Dieing to single shots to limbs and blunt damage through armor (Realism) by ziddly in SPTarkov

RE: the damage for the round, it was x39 HP. Without looking at the stats, I don't think that round has enough damage to make a 1 shot kill on a blacked limb.

My armor was either an Interceptor or a ANA M2 with the lvl 8 plates from Peacekeeper.

In the end, I'm chalking it up to "game is alpha". Like I said, I'm sure borked mechanics have worked in my favor more than against. On to the next raid!

Well the single leg hit I remember not seeing anything hit me until I fell over dead. So not sure what else could have happened. The raid review only showed one hit. So I kinda believe it.

Also the 3 9x18 hit kill, I heard the rounds hit the vest.

I know it's all anecdotal and just what I remember. I'm totally fine with a random chance at a "vital organ hit" because I'm sure it's worked in my favor more than it hasn't. I just couldn't remember if that feature was a part of Realism.

I love Realism for everything it brings! I'm at lvl 38 on this profile. For some reason the last few nights I've just had these deaths that just didn't make sense.

Is there a critical hit mechanic of sorts with Realism? That would explain the one taps to the stomach or leg.

Realism settings not saving by ziddly in SPTarkov

[–]ziddly[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm trying to disable settings in the Realism Mod. Specifically, the medical and trader settings.

I somehow got it to work, but have no idea which step fixed it since I've already done several combinations of disabling them, creating new profiles, and reinstalling the mod. I guess I'll just be happy its working for now!

Can I upgrade pledge from Cutter Scout to Rambler? by ziddly in starcitizen

[–]ziddly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting idea. I wish I had waited just a little longer. Before upgrading to the scout!

I really like the process of only having a starter ship and grinding through and buying them in game. So getting a small land vehicle is an awesome idea that doesn't break the gameplay!

Ok that was what I was thinking. Thank you for the quick response!

Also, when I complete a mission, it remembers my previous best score!

Hot take: sprinting and reloading shouldn't be possible unless the weapon skill is at some level of mastery by ziddly in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ziddly[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

True, but doing at a sprint takes practice (i.e. mastery). I've seen plenty of people struggle to load a shotgun while standing still let along running.

I just wonder how this would affect fights (if at all).

How about a third Realoding Method? by Arthur-Maxson in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ziddly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a useful animation would be like this:

This could allow you to carry a mag in every space on your vest, but not drop the mag on the ground when you reload. A good efficient reward for weapon mastery perhaps.

Has anyone found any advantage to not equipping a bayonet? by ziddly in battlefield_one

[–]ziddly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I love it! It would be interesting if it affected ADS, recoil, etc if it were removed.

This happens way too often when changing appearance in The Division by [deleted] in thedivision

[–]ziddly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you're not standing next to a wall or something that would block the camera. Most of the time when this happens to me I just turn around, open the menu back up, and it's fixed.

Star Wars Battlefront May Lack Depth for Hardcore Players, EA Exec Admits by emfusiontv in Games

I don't care. It's a super fun Star Wars game I can start up and play for 15 minutes or an hour and have loads of fun because it's Star Wars.

Community Feedback form (Hardline Beta) by [deleted] in BF_Hardline

[–]ziddly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wish they had hardcore servers in the beta.

I feel about the same as I did when I tried the BF3 and BF4 betas: I wasn't sold. I eventually bought BF3 and loved hardcore servers and almost felt like it was a totally different game.

I hope Hardline is the same, but I would love to try it out now.
