I think that there should be the same weight when clips and shells are loaded

It's not weight- it's encumbrance. The weight of shells and clips would really be pretty negligible, it's the space on your person they take up that counts. Thus, when in your weapon, they no longer take up space in your person, and encumber you less.

Am I the only one who finds it weird that a fuel can encumbers me as much as a newspaper or pistol clip? I mean.. jerry cans are pretty big =P

I agree with that one. I think it's mostly meant as a balance measure.

That's EXACTLY why a shotgun shell takes up the same space as a pistol clip, and two shotgun shells take up the same space as a shotgun, and a pistol takes up the same space as a shotgun. You hit the nail on the head.

Hey, the current system makes a hell of a lot more sense than the old one. Not that you young'ins were around for it.

I read the title of this thread and my first thought was "Oh god damnit Ty are you posting in a bot thread!?" then I read all of this and realized that it was just a thread made to look like a bot on the outside, but on the inside next to the creamy gooey caramel center is grigori standing with his shotgun wondering about how much that shell will encumber him.
