One of the things you're going to find yourself doing a lot of is cycling through your gun inventory in certain situations.
These guns wreck the Hive. This gun can kill that Serventor faster. And where the hell is my rocket launcher that deals 88 over this garbage that deals 75. That Devil Walker isn't going to kill itself!!
So there you are fumbling around with the option button on the PS4 trying to select that one gun you need right now.
I was thinking that if we could use the touch pad as a extra preset that would come in handy for getting to those extra guns faster.
I'm not sure how it would fair for Xbox users but I wouldn't be surprised if MS released a controller in XBOX Ones future that could utilize a swipe or touch pad.
Put the console war aside I own a 360 and have been with Xbox since 2001. Just as a Console gamer in general the touchpad on a controler ...it's a nice feature.
And trust me being a level five on a Strike, you're going to want that gun fast.

In my opinion it's fine the way it is. I don't really switch between weapons like that, I just use one set gun for primary, secondary, and heavy. I haven't met anyone that has complained about not being able to switch between different guns faster like that. If they want to switch, they get to a safe place during the fight or wait until it's over and then switch.
