Please improve 9mm damage.

Yeah, but if your friends can stop the bleeding, you should be able to craft prosthetics.

Eeeh. I don't know how I feel about prosthetics. In reality, you shouldn't be able to get your leg blown off, throw a bandage on it, and slap on a prosthetic, and be good to go. It would take a long time and much physio.

And when you have large open wounds and there's no team of doctors you get nasty infections and die.

I would like to pull through it all.

Would be a nice story and that's what we need good story.

It's not shaping up to be a "happily ever after"  :P

It would take too long. Unless you are willing to play for a few months straight taking painkillers and anti-biotics to numb the pain and stop any infections.

That would basically be the same with a bullet wound or cut only you have a larger area to keep covered.

I like the idea of having to refresh bandages on it 3 times before it is fully healed.

With atleast an hour or maybe a IRL day time between them.

you should be able to drag your legless friend around imagine a survivor with a wooden leg travelling the road, instead of shooting him you light a fire beside the road and wait for him while you sit so you can ask him his story.

I think if you get shot anywhere with a 9mm, you should drop your main gun and clutch the point of impact. Then have to run/limp (if leg shot) for your life....running gets slower the more blood you loose until you pass out.

 

And lets face it....if its true realism you want then 1 shot to chest should imobalise you into a sitting position (maybe let you keep your pistol in hand for defence but very shaky held in 1 hand while other clutches the wound) . 2 shots to the chest and you pass out. 3 shots and its over.

 

As far as snipers/assault rifles go any hit to anywhere but the leg should kill, maybe let chest shots pass you out with death within 2mins, with a leg shot you should not be able to run and have to sit up pushing with 1 leg as the other drags on he floor (again main wep dropped instantly and pistol in 1 hand while other clutches wound, and very shaky aiming)

 

But I think if it was made that realistic people would moan soooo much. There has to be a balance between entertaining gameplay and realism.

What do you mean? A .50 would blow your leg off. Easily.

I believe he was just offering a suggestion for WHEN the .50 cal blows off your legs lol

I think pistols should be weak, it somewhat promotes less kos due to the weak damage.

That would be very unauthentic.

To me, it promotes bandits targeting low level players along the coastline who are numerous simple fun targets that are nearly no threat to them.

If a 9mm shot actually caused some realistic effects over time you would see those bandits take a more careful approach to combat rather than spamming snipers.

If wounds were slightly realistic side NOBODY would ever look for a fight he is not sure to win or not look for a fight at all because the danger of getting wounded and the after effects can be deadly if you don't get it treated with the right medicine. Every open wound can end up beeing lethal if you get an infection and a bullet wound is one of the worst wounds you can recieve. It's not just a "flesh wound" you put a band aid on like in the action films.
