So my two cents... all of the rifles seem pretty unrealistic. That being said, as many people have pointed out, ANY projectile can be lethal. I think damage of the M4, SKS, etc. should all cause death sooner if hitting vital areas. If you hit a vital area with a bolt the same should be true. One of my problems is many of these shots (and hits from melee) should cause unconsciousness. And actually as i think someone pointed out (not sure because i just skimmed the post) arrows will pierce body armor (just like knives) and rifle rounds wont, unless the plates are hit many times. That being said, about 6 months ago I dropped a large wooden beam on my pinky finger when i was moving it at a wood mill. I caught it inbetween the metal jackstand and the corner of the beam. It almost took off the end of my pinky. Anyway, for about 15 minutes afterwards i was struggling to remain conscious. I was extremely nauseous as well. My vision went almost black for that time period as well. Now i admit it wasnt a combat situation however anytime you have trauma some amount of adrenaline will kick in. I have a pretty high pain tolerance as well. One of the first thoughts i had after the experience was how rediculous it is in movies when someone gets shot (by anything) and keeps on going. I know there are exceptions but i think in most instances a person would go unconscious even from a non vital area being hit. Feel free to troll. i just think it should be easier to knock someone out with the projectiles or from the trauma in general. and i think arrows AND bullets should be about the same when hitting a vital spot.

I cant believe no one has suggested it, but here it goes. I would love to see a working freight train. It could be a great vehicle to escort bambis. It would also make a focal point for fighting other than the towns. Could cause a police force type cooperation to happen, as well as a more organized bandit force. You could spawn in and see which faction has control of it. It would make a reason for people to team up. Hero's and bandits alike. I also like the idea of the older vehicles that are already modeled in game too. I just keep thinking how awesome it would be with a functional train carrying a few box cars.

Hi im Kyle. In game I am "-DoS- Genisis". DoS stands for Dead on Sight. But I dont KoS. I will wait to see how you act. I had this guy sighted in the NWAF and was watching him loot. Waited for him to come up to the control tower where i was watching. I was going to VOIP him to tell him not to come up and I wouldnt shoot. He spotted me and watched me for about 15 seconds then opened fire on me right as I was trying to tell him to move on. I killed him. Very unfortunate. I want to be a hero but sometimes it seems people get trigger happy. If you want to meet up me steam name in hexrain12 if anyone wants to try to meet up.
