Increased Bullet Penetration

[Raneman]

Is it me, or is bullet penetration a bit low?

I really want more penetration for MG's, so assaulting things like the Ticket Booth on Commissar's is a bit more viable.


Also, penetration works on a whitelisted texture basis. Why not make it work on a blacklist of textures that can't be penetrated?

i was testing the penetration of bolts and smg's the other day. they seemed fine. not sure about the smg though. it should be the same as the bolt guns. not sure about the mg-34 but the dp28 used the same basic round as the mosin.

Agreed, penetration seems too low. For example the brick walls facing the D objective of apartements. You should be able to punch through that, right? Well, seems you can't.

what gun did you think was going to shoot through it?

It's brick.
Pretty much everything except smgs and pistols.

Do you think brick is bulletproof?

Take the 7.62x54mm cartridge in the Mosin Nagant, travelling at 865 m/s.

Sorry to break it to you, but that would penetrate most of the materials in the game, but for some reason it doesn't.

don't put words in my mouth and please do not talk down to me. also, i wasn't asking you. i was asking Proud_God. that's why i used the quote. i'm sure he doesn't need you to speak for him either.

yeah i know a mosin can shoot through a brick wall. i have a safe full of them. they can shoot through a half inch thick steel plate with steel-core surplus ammo. bricks would barely slow the bullet down.
he didn't say he was wondering why a mosin wouldn't shoot through a brick wall. so i asked what gun he thought should do it. since you couldn't possibly answer my question, why did you even try?

The all mighty MG34.

that should have no problems whatsoever! i think i'm gonna have to have another petetration test to see what works now.
