Hi guys! So for those of you that don’t know, Mercy’s rez button is the same as her “angelic decent”/glide button on ps4 (L2) and that is, to say the least, problematic. Many a time, especially lately, have i been floating or trying to fly away, but a teammate died near me just a second before i hit the flight button mid glide and since i was already holding the glide button it thought i wanted to rez my teammate who just died, thus putting me in the sticky situation where im stuck trying to rez and ofc getting killed as well and also respawning w.o my rez ability! It’s so annoying! (I don’t play comp anymore so it doesn’t exactly “cost me matches” but regardless it’s irritating)
When mercy 2.0 was originally changed i wanted to know how to fix this problem but there was no solution unless i wanted to take angelic decent out entirely, which obviously i did not because it’s an important part of mercy’s mobility.
I figured that maybe it would get patched later on and i could change it in the next patch or so. Nope. It’s been a very long time since mercy 2.0 has come about and well…nope. doesn’t even appear to be on blizz’s radar! I know that blizz does not care for us console players but i would think they would at the very least pay attention to how their beloved angel plays across platforms!
(Tldr?) Now since I’ve been thinking of playing comp again, which inevitably means that i will have to play her when no one wants to heal and will be fast to throw if i even think about ana, i figured i would ask to see if anyone knew how to fix these buttons so i can have rez separate from glide (without taking glide away completely) so i don’t have to be stuck trying to rez someone who died near me and end up dying too all because i was simply staying in the air as i should be. Or is it still just impossible and ps4 mercy players are just s.o.l in those situtions
