Valve say Counter-Strike 2's reloading needed "higher stakes", so you now dump all the ammo left in a clip when you reload early

Valve's latest Counter-Strike 2 update penalises players who reload before their gun's magazine is empty, giving clip-swapping "higher stakes".

    Why not just have a limited amount? No one in a fire fight is manually loading a mag unless shit has gone REALLY sideways.

      It’s not like you’re reloading a magazine. It’s more like you take the magazine that’s in the gun, dropping it on the ground (including the ammo that was remaining in the magazine) and loading a new full magazine.

      That part in parenthesis is what’s new. Previously, that ammo would have been returned to your reserve ammo.

        That actually makes more sense than what I was thinking this said. I don’t play many war games, so thanks for informing me!

        So is there an option to pick it back up again or is it just lost to the bits after that?

          It’s just gone

          Now, when you reload, you’ll drop the used magazine and discard all of its remaining ammo.

          Gone. Counter-Strike rounds are fairly short and strategic anyhow
