    Valve's New Paid-for Mods

    As a fan of fallout 1 and 2 I HATED fallout 3 which felt lazy, poorly thought out and poorly assembled. New Vegas however in its own right was well constructed game with very dynamic mechanics, and a story that is compelling and actually creates real results from the player actions as well as...

    Militaria

    I"m not sure about that.... Course that's civilian modified so it doesn't really count a militaria I guess lol. The only thing that actually dissapoints me is that the stock is still plastic. *shrug* but Turnbull is known for metal finishes not wood. Reminds me, I've been meaning to make a...

    Ballistic penetration

    I think it would be bolt to be one of the few games where bullets actually penetrate objects like they should. Think your safe behind that tree? Nope, the enemy lmg is gonna rip right through and take you out. Realistic penetration would make gameplay very compelling and also would make people...

    Ideas

    Certainly I'd agree that the training today isn't the same as yesteryear but tradition reaches a long way. I was just illustrating a point of where we were both coming from. Such as your view of giving soldiers finer sight controls vs mine. I think we are merging more on agreement here. The...

    Ideas

    Thought this would be an interesting addition when debating marksmanship training and accuracy. USMC basic marksmanship training: German modern: (its hard to find one where it isn't cross training with us forces since I don't know german) You notice the huge differences in training even to...

    The problem stands as thus. I'm certified and trained, as well as HIGHLY experienced with firearms and automatic weapons of all sorts. I can even post my documents on the matter. Your quoting an unknown figure, from an unknown source. In my near decade of experience and training I have NOT ONCE...

    Ideas

    I agree with Siben on this one. If its a factory quality control test then it is not being fired by a human being which is a different situation altogether. Those are machine accuracy tests which is different. With a big friggin vice holding the weapon certain factors don't come into play as...

    Realistic suggestions!

    There is indeed a lot to consider. For example considering that I know that the Mauser rifle itself was made out of low carbon steel(1020-1035 depending on the country, year ect), I highly doubt that the steel helmets of the German army were anything more than mild steel swaged into shape(the...

    Realistic suggestions!

    Sometimes, you believe you know something then someone contests it. When you posted that video my emediate response was "well, even a wicker basket will stop a bullet given sufficient range." Yet there was enough nagging me that I booted up some calculators to look at the ballistics of the...

    Hope this isin't too prying

    While having fun fiddling around with crytek making my own walther p38 model I noticed the traction wars team model for the weapon. Its very excellently detailed with actual polygons. Is it too prying to ask how many polygons are in the model?
