LMG issues

[luciferintears]

Is anyone else having in issue where as soon as they prone the MG automatically deploys? I'm not sure if this is a feature or a glitch but it is very annoying.

If not, then it could be me, because i'm using the Hold ADS configuration edit.

Unfortunately i cannot (and dont want) to play with toggle ads especially coupled with the cover system, so if that is the case then i guess ill have to avoid the LMG class

I'm pretty sure that auto-deploy on prone is a feature that was shown in a video by TW quite a ways back. Perhaps you could explain why you find it annoying? While I'm not yet playing the beta (just a few more days before my comp arrives ) I would think it would be handy compared to the numerous clicks involved in managing the RO1 LMG.

Does the deploy animation prevent some other action you wish to perform or is it a reduced sight range that bothers you?

As far as I know it's a feature that's fully implemented in game.

It is kinda annoying, although sometimes it's helpful too.

Unfortunately there's no option to turn it off at this time.

however, i'm under the impression that if you undeploy to crawl it won't deploy back when you stop moving (it will, however, deploy if you stand up and go prone again). At least that's how i think it works, havent used lmgs that much and it might have just been coincidense.

it is terribly annoying; if i wanted to deploy, i would have clicked the deploy button.

everything is made worse by the fact that im using hold ads. so when i go prone it automatically deploys but i cant undeploy because my ads is not toggle so i cant just click out of it

My opinion is split about this.
Sometimes it comes in handy but often its just confusing and I will actually deploy->undeploy->deploy -> and then most likely be already dead if there was an enemy xD

I would appreciate a way to deactivate it as well tbh...

I use the MG religously; you might just need to understand the controlls better?

I've had no isses with this; prone, mouse 2, move around..stop; aim, shoot.
Its has its own methodology to use it, you'll learn to avoid that once you use it more and more; i really like it though, saves you life more times then it might take it.
