Title: Special reload
Post by: Brewtal Legend on December 10, 2006, 16:23
What does the special reload function do exactly? What weapons use it? How do I know if I found a special weapon like a fastload chaingun or shotgun for example. Do the combat shotguns show up less often in the new version? it seems like they do.

I believe that the special reload function (if available) shortens the ammount of time in which you have to reload.
A "special" weapon have a different color, yellow if i'm not totaly mistaken and it is named like fastload chaingun if that is what you'be found.
And no, the Combat Shotgun does NOT show up less often, i believe you've had more bad luck if anything ;)

Special reload completely reloads Combat Shotgun (not +1 ammo simple reload gives), over-charges energy weapon and

My guess is that it takes less time to reload one shell than two ;-)

I've used that to shoot barrels with a double shotgun, using one shell instead of two.
