Mouse Wheel Weapon Scrolling

Post » Tue Apr 13, 2010 6:38 pm

I play a lot of shooters. And while I don't know how most people play FO3/New Vegas, I for one don't just use ONE weapon. The limited hotkey set up (made even more limited by the unbindable 2 ammo mod key) makes it difficult to decide what weapons and chems I want "on deck."

Since I play exclusively in 1st person (and the 3rd person camera can't even be pulled back very far in NV) I want to be able to scroll through my weapons with the mouse wheel; just like with any other shooter. Now, I know if this was added in a mod, it would mean being required to place your weapons on hotkeys and it would scroll through those keys. But adding in the ability to weapon scroll in the game itself could allow you to simply scroll through every equippable weapon in your inventory, which would free up those 7 hotkeys for chem use.

Please consider this; someone. Mod makers, Obsidian, Bethesda.... It needs to happen.

Oh, definitely!

I really think about this everytime I accidentically use the scrollwheel and end up in 3rd person view ;)

That would be a great update.. Maybe it can be implemented as optional feature and activated in the options :)
