Elevation and bullet trajectory

Yes you have Sula. Everyone who's ever shared a team speak with you will say the same!

DayZ of course has gravity, so there will be some difference... will you ever have to take it into consideration? Not really.

Bumping this; lately I've been playing Wasteland Takistan quite a lot, the map has long lines of sight and high hills everywhere.

Anyways yes, your elevation relative to the target can make a significant difference in where the bullet impacts. Noticed this when using a Mk17, SVD and CZ550, at ranges of about 1,000-1,300 meters when shooting downhill you have much less (apparent) "bullet drop" than normal and have to pretend ranges are about 20-30 meters less than the rangefinder says, otherwise it will go well over the enemies' heads.
