I mean, sure, the thread would die as soon as it started, but I think it'd be fascinating.
I've never got praise mail before, people just tend to say good job & stuff like that over comms.
I've had some classic hatemails over the years (I wish I kept some). Best one I ever had was someone asking for my address so thair Dad can arrest me.  |

You said it, not me. Can't dodge bullets in real life, why be able to do it in this game?
With that logic, we shouldn't even be flying around in gargantuan spaceships fighting various different races in intergalatic combat. In fact, we should all just be playing the Sims. 
FYI the bullets are pretty much insta-hit (putting the present hit detection aside), what you're avoiding when you strafing is the enemy's crosshair, which if you think about it makes perfect sense.

Mmkk333 wrote:The Sims is actually pretty unrealistic...
But back to the point, this is a FPSMMO sci-fi genre, so yes, there are fictional aspects, and depending on the game there will be more or less of them, Dust has many. BUT on the planet that we are doing these fictional things, we are held by gravity, our grenades have a trajectory, (though the bounce is completely random) and our vehicles have mass, which are all REAL things, which is what I was trying to get at. Can't dodge bullets.
People like you are funny on Forums, you came back with a counter to my post... Yet you completely glossed over the main point that I was getting at.
I stand by my previous statement, strafing and keeping yourself mobile has the primary function of making it as difficult as possible for your opponent to properly aim at you. Your suggestion of dodging bullets suggest that someone can simply slalom inbetween shots and kick the shooter in the nuts. |
