(PSN)haphazardlynamed Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 DE can we just remove Tap Alt Again to Deactivate Incarnon Mode? I have Never wanted to intentionally do this on the other hand, I have lost count of how many times I've Accidentally Wasted Incarnon Mode by trying to Heavy Melee after aim gliding. I'm pretty sure most people would agree with this? It's not a useful feature and actually an hinderance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormandreas Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Nah, I use it all the time. When I have very few shots in my incarnon and there's a new group of enemies coming along or I'm heading to, I disable it, and then recharge to full in a few shots, then wipe the group without having to go through both animations in the middle of the fight. It has it's uses. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakkhar Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Just make it undeactivable for a couple of seconds after activation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred_Avant_2019 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Hold the swap weapon key to lock yourself in melee before you bother with melee heavies. It's not the end of the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the end of the world. that's 2 seconds of standing still holding down a button to swap. quick melee was introduced to smooth out transitions between gun and sword; your proposal defeats all that. ?not the end of the world? no, but at that rate I might as well not even bother using a melee and just stay with a gun. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you're saying is: see group spawn in next room, uhoh, only 3 shots left. dump incarnon, backtrack down a hallway, find a lone grineer recharge off that one guy return to big group to wipe them all in incarnon mode ?you really do all that trouble, just to avoid having to do a Reload pause mid fight? are they Really that much of a threat that you need to do that? Pretty sure by the time you manage to do that, Public Squad has already cleared that spawn for you. The situation just doesn't come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see, console issues. I was not aware of it (or I've forgotten about it). Then INSTEAD OF: 6 hours ago, (PSN)haphazardlynamed said: can we just remove Tap Alt Again to Deactivate Incarnon Mode? can we just remove gun charge reset for incarnon and made it instant? So, let's say you are in Incarnon form at 50% ammo. You go to Base form and go to Incarnon form again. You are still at 50% ammo. All of those takes very small amount of time. Not perfect but for person like Stormandreas it won't remove such function. You still can go/exit forms but going back is almost instant so it's not big problem, I guess. .... but I doubt it will happen as we have to look at this nice animation. *chuckle* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I find it rewarding that reload speed modifiers can be so impactful for Incarnon. Though one semi-related thing I do want fixed is the transition from Incarnon to regular mode getting interrupted. (If it hasn't been fixed already.)

As for guns, it's not like you can almost immediately recharge it and change into incarnon form. It's not drawback or some kind of "pro & cons" situations. It's just annoying. 25 minutes ago, Tiltskillet said: Though one semi-related thing I do want fixed is the transition from Incarnon to regular mode getting interrupted.

KitMeHarder Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Or just have it not deplete the remaining charges when we deactivate incarnon mode. It'd be nice be able to use both modes of a dual-fire gun fluidly in combat, and not just dictate one mode be exclusively for... "what is my purpose?" "you build incarnon charges" "oh my God" 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the fact they get interrupted that bothers me, particularly going from conventional to Incarnon. It's that I can end up in a loop where I'm trying to shoot from an empty Incarnon mode weapon. If they get interrupted it should automatically transition to conventional mode when the reload duration would have finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auxeus Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Early deactivation is necessary as mentioned by others, but players can be in a bad spot with no a spare second to read if the weapon has been transformed and accidently deactivate incarnon. So my idea of work around is use an extra trigger key that require hold down combine with Alt to deactivate. An deactivation safety lock as an option to enable or disable for those who want or don't want. Since I'm on PC keyboard, the L-ALT key seem appealing position to use with the middle mouse for deactivations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I'm saying: See groiup spawn in the next room with only 3 shots left Dump incarnon pre-emptively Go INTO THE GROUP, charge incarnon kill group with incarnon. This way, I don't go through both transformation animations WHILE FIGHITING the enemies, only 1. This situation, comes up a LOT (as I don't play in public as often what I'm doing, I can do perfectly fine solo, and infact, faster, solo) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azamagon Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Since we use altfire for ranged weapons to go into Incarnon mode, which is the same button as melee heavy attack, it's definitely very easy to accidentally turn off Incarnon mode. But... What if going into Incarnon mode instead had 2 button-options, and we could enable/disable each option in the options menu: Button 1 - Altfire, like now. Button 2 - Hold the reload button for 0,5 seconds. This would not only make it less button-intrusive, it would also potentially allow for weapons which already have altfires to get Incarnon adapters! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think something like hold aim+reload would be pretty intuitive and unintrusive. That's not a combination of buttons you hold together in any situation. They're both gun related buttons and it just kinda makes sense in my head. Focus on gun+hold reload to transform weapon. It just makes sense. And tactical combos for mele also uses hold aim and press another button, so it's not out of place in the control scheme of the game. I'd say holding reload on it's own would work great if not for reload and interact being mapped to the same button on controller, with no real convenient way to separate them without taking up some much needed button realestate. Which would make is so attempting to revive someone would almost always cancel your incarnon because revive always bugs out. But yeah it being alt fire is really frustrating. And it's not only that you might tap it on instinct and ruin your charge. It's that on controller it's not difficult to accidentally press the stick in in an intense situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
