Shotgun reloading??

[LegaCy]

Howd you reload the shotgun fast instead of this horrible process of dragging ne shell at a time?

[Smokey]

I would try adding the ammo to the hotbar and see if that works

[LegaCy]

Tried, doesnt do anything, amazing this game is still in the state it is after all this time

[Smokey]

So you've done:
Hold shotgun in hands
Press and hold the button you assigned the ammo to ??

I'm yet to try a quicker way than drag and drop so it's just a guess from me at the moment

[SephirothVII7]

I'm ok with drag and drop.
I mean, if
I try to reload a weapon in real life, I'm sure I will be slower than that

If you focus your playtime in gunfighting and PvP, then I assume it will be very annoying.

How many shells can your shotgun hold? Maybe you can try with a gun with a Mag, so you don't have to put the bullet in chamber every time. I'm pretty sure changing mags from hotbar is possible.

All you have to do is hotkey the ammo and hold down that button while you have your shotty equipped.

I shot a guy in the face and he had a "nosebleed" lmao. Dude killed me right after that because I was weak from a previous mosin shot. So we trade and my slug headshot = nosebleed


but at least we can't see anything at night because "realism"!

fill up the shot gun by keep dragging shells to the shotgun untill it's full. and then after each shot you reload by pressing "R"

Yeah game feels like a lie. It has this theme of realism. And then wenn you shoot someone with a shotgun, it has no stopping power at all. That's a lie. I can bare the clunky ness when the realism is the overall theme. But a shotgun having no stoppingpower feels like a lie.

I'm done with this game for now. Maybe next year.

You realise nothing is properly balanced yet? That shotgun damage (especially from slug ammo) is too low is a known issue, but right now devs are focusing on fixing more serious bugs such as no gun sounds (fixed on experimental), stuck attachments (fixed on experimental) and base persistence. Balancing is next up once these things are out of the way, devs simply cannot do everything at once. Nor should they even try, to be fair, it is a recipe for disaster.

As for reloading, as others have said you just put the ammo on the hotbar and then press and hold the key to keep feeding shells into the weapon, applies to any weapon with internal magazine.

Just to clarify. The hotbar/ quicbar represents the players pockets. That's why it goes up with certain clothing. Placing in the hotbar represents placing in your pocket for quick access.
That's why it makes loading faster and why the animation seemingly takes ammo from the side pocket.
