Why did we change 1.4.8 damage changes?

Now that I felt curious into ballistics and stuff like that , I've looked 1.4.8 update that made the damage changes more realistic. It was an improvement in my opinion and I don't understand why it was removed. 9mm deserved the damage it deserves,556 too and 762 also.

I didn't see any problem but improvement. I don't think it was balance because even insurgents had AKs which is 762 with alot of punching power to counter conventional forces that use 556

This is my opinion . What do you guys think? I personally would like this new damage changes back.

lmao where are these imaginary "thousands" of players?

imho the bullet damage changes should have stayed. More realistic that way and forces players to think more strategically.

Cause its a game and not a milsim. Its suposed to be fun, and getting chest 1hk as insurgent against bodyarmored blufor that can stand 3-4 chest shots of 5.45 is not fun. Neither was it fun emptying a whole tube of shotgun into a guy so he could survive and kill you in 1 round. Weapon diversity is one great part about PR, that change killed it.

At least we can agree that the drama, created by it, was fun.

Of course it was fun. People complain about BALANCE and WEAPON VARIETY like 9mm is useless againts armor , pistols are not primary weapons for that reason(deal with it).Pistols don't have much power.

Now ,762x51 and 762x54 were extremely powerful, like they are in real life i guess?

What balance issue? It was great to play every faction even insurgents that don't have body armor, it forced them not to do stupid things.

*shotguns are only effective againts unarmored targets btw
