bullet drop with sniper rifle...

Jolly · 2013-04-16, 17:17

IDK if it's mentioned before.
When I am using the Sniper Rifle, and snipering stationary target, I use them like normal sniper in PR, but I can never hit the target.
Is there any differences between Normal PR and Falkland Minimod?

Even using Militia's rifle, I can kill from very far range.
But in falkland.
No.

I believe I read somewhere that the sniper/marksman on Falklands is bugged... I could be wrong though.

Didnt even noticed that. I feel it droped too much.

BTW, Nice Game tonight.

But we've had a suck KD ratio.

It's bugged, it's using bolt action rifle deviation, instead of sniper rifle deviation.

So u mean we dont need to consider Bullet drop?
Dont really get it...

Sniper rifle in Falklands works like other bolt action rifles in non-sniper variants in PR, so it's as accurate as Enfield, so it's not possible to provide accurate fire over long distance.

As already mentioned here and a bunch of other places, the snipers in PR:F have seriously bugged deviation, making the sniper less accurate than the marksman, probably even less than normal rifles right now. It isn't a matter of accounting for bullet drop, just the bullet is going to go pretty much anywhere but the target location right now.

Will be fixed for next release.

Oh, Thanks!

Was too lazy to search it.
Now the thread can be locked.

I may be stupid and having a senior moment. But , if memory seves me correct; the Lee Enfield is "accurate" to 1,000 yards. At these distances we were allways taught to fire slightly high to allow for drop. Why modify the game to compensate for reality?

Rifles still have it's bulletdrop, but because of bugged high deviation, you can't use Falklands's sniper rifles at ranges, when you need to take it into account. Afaik bulletdrop starts from 600m for all sniper rifles.
