I agree entirely that hit scan should not be used on this game, it should be projectile based.
If the pred has to allow for drop and projectile travel time so should the FT.

It also fucks with me personally when I go from pred to FT LOL.
Playing pred you need to allow travel time and gravity for arrows, switching back to FT and you miss a lot for the first half of the match until you realise you’re compensating for something that doesn’t exist for FT.

I must also say though, that including a .50 cal in the game is retarded.
That is a single shot kill to anything (even the pred).
Shit it will remove the targets arm if you miss by 2 inches.

Also there’s no one (even chuck norris), that can fire it standing up unsupported.
(there’s a reason that they are bolted down to what ever surface the front bipod is resting on)

Dang you kicked their a$$. Nice work.

#27

Someone doesn’t understand ballistic forces and how platforms like the .50 compensate to allow a single shooter to fire from even a standing position.

Go watch some gun vids man, educate yourself before making yourself look like a fool.

…
you have never personally fired one, that much is clear.

So depending on the bullet being used the weight of the projectile is any where from 640gr to 750 gr.
The standard powder type used in manufactured ammunition of this caliber is 2206 or 2208 (both slow burning smokeless large grain gun-powders and I believe they have a different classification in the US 24N41 or something similar).
Considering the .50 cal they use in this game has no muzzle break the amount of force being produced by recoil is 37 foot/pounds

Unless your are a very large individual with a great deal of experience you are not firing this standing up.
And certainly not firing it on the move.

The weight of the rifle alone is 12 kg, supported almost entirely on an extended arm (depending on the strapping you use).

I’ve been around firearms my entire life, I don’t need youtube to teach me about them…

Lets hope the devs don’t listen to all the predators crying for nerfs or nobody would play FT. I don’t think there is something about the FT that people don’t want nerfed.

#31

you don’t need to worry, the devs do not listen.

#32

and hammerhead and ak suck? The ak will blow the second wind off a predator in 4 secs or less. Your suppt classes should be running ak and a xl pistol. Last thing you want it to over estimate your sniper skills as your team is getting netguned and your 400m away

#33

Another part of the problem is the high ground that the FT can reach. Derailed is obviously the best example. They can deny a ridiculous portion of the map like that which means healing is unlikely, let alone taking them on. People here who haven’t played the stupidly strong teams won’t understand this issue but it is definitely a huge problem.

I play PC and all I see is people complain about PC. Spot spam sniping parry. My take away is sorry we have good aim? I mean do you want us to use a controller for this game? As for parry still hard to do idk what all the complaints are about PC players. First look at the balancing don’t segregate a player base.

I’m not a fan of preventing FT from trying to get a tactical advantage. Keep in mind I have dealt with campers on the roofs and helipad and rocks and doors and under the docks in many different hunts. Here are a few ideas to deal with this.

1)Add more explosive barrels to these locations

2)add another level of elevation that only
predator can reach.

3)add a new perk to allow predator to carry an additional weapon

#36

Barrels won’t work as they will destroy them in 2 seconds.

Elevation yes but stopping them going on those rooves is that solution.

Yeah I’d like to see how an extra weapon would work but I very much doubt they would implement this due to balancing reasons.

#37

Any time somebody camps on a roof you just need repositioning yes even on derailed

#38

For the extra weapon perk idea. Balancing would be the cost of the perk. It would be the only perk you could equip.

#39

The second sniper deal more damage than the third if anything, and it’s fine.

Hammerhead is wrote in the comment as you can see (hello?). Ak is quite good, I’m using it since day one, but hammerhead is over all better because of the recoil and reload time. Ak is the hardest to use , high recoil and high reload time. I have done 5k + damage a lot of time with this weapon but , damn, the hammerhead is so easier to use with a fucking good damage and a better granade launcher.
