Please Restore Function To These Areas That Got Broke (Ui/equipment/abilities)

[Edgarhighman]

These used to work, still not working. DERebecca had asked for feedback.

The paragraph below was asked by a Dev on an update thread, Below that you will see the specific feedback on what was broke on U17 (still not fixed):
Fixed not being able to do a number of actions while sprinting (Waypoints, Hotkeys). If you encounter more issues with certain key actions not working in certain states, please let us know.

THISSSSSSS DE !!! I AM SURPRISED YOU FIXED THIS (WILL post if there are still issues) YESSSSSSSSSSSS. TEST TIME!

FIXED: CAN PLACE WAYPOINTS while sprinting
FIXED: CAN PLACE Restore pads while sprinting
FIXED: CAN OPEN Gear menu while sprinting (halts movement though)
Not fixed: Cannot place waypoint while melee (used to work)
Not fixed: Cannot place restore pad while melee (used to work)
Not fixed: Cannot reload while sprinting (can reload during bullet jump but not roll? goodbye fluidity)
Not fixed: Cannot open progress menu while sprinting (used to work)
Not fixed: Cannot open progress menu while melee animation (used to work)
Not fixed: Cannot open progress menu while using an ability
Not fixed: Cannot waypoint while using an ability
Not fixed: Cannot drop a restore pad while using an ability.
Update: Not fixed: Cannot drop a restore pad while reviving.
Update: there may have been one more, but I dont remember what it was :'(

All of these "not fixed" worked prior to U17. Two updates later I give you the same (and additional) feedback asked for in the update thread. Hope to see this clunkiness removed and gameplay restored!

Keep it up DE! Looking to functionality and fluidity restored!!!!@!!!!

explaing what "while melee" means

[Edgarhighman]

During a melee animation you can no longer hit Mission progress (because... tactical) and you cant drop energy/ammo/shield/hp pads during the animation (you used to be able to, BREAKING this means you wont get the pad on time, OR will deploy TOO MANY pads because you're waiting on the animation to end) Oh, and you also can't set a waypoint until melee is finished.

 

What happened to HOLDING WP button removed wp and pressing placed wp? now you have to spam it 2x in 1 spot... while fighting/moving etc... ugh.

 

DE broke sprinting and fixed it within a week, its been 2 months, IDK why they didn't restore the other functions...

 

These things need attention.

 

DE fixes "mystery" bugs within a few days, but long-standing year+ bugs they dont touch??? wth? galatine model doesn't connect with enemies, orthos PRIME however has 27.5 FEEEET range with primed reach... Really? This has been since Prime reach release, and galatine has been range-deficient forever?

DE fixes "mystery" bugs within a few days, but long-standing year+ bugs they dont touch??? wth?

Some of the possibilities:

A)They might not be able to pinpoint the source of the problem

B)A fix may be possible, but would F*** up other stuff that relies on it.

C)It's a minor thing and is not on high priority

D)It might not be possible to fix it cuz engine, low-spec users, etc.

E)They don't care about that bug
