Can't switch weapons while primary is auto-reloading

(ProfPlump) #1

I play Vassili a lot and when I fire my MOA/FEL-IX I often want to immediately switch to my secondary to continue shooting. However, when I only have 1 bullet left in my MOA/FEL-IX magazine and I fire that bullet and THEN try to switch to my secondary, the game instead prevents me from switching for a moment due to my MOA/FEL-IX trying to automatically reload - you have to let it go through about half a second of reloading before you can switch.

It’s a real pain in the arse - can it get fixed please?

And yes, I could just turn off auto-reload, but in a fast paced game like this I much prefer to have as minimal wasted time as possibly between my last bullet being fired and my gun being reloaded.

Hm, haven’t experienced this. Keep in mind that tapping shift will kill the reload though, might help.

Might need to tap it while moving.

I switch to secondariness quite a lot, and I’ve never noticed this. Maybe only a thing with sniper rifles?

I think for that to work you have to have ‘sprint cancels reload’ turned on, which I don’t - otherwise when I’m using a Proxy with Double Time (allows you to reload while sprinting) it still causes you to stop reloading when you start to sprint, even though you have the augment which should allow it.

You need to sprint and then reload, its kinda annoying and I wish they do something about it but that sprint cancels reload thing is very important so you will cancel reload animation but still re fill you gun.
