No shit, You'll learn that one quickly!!! Hilarious title.
I think that video has been posted before aswell.
But,....
Which weapons go through the metal sheet fences?
Can bullets (50.) go through brick walls in BF2?
Do bombs? Such as the hidding in a shed from arty?

No, material penetration is not working correctly in 0.5.

The penetration issue has been fixed with most calibre's of rifle on most materials.

Just as well you can't get into most buildings in BF2.. insurgents would just dominate the US completely if they could..
ak47 > m16

If there are two walls separated, will the bullet go through both walls in BF2 engine?
As in shoot through every walls on the map, to the other side?

In penetration, not accuracy.

And the search function is as workable today as it was then. Seriously. I think last month the thread name was the exact same too.

But what would you search for? Therein is the conundrum of the Internet. You must know what you are looking for, before you can find it.

On Al Basrah, I tried shooting through the lockers in that room at the facility at an insurgent and the rounds did not penetrate. I and the enermy, at various points, tried shooting at each other through the walls of that building and the rounds did not penetrate. Heck the C4 blast that they had been putting on the side of the building by the window did not penetrate the lockers. A similar situation occurred for wood on maps, where the wood structures (such as the one south of the facility and the one in the buildings south of facility, which is the one I am citing, seemed to give the enemy protection from the M16's bullets.
Is there any chance that this will be changed in v0.6?
