Wtf, why cant reload while running?

[ELX-Sevazinho☄]

I know, the game purpose is multiplayer, but when we cant find anybody this is almost certain death while reloading. Please change this thing!

[Nihil]

Because this isn't CoD

I reload the primary just fine when running. You're not gonna reload a heavy weapon when running though.

Because Helldivers is about strategizing and planning not run and gun combat.

The only weapons sofar I haven't been able to run and reload are the support machine gun and the recoiless rifle. Probably more but quite afew others I can.

Seems to depend on the heavy weapon. The flamethrower can be reloaded while moving.

You can reload most weapons while running so...

And how you kill a tank enemy being alone without using stratagem? I need 2-3 entire magazines to kill them

Certain weapons. Like the anti-material rifle can take out those bugs with the fat thoraxes in about 3-4 hits. Unlocking better resources for solo play might be your priority if you're a solo player, but this isn't really meant for solo. It's meant to be played with a team. Join SOS missions or use your SOS beacon during the mission to open your game to the public.

Very good stupid answer. Now how i can kill them under level 10 without dying and playing alone? I only have the first machine gun

You can bait them into running into walls and mountains which staggers them. Its rather easy to just run around them they dont have a good turning speed. There weakpoint is the glowy bits, if you have a laser weapon you can strip there armor as well. If you are playing solo you should try running scout you can play a more stealthy style and avoid most fights besides the objective also things like smokescreen can help as well. The enemy ai is rather decent and you can play a hit and run stealth style if need be.

So use 2-3 magazines... wtf?
Just shoot. Use them. And when you're done call in a resupply and get those 2-3 magazines back, wtf is the issue???

And I'm level 7, almost exclusively solo and have 4 primaries, 2 secondaries, and 5 strategems unlocked already; you unlock ♥♥♥♥ really quickly if you just play. (you don't even have to win, you get exp for failing)

I am honestly starting to wonder if people don't know the progression of this game is mainly through the battlepass and ship management screen.

I'm still trying to figure out why 2-3 magazines is an issue when we have infinite resupplies
(because those don't even require progression, so they don't even have to figure that out)

That might be a major contributor to people having issues. It's not like there's a proper explanation of that in the game at the moment. That, on top of people generally being the problem (I'll just ignore the tutorial and all UI hints, it'll be fine!) may be a big source of this.

Small and Medium Sized Weapons can be reloaded running, Big Weapons cant be reloaded while moving, but many can be assited in reloading making the reloading lightning fast.
