3.2 feels like a new game

@PsubondCan't you just re-map controls to whatever you want?

no.  the weapon swap button is combined with the plus button (hit to change weapon, hold to open the plus menu).  you can't remap things to make it the way it used to be on xbox because it used to be hold the plus menu button then hit Y to change optics.  if you are holding Y you can't hit Y.   if you change the plus menu button to another button then your weapon swap goes with it and now all that muscle memory for switching to sidearm is screwed.  there is no reason that needed to be combined and because it was it is unfixable in custom settings.  the grenade button was also moved (that can be fixed in custom layout but given Dice's track record of screwing * up i'm sure the custom layouts will be lost from time to time)

then there's the UI.  if i want to use a stinger i have to use crawford or boris.  but if i want to switch to lis i have to manually go in and unequip the stinger to mines or c5 (why a specialist gets locked out of most of their class gadgets is another thing entirely).  before the update i had 8 loadouts set for specific situations and i could quickly switch.  now i have to keep editing my loadouts that get bound to the other specialists in the class.

if for no other reason, this update is a dumpster fire because of the UI with loadouts and the controller settings

edit:  and if you use the default layout then you have to stop moving to use the plus menu...unless you have 4 thumbs
