Re: FAQ on Settings and Functionality -- Things Many Players Don't Know!


The Redeploy hotkey was added in GU04 as part of VR. Idea was that it could be used to get back to the main facility instead of having a bunch of teleporters out in the zone. And it is convenient for when you aren't in VR, so was all around a good add. The Tutorial teaches the redeploy key as a nice way of having the player respawn, so two birds with one stone. Wanted them to learn it in the tutorial so new players know how they can get back to someplace familiar if they are ever stuck in geometry or out in the middle of nowhere.

And of course the Instant Action hotkey was added as part of the tutorial to help new players learn the quick and easy way to get into the fight rather than being buried in the map.

Those two make a nice set for helping players get around more conveniently that are easy to teach.

The instant action hotkey was a great add for sure I especially like how it shows where you are going to redeploy.

i really LOVE those 2 hotkeys,
altough once i could start redeploying with canc and then open the map or other tabs to browse without having the timer cancelled, which now happens, works as intended?

Noticed this as well, used to be able to hit Delete then open the map, etc., but now that cancels it also. Not sure which version is intended.
