Game Forum / Action Games / Half Life / November 2004Reloading weapons observations
Just a few quick and disappointing observations- Weapons automatically reload when you stop using them, (unless you quickload the Gravity Gun) The RPG and Crossbow has no reload sequence at all. The pistol has no 'clip-in' wav. I hope they will eventually patch this. It kinda retracts from the realism. > I hope they will eventually patch this. It kinda retracts from the > realism.

Oooops... Day = Say! :) > Just a few quick and disappointing observations- > > Weapons automatically reload when you stop using them, (unless you > quickload the Gravity Gun) No they don't. They only reload automatically when they run out of ammo in the current clip. If there is still ammo in the clip and you stop firing, the weapons do NOT reload automatically... >> Just a few quick and disappointing observations- >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > in the current clip.

I believe he means when you change weapons. e.g.: You are using the shotgun and get it down to one cartridge. You then switch to the .357 magnum without re-loading the shotgun. Assuming you are carrying enough cartridges, the next time you switch to the shotgun, it will be reloaded...

Oh, I gottcha. The original poster was not specific... >> Just a few quick and disappointing observations- >> Weapons automatically reload when you stop using them, (unless you >> quickload the Gravity Gun) >No they don't.

I'm willing to bet a year's salary that I can get a weapon to reload without emptying the clip, without cheatcodes, and without moving Gordon as much as an inch. In other words, you're wrong. Though I believe the previous poster is as well. I don't think just leaving a weapon idle will do it. But I know for sure that if you switch to another weapon and reload that, all weapons are automatically reloaded at the same time. I remember wondering why Valve decided to do it that way. Oh, I miss some reload animations and sounds as well. I love a nice meaty reload anim/soundeffect and cycling through weapons to reload during a quiet time is something I missed doing (tis just how I am). - -- Frode |
