Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. N/A
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. N/A
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? 0
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm)
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? Have to hold-to-swap from Red to Gold armor (even with empty Red to full Gold) which gets you killed in intense fights.
What should be happening instead? Instant swap from Red to Gold armor regardless of Red armor charge (empty/full) otherwise you die in intense battles for no good reason.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go in firing range or play any match.

Whether your Red armor is completely empty or not, you have to hold-to-swap to full Gold armor.

 

This gets pros killed during tournaments with money on the line, and in general during any intense fights.

 

Remove hold-to-swap or at the very least make it an option in Settings.

 

Desire to fix this is unanimous from every single good player I've asked including TSM_ImperialHa1, Aceu, TSM_Albralelie, NRG_Frexs, CLG_ImMadness, and many more.
