Pistol drawing speed is just too slow
Anyone has the same feeling ? As a secondary, emergency weapon, the swapping speed to the pistol shoud be faster, eh ?

If you are using the quick draw holster, it is not too slow.

I think its just about right more or less. I think the devs made it so players arent suppose to face an enemy with an empty primary weapon and survive that by pulling out a pistol lightening fast. *Maybe* the drawing speed could use a *little* speed up but I dont think pistols should become a dumb proof weapon for players who dont load their guns properly

I just tried the quick draw holster out and it is more acceptable. Wondering why I've never notice that thing before. lol
Thanks for the comments

Its funny people complaining about this, it really shows how much CoD/Battlefield has created a false idea of how gunfighting works. The holstering speed are actually quite fast, and way too fast for the average person to do. Seeing as the guns in this game do not have slings, it gets into ridiculous/fantasy already

i think it is as well

I personally don't think its too fast for the average person, everyone can learn drawing this fast within 10-15 minutes. I guarantee.

Well, one of the reasons I made this post is just because I personally draw faster than the speed in the game. Not to show off (and there's nothing to show off about) but it's just where my feelings came from. Again, I admit that I didn't find there's a quick draw holster in the game and things do get closer to my expectation after I put the holster on.

If the guns in this game don't have a sling is a factor, then it'd be illogical already for the shooter in the game to hold the pistol with two hands, moving, and still being able to switch back to his rifle.

You do not draw faster than with the quick draw holster in real life. Not if you are wearing a full combat gear, a heavy kevlar vest, and also have to placehold your assault rifle at the same time. Stop punking us.

Being on range in a shirt and light clothing, I easily draw 5 times faster than what is being shown in game, but that's not necessarily a challenge.

^ Exactly this. People assume drawing with full combat gear in a combat situation will be as fast as light clothes at the range. From someone who works in that situation, this is NOT the case

Pretty sure I can draw a pistol in less than 2-3 seconds in gear... if I'm allowed to assume a sling. Rifle goes click, I'm going to *drop* the rifle on the sling, not slowly stow it in my backpack. lol
For reference here's one of the best in the business doin' it without plates:

It’s best to create a new thread if you come across a topic that is more than 6 months old.
