Do they? I upgraded the red 9 and checked the reload throughout it, and it felt like they just sped up the middle part of the reload, nothing actually played out differently. not sure about others but doesn't seem like its a guaranteed thing.

[@lilmanpferfe7378]

@@johntravoltage959 At least they made it feel a little like the original where Leon just gets 2 shells into the shotgun regardless of how many it can fit and just top it off. But yes, I also wish they did that, and with the rifle also, if you could use a stripper clip instead of loading rounds one by one, though it’s good as a general reload since you wouldn’t be able to use a stripper clip if you put a scope on it.

[@ibrosyndicate]

@@lilmanpferfe7378 I mean, in the original the striker went up to 100 rounds and Leon fully reloads the thing in 2 shells so there's that. Also Leon reloads it correctly in the remake, needing to wind the cylinder back between each shell.

@@johntravoltage959 As a gun guy I honestly prefer the new reload, it's way more realistic as snapping the gun back like that is REALLY bad for it, same goes with the Handcannon. Also if you were to take the "broken butterfly" and attempt that reload in real life you would literally just launch all the rounds you just loaded right back out of the cylinder.

[@dombagarut2188]

​@@ibrosyndicate then they must remove the "reloading" part from the game.. cuz it's just normal and boring..

[@johntravoltage959]

@@ibrosyndicate The point is more so that it mentions it being very stylish even in game, and its just... normal. As for rounds flying out when he flicks it closed, that wouldn't necessarily happen, as the actual momentum he generates with the flick is more so towards the barrel, he'd need a lot more backwards momentum and a hard stop before it closes to launch them out. If we were going to take the realism route theres much more glaring issues that you can take up with it such as the shotgun reloading.

[@none377]

It's insane how well the original holds up. It's 18 years old mind you and it came out at a time when reload animations for third person games were just a sound with a static gun model.

The devs of the remake missed a trick from the original. There is a rhythm to the reload sounds, kind of like a countdown..3,2,1, that helps you better judge how quickly you can reload. Its kind of a subconscious thing but it does help.

Old Animations were faster and more stylish because of fhe fact you cant move while reloading, and the New one is a bit slower and more realistic due to the fact Leon can parry and even move while reloading. To make it balance, i think its fair.

It is interesting that they have him release the slide manually rather than with the button/lever

@Sierra Kilo then go and do an animation mod that accurately portraits all the reloads of every single handgun

[@cr0wnest]

@@SolasLupum In real life it would make more sense to just pull the pistol slide rather than press the release as its considered a fine motor skill, which is harder to do while under stress even for highly trained and experienced soldiers. So if the devs could only implement one reload animation, it would be more realistic for the devs to just have leon pull the slide instead as that is what anyone would realistically do in combat.

Yeah true

[@DIRTYPRODiGY]

Red9 and the Bolt Action in the OG were just *Chef's Kiss* However, I do like the overall details they added to the reloads. It's more realistic and you most certainly feel the tension when you're forced to reload at the wrong time.

[@godzillazfriction]

that's the same with the original

[@ibrosyndicate]

@@godzillazfriction Reloads feel slower in the remake and enemies are more aggressive this time around so that compounds that sluggish feeling. In the original it's easy to jump into the case and go from weapon to getting shots off where you can (being able to pause time and pull out a shotgun and clear everything in your path for example). The remake ups the tension by adding equip animations and slower more realistic reloads.

[@godzillazfriction]

@@ibrosyndicate you have to stop to reload in the original where you can also fuck by reloading at the wrong time... this is what I meant

[@gibleyman]

@@godzillazfriction I'd argue it's alot more punishing in the remake, especially in harder difficulties where enemies are extremely fast and aggressive. In the original, most enemies were pretty slow to compensate for the tanky controls, so once you get the movement down, it's easy to avoid attacks and such.

Now they dumb down the audio on the sound effects during the reload, the animations are shorter and the reloads are genuinely too fast nowadays, which makes the game easier.

[@mariogpx2990]

Rifle animation in the original its so satisfactory

[@qazxsw13]

The original reload animations are more pragmatic and do have some basis in reality but not entirely, they do have more stylistic flair to them though. There's a certain punchy sound to every click and motion in each and every animation in the game, and it's very recognizable even among the handguns that share the same animations but use different sounds. The remake's are more realistic, unsurprisingly, but tend to be less stylish and much faster. In general, I think this follows the typical trend with modern games. Older games with guns weren't always focused on hyper realism for one reason or another, and even games that were didn't always make reload animations that were 100% accurate to reality. I think even the remake doesn't have 100% accurate animations, but modern games typically handle reload animations of firearms more accurately, but the stylistic freedom of older animations has a certain charm to them that is kind of lost. I guess the truth is reality is sometimes boring.

feel like the new reload have added realism, like the rilfe's no clip reload and the revolvers i will still miss the badass reloads of the OG's
