I second this.
Even setting one of the load out equipment slots to be the slot that switches with your primary weapon would be a significant improvement.
As a mouse user, I frequently hold down the scroll wheel button to select equipment, only to slightly roll the wheel while releasing the button, so that the equipment I've just selected is immediately replaced by my weapon. In friendly fire situations where I'm trying to rapidly switch to my rep tool to repair someone low on armor, hilarity ensues. Please change this horrible control layout, or give us the ability to disable the "weapons switch" on suits that lack a secondary weapon.
Alternative solution: let the scroll wheel scroll through our weapon and equipment list, instead of always switching logis to their primary weapon.
Please. This would eliminate the single most frustrating thing about running a logi. |

If you tap R2 while you are holding your primary weapon, it should swap to the first available of: - your sidearm - the equipment you were last holding - a default equipment slot (far right?) - nothing (i.e. you keep holding your primary)
If you tap R2 while holding your sidearm it should swap to your primary. If you tap R2 while holding equipment it should swap to your primary.
If this were implemented, it would tremendously improve my ability to fulfill the logi's role.
As a mouse user, the scroll wheel function should similarly discourage accidentally equipping the primary weapon. That is, scrolling up should terminate in the primary weapon, while scrolling down should select each successive equipment slot, ending with the last equipment slot. While the direction could be reversed, switching scrolling up or down, it should be a series with a beginning and end, not a loop. A loop would permit logies to scroll past our last equipment slot, and inadvertently re-equip our primary weapon, repeating the current design's weakness.
