I had this idea while reading another post about the D-Pad functionality.
What I would like to see, is a system that alters the D-Pad functions within Nav Mode. When you take out your Ghost there should be a D-Pad illustration in the corner with "Summon Vehicle" and "Go to Orbit". Around the D-Pad would be "Primary Synth", "Special Synth", and "Heavy Synth". Holding LB (or L1 for PS?) in Nav Mode changes the D-Pad to show "Ether Seeds", "Black Wax Idol", etc.
Right now consumables are a pain to use. You need to block the entire screen, sometimes in a big fight, just to use a quick ammo synthesis. I think this would be a much smoother way to interact with consumables.
EDIT: Shouldn't be customizable, weapons and armor have no business here. Inventory screen for gear is working as intended IMO. Otherwise you would end up with people who have 3 sniper rifles with different damage types, and special ammo synth bound. Consumables need love.
EDIT: Likes are nice and welcome (makes me feel warm and fuzzy), but comments keep this topic on the front page where more people will see it (amid all the nerf talk).

seems legit

Or you could wire weapons up to it. I could switch quickly between my hand cannon and my pulse rifle.

Good ideas, I really hope bungie does this..

Edited by MrLeprechaun: 10/17/2014 6:46:28 PMPersonally I'd prefer a weapon wheel vs material. I switch between shotgun and sniper a lot (and different elements depending on the enemy)and waiting for the menu screen to load and such takes too much time and is poorly thought out imo...
-
Agree but would have to make it simpler to set up
-
Absolutely! I was thinking along the lines of a weapon/consumables wheel like Oblivions.
-
Awesome idea! Every player would enjoyed the game even more with better/easier access to ammo and glimmer boost items! They are also part of the strategy!! I hate it that the inventory screen took forever to load during the battle :(
-
Agreed! Some major streamlining needs to take place. To include these additions would be fantastic

Edited by Atraira: 10/14/2014 4:46:12 PMNot only that, but the inventory screen itself can sometimes take upwards of 20 seconds to load. (360 player) I don't think I need to explain how deadly that can be.

Bump Bump. Yeah, quick ammo synth (and other consumables) needs to be a thing. Come on meow DeeJ, help the Devs focus on fixing and adding important features, not tweaking item/weapon stats.
-
Huge bump
-
Hell yea. Now this is a forum worth reading. Awesome idea. HEY BUNGIE!!! LISTEN TO THIS GUY!!!
-
Bump bump bump it up
-
Bump! I hate having to take so long to use the synth ammo during a fight!
-
Why arnt there basic stuff like this already in the game.
-
Bump. DeeJ, this should be sent along to Devs if something like this isn't already in the works! Make consumables more accessible please!
-
Can we get a sticky thread for all the moaning about today's hotfix? All the noise is making it difficult for legitimate suggestions to improve the game to get noticed. This suggestion is gold. I very much doubt anyone would not appreciate this feature.
-
Dude. Hard on. Thank you.
-
Bump. This would be very convenient.
-
Bump for the love of jebus!
