Reloading / Weapon switch

I really miss the ability to switch weapons while reloading. I think it's one of the basic elements any FPS should have. Will it be in a patch?
I hate to be killed while reloading. Usually you should be able to switch to the pistol or axe.

    Yeah, weaponswitching is still clunky and i assume its something that will be fixed later on when all the features are in the game.

    I am definitely feeling the lack of quick switch at the moment too! Hanging out for it >_<

    Ah, so this is why my Skulk refuses to switch back to bite after parasiting a guy...
    Also missing is the "lastinv" ability, I think? I keep hitting Q by instinct but it does nothing.

    I've never used a quickswitch... I always use the weapon slots...


    On topic: They feel sluggish, even more so when lag is introduced. Switch to Bite so I can leap, ARGH I'm back on parasite kine of things :D

    As I recognized testing the 158, switching while reloading works from lmg and gl to pistol now; but not from pistol to other weapons. But it seems like they are working on it.

    I still use the numbers to switch btw ^^

    Very annoying. Having to watch the pistol reload instead of switching to shotgun when a skulk is chomping on my leg is getting old.
