The blow-back operation combined with heavier bolts & stiffer springs tends to be a fire-rate control mechanism rather than an issue of terminal velocity. You shouldn't lose too much velocity in the bullet because the cartridges typically do not have that much pressure them so bleed-off from the initial blow-back operation shouldn't affect terminal velocity in any significant way. I mean it's an open-bolt blowback sub-machine gun. It will be my rifle till I find or buy my first gauss rifle. When i modded it up to level 3 gun nut, level 3 rifleman perks it was doing just as much damage as an upgunned hunting rifle, with the same extras built into it.Īnd it only weighs half as much as the factory rifle.

I got a high powered, legendary, violent pipe gun, sniper rifle tomight. Most of the shots are going to go over the would be victim's head. 45's has a much lighter breech, easier to move, the bullet gets more velocity than the Thompson.īut honestly, if you've fired one hose gun, you've fired them all.

Originally posted by danconnors:The Thompson loses a lot of damage (and bullet velocity) because a lot of its gas is used moving the massive breech back to eject the cartridge. I have always found the ballistics in games to be a point of annoyance, it's easier to fudge numbers and downplay ballistics in a game than it is to build a more complicated gameplay mechanic that balances out ballistics. Small bonus, usually since the suppressor functions as a barrel extension you do gain some accuracy as a trade-off. 45ACP since it's already subsonic, but does affect a 9x19mm and 7.62x51mm cartridge. This doesn't really affect a round such as the. This is more prevelant in rifle cartidges than pistol ones.Īnother example is powder charge, this is more prevelant in how suppressors are portrayed in games, the damage reduction you see with suppressed weapons in games is actually because to achieve a quieter firing weapon you reduce the powder charge to subsonic velocities and thus ballistic strength is reduced as well. If the barrel is too short then the bullet may not reach terminal velocity (varies on the round) and thus it is not traveling at the maximum speed designed for that round. Technically there is some things that can affect the damage of a ballistic round. You can make the bullet more stable, accurate and give it better range characteristics but damage is not a physical option. There is nothing you can do to a weapon to make its bullet do more damage. 45 pipe revolver shot should do the same damage as a.

Damage should only be dependent upon the type of round it fires meaning, a. Originally posted by Celtic Frost:gun damage is absolutely retarded in the game.
