Yatagan 62 Posted July 28, 2012 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?

KennyNZ 121 Posted July 28, 2012 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.

Yatagan 62 Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) 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... Edited July 28, 2012 by Yatagan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KennyNZ 121 Posted July 28, 2012 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spokely 1 Posted July 28, 2012 Nine feet is three meters, deerstands are definitely not three meters high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
