Okay... we have weapon groups, this works wonderfully... We assign weapons to groups and map these to our preferred mouse / keyboard / joystick buttons.

Working as intended.

Now for me... yes, I have 14 button on my mouse. That said, due to years of football and the resulting arthritis at best I can comfortably access 5 and of those 5, 3 are used routinely.

While I realize this is not necessarily "typical" to the average player... it is a hindrance to my ability utilize all the functions of MW:O

idea: I typically run "balanced builds" in that I have weapons for all ranges... That said, button 1 and 2 are my primary weapon groups. I was thinking it would be cool to have "range profiles" in addition to our weapon groups.

Example: Cataphract -1x

Long Range Profile:
- button 1 = EPPC x 2
- button 2 = MLas x 3
- button 3 = LBX-10

Medium Range Profile:
- Button 1 = Mlas x 3
- Button 2 = LBX-10
- Button 3 = EPPC x 2

Short Range Profile:
- Button 1 = LBX-10
- Button 2 = MLas x 3
- button 3 = EPPC x 2

This would allow different weapon profiles to be switch on the fly, allowing the three most used buttons to be utilize for the weapons. Not only that but it allows players who only have a three / four button mouse access to a higher number of mapped groupings.

FWIW... Just thinking out loud.
