Re: Spacebar doesn't leave games anymore?

I noticed this as well and I don't see why they changed this. Literally no one asked for this, why even take the time to put this into your patch. It's the same with the sneaky change in season 1 where pressing 3 two times doesn't holster your weapon but instead holsters it and then quickly takes it out again. I really don't understand why you would change little things like this, and not even make a note about it in your patch notes. Transparency is important guys.

    Guys please, just press ESC + spacebar.

    But the holster thing did mess with my hotkeys, not sure why that was changed.

  • I know I can just press ESC + spacebar, however that's not the point. The point is that the devs are changing stuff that no one is asking for, for better or worse. Although these examples may be small, imagine them changing bigger stuff without putting anything in the patch notes. That's not how you want to communicate with your playerbase.

    there was an issue with spacebar. you press spacebar(jump) and left click so fast in battle and you leave a match after died and you wanted to watch that match so they have changed it to ESC key. I really like this change. most game use ESC key to leave the match and this is the right option.

    That was happening to me and I have to say I'm glad about the change. 

  • How about make it optional. It was super handy when your squad went down, just spam space and your ready for next match. Now only thing that happens is you end up in settings. So now im watching my settings after every squad wipe out. God damned this is frustrating.

    If there was some weird problem that some ones wanted to spectate, make it like "double click" spacebar or smthng. I definetly want this quality of life spacebar button back.

    OMG, I can't press ESC key because it's five miles away from spacebar

  • double ESC would be semi-ok too. But not this. Esc-space = settings. So you have to hit esc then move mouse and click. I don't get it why things must do harder when they were better.

    Do you play your hand on on esc? I don't. But on space yes.
