You can keep cycling weapons during the lower/raise state, the weapon you cycle to still changes regardless of the active weapon's state. It's no different from EX in this regard.You gotta wait for it to reload, then wait for the very slow change, one weapon at a time, while eating unavoidable damage if you're pinned.
Makes a lot of surprise encounters just unfair.
There's definitely some better things about this port, but this alone makes EX better.
Hot tip: The weapon being cycled to has its ammo count immediately shown, rather than your current weapon.
Hot tip 2: If you are playing on Xbox, even if you aren't playing using a keyboard and mouse, the Xbox chatpad numbers can also be used to select weapons. Which was unintentional but made a lot of sense when I discovered that worked.
