Updated weapon selection to hide faster after using scroll wheel
I think it’s waaaaay to fast now what was the value before? For sure it was too long but now it’s definately too fast. I know I’m not the only one to complain about it.
Examples of issues encountered by my friends and me:
- teamkilling peoples trying to give them a field dressing in the middle of a firefight more than five times already
-shot a « miss clicked » fire trying to switch to LAT, getting a grenade or patching yourself behind ennemy lines resulting in blowing off the cover and getting killed.
Sure it was way too long before and when you were looking for a medic kit or any other valuable kits in a pile of kits and bodies was a tesious task. But now it’s way too fast maybe add one more second to it.

Bf2 default is 2 seconds, current is 0.5 seconds. If we add 1 second it will be way too long again.

Protip: Hold down tab while cycling kits.Iguanadjy wrote: Sure it was way too long before and when you were looking for a medic kit or any other valuable kits in a pile of kits and bodies was a tesious task. But now it’s way too fast maybe add one more second to it.

I know the holding tab but never felt the need to do it before I guess it’s just a matter of habit after all those years but damn those mishaps happened to many times already since the last patch maybe 1 sec is better.Mats391 wrote:Bf2 default is 2 seconds, current is 0.5 seconds.

We will add option to change it in the launcher and set default to 1.0 seconds.

You guys actually scroll? Just press 1-8 that should be much quicker than having to scroll through some tab.

Just press the number keys on the key board. No misfires.

If simple pressing button is better then just get rid off scroll option... Because you know... It's not like everyone have same preference like you.
