Why do I need 3 hits to kill?

One problem with HC that has no possibility of health+protection above 30 points is that the choice between power vs rof vs accuracy in your choice of weapon is irrelevant. The only one left is choosing accuracy over ammo count, depending on if you aim or spray. As it stands now, there is the possibility that power and rof are also factors when making the choice. Also, because some option chosen by the enemy causes you to sometimes die doesnt mean it is overpowered. It means it is still possible to do everything right yet still lose.

 

Now if AP is not behaving as it should under some unexpected conditions that is an issue that needs to be dealt with. But I have seen no evidence of this. I would need to see both a clear example of it not working along with seeing that the player does in fact have the perk at that time. I cannot accept anything because someone says so. If evidence shows this then its a matter of going through what happened at the time and what players did. As much information as possible that would allow me to reproduce the effect.

 

Frankly its like deciding whether or not someone is hacking. Concrete evidence is required. Maybes arent good enough. I am certain all admins here who have dealt with hacking accusations know this very well. They want verifiable proof or will take no action.

Understood. I have my new hard drive now, will do the install over the weekend then I can re-start with recording all my games. 

 

Well, that's the idea Sammy we have come to accept that in Hardcore there is no recovery, no bleeding out. As far as protection is concerned, maybe they can put on an ugly helmet.

For Info:

 

Going through code today to account for possible differences between local mod and the server. So next server restart small change to see if the line giving perk armor was doing the correct amount for hardcore as listed in the server configs. If it wasnt, dont expect miracles or a huge difference with the change. Maybe enough to account for one round.  The default perk armor amount for hardcore is 60. However the server should be setting a custom value of 30. If this is part of the issue then I apologize. Major RL changes the last few months and may not have uploaded some updates.

will it print the armor value in console? I can keep an eye out for it.

[Sammy]

On spawn? It will tell you on the hud next to the helmet icon.

[iboomboom]

Does it tell only me for me or other players too?

[Sammy]

Just yours. Just as it doesnt tell you the health of the other player.

I glue my left mouse button and run through the field and to see if I make it until I need to reload. I depend on my teammates a lot when I do that

Last year I tried that with the game DayZ, but I glued the "W" for that game. It really helps!
