This post is a petition to hotkey a heavy ammo synth. A button that is unused is a right stick click. I'm proposing that a 3 second hold on the right stick will give you a heavy ammo synth if available. If unavailable it will pop up bottom right with time remaining. This keeps guardians in the fight while being able to access heavy ammo. Another perk could be allowing us to select primary/special/heavy synth in the settings menu to be used when press and holding the right stick.
Sign up guardians if you like my idea and let's get Deej to comment. Best of luck to all guardians. Thanks.
ANOTHER EDIT: Having a popup when low on ammo that says use ammo synth?
EDIT: The D-pad is a favorite as the hotkey.
EDIT: Also talking about implementing a weapon wheel or hotkey to swap weapons quickly.
EDIT: Being able to assign any consumable to the d-pad.
EDIT: Over 500 replies! Thanks so much everyone! Let's keep bumping so they see this! So many great ideas below! Keep them coming!

I definitely think you should be able to change the dpad to different synths if you want to use the dpad for ease. Pressing start and waiting 5 mins for the menu to load up takes the p I s s

Signed, I use my right thumb stick as melee.

I'd much rather the d pad was used for something better than dancing and pointing!!
-
I use the right stick click for melee-ing tho

Or you know just don't rely on heavy synths to win

R stick is my melee, so no, how about holding down RB and then d-pad is 4 hot keys

Not sure why people haven't made more noise about this - wanting a hotkey system. Get rid of the ridiculous and useless point, wave, sit, and dance and put something useful there.

Edited by Kovathos: 5/25/2015 5:28:35 PMI see no reason why we can't at least rebind the directional pad to use ammo synths since all those do is social animations. If the issue is bungie wanted you to find some cover before using a synth all they have to do is give a delay before it's used where you have to sit and wait like your deploying your ghost. At least then you can see what's going on. It would also be very nice if we could have a weapon wheel to switch between guns, again if the issue is they want you to find cover, just add a delay before the weapon switches. Or heck, have us take out our ghost like we're calling a sparrow or looking for a patrol, and give us new control options in there to switch weapons or use ammo synths or glimmer items. It's just little things like this that make you wonder if people at bungie really have any experience or any idea what they want/do

I agree. Dancing and waving in the tower is fine, a hot key for ammo during combat would be amazing.

Definitely a solid ideA. I always thought that having 2 load outs available would be great to. The hot button switch to another load out would be quick and easy

Agreed. Stupid i have to wait for a loading screen to use a synthesis they obviouzly gave me to use. Why is there a cooldown for it? If i open my menu right after i use one, i might make it to my inventory before the cooldown is up, but probably after.
