Turning Precision Choke on and off

With a few guns there are certain hop-ups that change the gun in drastic ways, the precision choke being one of these.

For the Triple-Take and the Peacekeeper the precision choke is an amazing tool that can amount to massive damage if your hits connect but it does come with a few drawbacks.

1. Sound - Sound is a very important aspect of apex legends, especially in those tense 1v1 situations, often charging up the Peacekeeper or Triple-Take can alert others to your presence so it is difficult to remain stealthy while using the precision choke.

2. Clutter - This is a very minor issue but the choke UI often obscures your ADS reticle, so can make target acquisition more difficult.

3. Losing the benefit of the Triple Take's spread - This is quite a specific issue, but once you've taken that first shot and people start running around madly looking for cover, sometimes the triple take is more effective without the choke as all you want to do is hit the enemy a couple of extra times to down them.

So to the actual point of the post, I think it would be valuable to be able to switch between having the choke on and off, so that the can adapt our play styles on the fly rather than having to manually un-equip the choke from the menu.

  • @Cabowse Either unequip it like we do with high powered sniper scopes or quickscope, adding a option to disable it while it's equipped would just add unnecessary micromanaging imo

    @Pretzelnutcake While your input is valuable, I can't see how having an easy option to switch the precision choke on and off is unnecessary micromanaging in comparison to manually unequipping it, especially in quick-fire situations.

    It would just use the same button as the select fire, super easy!
  • @CabowseI posted the same thing in season 1.

    I asked respawn to make the choke switchable like select fire.

    Well, I hope they implement it this time around. or maybe we will have to wait for season 4...

    I hate have to make a choice rather to run my triple take with the choke or with out it.

    Usually, I run my triple take without the choke.

  • I always wanted that option too mainly for the Triple Take. Some people don't use the Choke on Peacekeeper because they want the spread.
