So if you don't mind please either change the name of this mod from project reality to "project I hate the M-16". Or you could just possibly consider giving the M-16 REALISTIC recoil. The barrel doesn't even jump, it goes backward. You'll notice that the Ak-47 is tossed around all over the place. So why is it that within two bursts from the M-16, I'm shooting 20 degrees above the target?

Yeah, what is up with that. I almost hate using that gun just because of the sounds.

I agree, 5.56 weapons should have reduced recoil. However, you all need to consider that PR defines damage by round not by weapon.

Most rifles in 0.6 have new sounds, I hope everyone will like the sound I gave to the QBZ95.

Not saying your completely off base, but the guy in the video is also holding the gun still....you have to do that in the game too...

As you fire bring the aim downward, keeping the gun level...I would think that limply holding and m16 and firing away would end up with you looking above your target, same as in the game.

The m-16's recoil IRL is negligible. As for its effectivenes in game, i do prefer it over the G-3 and the QBZ, always grab it when i can, provided it's with a good kit. If you aim well, the round damage shouldn't matter.

Just gotta practice with it. I used to blow with it and now it's my favorite gun out of all. The main reason people really don't like the gun is because it doesn't go full auto and it doesn't have a scope. Otherwise it is by far the most accurate and stable weapon our of them all. Practice Practice Practice!

Mucchhh better but I noticed the gun still "cuts" itself in half when using the iron sights... Will that get fixed?

I think the devs are too swamped at the moment

Aiming is everything.

When you shoot, instead of bring your mouse up, bring it down to control the recoil. Single shot is the best way to kill, even at close range. Use it effectively. Control and accuracy is everything.

People talk about pulling the mouse down, it works to some extent but IMO is still pretty ineffective.

I'd at least like to see the single shot recoil reduced, as another thread goes in to.

Jaymz I love the sound. However could you increase the sound 2 notches.

This is a firearm we are shooting.

Think as the sights as the pedastal of death. Try to place you opponents head upon it before you chop it off. I use Single shot now at all distances with the M16 due to feeling it makes hit box detection worse, only in my mind though

.
So aim a little low and dead center. at CQ, just pump single shot into them as you can get off more rounds than burst and more accurately.
Thats how i roll.

In most cases....I can take out targets at range FAR better with an AK47 or 101
at range.
This is my pecking order of top guns
IN MY OPINION, these are just the guns I seem to be able to just rip people with.
QBZ95/G3
L85
Carbines
AKs both 47 and 101
M16
The Pistols---But some times they can rock, P226 is awsome!

But Its not so bad you can't use it....its just a slight annoyance then anything. Its still deadly, Just not as deadly as some of the other rifles.

I'm sure it will all get sorted out by .7

In 0.6 The levels are adjusted according to caliber, just like in reality. So the AK47 and G3 are the loudest. That said, the QBZ95 actually fires a sligthly larger round than the a 5.56 so I guess there' no harm in cranking it up a notch (which I'm doing right now).

Agreed, I like the QBZ best too. Although, I haven't played enough rounds of PR yet to get a good feel of the others. For me it'd be QBZ, AK-101, G3, M16. But I have yet to use the carbines, the L85, and the 47. Any suggestions on which to try first?
