Drag is still not in BFN and pop cap are saying otherwise...

If you do not know what drag is, drag is suppose to be the system in place to help prevent sniping but currently it's not in the game. I had a conversation with AeterRific that didnt really go anywhere. Telling me that drag is in the game just not noticeable when standing still...

People have gone through the code multiple times and have found no reference to drag. The best example i can show is imp. His drag is suppose to start at 25m (homing pea range) and decreases from 500m/s to 200m/s. This 100% should be noticeable even if you are standing still or not.

Here's the thread if anyone is interested: https://twitter.com/Jacob2of3/status/1234883273572126721

Here is a post about what was actually added to the game back when drag was  "added" https://www.reddit.com/r/PvZGardenWarfare/comments/evzr53/the_real_january_2020_patch_notes_with_detailed/

  • I really don't notice any drag on any character. The only thing close is the arc for Nightcap they added last year but that's a different thing. If it is supposed to be in the game I can't see it on any character, even at extreme ranges. I'd prefer damage dropoff to velocity dropoff anyway.

    @Iron_Guard8  i should of mentioned this in the post but i would much rather have drop-off over drag. I do not like how pop cap did not put drag in the game then tell me that it is in the game when there is plenty of proof that drag is not in the game. You do not even need to look at the code just try it out in game.
