Hello, my name is Punisher24689 and I'm addicted to reloading.

I came here to talk about my problem, not because I want all of you to feel sorry for me but because I need to start changing. Yes, I reload too often and I have come to terms with who I am and am ready to fight for a new me. It's a serious problem you see, every single time I'm done pew pewing I hit the X button. Even if I only shoot one bullet I reload and it gets me killed more often than I'd like to admit. Please. Help me get over this terrible habit I beg you. its an addiction and sooner or later it's going to lead to sprinting around every corner.... DON'T FALL INTO THIS TERRIBLE CHASM. BE READY FOR EVERY ENCOUNTER YOU GET YOURSELF INTO. DON'T GET CAUGHT WITH YOUR PANTS DOWN [spoiler]and no magazine in your gun[/spoiler] Thank you all for your time. Now excuse me as I stare at my motion sensor and fall off the map. Edit 1: About the Author Punisher24689 was an avid year 1 destiny player. He was there when Xur sold Gjallerhorn for the first time but thought why "spend strange coins on a stupid rocket launcher". His first love was The Last Word, "dude this thing makes me look like a -blam!-ing cowboy g'damn" and it remained a faithful firearm until the end. Problems started when he received a Fatebringer. It's outlaw perk led to quick reloads - and lots of them. He became a frequent reloader with other weapons, fearing paranoia of not having enough bullets to kill that one hunter who keeps blinking all over the place. He was able to manage Trials of Osiris well, using the Y-09 Longbow Synthesis to SNIPE THE -blam!- OUT OF THOSE REVIVES WHOO unfortunately he got into the habit after reloading only after one shot. Coming from an extensive Halo and Battlefield background, punisher had it ingrained in his mind to press the reload button after every kill or kills. Using quick reloading weapons helped but it wasn't enough from saving him running into a blueberry with an autorifle who filled his face with bullets. In one fateful Trials match, punisher faced two opponents with both his teammates down on the other side of the map. Quickly dispatching of one enemy and then hitting the other with his favorite sniper he was confident in a one hit kill with his Jewel of Osiris. We could say that hubris was his downfall, as he put one shot into he thought he would have gotten the kill and instinctively reloaded. He lost the match. Literally haven't played in a year. I just really like these forums. Be honest. Have you been reloading lately?

      Bad Juju will cure your reloading worries. The gun regens itself when you get kills with it. You almost never have to reload it.

      • Me too!! Nothing worse than getting him to a sliver and out of bullets. I'll die 10 times more because of my problem but hey that one in 100 kills I'll have the ammo for the finish.

      • Early Battlefield 4 helped me get over this. If you reloaded you would lose the rest of the bullets in the clip if there were any left. They patched it though... :(

              • Same. It doesn't help when you're OCD and you know that you can make everything OK if you just press one button. I also have the mindset that if I reload after every kill, I will be ready for the next gunfight and I can make more mistakes because I will have more bullets in the magazine.

              • I have this problem in overwatch. I love watching reaper reload so much, I'll just fire once randomly to watch him throw his guns down. [spoiler]BTW, it takes around 12 weeks of abstinence to rid oneself of an addiction.[/spoiler]

                I blame too much time with Fatebringer yr 1 for my reloading issues. Now I have a few weapons with Spray and Play and that's helping my problem, although I still have to fight the urge.

                • Yeah... but it's not always that simple. When I put away my voop I hit reload then instantly switch to primary. So... It's neck deep sweaty and the tryhard pants are pushing with 3 coming up the ramp. I bring Her out and now I'm zoning in the voop. They're coming over the top, Mapadors poised and Fists clenched. VOOOP... the bad man goes away VOOOP... the bad man goes away The third mans coming. C'mon boyo... gonna get the 3...gonna wreck their team... gonna be a HERO! He comes over the top... CLICK... sh*t CLICK... sh*t BOOOM Guardian down. [spoiler][i]i guess that little writing across the bottom didn't say special ammo full [/i][/spoiler]
