Why did they remove the ability to take cover?

[ph0ne (greatijedi)]

It seems the game's excuse for "cover" is to stare at a wall. All F does is play a repeat animation of running into cover, teleporting back a bit, and repeating.

cover works fine here

Quite untrue. It is impossible to move, shoot, look out of cover, or anything unless one stops the repeat animation by unpressing F.

sounds like your game is bugged. cover is pretty mucht the same as in human revolution

It works fine for me also, i know before you jump down during the tutorial everything repeats nonstop

Except I can move, shoot, look out of cover with no issues. The problem might be from your end buddy.

I'm in the tutorial right now. Taking cover causes instant failure via the repeating animation or auto-cancelling taking cover.

That is impossible. My keyboard is sufficiently debounced and the auto-cancelling of cover cannot be turned off.

So, it's a toggle. Press once to enter, press again to exit.
Or is there some other issue to hand that the rest of us in the conversation have failed to understand?

Using it as a toggle causes the camera to zoom out for approximately one second, then zoom back in, auto-cancelling the taking of cover.

I had some issues similar to this. I upluggle the XBox controller and it went away. Seems the game was taking input from both controller and keyboard.

[RabidChoco]

I've not encountered this issue, I'm afraid... Cover worked absolutely fine for me.

Cover works fine. You're just bugged.

[KiM!]

Cover is working as intended here.

Any way I can block this extra input? Only inputs going in are the keyboard and mouse; never used an XBOX controller in my life.

But this is an out-of-the box version.

Is there a cover toggle like in HR where you can press the cover button to take cover instead of holding the button down?
