Alt-Tab Death

I swear, I've been killed more often as a result of alt-tabbing by accident than for any other reason. Can we get an option to disable this, please?

    Am I really the only one who experiences this?

    Alt+Enter I can understand as the Alt key sometimes gets "stuck". Luckily it's possible to disable the Alt+Enter fullscreen toggle in the Keybinds tab. I can't say I've had any real issues hitting Alt+Tab on accident however.

    Alt-tab is windows level, so it may be difficult to disable, but you can try a keybind over alt+tab.

    Is it because you're frequently trying to hit Alt+1 for a power on the top row? I'd just change that bind if that's the case.

    I used to have this problem a lot from using an alt+whatever power, and then tab-targetting the next bad guy too quickly. The problem went away when I switched to a G13, but I feel for you.

    You might want to look into a macro program called Autohotkey, which will allow you to remap the alt+tab combo to something less dangerous while you play.

    Me I kinda do the capslock both to shift target and block.... so ai learnt pretty fast that I should get the mouse on that upper functions. (however, all the device and primary tools are not necessary usable by mere clicks)

    Unfortunately, after intensive PVP I started to develop a lot of change builds by mistakes.

    Despite of this, CO is one well developed game. But controler, mouse and keyboards have all their troubles sadly.

    It is very reccurent as for comments... I think almost everyone in this forum have or leaned to do bindings, or read and commented on the subject or initiated a tread on it.

    So it is not because no one wants to answer... it is just because... well... It is hard to come to a satisfactory awnser.
