BF1 - Please allow CONSOLE key to be disabled!

This is a really annoying feature that is missing in BF4, and I hope that BF1 will have an option to disable the console key. It would be even more important to have it in BF1, since I hear that there’s more skill and manual maneuvering required (hence, more keys/clicks per minute)

Is there any word on the console button?

Thanks in advance!

If you have a decent keyboard, just remove the key

You want to remove consoles from BF1?

They deserve every right to play this game too, ya know.

?

I don’t know if this is a joke, lol.

No, not consoles such as XBox or PS. For PC, the tilde key opens a console screen, which, when activated, prevents you from playing in-game until you press the console key again. Since this key is right above the tab button, it frequently gets pressed.

I have a mechanical gaming keyboard, so removing the tilde key is not an option, because it’s more than a decent keyboard. Third party key disabling softwares don’t work in-game. The tilde key isn’t allowed to bind to some other obscure, unused/under-utilized action. Save for physically removing the key, there’s no other option in BF4, as you may already know. I hope it’s able to be disabled in BF1 (applies only to PC, of course).

he was just talking about using your keyboard’s software to remove it.

it works for me with My microsoft sidewinder’s software. sucks it doesnt work for you.

I have a mechanical keyboard, and my keycaps come off.

Kinda silly that the console can even open during online play…

The only thing I can think of would be to enable frame rate displays and such
