Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 1058	Posted - 2012.12.11 23:37:00 - [1] - Quote When the maps themselves expand (as in, the redline is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay further back), do you think weapons will get a range boost? I think that right now, the range of some weapons is just silly. Small railguns have tiny range, large railguns can't make a shot across a valley, SMGs have about a 2m accurate range, etc. I was just thinking that perhaps when we have more room to fight, weapons will have a realistic range.
Tenchu-13 What The French 76	Posted - 2012.12.12 00:24:00 - [2] - Quote As in you want to change every single weapon into a sniperriffle .... ?! smg's are supossed to be close combat, Assualts should be midrange and a sniperriffle should be able to kill you from a pretty distant place... Nerf/buf ranges and it'll throw the whole game out of balance. On of the points of bigger maps is to get organized and actually get some real logistics running... as in using dropships for dropping people instead of bombarding the **** out of red dots. Same goes for LAVS, they are meant to move fast from A to B and not run over A then B. Ranges are perfect, people will just have to get into the logistic side of things. In the end DUST battles will be more about logistics (trooptransport) then simply offing the next red dot.
fred orpaul Tritan-Industries Legacy Rising 211	Posted - 2012.12.12 02:26:00 - [3] - Quote ok so real life ars are good out to 300 meters burst, we are past that. with a few exceptions smgs are good out to100m, current smgs range from ** I could ** that far too well over 100m. snipers 1km is one hell of a shot, I regularly hit clear across maps. rails well we are going for realism so we have no frame of reference but invest the skills and I guarenty they go plenty far. every weapon in this game exceeds reality. so I dont know what you want. as it is ARs are at the limit of their usefullness as far as range, rails can out shoot forge, and a fully leveled SMG can go toe to toe with an AR at most ranges.

SoTa PoP Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 1772	Posted - 2012.12.12 04:32:00 - [6] - Quote Am I to understand you want realism from your weapons in a SCI FI GAME? You realize if we went for realism every weapon would be OHK. Armies would be pointless, and the threat of orbital bombardment would either force most planets to surrender or live underground. If you want realism - go play CoD. Me, I want more toys to play with that are balanced - realism takes a back seat to gameplay. But I understand your point - there's still a lot to do around here. And CCP wants us to suffer as much as possible before giving us any light.

Lol nope. ^ This is why people think this forum is littered with trolls rather then people who just want attention. This guy obviously can't see how CoD is more realistic compared to DUST. Must be a real stretch.

Must be a real stretch. Realistically no game can ever come close to real combat. Arma, Operation Flashpoint and a few others like is maybe about as close as you'll get.
