After getting my first taste of the game yesterday I noticed that I could carry a lot of spare clips but never needed them,
I almost feel this can partially be blamed on soldiers being to accurate, never wasting shots or firing extra rounds into the enemies, killing enemies outright instead of suppressing, I remember in jagged alliance I would burn through ammo, firing many bursts at long ranges but I don't seem to have that problem so far in this game,
But if you can increase ammo usage you increase clips being used and needing to be brought, instead of just nerfing the max capacity of the mags themselves.
Just my 2 cents, great game BTW really enjoying.
