Like grenades, per individual soldier we are controlling please have the HUD show:
pistol and type
bandages and number of bandages
mines if any
picked up weapon or secondary long gun
amount of build resources for Engineer
It’s very frustrating not knowing exactly what’s available in our soldier’s inventory when we quick swap to another soldier dozens of times mid battle. It’s not as if it’s futuristic or immersion breaking simply knowing what’s equipped on our body.
That HUD that shows the inventory pops up for like 5 seconds when you quick swap troop then fades away.
More often than not I’m instantly in combat, shooting, moving or tossing a nade the millisecond after when quick swapping and I don’t see the inventory before it’s fades away.
I think a good third option might also be a keybind/button that would display it on request.
For people who don’t want to clutter the HUD but still want to access the info.
I salute your focus. I had to disable the keyboard binds for auto throw on det packs (N) and grenades (G) because I kept fat fingering the keys (they’re right next to B, the default for Mount Weapon and H, the select fire toggle).
As long as it’s a keybinds option in addition to being able to change the settings to having it always on.
As a console player that’s gone through all of the various unused keybinds and mapped many to my controller, I’m pretty much maxed out on controller combos and have trouble remembering them all. This is another reason why I’d prefer to have my inventory HUD always on.
