lmg clipping same position different view

Iam sure CRS is working to fix the problem,, right now first person IE lmg,, sees no berm edge and looks like your clear,, but in fact the gun clips through the IFP,, now the problem is if only the gun sticks out you cannot kill the shooter inside the bullets hit the berm and do not penetrate,, if the shooter that is seeing the IFP is slighly eleveated,, say another berm near by then the defender of the IFP is exposed and can be killed,, but on even terrain the occupant in the IFP is safe ,,except from bombs ,, and planes that attack from above,, we are testing tanks to see if HE or guns can kill the occupant on level ground,, tks

That's not exactly accurate. If you shoot thru the v notch. You are exposed period. Only slightly but you are exposing a minimal target (as it should be). But the other types of cliping allow for no exposure if you get it just right. If you are a tiny bit high, you expose more than in the v notch. Buy n large.

Yeah TOTO is going to massage this thing. I just don't think the clipping is easy enough to do in a live fire environment with any regularity. I still think this is good enough for release today.

To be honest, its pretty good as it is, some tweaking will be needed, but would probably be better getting feedback from the live server for this, as long as a fix can be implemented quickly, if a big clipping issue appears.

My exact thoughts Gecko.

Yokilla ,, yes one can be killed through the slit front but we have found that depolyed properly in the slit and shooter at the IFP is on same level ground you cannot hit the target inside the IFP,, now granted this is a very narrow spectrum but stll its possible,, I do agree its fine for now and fast fix should be made available if players on live server go nuts at it .. tks Yok..
