Bulletproof bushes?

Recommended Posts

Are bulletproof bushes and leaves still a thing? I know this was an issue for a long time but I swear I remember reading that DayZ fixed it. 

I'm wondering because leaves on bushes and tiny trees give a visual "hit" indicator and also play the bullet impact sound. But I'm not sure if the bullet goes through unabated, or if it has a loss of strength, or if it just doesn't go through at all. 

I included an example clip on Twitch. It's hard to tell if the leaves stopped my bullets or not, considering I missed all 4 shots regardless of whether or not the bullets went through.

Yes, there are both bushes and branches with hit boxes that can stop bullets that should hit the player.

Last I heard from someone he said that bushes and trees have a circular hitbox around them, but they shouldn't affect bullet trajectory. It's just for displaying the particles.

But... who knows.
