More Controller options

Hello apex legends developers. I play on console and it is quite hard to play sometimes due to limited controller buttons. I have some recommendations.

I would like the option to bind more than one button for any given use. For example, I have auto sprint on so I don't use manual sprint. And my sprint button is triangle, it would be greatly appreciated if I could switch my sprint button lets say to reload so that I could have 2 reload buttons instead of having one useless button.

In addition, I think a lot of console players have issues with how long it takes to switch your weapon. If your on weapon "A" and you need to get to weapon "B" you would have to un-holster your weapon but clicking r1 (i use r1 to switch weapons) and then click r1 again to get to weapon "B".  I recommend having an option that allows you to click r1 once to holster your weapon, twice to switch to your primary firearm, and three times to switch two your secondary firearm. Or even an option to use my triangle to switch to primary or secondary.

If you see this, I hope you can tell me if this is do-able. Thank you

  • I've been wanting the ability to create/split multibind functions for a while also.

    Having reload/action/revive teammate on one button can be seriously inconvenient.

    We definitely need more freedom on input allocation for sure.

  • I usually have the problem that I press the "R3" button on my controller, so yeah, on a fight I suddenly punch. I changed it in order to punch with the down arrow and with R3 say quips and some stuff, it bothers much less than punching, but it still happens sometimes. I'd love if I could make the R3 button do nothing at all.
