reem 14 Posted February 7, 2014 I think this should be in the game... because this is a simulator and especialy when we are using extremly old wep of world war 2.. xDThe bullet always goes down eventully Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkfish (DayZ) 339 Posted February 7, 2014 Bullet drop is already a thing, so what is it you're asking for exactly? Also, the ballistics were (or should have been) tweaked in today's patch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted February 7, 2014 Even modern ammunition is affected by gravity. Instead of calling it bullet drop, think of it as a ballistic curve instead, this way you don't get surprised, when you overshoot targets, who are closer than they appear.

reem 14 Posted February 7, 2014 Oh , so it already patched today? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkfish (DayZ) 339 Posted February 7, 2014 Oh , so it already patched today? That depends on what you're referring to. Bullet drop (or ballistics curve, as Dallas said) has always been in the game. The patch fixed some inaccuracies with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rickenbacker 190 Posted February 7, 2014 Oh , so it already patched today? No, it's been a part of Bohemia games since Operation Flashpoint in the 90's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chekovp 89 Posted February 7, 2014 Fun little fact, bullets with rifling actually go up before they start to drop. I don't know the exact specs for every weapon, but I do for the M4. I'm of course talking about real life with this and I'm not sure if it is in game or not, but its somewhat safe to assume that it isn't. Rounds shot from an M4 go up and reach their peak at 220m, being around 24 inches above where you shot and leveling out again at around 300m. Of course this is if they are zero'd to 300m, which is probably the most common zero range for am M4 or any other similar AR.I would love to see this in game, or something with the similar affect.
