autoreload option?

(s3r4phic) #1

Sorry if this is elsewhere I did try to search for it and didnt find a match just wondering I have been looking for an autoreload option and there doesnt seem to be one. If possible I always set this to no. Am I overlooking it or is it not an optoin at this point?

I think many players would appreciate this option.

Is it the autoreload that is the problem or the fact it makes it harder to switch to the other weapons?

peronally I want to go to my pistol in a 1v1 battle when I run out of ammo not reload so I dont like the delay it creates when switching in that circumstance but I wouldnt want to say it shouldnt autoreload as some players may enjoy that function, I would like to turn it off =)

Autoreload causes a bunch of problems with weapon swapping. I’ll swap weapons 3 times because it goofs up when I try to swap to another weapon when autoreload activates.

An option in game would be great for this, and along with that a var/cvar would be a great addition to Config files to specify it.

AKA:
When I am on my main-hand weapon, I can tell my configuration to turn auto-reload off.
When I am on my pistol, it turns auto-reload is turned on.

Make the game as open to possibilities as possible and competitive players will love it!

Simple switch would be nice … I really hate auto reload. I still reload manually all my guns when I feel I have a few seconds to do it safely

Autoreload to next clip, when is available, and quick auto change to second weapon when no more clips, cvar controlled would be appreciated.

totally agree, I wish the same thing.

Just make a check box in the ingame menu to switch auto reload on/off. Thats fine I think :slight_smile:

I think that would be fine for any generic game, but for Dirty Bomb to exceed the expectations of hardcore players and have more advanced control by means of your config and binds can add a whole new level for competitive players.

This can be as simple as the example I posted about above, and also could go beyond that.

Say I want my config to perform the following:

When I choose to snipe I want my mouse sensitivity/FOV to be different with sniper rifle than when I am using a SMG/Pistol.
When on field ops class I want to be able to “say_team” with my location on map “dropping ammo here” when I throw out ammo packs, then when I am on medic I want it to say “dropping med packs here” etc.
Switching classes, it can switch my class and notify my team with the same bind that I am changing.

Small things like this being possible in a config can go far.

being able to turn auto reload on/off is a must

I’d prefer to turn it off, so +1 to making it an option.

What about adding an option for autoswitch? (Change weapon when clip is empty)

(s3r4phic) #15

as long as it could be controlled via config files might be interesting

(Rex) #16

That’s a really good point.

Seems strange to ask for this, sounds legit since wolf ET.
So please yes ! we need it !

I think auto switch makes sense (switch when completely out of ammo for a weapon), actually it seems silly that you would pressume people would want to not switch from a weapon with 0 bullets…

(chrawr) #19

I’m with Apoc, I’m a fan of it but only when the gun is completely out of ammo, not every clip.

my autoswitch in ET was always off! because sometimes it can be frustrating if you want to take ur medpacks and ur gun is switching or something! there just should be an option for both, autoswitch & autoreload ! let client choose whetever they want it or not. Both options like in ET
