The selector isn't messed up.
The game forces the mouse to use a virtual analog stick emulator. An analog stick normally is held down in a certain direction to get a constant input when selecting from a radial menu. Unfortunately in this case, you cannot "hold down" your mouse via the incredibly flawed emulator.
So instead, it decides to go batshit crazy. |

It isn't exactly an example of sterling game function with the analog sticks either. I know I find myself repeatedly selecting items before it finally lets me switch. If it weren't for the fact I'm probably not rendering at long range, snipers would have a field day with these equipment swap shenanigans. |

It takes some getting used to, you have to keep constant motion in the direction of the radial selection prior to releasing the selector.
I could see how this would be difficult for some. |

Yep, this is exactly how to do it. IT would be nicer if it was like before though. |

I agree the weapon/item selection wheel is junk. Same thing for the squad leader order selections. At the very least you should have to hit X to select what you want. So you move to the correct item and select X and then you switch to that item. This would fix a majority of the issues with this system. |

I just want the option - OPTION, leave it as-is by default - to make the quick-swap cycle through equipment as well as weapons. Would be a HUGE improvement for Logi players.
I remember back when I started, you always had the quick-swap cycling through everything, and if you were running a high-level Assault or Scout with lots of slots, you could have a few presses to get back to a weapon if you didn't use the wheel. Back then, I was asking for the OPTION (not forced, OPTIONAL like all OPTIONS should be) to change the quick-swap priority to weapons-only. I still want that system - the one we have now - as an option, but I DON'T want it to be the only way for the game to work. That's just not cool. Like refusing to give HAVs the R2/L2 accelerate/brake control option, and like failing to provide proper controller remapping so we can actually customise our controls. |

It seems to work fine on the DS3, so I'll leave that alone.
As for the Keyboard/Mouse.. why not just map each slot in the radial menu to a keyboard numeral like every other game?
1 - Main hand
2 - Off Hand
3 - Equipment 1
4 - Etc..
This would make me SO much happier than losing precious moments while trying to coerce the radial to listen to where my mouse wants it to go. |

That wheel is a POS. If they would just let the equipment/etc that you are selecting as you hover on it lock on instead of being a matter of release to select it would work infinitely better. They already half assed copy what other games before them have done, why not emulate them 100% so it works. see the hitman game for example. |
