No Sprint Reload?

When I got into the game, I was blown away by the graphics and the smooth gameplay. However, I can't sprint and reload at the same time. I felt like Destiny would be one of those games that has a sprint reload function. Perhaps there is a skill that I haven't seen that lets you sprint and reload at the same time, but I think it should be a core game mechanic. A few times I have died because I had to reload, but couldn't move to cover fast enough. So, the enemy killed me because I had no bullets in my mag. What do you guys think? Would a sprint reload be a plausible fair gameplay mechanic? Online competitive multiplayer is different, I know, but my question still stands. Could we see a sprint reload feature in the final build?

  • I like that there's no sprint reload. Nevermind that it's downright silly (think about it, running as fast as you can while trying to reload a rifle? It's not impossible but it takes a lot longer to do) The game shouldn't be reduced to run-and-gun. you have other options. multiple weapons. if one is out of ammo switch. or throw a nade. if you can't do that just run to cover then reload. If you know they'll pursue turn to melee them, use an ability, or keep running. then there are options you have that depend on your terrain. Keep in mind that other players won't be able to sprint and reload either, so it's not like you can't take advantage of that yourself.

  • Definitely a good Idea, sprint and reload at the same time when some enemies run away kind if sucks..... Gotta reload before you can run...

  • In my opinion. I think that the inability to sprint and reload simultaneously is likely to increase the games difficulty and I kinda like it. I think that most modern game allow you to run and gun this mean that there is little thinking to do and for the most part all you have to rely on are quick reflexes. I'm not saying I'm great at the game because until I got the hang of it not being able to sprint and reload left me hanging several times. if they do end up changing it, I won't mind, just speaking my mind.

    • i agree that there should be a sprint reload and i also felt like ammo was hard to come by unless you killed and enemy which requires ammo. LOL
