Reduce Fall Damage

Recommended Posts

Did a search and to my surprise found no topics so here goes;

To put it blatantly, I think the fall damage needs to be altered/reduced. Am I alone in this? The other day my friend was up in a deer stand, and he accidently walked out without using the ladder. He feel a terrifying 6-7 feet and broke his leg and lost most of his health. I could fall that far flat onto my back and be totally fine... I think the fall damage needs to be reduced some. Not a lot, I want it to remain realistic obviously, but I think it's a bit rediculous. The human body is resiliant. People can fall of roofs of single (even possibly 2) story buildings and be totally fine, but the fact that a few feet can potentially break bones or even kill you is absurd in my opinion.

Anyone else feel the same or am I all alone in this broken-leg and death ridden boat?

Once again, realism isn't a major consideration. People have survived sky diving accidents from 10,000+ feet without a parachute.

As for deer stands, they seem to be closer to 8-9 feet high. I sure as hell wouldn't like to fall onto my back from that height... even 4 feet would hurt like a bitch lol.

By the way, you can survive falls from any height by making sure you land on an object, like a vehicle.

True, but I'm thinking more like what people consistantly do. Damn near every able bodied human could fall even 8-9 feet onto their feet no problem. Part of this may be a bug, because I've dropped 1 foot and broken my limbs somehow...

Yeah, it's not really realistic.

Maybe falls below 10 feet or something should have like 10% chance to break a bone, and a higher chance to lose whatever amount of blood and/or start bleeding.

Nine feet is three meters, deerstands are definitely not three meters high.
