
Sometimes I run out of ammo for a weapon or I want to switch to a more precise assault rifle and then I have to find a spot where I can struggle through the inventory in the hope this works without the need for an adrenaline shot.
You have two main weapon slots + one side arm weapon slot. What stops you equipping your assault rifle into one of the main slots beforehand?
If we would have only one main weapon slot without side arm weapon slot, then this feature might be useful but at current state with 3 weapon slots in your disposal, i don’t see any use for adding more.
Well my fighting style is usually stealth based, having the Älgstudsare at 1 and the Kpist or AI76 on 2. When I’m spotted, being ambushed or require a different approach during the fight I switch to the Kpist or AI76. But it happens that the ammunition of the weapon runs out or I need to switch to a more precise assault rifle (like from Kpist to AI76) I have only the sidearm or the Älgstudsare at my disposal.
This is exactly the moment when I need to find a spot to switch weapon without dying.
Well I didn’t time it but there are multiple steps to achieve the weapon switch in the inventory.
Press I > click twice on the weapon type icon (the first click in the inventory usually gets omitted for me) > select the weapon > press E > select the correct slot > exit the inventory > press 2.
I guess 3 to 5 seconds would seem a reasonable time.
As a programmer I’m used to have shortcuts for (almost) everything and have to do things in such a cumbersome way seems avoidable to me.
PRO TIP: Leave the weapon you use most often in slot 2 and interchangeable in 1. This way you only need to select a weapon and hit E twice, then ESC, and you’re done.
Those are really good tips. I just need to get my head around to remember having the weapons reversed. But a little bit exercise should do the trick. Thank you
What I really miss is the ability to change weapons quickly. Now you have to wait a very long time, you can have a cup of coffee while waiting
How to solve the problem: create a corresponding perk with 2-3 levels, or shorten the changing time without creating a new perk.
I also agree with the above ideas.
