Make defusing priority over reviving.

(Sithas) #1

I would really like that if one of your teammates is downed while lying on a enemy c4, that defusing the bomb gets the priority instead of reviving said teammate while pressing F. Too many times i lost important objectives because i couldnt defuse the c4. And a quick reminder to those who have forgotton/don’t know. you can suicide by pressing K.

[ShooterGame.SGContextActionManager]
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_DISARM
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_ARM
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_CONSTRUCT
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_REPAIR
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_PDA
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_PICK_UP
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_DELIVER
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_USE
m_InteractionPriorityOrder=PIT_HACK

im guessing it’s supposed to be, if the above thing is the correct one

They should just make it a new button. It’s a PC only shooter so why not? However, they have made it so that the defuse box is bigger than the revive box and it tries to prioritize them. However, it doesn’t always work. But what does work is always aim your xhair above the body and it will defuse over helping up. That was one of the changes they made a while back to help resolve the issue. Train yourself to do that and it shouldn’t be a huge issue even if it is somewhat annoying (and should be changed as stated above IMO).

[quote=“Amerika;69405”]They should just make it a new button. It’s a PC only shooter so why not?[/quote]Pretty much this. There’s almost never a time where I want to manually help someone up in game, but binding it elsewhere would be just fine by me.

Yeah I agree…granted I’ve been lucky enough where it hasn’t happened very often, I have had a few times where I’m going all over trying to defuse and I keep trying to help up the body.

I don’t think adding new interaction button would be that good way of dealing with the issue. That priority list is new to me, and that hitbox trick with aiming higher to defuse, thanks for those Volcano and Amerika! Would still like to see SD keeping the system simple, as in 1 universal interaction button and finding a way to fix the priority to what it apparently is already supposed to be.

Same here, didnt seem to matter were i aimed my crosshair… revive took priority…

Am a little shocked and disappointed SD didnt learn from Brink, in this regard. it was a major complaint from the PC side, having ‘one button to rule them all’…They got it right in ETQW, what happened in Brink and now DB, mind boggling…

Just to add: this is another situation friendly fire would resolve!

Downed Phantom: HELP ME UP
Proxy: shotgun disarm
Dead Phantom: :cry:

Bomb Disarmed - Check…

Gibbed/Dead Phantom - Check…

Not seeing a Down side to this, to be honest… :wink:

Perhaps that is the reason we dont have friendly fire haha, but It’s a shame really, i’ve also had situations where i was in position to defuse but the proxy on the C4 wouldn’t K out :’(

Also with friendly fire i could just down my low hp teammates and then rez em right back up with a full charge when im out of packs on bonez, kinda miss that since it was possible in ET.

The problem isn’t the priority it’s the teammate, if they are down on a bomb(And if they are NOT an engineer merc) then they should give up so that people can disarm it rather than being in the way of your team. Your life is not more important than the objective, there’s only one of it and infinite of you.
