Pallet/Self Heal

I’m really starting to hate how when I’m injured and I need to throw a pallet down the game refuses to let me do it and will only let me self heal. I can even stand still and nope it’ll still only let me spam the self heal. There needs to be a different button option for self heal and pallets because it’s stupid to have them as the same thing. This doesn’t happen all the time but it shouldn’t be happening to begin with.

    You on console or use a controller on PC?
    For consoles and PC gamepads, two separate type of actions are both bound to R1/RB. Personally I circumvented it by setting the second one (for vaults and pallet drops) to Square/X, and the other one (repairs, heals, other actions) to stay at R1.
    The game does not use the Square/X button for anything else so all you’ll need to do is get used to which actions are newly rebound to what button.

    Pallet is Spacebar, Self Heal is M2 by default

    So you change the button layout?! I'm on console

    You can do that even on console - go into settings and in ‘controls’, you will be able to change the button layout I believe.

    Actually its M1 for self heal with self care and M2 for using items (healing with a medkit)

    I haven't been using SC for a year. I don't miss it. Of course, this means that I pass some matches injured. But since I use Iron Will, I don't notice a difference.

    I don't run it either anymore, i heal myself with Adrenaline. The genrush is real when you don't waste time on healing.

    on console they are both secondary action, so the pallet and self care will be bound together

    I mean, SC can be useful sometimes, but if you know how to play and/or you got nice teammates SC is almost worthless.

    I just stopped using it because it was only viable with botany, and that is using 2 of your only 4 slots

    It really is. I still think nerfing healing to slow down the game was a patchwork and will do nothing.

    The meta perks (DS, SC, SB) let people get to higher ranks than they deserve. They make the game to easy. A survivor isn't meant to be self sufficient.

    Believe me when i say that those perks are overrated. My swf group only has 1 DS user AT MOST, we don't heal ourselves and balanced landing is better than sprint burst. Only good killers can rekt us.
    When i face survivors using the build you mention they are usually the first ones to die.

    Exactly why I’m saying to bind Secondary Action to Square/X on the game pad as that button is unused and keep the primary actions on R1/RB.
    I play on PC, and used to play on PS4. On my PC, I use a controller to play Survivor and M/KB for Killer.
    I know you can change the button layout on console because I’ve done it for both platforms.
    Believe me, setting an unused button to the action that is bound to another action’s keybind really helps.

    EDIT: I didn’t read your comment properly - you’re wrong about that. Self-Care counts as a Primary Action and is bound to R1/RB.
    If it’s bound to M1 on PC, it’s a primary action - if it’s bound to spacebar, it’s a secondary action.
    My bad.

    Honestly theres no point arguing with Tsulan, up until two weeks ago he didn't know how hatch worked and argued with two moderators about it, dude doesn't know a lot about the game considering how vocal he is.

    Thank you, i know that you tried to hold back in your previous comment, so i know i did pretty well finding it out.

    I have vaults set to R2 and items to left on d-pad on PS4(unfortunately can't use flashlights with these controls anymore)

  • Mullato
    Mullato Member Posts: 104
    I set my vault/drop pallet button to R3
    And of course self care and gens are still R1.

    It has helped me alot. Since your thumb will already be on the right stick for camera movement.

    And here i was thinking, that you were finally able to forget that personal grudge you hold against me.
    But i was wrong again. As i was about the mentioned hatch.
    Where i argued with 2 Mods about the hatch appearing with only 2 gens done and 2 survivors left. Based on a suspiciously high amount of instant escapes after the other survivor died.

    But at least i´m able to admit when i´m wrong and don´t move the goalpost and try to ridiculize others.

    For example, @powerbats and i often disagree. But we never get personal or take it personal and we are mature enough to continue with a friendly conversation in the next thread.
    Instead of carrying a grudge over to every thread and seeking a way to discredit the other person.

    Is there any proof of this happening? I've not seen a single video of this major bug that's apparently rampant in... only your matches?

    Able to admit you're wrong? I don't argue about facts, I argue about opinions, opinions can't really be wrong, if you think DS is OP and I don't, I'm not wrong, I just have a different opinion, I don't argue with mods who tell me I'm wrong and then try to blame it on a bug. I'd love to see a comment chain of me "moving the goalpost".

    You didn't know how hatch works, telling someone that arguing with you is silly because you don't know what you're talking about most of the time isn't a grudge. I knew how hatch worked after the first week of playing, I can't take anyone seriously who has to be argued with by two moderators into seeing how a mechanic works.

    Ok first point, I asked for proof of this said bug, seeing as you're the only one experiencing it, if it was a major bug I'm sure there'd be some proof of this happening out there.

    and as for me "moving the goal post" yea, having multiple conversations with different people about different things is really moving the goal post, I apologise that multiple people want to cry at me that survivors aren't dying enough.

    and yes I will, not to discredit you but it shows your lack of understanding of the game, such a simple mechanic like that hatch, one more gen than there are survivors, and you still argue the toss and think you're correct despite two moderators telling you otherwise, you LITERALLY think what you say is correct regardless of two people who have been playing since beta telling you otherwise, OMEGALUL.
