Make Revolver "Clip Size" into overall ammo

[timber lance]

Revolvers, no matter what, are supposed to have 5, 6, or 8 bullets. The revolvers in this game visibly have 6 in each, I feel it should be overall ammo like the Minigun rather than clip size

[silk ridge]

May I present to you, the Lefaucheux

[timber lance]

please never present me this ever again

[flint estuary]

the quad is technically a revolver too

though i agree it feels very weird increasing the clipsize on that thing

[silk ridge]

Fine, I shall present you, the Enouy percussion revolver. Holds 48 rounds.

[timber lance]

please

stop

😭

[silk ridge]

I get what you're saying, but I had to. I think the reason is since the dual revolvers have ammo capacity instead of "clip" size to try and differentiate the stats.

[timber lance]

fair

like I get it

but

wait until there are more weapons that actually have clips

like a machine pistol or somethin'

not

revolvers

like

clip size for the boomerang could let you have more boomerangs and throw out multiple at once

just have it cap out early and cost a lot

or make it a unique and make boomerang size a different stat

regardless this is just about Revolver having more ammo rather than clip size

[silk ridge]

You can always increase the ammo stat on your hero, I know it might not be what you're hoping for, but it still does what you're asking.

[timber lance]

I have it maxed

I main the Minigun

ammo is necessary

all damage, all fire rate, 20% ammo on Minigun

80% ammo on hero, 20% hp

[steel chasm]

You are a gentleman and a scholar

[silk ridge]

You know what they say, it takes one to know one

[silk ridge]

I usually don't have too many issues with revolver ammo since I switch off. When I'm low or need lifesteal I switch and fan the hammer until I'm completely out, by the time I need to do it again I'm usually all set on ammo

[timber lance]

ah

I do wish to fan the hammer

magdumping is fun

wait

if I put like

max clip size

can I mag dump like 30 bullets?

[silk ridge]

Yes, it fires until empty

[flint estuary]

extremely niche trick, but you can get multiple boomerangs out if you pick up a sidearm ammo box while your initial throw is still in the air, then keep throwing it out before the others get back to you

[flint estuary]

considering they made an "automatic" rifle by stacking 4 revolver cylinders, i think the devs are making a purposely attempt to avoid stick mags

[timber lance]

true enough

dont seem too bothered by beltfed though

considering the minigun and sniper rifle designs

not sure about the leveredge

[flint estuary]

i think the lever and shotgun are both tube mags

historical lever rifles are all tube fed too, though I'm not sure if that's because of a mechanical problem or the tech faded from popularity before mags became viable

cuz pump action mag shotguns exist

[silk ridge]

Most levers were tube magazine fed, but I remember the 1895 winchester had an internal box magazine like bolt action rifles. I think marlin has a few lever guns now with detachable magazines.

[flint estuary]

well there you go

[silk ridge]

belt fed machine guns were still made in the late 1800's. I think the first might have been the 1895 maxim (although that might have been the first with disintegrating links). Detachable box magazines were more common in handguns, like the C93 borchardt or the FN 1902. although the minigun could be like the original gatling where it was basically gravity fed. They mad a hopper, which was like a box magazine but didn't have a spring to push rounds, gravity pulled them down.
