Ammunition Management
I read that in the previous update the devs made it possible to combine magazines, but there are no instructions anywhere on how to actually do this, no keybind for it, no tutorial, nothing. Could someone explain how to do it please, as I've failed more than a few missions because I've had 4 mags with 3 rounds each. Also, is it possible to pick up ammunition from enemy weapons when you secure them? It seems really odd that I'm stuck with a pistol while I'm literally wading through AK mags that I could be using instead.

In Co-Op, you can refill 2 mags by picking up weapons, but ONLY if you're down to less than 3 mags. You HAVE to drop your empty magazines by double tapping R for this to work.

Its kinda unclear to me too but I know you can switch weapons with Caps Lock key on dead bodies. PVP

I just tried this now, both before and after securing their weapons and I get no prompt or options to swap weapons or magazines. I'm starting to think this is a bug so I'll probably just file a report to let the devs know.

From what I've read this is in PVP mode only (it's definitely not in PvE) and you can only switch weapons when you're the defender. Attackers apparently can't do that.

Okay finally I get an answer, thank you! I thought that might be the case but I only ever tried dropping one mag to test it, Thanks for the explanation!

L alt and H will allow you to cross level magazines in co-op/PVE modes so you can at least have a closer to full magazine again.
