How do you "fast reload"

[thedeadlyassassin]

I see people in the killcam shooting their weapon, having to reload... take the clip out of the gun, and then start shooting again.


How do you do this? I see nearly EVERYONE in my killcam doing it. I've never done it before.

You really need it with the shotgun and subs with small clip sizes

Perhaps not with proper clip management. Sure, you'll die from an empty clip here or there, but stopping power or doubletap ensures the enemy dies FIRST, so you can go reload in peace Sleight of Hand does no good when the enemy does you in first because his bullets hurt more or come at you faster.

Most SMGs reload pretty fast anyway (unlike SMGs :P)

Also remember Deadly, the killcam view is only approximately what the enemy saw, not exact. There is lag in the animations all the time, so it can look like people are doing things way out of sequence. I think it has to do somehow with the way the game renders the killcams (ie streamed from server or replayed via the local client machine) Not for sure though

Well, I don't mean to sound like a b*tch carb0n, but I see people shooting in the kill cam, rip out their clip, then all of a sudden start shooting staight again.

I've tried aiming and shooting while reloading, that doesn't work.

And there may be lag, but not this much. I've seen it happen while looking at my friends computer screen and he somehow did it on accident.

I'd just like to make it fair. I mean damn, I've died so many times making someone waste clips on me and when I see them about to reload they start shooting me somehow, and the kill cam shows them raise their gun, rip the clip out of the gun, and then somehow start shooting it again.


I'll TRY to record this. And no, it's not the sleight of hand perk. These people start out reloading at normal speed, but once they rip the clip out they start shooting, with no bullets in the gun

I have seen this too from time to time. I always complain about it to Minfootball, but he says the same thing about lag and whatnot. I'm with you though, Deadly, I think its something different.

Don't believe everything you see.

Is it possible they are using overkill and just switching weapons ?

[Devilguns]

It's probably slight of hand perk combined with some kind of packet loss. I get the same effect your seeing. I'll start to reload then I get attacked, instinctively I return fire but the magazine loading animation never finished or even started in some instances, but I have full ammo.

I'm 99% it's just a kill cam glitch.

I'm 99% it's just a kill cam glitch.

Probably a mix of sleight of hand perk + net lag + imperfect kill cam.

Anyone know what a tactical reload is? It's when u put in a new clip with a round in the chamber still so u dont have to manually load the first one.Thiss helps alot on guns like the m4,m16,g36,and bolt action rifles.

[Apache Warrior]

That requires you to keep track of how many rounds you have fired. In a tactical situation it is extremely difficult for most people to do.

Found the solution to my own problem...

Interesting catch Deadly. Until seeing that video, I had always just assumed it was killcam lag or something. But I've definitely had that happen to me. It's not a HUGE difference, but I have definitely seen the sudden snap from the reload animation to firing...
