magazine drop after reload?

only a small suggestion... it would be kinda nice if soldiers that reload their weapon drop a magazine on the ground that would just stay there for a minute or so... like the cartridge cases.. i would also like if they would stay longer on the ground so you can figure out where the enemy has just been.. especially as recon squad wich sneaks arround behind enemy lines this would be very useful i think

Can't source it, but I think it's been said by MAs that irl you'd put your magazines back into your pouches (unless you've got to do a speed reload or something). Would be a bit of a waste of magazines otherwise.

yes, i agree with you

and also the bullets when u shoot, the shells (idk how its called) fall on the ground and stay there for only 3 seconds or so, and disappear

i think its done like that because of the networkables...
anyways

IRL soldiers have a dump-pouch for their empty magazines. Otherwise they could not switch that fast, because all their mag pouches is full. So you would have to take out a full mag, then take the empty out, put it in the pouch, and at last put in full mag. Or something similar but still awkward.

And this isn't the sub-forum for it.

Exactly. Locking this for being a suggestion outside the suggestion forum.

(and no, we won't be dropping magazines)

Due to this not being the first time, I'll make this clear:
Blackburn, please re-read the forum rules regarding suggestions. Only post them in the suggestions forum and wait for them to be approved, we'd prefer not to have them anywhere else, they'll just end up locked that way.
