Weapons swapping/ reloading BUG?

[jtaylor808]

This is a huge waste of time when your playing the game. (Team mode selected)Sometimes your team can change weapons in unison, and reload as well, but other times only the one character does it. Its a real drag and burden to the gameplay to have to check each character's weapons to assure they are loaded. Pressing load weapon when not in Encounter mode SHOULD load every and all equiped weapons!!!! Geez... And your releasing this month???

You need to have everyone selected to reload at the same time. Group select is toggled with spacebar.

Have you actually tried this? I'm currently playing the most recent beta and this does not work consistantly. You can obviously see that the weapons are not being switched, let alone both sets being reloaded. Group weapon switching is not working correctly.

I double checked right now and it's working for me. I selected everyone with spacebar and pressed X over and over, they switched weapons with every press of the button.

I have had the same issue (quite often actually).

It could be because group selection is off, but I did select everybody by draging a square on screen. So every party member is selected, but only 1 reloads/switches weapon (when this happens it is also without any animation).
Reselecting and/or sometimes moving around does resolve this issue.

I try to avoid weapon swapping. I always get confused and end up having to check everyones weapons again one at a time anyway. Maybe it is bugged but whatever the reason anytime I have used it I never seem to get it right. I had assumed it was me.

Maybe I am selecting the group wrong. I have been using the single/group button on the left of the screen. I have used the box select when I want to use just a few members, but can't recall if reloading works for the selected group. I will try that. I have never used the space bar. I'll try that too, thanks!

If you have been updating and have not deleted the entire game and redownloaded from scratch you may have some bad files.. and you cannot use old saves with a new patch...

I have no issues at all with group reloading after a fight, they all reload together. No issues with the group swapping to the other weapon all together either.

It sounds like your not selecting your entire team or have other issues all together. Coming here attacking the developer instead of posing a question regarding your issue is also not the best way to get helpful responses.

It happens a lot actually. I will try to delete the game and reload it. I did open an old save with the new patch!!!

I am still having problems with the weapon reloading/swapping. I have tried spacebar and using mouse and curser to select, but still get the same NON-CONSISTANT swapping and reloading. With combat one of the most important parts of the game, this should have been settled years ago! It takes me out of the game so much, similarly to team movement/ placement prior to encounters, and lack of any basic formations, that it almost makes the game unplayable.

I get how many people "enjoy" micromanaging their squad down to what color shoes they wear. Great! I'm all for that kind of depth. But, the developer WASTING time making a Gorilla suit?, instead of fixing one of the most fundamental parts of the game is absolutely criminal (IMO).

I guess I expected this stuff to have been ironed out by now.
