Too much calculating for the server. The tranquility server is already having to deal with massive amounts of data in a single minute. Think about. In a single minute...

1. Tens of thousands of transactions will have been completed. Be it exchange contracts, market buy orders and sell orders, direct player-to-player ISK transfers.

2. God knows how many missiles and rounds of ammunition are being fired from every ship in New Eden in this time frame. Not to mention having to take into account each player's skill levels that effect speed, flight time, rate of fire, damage, damage type, etc. Imagine a fleet of Drakes unleashing tons of missiles in a single battle.

3. Thousands of ships destroyed. Every wreck generated for every destroyed ship with the appropriate amount of loot dropped according to what each specific ship has fitted at the time of its demise.

4. The location and speed of every ship in New Eden.

5. Hundreds of thousands of gate jumps.

This is all just for starters. This is not accounting planetary interaction management, production chains, POS management, mining ships and the amount of ore mined, number of NPC rats and their AI, etc.

Bad enough DUST 514 will be adding to that. Bullet trajectory is just too much even with better hardware.

"[FEEDBACK] Snipers and Experimental Sniper - feedback on snipers and their possible fixes in the future to make them more dynamic.
Update: The dev team is working on improving the sniper recoil bug, expect that in later updates. We are also looking at sniper rifles with ballistics properties. "
If you have it for snipers, that means the code already exists and you only have to tweak it a bit for other weapons.
So please when you add sniper ballistics, add ballistics to all the other weapons.
And remove those dissapearing bullets, they're annoying, instead make a firing cone, after optimal range the cone would be too big to hit something reliably.

I think they mentioned they were working on it somewhere.

I hope the long range minmatar sniper and rifles will have ballistic arc though.

And the rail based sniper rifle needs travel time, bullet drop would be smaller then dispersion on a real life bullet based sniper so can be ignored. But a running target could travel a few meters in the 1/4 second travel time to max range.

Sniper rifle would have 28cm or 11 inches of drop at 600m at listed muzzle speed, standard issue u.s. army sniper have 1-3 moa or up to 20.6 in or 52cm of dispersion. So the bullet drop is negligible for rail based sniper, if one wanted it could be faked by having any dispersion only lower and never raise the shot. And if there is no dispersion why worry about the drop. Even a moving heavy could move 86cm during flight time though.
