 I was wondering, what peoples opionions are on the concept of reload cancelling? Personally i think that it is kind of cheap. To me it is just exploiting because it was not something that was meant to be in the game. It also gives PC players an unfair advantage in the game because medi-gel cancelling is far better than and cancel possible on the xbox. Opinions? 

PS I would appreciate it if people kept this conversation civil.

We can reload-cancel exploits now?

Huh???? Where? I wouldn't consider something that is possible on one platform but not another a game mechanic....

It just seems to me that all PC users use a claymore due to this "mechanic"

Hit the Y button on the Xbox. There's your reload cancel on that platform.

I did not deny the fact that xbox players can do it. Its just a much beigger part of the PC game due to medi-gel cancelling which is far more efficient.

I never considered it an exploit. I always think of it as how Gears of War is - when timed correctly, the reload is faster.

It is an intended game mechanic, and that's the reason why.

Your suggesting using a power??? That takes time which could be used to simply reload the weapon...

But active reloads were an intended part of the game....I dont think bioware sat there and said "lets make it so players can cancel out reload times making all weapons reload really fast!"

It is possible on xbox, you just have to use a power instead.

You're new at this aren't you?

Hit the sprint button or use a power to reload cancel (whether the power is on cooldown or not), as intended by the game designers.

Someone close this pointless topic now plz?

Pretty sure it doesn't work for ps3, so no "exploit" there...I guess.

It works while a power is on cooldown. It's a pretty good strategy if your using an infiltrator. You get to put your cloak up and reload in half the time. Then while it's cooling down you can cancel again and pop off another shot, then repeat the process.

No, actually it cuts down on reload time and performs the skill, if said skill wasn't on cooldown.

Others have pointed these out, but your other options are to use a skill that's on cooldown, use a grenade power with no grenades left over (which I've personally never done), combat roll/dodge, get in/out of cover, sprint, or use a medigel.

The only reasons why it's easier to reload cancel with medigel is because it a) does absolutely nothing if you're not down, and B) can be bound to another button like the scroll wheel on your mouse, which is much easier to hit than down on a D-Pad.

Calling reload canceling an "unfair advantage" for PC users is like calling the mouse and keyboard unfair. It doesn't matter if we can aim better or reload cancel easier than console, we're not fighting one another.

I love how you assume that I dont know how to do any of this. I know how to do all the reload cancels i just think they are cheap.

Something like actively cutting your reload time with medi-gel canceling seems like exploiting to me :/

I hope to hell, for your sake, that you're trolling.

Thank you! Someone who actually takes an objective look at the situation. Everyone else has just said "Its not a glitch because I use it and im awesome."

Why are you upset about this anyways? This isn't PvP, it's Co-Op. Whatever advantage your team mate finds is only helping you. Besides, it's not like they're running around with God mode and unlimited ammo, they're taking a half a second off of their reload time. It's not that big of a deal man.
