How To Pick Up & Use Other Weapons In Star Wars Outlaws
Other weapons can be dropped by enemies or found lying around enemy bases that can be picked up and used. You’ll know if a weapon can be picked up and used as a white bar with the gun’s icon will appear above the ground. Approaching the gun and interacting with it will pick it up, withNix also able to retrieve weaponsfor you if it was dropped by an enemy out in the middle of a fight. Once a weapon is picked up, itsammo is limited and it will be automatically dropped once you run out. Its total ammo is displayed by the white bars around the reticle in the center of the screen.
Be cautious of when you run out of ammo as a short animation will play of Kay dropping the weapon, so be sure you’re in a safe spot before running out.
While you can dodge and sprint with a picked-up weapon,any animation that requires Kay to use her hands will drop the weapon, such as climbing a ladder, grabbing a cliff, or getting on your speeder. It is possible to use Nix to retrieve a dropped weapon when climbing, but this is not always possible and does limit the overall use of a picked-up weapon.
