Yeah same problem here I can not wait for this to be fixed. Pump shotguns already have long reloads since every shell needs to be manually reloaded. Nothing like reloading a ten round mag only to get five shots or when it expends every shell in one shot.
This bug is indeed annoying esp when you are in a bind and need to get off a few shots before you are dead. The problem is compounded when your magazine counter says its fully loaded yet after firing one shot it reloads again. This also happens to other weapons as well such as the assault rifle, however the occurrences of such is smaller than shotguns.
So far using the increased firepower ego perk is the sure fire way of reloading it. I have yet to see that glitch when my shotguns are reloaded this way.
Unless that one shot did all the damage of the ten shells combinedOriginally Posted by Lurch87
of course thats not the case, lol
The same thing is happening to me too, but with ALL weapons. It also eats the ammo from my reserve box. Nothing like reloading a 55 mag, then poof back to 0, and 55 ammo is gone from my reserve too!! GRRRR!
I've noticed this as well. I have yet to find a weapon type that doesn't do this actually.
If you click to fire right before the reload animation completes the game seems to freak out and either only load 1 bullet (mostly with shot guns) or go through the reload animation immediately after the first reload animation.
The only work around I've been able to figure out is to roll as soon as I see the second reload animation start to interrupt it, though I suppose melee attack would do it as well.
You still end up needing to reload the weapon, but you can at least break the reload animation to save the bullets and time.
Hope it's fixed, and hope that information helps.
I too am having this issue~ I would like to share my broadcasts/streams with others but am holding off until this glaring mistake can be fixed. Just one of those things that will turn people off ~ I myself enjoy this game too much and will be patient for the fix.

Yeah, that is a big problem. Have been killed a several times due to that. Stop in behind cover watch the load animation put 5 rounds in or so and jump out and fire only to see one shot come out, lol!
small fix ive been doing for this , using the preperation perk that reloads clip in stowed gun an with sawedoff it dont take long to get both bullets an when u switch back to lmg you have like 50-85 depends on how long u use the other gun also is great in pvp if u want to use 2 sawed off shotguns u can shoot hit trianlge an shoot again
run a but then hit trianlge an ur first one alrdy has a bullet or 2 , hope this helps some of you
I've been unable to reproduce this. Can you give me more information as to what abilities/shields/perks you are using? Just trying to look for anything I might have missed
There are just too many variables IMO, but to try and narrow it down...
It seems to happen more often while Overcharge is active with the +30% reload perk. Perhaps it is reloading too quickly? Getting shot can sometimes interrupt the reload animation perhaps glitching it and forcing the player to start it over. It sometime will happen when simply sprinting or running around while trying to reload.
As for items, I am using all FRC Scatterguns, Respark shield, Overload Perk (i think) for the +30% reload while an EGO power is active.
I really wish I could give you more information about what everyone is experiencing or even to show you first hand what happens.
EDIT: I am also playing on Xbox 360, on the North American servers.
