Every now and then, I will play first person shooters on my off time. I've played a few of them, ranging from Destiny to Battlefront to Battlefield and I have always heard of reloading, well as reloading your weapon with a new clip.

Recently I heard that some first person shooters, when reloading your weapon, they contain a "hard reload" instead of a "soft reload". What is the difference between the two types of reloading?
