I'm not quite sure why we are required to keep our fingers pressed on TAG when it is really something that you never want to turn off. It's a piece of electronic warfare, differing only from BAP/ECM/Artemis in that you have to aim it.

There should be an option to keep TAG permanently engaged as to free up a finger for weapons fire.

The only disadvantage to having tag on that i can think of is the little beam of light giving away your position, which is why there should be a toggle to disable it. On/Off, not pew pew pew light beam!!

The need for this is only made more evident by the emergence of ECM. As a Tag/ECM Raven, my ability to take on and destroy more than 1 ECM mech in an area is dependant on TAG for targeting if they are both in counter mode.

You'd think something so request and with absolutely no negative feedback would be mentioned at least even in passing by the devs! Truth be told they probably don't pay much attention to here. Gotta flood the net it seems to get anything through. Just look at the general forum

im going around all threads bumping this topic, tag needs a toggle!!!

I do not like the press and hold feature either unless I am doing passive spotting without actively engaging my target. However, when I am in a knife-fight with someone I'd prefer a toggle.

Put TAG on Catapult C1 to test the TAG counter to ECM deal.

Having to hold one button and then hit a second fire button is a royal pain in the dairy-air for sure. Moving at speed makes things even worser.

A Toggle would be good. A properly functioning Joystick would be better though.

I had a vision of some elite special forces running through a building complex with their laser tag flickering all over the place, 'Shut that thing off private!"

Lol, except in this case TAG is supposed to be infrared so I don't even know why we can see it in the first place.
