SlapHappy Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I've noticed in playing a lot with my test scenarios that the MMG 7.62's tend to fire high like small arms such as the m16's and m4's do. However, the HMG 50 caliber has a much more effective trait of firing low and stitching bullet trails directly into groups of oncoming enemy soldiers. Besides the higher caliber, this tends to be the main reason why Deuce Ma is so much more effective than the MMGs. Is this purposeful? Do the small arms and MMGs share a common firing characteristic in the coding that makes them different from the 50 cal? This tendency I observed is primarily based on AI fire....where computer is selecting it's own targets (friendly and enemy). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Isn't this just the ballistic path of the different projectile? If the 50 cal is shooting at long range, it's shells will arc too. At long range for 7.62mm, .50 is just getting warmed up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlapHappy Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 You might have very well nailed it. Hard to say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigduke6 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Also, Ma Deuce will cut through body armor, pretty much at any range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
