I take you're not aware we do have a leg/limb meta.

No, I was not. I dont believe I've ever encountered somebody specifically going for limbs in PR. I am well aware of the 'limb meta' in tarkov. I personally try to go for the chest in PR as much as possible, because the chest hitbox is more reliable. I have shot and stabbed peoples legs through well before, if that counts.

I don't think you know what a "battle rifle" is...

A semi-automatic(possibly select-fire) rifle, firing a full size .30 caliber cartridge. With or Without detachable magazines. That I believe is the modern accepted definition. By that reasoning the M1 Garand, G43, FAL, G3, M14, Etc are all considered battle rifles.

You're seriously gonna tell me that you choose to go for the legs in PR when chest shots work just as well and are more reliable.

I guess the U.S. military and other NATO militaries don't have a "battle rifle"...

How do you not know about this??

Yes, I shoot the legs and they die.

Are you seriously telling me that you are purposely aiming for the area covered in material made to stop bullets?

I've never had good results going for the legs in PR. It's much easier to hit a moving target in the large rectangular torso, than the long skinny legs. There's also a chance you might hit the head or arms. I only go for leg shots on stationary targets.

I play tarkov like I play PR. Up-close and Personal. And PR is not Tarkov. There is no pressing need for the leg meta. In tarkov some armor can tank a whole mag of ak bullets. In PR it may take an extra bullet or few. I quit tarkov because of such reasons. I couldn't stand the power creep. And also the tarkov devs are not including an arena mode. So fuck them.
