Pistol Slide, Shotgun Pump Action, Rifle Slide

In reality, when you first take out your rifle you normaly put the magazine in and use the slide to seat the round then its ready to fire and you dont need to use the slide again if you emptied your magazine.For example I usualy use 29 out of 30 rounds to reload faster in most of the games also tried in reality.Since you have 1 round in the barrel you dont need to use the slide when realoding and plus now you have 31 rounds to shoot. So im just thinking ns2 needs something like this. For instance try to switch to your handgun what you'll see first pistol slide action then its ready to fire change weapon and go back to pistol again it slides again which will never happen if its the same weapon. Its same for the rifle and shotgun too im thinking this needs a fix.

    Don't know if you ever used a real gun. If you empty a mag your barel gets locked, then you put the mag in and you push a button, then your gun is ready to fire again. You don't really lose alot of time if you empty your gun.

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->A bolt hold-open device locks the bolt carrier assembly open after expending the last cartridge from the magazine and is released by lifting the bolt catch lever located on the left side of the receiver. Alternatively, a left-handed shooter may release the bolt by pulling the rubber-coated charging handle to rear a short distance.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Me and friends usualy go wild boar hunt in summers i dont prefer pistol or rifle of course so dont have a lot of experience with them but i can't say i dont have. So let me put it this way that little button is slide and wether you like it or not you have to interract with it (it doesnt matter if its sg 550 or m4a1) if you dont have anymore rounds in the barrel. Correct me if im wrong but when you emptied your mag that slide gets locked right when you put a new mag you need to push it downwards or upwards to get the weapon back in action right. For pistols slide locks and when you put a new mag u simply pull the trigger to get the round inside the barrel right. What im telling here is there should be more options like i said. i like leaving 1 round inside the barrel and putting a new mag it makes faster to get back in action you cant deny it. I dont like the animation after i switch back the pistol 3-4 times because you still have to see the sliding action which has been done before and u have never used the gun actually. Correct me if any of theese are wrong and also for first post.

    wanted to add: In reality you cant count your rifle rounds that easily if you're in action but we have round counters in the bottom right corner of the screen so why not to use it wisely.

    Cocking a weapon all the time is a 'movie' thing, just like the metal scratching sound when a sword is drawn, all fiction.

    A rifle is only cocked when loading the first round (or unloading).

    No action when changing a magazine and a round is in the chamber.

    On emptying a magazine the bolt is held to the rear, when the next magazine is loaded, the bolt carrier is released manually and the next round is loaded.

    All important for speed, especially in NS2 when the aliens are so fast.

    well nice march 2010 is the last enry. Well some people don't care about weapon animations. Most of the people think if it looks cool its ok.First im not a gun nut but while i know how a weapon will respond when you use it i wanna see it in game also. Plus this game has a fast pace gameplay so 0.5sec or 1 sec is critical in any case. Really want to see this change in game.
    If weapons were like a leaser gun or something more futuristic weapon i wouldn't open this topic but they are rifles and they have clip and a lever.
