I have a sick Badlander. It's stats are perfect for my play-style. The gun has these stats with an Appended Mag perk that I usually never use. However, because the stats already are where I want them, I decided to use Appended Mag for the extra round. Now my Badlander has 8 rounds like my Ikelos. It currently has Moving Target and Auto-loading Holster.
But that made me wonder, could my Badlander take the place of my Ikelos if I added a 9TH ROUND! Excited, I immediate added my Backup Mag mod to the gun. Just the thought of having a fully-auto shotgun that dumps 9 rounds in 4 seconds and has another 9 ready just 5 seconds later made me foam at the mouth.
Imagine my surprise when after adding my Backup Mag mod to the gun, the shell-count remained at 8 rounds.
Is this a known restriction? Is this a glitch? Why would this even be an issue? How could adding 1 more round be so game-breaking as to need to prevent it? ESCPECIALLY without warning. If this weapon perk and mod cannot be used in conjunction, then TELL US!!!
I WANT MY 9-ROUND SHOTTIE.
