<div class="IPBDescription">(reposted from getsatisfaction)</div>Anyone else find themselves still trying to fire an empty gun in close combat ?
Happens to me all the time, trying to kill critters, finger on the fire button, and not realising i've run out of ammo (it seems to run out awful quickly when you're chasing aliens around a room !)
- so all you're effectively doing is running around trying to poke the aliens with a pointy stick... skulks tend to get a bit tetchy when you try to take their temperature with an anal rifle probe :-}
It might be a nice touch if the marine could "swear" and reload automatically if you've still got your finger on the fire button while empty (which is pretty much always when you need it most !) :-}

You can hold down the LMB and unload all of your LMG mags or entire 40 shotgun shots. You have to release the button on each shot for the pistol, but if you try to shoot an empty mag then it will reload for you instead.
