I know that bullets will penetrate certain cover in HoS...but what about bullet penetration on bodies? Will rifle rounds go straight through bodies so that it is possible to get a two-for-one kill?
Bullet penetration......basically it hurts like all buggery if it hits You in the wrong spot...and if it hits You in the right spot then You won't have anymore worries......On a serious note a 2 for 1 kill is extremely rare because of the Spritzer type round commonly used during WWII, they where designed to Tumble (Hence the name Tumbler Round) and smash through Flesh and bone.I know that bullets will penetrate certain cover in HoS...but what about bullet penetration on bodies?

While there are documented one offs against this rule I would say it is not a regular occurrence...I'm sure others will disagree...but they've never been shot
I know there is a mod in Ost that makes MG and rifle bullets go through bodies so multiple people can be killed by the same bullet, but they had no concept of stoppage, so theoretically if an entire team lined up in a straight line, a single rifle round would go through all of them
Yes, in the stock version of Ost, bullets stopped after hitting a single body part, but there was a special mod made for Ost that could be added onto any server so that bullets went through bodies like they werent even there, I only saw two servers ever run the modFar as I recall, ostfront bullets would stop at the first thing they hit.
Another thing I want to see as far as bullet penetration is realistic interaction with doors, so say if you shoot up the hinges, the door will fall off, or if you shoot the lock, the door will just swing open by someone running into it.
I'm not sure you can open doors like that. This old box o' truth shows how much harder it is to open a lock with a gun than what you see in the movies. Not exactly a scientific study, but that's all I've got. And if you shot the hinges of a door I think you'd be more likely to just jam them by pinching or bending the pin. To get the door to fall off you'd have to almost completely destroy the metal of the hinge.
If my memory is correct on ostfront you can shoot and kill 4 men in one shoot from a bolt. I know at least 3 men as I once did it in one game. (there is small change that this was the mod version but I am almost positive it was ostfront)
