Game engine limitations?
Apologies in advance if this I has already been answered or is obvious but I haven’t played the game since before Xmas nor can I bring myself to boot the game back up. I’m genuinely curious as ...

@CountSero Having correct physics may result in buildings not getting destroyed, because the projectile just goes through the wall, and leaves a hole, but doesn't take down the whole facade, like the current mechanics do.
Currently the damage mechanics in BF2042 are pretty messed up, imho worse than in other titles.
.50 cal shots from the NTW-50 kill instantly. The same round from a vehicle barely scratch a soldier.
Lis Rocket doesn't kill a soldier anymore, unless its a head shot, but does more damage to a vehicle than the NTW-50 round.
Event if the engine could use better physics, with all these exceptions if would still feel wrong.

@kregora
but that’s not the problem of the engine it is Cleary a design decision by DICE here because we already know that the engine is capable of it
The Nerf of the NTW was short after release of the game, you could kill a vehicle with around 3-4 shots.
Now this gun is only good for one shot players (I don’t know if the anti-material bullets are still good against vehicles)
I mentioned this in another thread, that DICE needs to learn again how to Balance.

- @CountSero Yes, the anti-material rounds still do damage to vehicles, but it is so miniscule it is just a waste of ammo, the regeneration of vehicle health is faster than the damage inflicted after factoring in both individual round reload times and magazine changes. Unless a vehicle is already near 'death', don't waste your time.
