so for example, with my config right mouse button always toggles the 2 main weapons for each class. i also have q as the "class skill", such as engy-menu/medpack/small-shotty-for-soldier/det-pipes/sniper-scope/etc. this has always worked really well for me in TFC/FF. i use other stuff too ofc, but this is the basic weapon switching that i'd probably find the game v frustrating if i didn't have.

so yeah, i would really like to have a much better default config (weapon switching and gren button placement especially). would this help do you think?
not at all, the single shot gun is innefective no matter what you believe. truth is no body uses it if they have a super shotgun. it is a bad choice to use given its low damage infliction and its tight cone of fire.
