Ammo check

I have a suggestion.
I always reload my gun, because I never know how much ammo I have in the clip, so I was wondering, would it be possible to add a function so that you can take off the clip and see how many bullets you got left?

it would be cool to have a "mag feels full/mag feels half empty/mag feels empty" check, but im guess its hardcoded

Everytime I hear the word hardcoded I want to throw a brick through the windows of the EA office a few blocks from my house.

Pretty sure this has been talked about before.

Anyways, if you find yourself constantly needing to reload, then you're probably firing a lot of bullets in a short time, so when your using single shot, just try to remember how many shots you've taken.

Nope, I only shoot when I have a target, and usually on single shot 1-3 shot kill.
I just have the fear that I might run out of that extra bullet on a great opportunity.

The mag isn't half empty, it's half full!

I personally don't think this is needed too badly, although it might be nice. With a good squad that has a rifleman you really don't need to worry about constant reloading (of course, that's coming from the person who actually plays rifleman alot of the time)

Do like the Insurgents! Use Molotovs instead! Go ahead. You know you want to. No one will tell. Go on, go on. :razz:

When you do it, make sure to write your name on it. Then when they track you down get mad at them and yell "YOUR WINDOW SCRATCHED MY BRICK!"

I don't think it's needed, two or three bullets left doesn't really change the weight of the weapon or mag that much, and thats when you need to know whether you need to reload or not.. when you can't be sure whether you have enough to take down that mad rambo who's about to come running around the corner out of nowhere. :(

LMAO I live for quotes like this. You made my sig lol. Seriously, a brick is for pussies, use a car.


Anyway, I have this problem with ammo too and find myself running outa ammo a lot. A feture like this would be nice.

count your bullets as you fire.
