You sure about that Djinn? I don't think open bolt SMGs can keep a round in the chamber. As they load from the magazine after pressing the trigger.
Also on those old open bolt SMGs, if you shot your last shot and kept the trigger down, the bolt would shut. But if you shot the last round in semi, the bolt would be open, so reloading would just require replacing the magazine (unless any of them have last shot bolt lock).
All in all, not possible in BF2. But if you look at the first BF3 trailer, you can see it.
Also, interesting how the FG42 is open bolt in fully automatic and closed bolt in semi.
makes me think about tanks, like if all tanks were reload friendly, and if so does it add any time? You load a HE then a tank rolls around the corner... did any tanks have flaws like the garand where you couldn't easily take a round out, once it was in? I don't want to change the topic but something to think about.
no, they'd press the bolt lever and the full bullet would eject and they'd load a different one. Would take a couple seconds for a trained crew. Here FH2 is optimized for gameplay though.
