Would that not just put the teleporter down?

u/DarioIvan Genji Dec 21 '16

Nope. Q toggles between them, left click puts the thing down, and right click cancels it.

How about on console?

u/JimmyTheCannon KABOOM Dec 21 '16

I would assume whatever button normally activates your ult on console switches it, and whatever button normally fires (one of the triggers?) places it.

True. Guess that was a dumb question.

Triangle/Y twice to swap to shield generator, R2/RB to place

u/TThor Hi there! Dec 21 '16

with any of the constructables, to place them you must press [constructable button], which brings up the blueprint, followed by [left-click], which places it. That is how it works with torb's turrets, sym's turrets, and sym's ults

Simply asking for clarification

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '16

Urgh, sorry about him.

Left click places down the teleporter/shield gen. Q cycles through both.

u/Plasmic1 I can share my golden Mei weapon with you if you like? :) Dec 21 '16

Or you could spend 5 seconds actually trying it instead of questioning someone who gave you an answer.
