[VEOH][/VEOH]ok so i'm sure you devs allready know this, but when someone is hit by a 50, they dont just explode, they fly.

Live fire on live targets, Afghanistan, Canadian sniper (filmed by spotter)

this'll probably add to the imerseivness of the game for the units being fired upon, truely scare the **** out of them when they see their squadleader fly after a loud bang, now you know for sure it's a 50 and not a DM

So is this a suggestion or what?.I've seen this video before on youtube and its not real people being shot at its wild animals being hunted. If you paused at 0:03 ,the target looks nothing like a human and its lying on top of a rock.

Those were simply small animals that probably weighed less than the bullet that hit them and kinda pisses me off that small animals are slaughtered like this just to "entertain".

Last time I checked, that video is fake. It's actually video from a hunting expedition. It's not a .50 cal rifle they're shooting and those are not terrorist, unless you consider varmints terrorist. Cheers'

People don't fly when hit by bullets. simple physics: every action has an equal and opposite reaction. In other words if someone went flying from being hit by a bullet so would the person who fired it.

Those are rock chucks, the rifle is a .223/5.56, it is called 'varminting.'

ETA: BringerOfD, under what circumstances did you come upon that video? I hate to imagine someone typing "Raghead +Sniper" into search engines...

No, bodies don't "fly" at all when hit by gunfire. A 12.7mm round passing through a human is liable to leave a huge hole and/or take off a limb, but it won't throw a body around.

Sir Isaac Newton says your suggestion is unrealistic.
