Ammunition Boxes

[Amelius]

What the fuck is this shit? I stop playing cargo / R&D for a while and now suddenly all the traitor ammunition is replaced with ammunition BOXES. Basically, so you can't produce your own ammo any more if you're using 9mm or non-standard ammunition because you know what, fuck traitors/gangsters.

Just why? When was this merged? What did it 'fix'? Why isn't the sketchkin 4 TC or something because at the moment it's a 20 damage/shot PoS that you can't even make extra ammo for.

What the fuck is up with all these hugbo x changes snuck in? It's infuriating.

Uh, what? I have literally no idea what you think has happened, but it hasn't.

All non-357 ammo has been in box form from the autolathe for the longest time. This wasn't a sudden change.

Also, you can use ammo boxes to instantly refill magazines, and one box can refill it multiple times.

...what are you even complaining about here?

You do realise you can take magazines out of the stechkin right? There's more than the tacticool way to reload.

Remove your magazine with the USE function, which puts the magazine in your other hand if it's empty otherwise you just drop it, take a box of 10mm ammo and use it on the magazine and it automatically refills it. Pop it back in, bob's your uncle.

Or if you don't have an autolathe, you can order more ammo from your uplink for 1 TC which comes in magazine form so I really don't understand where your complaint is coming from and making a FUCKING gun + Suppressor (4+3=7TC) less than an e-sword (8TC) would be unbelievably unbalanced.

Plus the stechkin's whole schtick is to be a less-powerful, higher-capacity revolver and silenceable revolver.
