Combo Weapon change

[Forgot10]

Changing weapons with the numbers are such a hassle, why not enable weapon change up & down to Q, E or even the mouse wheel?

You can rebind it to whatever keys you like. I am personally thinking of Q for laser and E for rockets.

I can't understand how I can run with WASD and change weapons with same hand at the same time.

A question of experience, I would say. UT and Quake pros always have the most useful weapons bound to keys near WASD (at least in QL those binds are default: like Q for rockets, E for LG, R for rail...).

But I agree that scroll selection would be a very handy addition.

Ever since I played FPS games (more than 80% of my life) I never ever used anything else for switching weapons than numeric keys,

Ah, the simple minded drop finally in. Already wondered where they were.

Look, he used numeric keys ... everybody else must do this now.

How about rebind them all 4 on some easy to hit keys? like shift, Q, E, F, MB3 (pressing the scroll), scroll up, scroll down, additional side buttons that you may have on your mouse... so many options for only 4 weapons and still complaining
In UT 2004 i had 9 weapons binded

It wasn't actually just about me... I played with ~500 teammates in my entire life and I have yet to meet someone using mousewheel to change weapons. Maybe it's just me and my luck, lol.
