Question: Assaults

[KAreil]

If I turn off all weapons except AT (e.g. the RPG) in the rightclick-menu - does this prevent close assaults as well?


To be honest until now I did never need the T-W-key-procedure because I thought I could select the weapons to use more easily by turning off the other ones...please correct me if I'm wrong.

Probably a case of six of one and half a dozen of the other. I find the given process quicker for me, since I am used to it.

Plus I prefer a few quick keystrokes over fiddly mouse pointing and clicking to turn weapons off and then reversing the process once finished. (Or forgetting to turn them back on, as I tend to do!)

W key is a lot quicker, also handy in other cases such as wanting to fire a MG ranging shot before firing the main weapon.

I tried the T/W technique but the unit would still close assault using the selected weapon. After the T/W I would do the F key, is there something else I should be doing?
