ok so. have you ever been reloading your shot gun in bf4 and an enemy comes around but your still reloading and dont want to fire from the hip? well heres a suggestion that i hear a lot and you know what i like the idea. that suggestion is to make it where aiming cancels the reload. this mechanic would work very well with the way snipers work with their reloading in bf1. ---

Reload cancel is pulling the trigger and hip firing ---

If you have to cancel a reload it’s because you’re shooting at someone so why would it matter if you gave away your position? If you didn’t need to hip fire you’d just finish reloading… ---

Even with a shotgun I’d more often than not aim instead of hipfire of I’m caught mid reload. ---

Ty, appreciate it. Anyways: Well, when you are reloading your sniper rifle and see an enemy shooting at you from let’s say 50 meters away, I wouldn’t rely on the hip fire shot. Even with a shotgun I’d more often than not aim instead of hipfire if I’m caught mid reload. ---
