You cannot shake your fist, people in SW don't shake their fists

Never noticed that, probably because we at the lore department complain about every little detail

Most of the time

"Mr. Realism" doesnt think a headshot equals a death? lol
Mr. Realism never found it any fun to to be killed in one shot by a sniper.
Ah, well only thinking of yourself leads down the dark path. To be a game developer , you must only think of others.....
What if you want to start a Star Wars mod and all of "the others" tell you it's a very bad idea?

but 1.5 hit from any other gun is fine?

since when are you all of the others?

I'm shocked that this is even a discussion.

Then you'll love my idea about close combat-only blasters .

What I love in most FPS games is how most guns, even machine guns, don't kill with a head-shot, but the magic sniper rifle takes you down with a single bullet just because head-shots are fun.

But OK, I digress.

Why am I getting the funny feeling your picking and choosing your 'realism' to suit YOUR wants and needs?
You mean like absolutely everyone else? Yup, I sure as Heck am. In this case, I believed game-play would be strenghtened. And hey, you've got bullets bouncing off of helmets, etc. You can technically survive a head-shot, you know.

Kinda like technically, the M95 is an anti-matter rifle and it can kill jeeps and split people in half, so no you cannot survive a hit from that one.

Besides, if Han Solo's pistol can kill an ST in one shot your heavy powered DLT-20a sure can, and the disruptor kinda disrupts your molecules

I'm all for the sniper rifles we have in our build currently. They've received a lot of tender care and attention to bring them to a point of awesomeness. All of our testers are reporting they are quite nice to operate and work with. They even have some interesting benefits that regular sniper rifles don't, though I won't go into details just now. However I will say is at this time they play like no other sniper rifle you've used to date and I'm still looking to go back and add even more flexibility and ability to them later. They're definately not your father's BF2 sniper rifle rubbish

on the subject of "the others" we still have to release first bandu before we can compare
