Hi all.
One of those "synchronicity" things. I've heard several people complain about ending up with the wrong weapon in a fast & furious gunfight while scrolling through weapons with the mouse wheel. This used to happen to me, but no more! I've set up my mousewheel so that forward switches to my primary weapon, and backwards switches to my secondary. All other weapons, I use the keyboard. My "scroll through weapons" command is unbound. Works for me. Your milage may vary. --------------------  |

As a Macintosh user I don't get much chances to use a mouse wheel, but I use a 2 button mouse with one. Only time I use it is to switch positions in the jeep. Plus the wheel doesn't work so well with me and scrolling websites so I hardly ever use it.

I've never used the mouse wheel. I've always set it to keys.

I simply use the mousewheel to control my stance (prone / crouch / stand).
If I hit it in the middle of a firefight... so what? I always pick weapons using the 1/2/3/4/5 buttons. (I use the middle finger to scroll. Ring or pinky on the R-mouse button.) --------------------   |
