    So now changed animations is equivalent to a nerf?

    No, they changed the animation to buff optimization.....better frames per second....

    "Nerf the Whales?"
    "Eh. Gotta nerf something."

    But no, this is a legitimate problem. The NS-7PDW reload animation got borked in the last major patch and needs to be fixed. You no longer reload the gun near the buttstock like you used to; you now cram the magazine into your forward grip, look at it confused for a second, and then start shooting again.

    I really don't think the first-person animations majorly, or significantly, affected performance. If that were the case the revolver reload animations would have been changed as well. I feel this is unintentional.

    Does this mean we won't get any cool animations in the future and instead all new weapons will be the same old same old

    exactly.. i miss variety too.. I think they gone to far, with "optimizing" the reload animation... i am all in for more optimizing with terrain and all that.... but... weapons, like this smg, should not be all the same...

    I'm pretty sure it's called a bug, not a nerf.

    Its a bug. As is the way the weapon is held with your thumb about 12 metres from your gun. Its a generic VS reload animation, why would they put that on an NS weapon.

    yeah its to the VS battery load animation. someone in their programming team got VSSMG1-reload and NSsmg1-reload mixed up in the files or something.
  14. PS2Freak

    If they wanted optimized reload animations they would have made all of them Goldeneye-style. Tip your rocket launcher off-screen, *ka-klick*, bring it back up in less than a second. Now we just need to dual-wield Decimators.

    Please, send also ingame bug report regarding NS-7 PaDoWan reload animation. thank you mates

    I just imagine that it is actually a bullet hose that got jammed and is being hit to get the jammed bullets lose. ITS A COPING STRATEGY OK. Yeah, I miss my cassette player, **** physics style gun.

    Bring back the old animation!
