Besides the obvious conclusion of they have no idea what they are doing and this was their amateur attempt at balance is there another explanation?

http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/newtlaws/U2L1a.cfmPlease also see additional laws outlined for a comprehensive understanding of why "unbalanced force" (i.e. gravity) causes thing to stop moving.
I was waiting some some wannbee nerd to post something like this.
Try to remember its a video game and since there is no bullet arc then that makes you look like a reet. |

As far as I'm concerned, the coming changes will allow every weapon to have an optimal range, effective range and an absolute range. I guess the absolute range is where the bullet losses its overall lethality altogether where as the distance between the optimal and absolute determines how much damage the bullet loses before becoming useless.
Im talking about I dont even remember the last game I played where you couldnt shoot someone you could clearly see due to range.

Im talking about I dont even remember the last game I played where you couldnt shoot someone you could clearly see due to range. Ok... You completely lost me here. I have no clue what you are talking about. Just because you can see them doesn't always mean they are within lethal range. Even futuristic plasma bullets have a tiny life expectancy once they leave the chamber of a gun.
Umm name one other game with the same mechanic? |

I was waiting some some wannbee nerd to post something like this. Try to remember its a video game and since there is no bullet arc then that makes you look like a reet. So if the "it's just a videogame and reality need not apply" excuse is valid, why did you make this thread? They have ranges as a tool for balance and weapon distinction as well as to assist in giving the game some scale.
Is that a fancy way of saying they are so bad at making a game their best idea to balance the guns were to just put a magical drop off range instead of using recoil and bullet drop as a means to actually balance it properly?
Thought so. |

Guys im trying to talk about reality.

With full multiplayer LAN and Internet support. King of the hill, node capture and straight deathmatch modes. EDIT: same gameplay though.
AHh I missed that and the first one I played was the one I talked about.
I think that was my first online FPS if memory serves me.
Awesome game none the less. |

For comparisons sake (and to keep on topic), my best sniper kill was a 1.5 kilometre headshot.
A game from the 90s has better balance than this mess lol.
