Who here hates the feature of being stuck to the radio and not being able to use your gun even when you are not using it. Irks me when I go to aim and shoot and all of a sudden I am stuck to the radio like velcro and get butstroked in the head.
Radio quirky feature

I never used the radio but that sounds annoying. Very annoying.
Same thing with trying to pick up a nade on the ground but instead hugging the wall adjacent and get sprayed by PPSH. Or mounting the weapon and exposing my head instead of picking up the nade.

Also, if you are locked in the radio (radio interface showing) as and are killed by the enemy you do not die... but as soon as you exit it... Dead.
Well im pretty sure it is. infact you can even use the re-spawn feature while dead if you are engaged to the radio interface.
But as for locking in.... i have been killed about 4 times as commander being locked into radio on spartnovka when some one slips around the back and enters the church when i am there by myself near the radio.... you unlock from the interface... but till cant do sh!t.
The features needs some work.... but in a realism sense...as it is makes sense.
your gun is down if not kept a few mtrs away from where you are using the radio.

This is the aspect that greatly annoys me. If you are within 'range' of the radio you can't shoot past it because your weapon automatically drops to the unready position. Annoying. Annoying. Annoying. (You can shoot through radios but you have to be a good few metres away from them first.)
^^^^^^^
that! proper pisses me of it does! its like the radio crop is 2ms around the radio, yet you have to be almost on top of the radio to use it!
even your pistol drops down! makes no sense!

Ya, the gun lowering sucks and is in way to wide of an area for some radios. Also getting killed in the radio sometimes makes you respawn with the radio still up and won't let you turn with the mouse wheel. The only way to fix is to go back to the radio, use it and exit properly, which can be a challenge when your have a fixed camera view. I think it might only occur if you quickly respawn or force respawn a few seconds after dying.
Also hitting N lets you force respawn at any point in time when its not on cd, even when your dead.

Reminds me of how you can move around and change direction with your map open, but if you're the commander you can't steer with the map open.
Doesn't help when you're moving/scanning past a radio; doesn't help while you're in the 'capture' radius of the radio; cover system exposes far more of you than is necessary when firing; takes additional clicks just to shoot past a radio (which is, frankly, daft).
