My rifles ammo was empty, so with a quick reflex I shot this dude at close range with my AT weapon. Now, I’m no forensic ballistics expert, but I did take ballistics in college, and I am pretty sure this dude would have been vaporized, along with myself. However, as you can see, the dude simply started to bandage himself. WTF is the damage level with an AT weapon at close range? Even if I had missed and hit the wall, his testicles and the rest of his body would be scattered acrost a couple time zones.
This is separate, but for some reason, I could not build a rally point. I tried twice here and both times it told me I was too close to an object, which was complete bs.
My experience with any real world AT weapons or grenade launchers, they had to complete so many revolutions or x number of meters to arm. Just a thought, did they factor something like that into the game weapon?
I know far more about gun ballistics then AT weapon ballistics. AT weapons were never discussed in my college ballistics class. The AT round did explode though, I got that on my photo. I did get the kill nonetheless, I assassinated him while he was bandaging himself with my 1911.
I think the dev’s have made the bazookas like that to stop players from spamming the map with the weapon. I have aimed them into a room full of bot’s before now, only to kill just one of them. I guess it makes sense really, as there is enough artillery and plane bombs blowing up all over the place.
For example, a LAW rocket will give you some really nasty and possibly lethal burns but will not explode until 33ft is reached. Again, not saying I am right just a thought. Just chatting, certainly not arguing!!! I have fired some but not the resident expert either …
I really don’t care to be honest, I just thought it was funny to shoot someone point blank with a bazooka and he was basically just scratched. I have shot at people at times with an AT weapon with minimal kills, and shooting this dude at close range was not my first choice, but I was playing bolt action rifles and my five rounds were expended and I didn’t have time to reload before he was going to get a shot off, and the AT weapon comes up before the pistol, so that’s what I went with. Ideally, I would have rather shot him with my 1911, but, I took what option presented itself first. I figured I would die, but I would take him out with me. I guess I still won since I still had time to roll to my 1911.
One thing I have noticed when playing in custom matches is that enemy bots get wounded, drop to a knee to bandage themselves and 75% of the time they pop back up in less then a second. So, they have super healing powers as well.
