I attend grammar school, last grade, and ignorance is all around me. Well, good for them. Ignorance is bliss.
No. If anything, crouching should decrease self bink.Does it? I dunno.
ye with some guys it would be too overpowered, and if all the guns were to have different values, then the weapon balance would be even harder to try and makebut if it were just the law then it's ok because it would make it a little more worthwhileimagine this with the hkmp5, then you just crouch for like a split second and it's reloaded lol
actually people don't use colliders because of nades and stuff, who needs height advantage when you can shoot them without them being able to shoot you
It sounds good on paper, but what happens when you crouch at the start of the reload but have to stand up midway? It doesn't seem to me that although it can be said that it is balanced in theory, it might not be so when it is actually implemented.
Maybe just larger guns should have the increased reload:Ak-74, Styr-AUG, Minimi, Minigun, and LawPistols, mp5, ruger, m79 etc are fast reloaders anyway,

Crouching is fine the way it is.
crouching is not often done in soldat, you spend most of your time in the air, and when you are on the ground, you are most likely getting killed. Crouching isn't usually a good idea, because grenades do a fair bit more damage to you when you are crouched, it does have the feature of less bink, but still, only snipers do that to ensure a strait shot.

You're saying that crouching isn't used much because people are usually airborne, and that staying on the ground gets you killed, nade damage, etc.
To promote crouching and staying low,
reloading faster while you are vulnerable increases the distinction between in-battle reloading and out-of-battle reloading. the latter should be faster.
Besides, there are maps where this would give a very unfair advantage *cough*Abel*cough* to certain teams. When you take into consideration the protection you get from the colliders (yes, people do use them) and the reduced bink, it would just be another reason for people to groan.

Try to image those MP5 users proned with 3 times faster reload, it would be like unlimited ammo :S
And I bet that MM would make a bug that makes the "reload time" faster for SG(stationary guns)

[offtopic] Pretty sure it does, though not as much as prone. [/offtopic]I think it'd be an okay idea, though maybe the change shouldn't be so drastic as 1.5 times faster. 1.2-3 would be good, though. Plus, unlike most suggestions, it's completely balanced. Which is good.

Ruger reload is long, the only short reloads are chainsaw, fist, knife, mp5
How is the ruger reload long?
Last year, I dreamt I was pissing at a restroom, but I missed the urinal and my penis exploded.
Wow, old topic from back in 2007.Interesting idea, crouching makes you reload faster. I like that. I've always found the crouch not very useful except to hide yourself, reduce bink and increase accuracy, but proning always does a lot better.This idea is great for slow-reloading weapons, but the idea can backfire depending on which weapon. Some guns already reload extremely quickly (Socom, DEs, MP5, Steyr Aug, Spas for instance), so there isn't really a need for them to get an increase in reload speed, even if it is just a small difference.The idea may backfire when it comes to the M79. If the M79 reloads faster than 3 seconds, it's considered overpowered.As for the Barrett, the reload time is NOT the same as the fireinterval. Crouching would only help you load back your 10 ammo (which takes extremely long), so I support that. The idea also works well for the AK, Minimi, Minigun and the LAW.Quote from: muzikman on January 24, 2009, 07:32:16 pmHow is the ruger reload long?Ruger's reload is 100 reload + 40 fireinterval. It's relatively decent-fast.
This is one idea I love, but I will have to say no to. Campers would have the biggest upperhand.
Right now it feels better to throw the damn thing away after firing the missile.
I dont know about reloading deagles in a split second though.
I'm more for putting each increase as its own value in weapons.ini instead of being a hardcoded universal value. Downside: a lot of WM mods will have to be redone to accommodate.
Quote from: Espadon on February 05, 2009, 08:13:36 pmDownside: a lot of WM mods will have to be redone to accommodate.Not really. All you need to do is to is add the line and value like "CrouchReload=0", just like how you added a "Recoil=0" into old weapon mods when the recoil was first made modifiable in Soldat.

^^camping with an short range weapon?... does that work for u?
