Thread: Key reloads

  1. #1

    Key reloads

    Why not make it so you have to press certain keys in order when you reload your rifle, so you're more active and not just waiting, and if you mess up a key, you'll drop the percussion cap, or the minie ball will fall off the muzzle, etc, and ultimately making you have to drill and practice. Maybe servers could turn this off and on, too. This could also convert over to your multiple reloads system based on experience, and the keys could either be different, or easier based on your experience.

    As cool as that would be I'd much rather just sit back and let it reload. Mashing keys would get confusing and a line of Veterans could destroy a line of green players. I think it should stay the way it is but the chance of misfiring increases the more you fire your rifle.

    I am sorry for saying it's such a bad idea but think of the amount of people that would rage quit because of it. The shooting needs to be balanced and fair and I'm sure the Devs are trying their hardest to make it so.

    In theory that would be a cool idea, and very historically correct. Those guys botched their reloads all the time, especially early in the war. But I don't think many would go for it.

I'm personally in favor of just faster reloading speeds based on your character's experience. Notice I said character.

    In reality its not a terrible idea, and its not like it hasn't been discussed before, so everyone ease up just a tad
