I mean seriously, who moves their weapon down to reload like that(besides James Bond)? I want to see my character frantically reloading his weapon, when out of ammo. It would make the game more fun.

I think this might be implemented sometime after the new alien choppers.

Correct.

This is something we want to do. We just have other more important stuff we need to finish first.

haha now that I think about it, it might. Some reloads might be a tad fast considering what those hands have to do to change magazines.

I'm guessing the reason why the reloads are like this now is because there aren't any first person arms, am I right? And because the anims take a while to make of course.

And what is this I hear about alien choppers? I'm picturing dretches firing missiles out of an Apache :eek:

not really, have you ever tried reloading in wolf:et after getting lvl3 light weapons? it looks reasonable, but the reload is on the order of a second.

Can you imagine the uproar from the animal rights groups?! One glimpse of a cute little doggy getting chomped by a goon and...  How many BP are the kennels?  :wink:

Then again, if all the humans can reload like this guy can, these reloads are currently extremely innacurate.

No, he was talking about something the aliens would get, namely "choppers" teeth, claws, etc...

This is completly off topic. You've made me waste my time to check is those videos had any insight on the current subject :evil:
urphy's rules of combat
8 ) Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.
18 ) Make it too tough for the enemy to get in and you can't get out.
