Forum:Thermal Clips

Just need to get this off my chest somewhere besides my podcast this weekend.

Thermal clips are such a step backwards. I understand why they did it, but seriously, I'd rather fire a tad slow and never run out of ammo ever. In ME1, I stormed through the whole game with a pistol. My skill was high enough that it never overheated, ever. And now I have to swap from a heavy pistol to a POS machine pistol midway through every single firefight. It just brings frustration every single time I have to reload, because again, my pistol never overheated.

I was hoping that the clips were optional - that you could fire a la ME1 until it overheated, then you'd pop the clip and shove a fresh one in. Clips would be rare, so you'd have to use this sparingly. If you ran out of spare clips, you'd have to wait for it to cool down - for balance, cooldown would be longer, perhaps ten seconds.

I hope I can find a pistol that's two years old in-game so I don't have to deal with this crap >.< Boter 18:03, January 29, 2010 (UTC)
