If a game were made where each gun had 3 firing modes that were assigned to 3 different mouse buttons, do you think it will be tedious playing the game?

just speculation

Like burst, full auto and grenade (second barrel)?
I think it would be hard at first, but then easy once you got the hangovit.

maybe for a futuristic totally mod in soldat.
i don't think that more firemodes for mp5 or ak are fun to play, because it's not only unrealistic, but ANTIrealistic with them. but, as i told, for a totally mod it's a good idea, for example like the shock rifle modes in UT or a rocket launcher with grenades as secondary fire mode...

well, i guess so, but wouldn't the weapon be overpowered? i mean, on multiplayer, if weapons were l-ike that, wouldn't it waste the buttons? I mean, like melee, or throw nade, or other actions commonly found in games?

o: I have a five-button mouse so that would so cool to have grenade as one of them! The select-fire thing is okay, but it's very unfair for those like PS31. =3

i'll adjust movement, so that i move around with the arrow keys, and i'll use the X and Y angle in mouse as different key patterns.. that way i'll have unlimited firering options :P

I meant middle mouse button as an actual firing button... and although i don't believe it:

yeah...

What about attachments? Im thinking if a gun were to have an attachment (like nade launcher) it would have to sacrifice accuracy, and ammo count. So if the weaps were seperate, the nade launcher could have 8 nades maybe, but when attached, it would drop down to 4...
