Only in CO-OP , when you shoot a rocked - keep holding down the left mouse key until you get ammo from a rifleman, when you do - release the mouse and fire again straight away.

Also in Coop, rifleman has unlimited ammo bags to keep throwing, so its really unlimited everything. Its also Coop, for learning/practicing PR. Maybe its intentional?

ok, the first problem, idk about that maybe a glitch. The second one however is on purpose, never played Co-op? Theres lots of differences to let players practice and what not before they go development

Yeah. I guess its a bug... basically no reload of the H-AT.... though one could suggest that the riffleman is actually loading in a rocket when he's throwing that ammo down.

Seeing how one has to be stationary and close to an ammo source for about as long as the reload animation would be, this offers no advantage in Deployment and is merely a visual annoyance. I believe it to be hardcoded, too; this is just the way one-shot weapons work in BF2. This still remains an 'glitch' in co-op mode, but, like many possible abuses, this is due to the utterly imbalanced instant reload by the rifleman's ammo bag; which is an intentional feature as, indeed, co-op is a training mode first and foremost.
