More realistic weapon magazine reloading

[maximilionus 0]

Hey survivors, devs and other! Today want to talk with you about more realistic weapon magazine reloading. Im playing DayZ Standalone for a long time, so reloading weapon magazime was always easy: just drag bullets at mag and press LMB. So how about more realistic mag reloading? In word "realistic" i mean that mag firstly need to be in hands and then you can drag bullets at him and mag reloading animation will be played.

It's already confirmed.

[...] feeding a magazine will be a continuous action, the same as feeding the internal magazine of a gun which takes some time, one by one cartridge loading as long as you perform that feeding action which leads to a much more believable tension with planning ahead and tactical approach instead of that game where the fastest fingers win the crucial situations. At the end of the day the advantage of magazines lays in how many rounds you can fire with the current set without manipulating too much with the weapon or magazine instead of making nearly endless stream of fire with juggling with just two mags and ammo piles. (Keep in mind, we aren't going for 1:1 realism - obviously in a video game, round by round loading will be a bit faster than in real life).
