taiiat Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 it's like many other things in the game, like Energy, Ammo, Et Cetera. these are limitations that are put there with the general intention that you're often going to use some of the Gear you acquire to affect these things. by how much or in what way is a part of your playstyle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merkranire Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) Sometimes you can get caught mid-reload by a situation that needs to be resolved faster than your reload would allow, and thus you’re forced into considering alternatives that were brought that might have a better impact than waiting for a reload to finish. Often happens when things get pretty down-to-the-wire where a fight can be determined by how long a reload takes Reload and the ways we can modify it is one of those attributes that can turn a weapon from being part of a kit into being a main source of damage with minor hiccups in the way Edited March 1 by Merkranire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexerin Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Reloading definitely serves a purpose, and absolutely should exist. However, what could be debated at this point, is whether reserve ammo needs to be a thing. For radial weapons, there definitely needs to be a limiting factor so that players can't just spam radial everywhere. Whether they continue to have ammo reserves, or they get some kind of cooldown mechanic between shots, or something else entirely. There's a ton of ways this could be handled, and you could create differentiation between radial weapons by using different systems (more gameplay variety, huzzah!). However, for normal weapons, ammo reserves serve very little (if any) purpose in the modern game. Especially for weapons that have alternative modes that don't consume the primary source of ammo (incarnons being the obvious thing here). I feel like reserve ammo could just be done away with entirely. It's extremely rare for a player to run out of ammo, so this would just remove those rare situations and the total gameplay downer moment they create. What to do with battery weapons then, you may ask? Well, in my opinion, battery weapons should be innately stronger than ammo weapons. They have slower resupply back to the "magazine", and their magazines are generally significantly smaller, so they should get more from each magazine. As things stand, most battery weapons already are stronger, with a few unfortunate outliers existing that could be easily given a buff (like Basmu, for example). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find Reload is a valuable tool when I want to reload something, but somewhat overrated. For instance, even if I hold the reload button down really hard, or hammer on it 20 times, it barely reloads my Ripkas at all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schilds Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) Reloading is OP. Throws the balance of the game right off. When other players reload in my game it completely ruins my experience. Please nerf. Edited March 1 by schilds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm having a good time deleting entire maps and speeding up this game's horrific grind for my squadmates with the reload on my Buzlok, why is that a bad thing?

BansheeAndZephyrMarried Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) No?? Also have you seen some of these guns' reload animations and SFX? Reload is what completes these fictional guns as pieces of art. Empty a stock Corinth magazine, reload and tell me it would feel complete without the sounds and reload time. But if you don't like reloading like a normal shooter, there are mods for that.

Voltage Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 If we didn't have reload, some weapons like Corinth or Euphona Prime would lose much of their character. Asking this feels very strange. It's like asking why sprint requires a keybind. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schilds Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) See, when you include reload in a game it attracts reload enjoyers. Do we really want a community full of people like this? Feels like Warframe is going down a dangerous path. Edited March 1 by schilds 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aevire Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Reload makes guns work different from other guns. Gun with large magazine and long reload vs. gun with small magazine and short reload can have the same theoretical dps but have completely different rhythms. Why would we remove the things from gear that make them interesting and unique? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoa, whoa there. This is a den of that aggressively virulent gamer sub-culture, the white knights of reloading. Heck, it's practically reload central. Are you sure you want to put yourself front and centre for retaliation like that? You're a brave one. See what I mean. Straight away you're been forced to endure some outrageous serenade to reloading. What a vicious assault on the senses. 7 minutes ago, ReddyDisco said: Yes, i get to see the beautiful trumna reload animation Edited March 1 by schilds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
