    Wow thats a trend I've been noticing... just basic things that players have been asking for, for a long time.... Sigh just seems so hard to like this game...

    Well, if they wanted us to be able to switch quickly between weapons in a larger pool, my bet is that they would have specifically given us 3 or 4 slots instead of just the 2.

    It's got to be a limitation purposely designed into the game. This is the kind of thing devs do on purpose.

    Just like the long wait time to reset a weapon, and the high costs involved, or the 'destroy the mods or weapon, can't reclaim both' limitation. It's to steer game play options and decisions. These are not oversights, they are ways to limit our options and keep us 'hampered' in a planned manner.
    These are just my opinions.
    I have lots of opinions.
    Some of them, on occasion, people have agreed with.
    I do not trust those people.

    I think its just more then swapping out weapons, each Layout serves a purpose right down to shield type , grenade, vehicle and weapon. (to some extent even the cloths)

    It wouldn't be that bad if the menu screen didn't simply take over, and freezes you.

    I know of a lot of games that have "saved layout" this is the only game i've played that makes it useful. It almost feels like a FPS that was turned into a MMO as an afterthought. Im sure thats not a new revelation among this fan base either.

    just press L.
    pick a number
    takes 2 seconds as long as you know your own loadouts.
