Mouse wheel weapon switching.

Currently, you actually can set the weapon advance to mouse wheel, but you can only set it to mouse wheel up, or MW down. We should just make is so that if you scroll up, it advances backward, and vice versa (it means "the other way around", for you n00bs out there).

I thought the mouse wheel did cycle the weapon, but I see it doesn't. I agree, it should. And it will!

Just like TF2 and Star Wars Battlefront 2. No point in zooming in or out, in this game, so I agree with you. Switching weapons with mouse wheel would be a nice option.

Unlike TF2 and Star Wars Battlefront 2, Bitfighter is a 2D, not 3D.

Your statement leads to no argument, just to help you understand. Since, Bitfighter is 2D, there's no point in zooming in or out (I said on previous post); therefore, having the mouse scroll have the function of switching weapons will not have any or very few downfalls. Right now, the mouse scroll does nothing in the game.

I think Cleverbot was suggesting that using the mouse wheel to switch weapons was similar to the other games.
