How will clips be handeled


there are several ways clips can be handeled in a FPS. We havent been which way they will be handeled, even though we know there will be clips.

A)Half-Life/Counterstrike style: Your clip draws from a pool of bullets and you dont loose unused rounds from your clip.

B)BF1942/DoD style: You have a set # of clips, and when you reload you drop the clip that was priviousely in your gun, looseing any unused rounds in that clip. This is considered better from a stratagy standpoint.

C)Firearms style: A rare style of ammunition management, it lets you carry a set number to total clips at one time, but you keep clips that still have unused rounds in them. You are then allowed to merge these clips so that you don't have to compleatly expend the rounds in the clips before rearming.
