What about a "Reloading-Message"?

[RIP-JFK]

Wouldn't it be helpful, to automatically play a sound when pressing the reload button e.g. "Reloading, need cover", so that surrounding squad members know whats going on.
I know its not as important as fixing some existing bugs, but i think it could help in certain situations.
Including a radio-command would be useless, cause nobody would ever use it before reloading, so the sound should be played automatically.

Any comments or suggestions?!

I think it would just be another thing to already distract me, currently all I hear is 'ENEMY INFANTRY SPOTTED' 'I NEED A MEDIC HERE' /nades blows up.

I was playing the other day and was suprised when I actually heard footsteps, but yeah I guess its a good idea :)

I, as your enemy, would just love to hear that sound. The next soud you'd be hearing would be, Frag Out!!!

I heard the birds and crickets in Karkand last night and was amazed.

However the "Reloading" call is one that's made IRL, so I don't see why it shouldn't be in the game.

The police department I work at uses "Red" for empty and "green" for reloaded.

I think it would be nice if there was a typing animation. By that I mean the players should go into a special animation loop when the player is typing a message. In UT, the players would put one hand to their ear and nod like they were listening to something when the player was typing a message. It was nice to know someone is typing and not just standing around. Also, the more 'fair play' players might not kill you if they knew you were typing. Too much of an easy kill and all that. :)
