Left Trigger: Armour Ability <-Easier Jetpack shooting. (Suggested by Marrrrrrrrk)
Right Trigger: Use Weapon
Left Bumper: Jump
Right Bumper: Grenade

Left Analog: Movement, Click to Teabag
Right Analog: Aim, Click to Zoom

Y: Swap Weapon
B: Action/Reload
A: Melee Attack <- Fastest button to press.
X: Switch Grenade

Basically the same as Bumper Jumper. Just enhanced, because having Armour Ability on [X] is a terrible Idea. You wont be able to look around while Jet-packing or using the Armour Lock, which totally just sucks.

This scheme also removes the need for Clawing, which many people, including me would very much prefer not to do.

You are so sexy Urk.

============================================================= ================

jiggerstick have also proposed a really superb set up here. (Thank you for your contribution) However the problem I have with that set up is that [B] isn't exactly the most logical button for melee. My suggestion would be moving it to [A], since it's way faster to press.

Agreed! That scheme actually makes sense! Unlike the current ones Bungie have released.. I'd love to hear an explanation for why each button does what on theirs!

Either make this great layout available!
Or make a custom setup!

I think making the X button Action/ Reload would be better than B because once again it is closer to your analog. And make changing grenades the B. Because its the lease used and farthest away from analog.

Crazed Yet Sane

What I think is that we should be able to assign each button to what action we want it to be. That, to me, would be so much better.

I just want one like default with X and B switched - many people are used to B for action/reload and X isn't used much in any scheme.

"How do you kill that which has no life?"

im more a fan of (in parentheses is an alternate id be ok with):
RT: Fire
LT: Grenade
RB: Jump
LB: Equipment
A: Switch Grenades
B: Melee
X: Reload
Y: Switch Weapons
the 2 joystick clicks dont change

Take it easy.

Here's my preferred variation on a new Bumper Jumper scheme:

RT - Fire
RB - Grenade
LT - Armor Ability
LB - Jump

A - Switch Grenades
B - Melee
X - Reload/Action
Y - Switch Weapons

The Logic: All your movement related stuff is done with the left hand, all the aiming/attacking stuff is done with the right hand.

I hope Bungie considers this as well.

I'm really worried about this too cause I've used bumper jumper for well over a year now and now I have to decide between jumping or armor ability I really dont want to have to make this decision

  • 04.29.2010 12:38 AM PDT
  • reply edit unleash ninjas

There needs to be a layout like:

A - Switch Grenade
B - Melee/Assassinate
X - Reload/Pickup
Y - Switch Weapon
LB - Jump
RB - Armor Ability
LT - Grenade
RT - Shoot
LS - Crouch/Move
RS - Zoom/Aim


That's the ideal layout for me, I've seen some other suggested ideas that could work for other people, but this is the one I want to see the most.

same as mine if you switch rb and lb. question, do you know if you hold armor abilities down or toggle. toggle could change my opinion to your recommendation
