Weapon switching!

The current situation for switching out weapons from your inventory is just BAD. In a quick mission you can clunk through locked in with whatever choices you started with even of you prefer something else at different points. The problem is with the nightfall strikes, the Raid, and even just longer missions and strikes on harder difficulties with a lot of modifiers. Switching between special weapons for elemental advantages or cqc vs ranged combat shouldn't be as difficult as it is and dangerous in certain missions considering you can't see and have to wait on the inventory to load, which takes forever during busy moments. On top of all that I still take an ammo penalty in PvE??? Are you kidding me? I can't go from sniper to fusion rifle or use my invective after some much needed sniping during the raid? Can't switch primaries easily either even if there isn't a penalty for that. There needs to be a quick and easy way to cycle through your inventory (maybe hold the down button to bring it up.. No need to sit during missions.. and hit triangle to cycle heavy, square for special, x for primary.. Something simple like that) and penalties need to go, at the very least in the upper level missions and nightfall/raid. Ammo is scarce as is in those situations and you can empty full clips into mini bosses and they shrug it off. Then modifiers like "juggler" mean you just run around with no ammo for a specific weapon type for a while and don't even THINK about switching.

  • Definitely agree that switching weapons can be a real pain in the butt. As far as the ammo penalty at least it's better than the beta when they took it all away from you. The one aspect I find very frustrating is the timer on the ammo. What I mean by this is the timer penalty for all ammo packs they should be individual.

    • I wholeheartedly agree with that.It's down right lame to use up the directional pad for emoticons when they could be used like normal games do for weapons assignment slots,also what the hells up with timers on the ammo?I can understand the heavy weapons ammo, sort of but timers on the primary too. I ran around the weekly strike mission with the Cabal set on heroic and Juggler all by myself to complete an Exotic bounty card and It plain sucked.Almost got smeared twice for switching weapons and using the damn lame ammo refill,primary mind you ,that's on a fracking timer. Stupid game mechanics If IMO...
