Reloading problems, yes I am serious.

No clue if this has been addressed yet, but here goes:

So it actually took me quite some time to figure this out.
But apparently you cannot reload while dodging, but more importantly you cannot reload while you take damage of any sort.
Well. You can reload. But once you get hit by anything, all your reload progress is back to 0.

Let me give you an example of the problem I am running into, which I am sure of others experience as well:
I got my 1st LMG today, and went straight to an Arkfall to test it. It has a reload time of like 3 secs.
So I am standing there, shooting stuff, when the clip ran empty and I naturally reloaded. I had agro on some of the mobs, so I constantly got hit with dmg.
One of the mobs I had agro on, was one of those flying things which shoot that black ooze which gets you stuck on the ground.

OK. So here I stand, no ammo to shoot with, when trying to reload I get interrupted constantly which means my gun is not going to get reloaded any time soon.
I cannot sprint/reload because I am stuck in the black ooze. All I can do is to dodge roll (no reload either) out of there, run away, try to lose agro (which basically means I am running around like a headless chicken, not doing anything) until I can finally reload my weapon.
I go back in, and the same thing all over pretty much!
(This was on my 3 sec LMG. Painful, but not near as painful as if you had for example a shotgun which reloads every single shell on its own. [Thank god I blasted several ks for a purple shotgun which did exactly this thing, and just ended up being sold because of its redundancy])

Is this really intended to be that way, or did no one just yet rose this issue?
Leave the reload cancel on dodge if needed, but I beg you give it another thought or two to remove the reload penalty on getting hit!!
This is ridiculous IMO.

I understand that there have to be reload times, and I have no problem with that whatsoever. But for me, when I hit the reload button, I want my gun to ****ing be reloading. It surely can´t be that I am constantly sidetracked only to check if the reload went through or not. It honestly is frustrating and no fun at all!

Other than that (obviously apart from the horrible PC-UI interaction, and the terrible Chat system in place, but these already got addressed I hope) I ****ING love this game! :D

I seem to reload while taking damage just fine. It's only when I roll around or throw grenades that it resets.

Getting hit doesn't stop you from reloading, it hasn't for me at least. Dodging of course would stop you, I mean, I know I couldn't dodge and reload. When the archers shoot you, roll a few times to get the ooze off of you, then start sprinting around the battlefield and reload while you sprint.

It depends on what you get hit by. Snipers, grenades, melee, anything that has a knock back effect on your character will reset your reloading.

Hmm. Sometimes getting damaged will stop a reload. Perhaps it dependent on the weapon and reload method. Perhaps it depends on the type of damage, such as explosive.

Or maybe the damage needs to cause you to get knocked back or flinch?

Oha!

Ok well, this is embarrassing then.
I was unaware that it only occurs on knock backs, still its a pain.
Thanks for clearing that up!
