Console Players are unable to use Sprint + Class Ability
[i]Hi[/i] Bungie,
I recently noticed that on the PC version of Destiny 2 is possible, for Titans and Warlocks, to use their Class Ability while sprinting, and the result is an [url=https://i.imgur.com/gzqtfO1.gifv]extremely cool animation[/url] of them putting their Barricade / Rift while sliding.
[b]THE PROBLEM[/b]
Well, this is quite impossible to do on [i]Playstation [/i] and [i]Xbox[/i] (to be honest I found a way, but it's extremely inconsistent). I tried it many times, but I assume that because on Console we have the Crouch and Class Ability commands mapped on the same button (Short Press for Crouch, Long Press for Barricade / Rift), every time I Long Press that button while sprinting to use my Class Ability I simply slide instead, and the Cast animation starts only when I stop sliding, resulting in a regular Barricade / Rift Cast.
I know it may sound silly, but that Sprint-Cast is really nice to see, it can be very useful, and it maintains the momentum of the action. I would love to be able to do that also on Console.
[b]MY ADVICE[/b]
I'm not a developer, but the least I can do now is trying to help saying how I would fix it:
[i]- Easy way:[/i] give Console Players the opportunity to remap the Class Ability command to let the game know when we want to Sprint-Cast our Barricade / Rift instead of simply sliding.
[i]- Best Way (in my opinion):[/i] let the Sprint-Cast be activated also when sliding (after all the animation is really similar to a slide), or at least for the first moments, just to trigger the Long Press command (this way you would also prevent it from extending the slide distance).
Please Bungie, i know it may not sound as a priority, but the Class Ability is something that every single Guardian use hundreds of times every day, and this would be an extremely cool improvement in our Gaming Experience.
[i]Thank you[/i] Bungie,
[i]a Fellow Guardian[/i]

I just use use one of the alternative control configs and it swaps the crouch button with clicking the right stick. So you can slide and aim at the same time. Maybe I'm not reading the problem you're having correctly. But if I am that should work

Used to play d2 on xbox, just slide into it, its better than just dropping it, i do it on pc
-
I play tactical whatever that’s called. Stick to slide and crouch on the Xbox . Works really well actually. A bit iffy with the solar warlock as when jumping you get that annoying drop animation. Apart from that....... it’s good.

2 RepliesI use a controller on PC, breh. You can slide to barricade. Just tap then hold.

1 ReplyIf you land from a jump sprint and do it you are able to.

12 RepliesEdited by PilksUK: 8/20/2018 1:47:18 PMIts a small thing that is due to controller limitations... you will just have to deal with it or beg Bungie to allow keyboard and mouse support for the consoles we have both on PC... controllers user get aimbot to help them out and keyboard users dont, So I do not see a reason this cant be the same on console.

2 RepliesI've switched my sprint and 'back' buttons on my PS4 and moved to 'Puppeteer' controller mode. Problem has been solved for me for almost a year.

7 RepliesIt’s a super small thing, but it would definitely come in clutch in certain situations. I’m all for it

1 ReplyIt's difficult with you guys being on console and remapping buttons is more of a PC thing. Not to be that guy but if you want PC features you should head over to the PC version as theres only so many buttons and actions a controller can support

1 ReplyEdited by FatalFantasy88: 8/20/2018 9:22:16 PMWhat? You are just figuring this out? I don’t know about you, but I’m on console and been constantly sliding/barricade combo with my Titan. It’s totally possible

1 ReplyI've died quite a few times trying to throw up my shield and instead slide. Would be nice to see this addressed some how.
-
2 RepliesYou can do it. I do it most of the time, but you have to be in-air and then hold O or B to perform the slide animation + class ability. You need about a second in the air to perform it as you touch ground or else you'll just perform the class ability instead of sliding.

15 RepliesIf you play on Console you deserve what you get. Its 2018 and console plebs still think they're getting a good deal having to pay for online multiplayer, trash controls, and sub 30fps gameplay.

2 RepliesIt is actually quite easy to do on xbox. On titan it looks like a shoulder charge barricade.
-
I can see some muppets missed the point. I've actually been killed a few times because the animations delay class abilities. This is especially prominent in crucible where you can be running to cover to drop a rift and only have the rift start after you've slid to a halt thus giving your pursuer ample time to gank you mid animation. I would say it's down to Bungie not allowing animation cancelling.

6 RepliesWtf are you talking about ? Are you playing with your feet? You press circle, and then.....you hold circle. Can you not do that?

I honestly think the slide into a class ability looks more badass
-
It would be interesting to have the ability to use a class ability while sliding, but I would like to see more rework done on the rifts altogether. They don't work with the terrain and moving objects in the game and are horribly broken. The new Warlock sub-class ability to throw out grenades is a _much better_ system that they should have rolled out as the replacement system for all Warlock sub-classes. Unfortunately until then we're stuck with rifts that don't work one half of the time.

2 RepliesEdited by ricstar: 8/20/2018 1:55:28 PMTry cast an empowering rift on the lift platform at the end of 'arms dealer'. The rift is not placed on the platform and stays in place when the lift starts, rather than staying on the platform as it moves up allowing you to use it for damage. The game has many many flaws

4 RepliesEdited by Ski0723: 8/20/2018 6:34:30 PMI'd love to be able to remap the buttons. I'm so sick of being in the middle of a gun fight and randomly stop shooting and start sprinting. It's gotten to the point I've thought about taking my controller apart and removing the left click functionality all together.

I would love to be able to throw my throwing knife any time I want not only when I’m 5’ or further away. -want to throw my knife but I’m too close -back up -oops I was just shy so now I’m gonna lunge forward to stab instead of throw the knife like I actually want
