Why is the 50 cal so freaking underpowered? It takes at least 2 shots in this game to kill someone and even after the first shot people have plenty of time to hide around a corner and heal themselves, undoing all the damage I've done to them! Have you ever seen the damage a 50 cal does to someone in real life?? How could anyone survive more than 1 shot from that! Hellllooooo CCP? Realism? Ever heard of it??
Stop ignoring snipers. It's broken and unrealistic as hell and needs a huge buff. When I hit someone with a 50 cal it should be an instant one shot kill one shot bleed out no exceptions end of story.

While I agree that alpha should be increased, I would suggest not comparing real life and this game (or games in general unless they're simulators).
In real life, people don't wear armor. And if they did, they wouldn't generate a force field. |

Agreed. Snipers are currently woefully underpowered.
To everyone saying "get Thales": These are officer weapons, not the standard against which performance should be judged. They are a rarity and an outlier; designed to be significantly more powerful than the norm. Not everyone has access to them and when they do they are for a relatively limited time. |

What 50. cal? All I see are these railguns?
Also, I would just like to point out that the AR fires a bolt of plasma.
Which would melt you IRL.
And that in the fiction somewhere an MH-82 takes down a dropship (not one of our Myrons or Grimsnes, a factional militia one).
Happily printing ISK with permahardeners and MLT blasters.
Just let me get a couple mil more before nerf, CCP!

I snipe and I dont support any more power to them then they currently have. Headshots are still OHK for most suits and Thales are beast weapons. The risk vs. reward balance is important for a game like this, and nothing can be too powerful or it will be exploited as it should. ( heavies with Thales.... )

lol, "realism". Maybe if an AR could kill a medium frame in 3 or 4 shots like COD, but otherwise no. Can't apply the "realism" argument to one kind of weapon, but not another.
Are you trolling and talking about MAG? because there is no 50 cal in Dust. No APCs either, etc.

I forget where I had heard that There is a Zinc-Magnesium 50 Caliber bullet (or something close) used for penetrating like brick walls and when it comes out the other side a spray of semi-lethal sparks comes out as well.
Depleted uranium is used as anti tank rounds in A-10 warthogs and such.

In real life, people don't wear armor. And if they did, they wouldn't generate a force field.
in real life DS (helicpters) would be alot more useful, AV kills vehicles in 1-2 hits tops, tanks are ******* gods, and every gun in its intended range can kill someone in 1-3 hits max EVE WITH bullet proof armor. personal defensive gear just hasn't kept up with the increase in fire arm potency.
in RL snipers have to wait days, even weeks for their targets, and once they take a shot, miss or hit, they change locations.... trying to speed that up into a 15 battle where half the soldiers on he battlefield engage in suicide "id'nt give a ****" behavior is pretty impossible.
simply put. If one thing gets real life stats everything should.

ya it realy non-sence, I saw someone say 'aim for the head' so the anser is NO, headshot only give you 75% damage buff (headshot deal 175damage if your basic damage is 100) so headshot can't kill someone in one shot too, it even deal LESS damage than 2 shot!

Troll it maybe.
But you forget heavies and sentinels are armored, and should be able to tank more hits, now basic and militia medium frames are one hit one kill most of the time, two if you are using basic sniper. Adv can vary according to how they are fitted.

But we fire railgun rounds. They have a muzzle velocity of 2500 m/s.
Thats pretty dang fast.
BTW, I don't agree with doing damage just by getting CLOSE to your target.

RL doesn't count in this case as we have shields and full body armor protecting us. however if they did do RL damage comparison then they would need to take the negative effects too such as wind, fall of shot, range adjustments etc and require every sniper to have a spotter
