Slow Weapon Change Times

Post » Mon Jan 18, 2016 12:22 am

I have erratic weapon change times and often take way to long. i pretty much cant change weapons during combat.


does anyone esle have the same problem?




I'm running on an asus g750j laptop with optimized setting with the resolution turned down to 720p and antialiasing on high, I turned on the the godrays to medium and rain occlusion turned on.

This is a known bug that's typically due to hotkey issues. Do you have hotkeys (1, 2, 3, etc.) assigned for your guns? Often when using these hotkeys to pull a gun out, this occurs. There are a few temporary solutions to it. Zooming out to third person and then back in to first person sometimes helps. Alternatively, selecting the weapon in your Pip-Boy usually works. You can also press F to bring up a mini menu and then use WASD to scroll through the menu and E to select a gun from it. This last option is usually what I try first.



This is an issue that I'd really like to see fixed in the next patch. There are times I'll switch guns with a hotkey and it'll take 10-15 seconds to pull it out. This can be a real problem when I've got a behemoth or a deathclaw running at me lol

I'm using a corded 360 controller. the dpad has 3 hotkey slots for each arrow on the dpad.

If they can't fix it, they could "feature" it by having the SS say things like "Dammit, where is it?" or "C'mon, get out of there!"


As it is now... yeah, annoying as hell.

Sometimes it takes a while to pull stuff out of the invisible Bag of Holding where the SS keeps them.

I see. I'm not sure if this issue also exists on controllers, but I'm guessing it does.





lol...Now there's one alternative.


"Dammit, I knew I shouldn't have picked up all this junk! Now I can't even find my gun!"
