I use 'hold' rather than 'toggle'. I've experimented with the toggle option but I can't get used to it after using hold for a long time.

Always holding down my sights chief. 

 

And I do a mix of both crouching and sliding to ensure no one can get an easy headshot off me.

@ElBirri Of course, Hold because it's faster.

Always hold for ads. Toggle is extremely clunky and you're also prone to do more mistakes using it, especially under stress.

 

As for crouch/slide, I have a weird setup: I have hold slide on Q, hold crouch/slide on Ctrl and toggle crouch on C. I use them all.

I use Q for just sliding when running - it's just a more convenient button than Ctrl for common use. I use Ctrl for some other maneuvers (where Q is inconvenient, e.g., backward slide mid-combat) and I use C when I need to crouch for extended periods (e.g., healing behind a small rock).

I think it can go either way for PC players. I use toggle because I worry that my grasp on the mouse will be restricted during aiming. Most of my old favourites also had it this way by default.

Mentally when I'm in a firefight, I feel like the action of entering and exiting with two separate presses is like adding quotations at the beginning and end of a sentence. Satisfying. Bullets are like a statement in a way.

I don't see any reason for console players to change up what they've learned from other casual shooters. Using a trigger for toggle doesn't sound practical unless you're constantly keeping the pressure near the threshold.

@ElBirri I just tap for both of them. Tap for ADS is more accurate and feels better and gives me more control. I tap crouch/slide because I like to bounce around the whole match.

Charging shield? *teabags*
Firefight? *teabags*
Doing absolutely nothing? *teabags*
It makes you harder to hit and I only hit the button once vs. twice
