Does anyone else think the Bolt-action snipers feel mushy?


(grandi) #1

Here’s the deal: when you shoot a bolt action snipers, you can’t instantly swap away to your sidearm/melee weapon.

I get that the gun needs to be reloaded before it’s next shot, but can’t my character do that when it pulls the weapon out next time?

I feel like I’m often stuck on the bolt-lock reload animation or something else right after the shot.
I would like it to be like in CS’s where you can swap weapons instantly after shooting, is this possible?

Why should there be an artificial drawback? Isn’t mandatory reloading enough of a drawback?
Swapping away instantly after the shot gives no additional advantage gunplay wise, it just enables you to keep on moving more fluently. Shoot, reposition, shoot. Now it’s shoot, wait for the crippling animation, perform your next task.
