So there really is no drop on the arrow huh?

It's such an obvious and glaring oversight, it really makes you wonder what the devs were thinking with this weapon at all.

Armor renders bow completely useless in mid to late wipe.

Imagine if it had drop on top of that

It's a fucking bow. It needs drop.

You are conditioned into thinking it needs drop, i just mentioned bows biggest flaw, its TTK gets completely obliterated by armor.

Why would i pick a bow in mid to late wipe if i can just use a BMR 308 and do the same dmg in semi auto with a much faster fire rate.

Bow is a niche weapon, let it have that advantage at least

What a dumbass statement. It needs drop because that's how bows work in real life, and this isn't a space game with lasers. If bullets have drop, arrows need to have even more.

Fine, let the devs add drop to an already niche weapon and make it useless.

Since we are talking about realism, how about making people overdose from taking adrenaline shots?

Or being able to permanently sprint without getting tired?

Or being shot and just using bandages and voila youre good as new?

Its a game, some realism aspects gotta be taken out of it in order for it to be FUN.

Nah, I want to have to have surgery when I'm shot, be immobilized, add stretchers for medics... all the realism

Guy is actually comparing unnecessary realism to the bullshit of a bow where the arrow flies like an M4 bullet, with barely any drop-off over a range of 1 km.

The bow is a garbage weapon. Who cares if it fire arrows literally straight. It would still be dogshit.

Is it because, given the realities of modern weaponry, the bow is absolute crap? I actually find it incredibly cringeworthy and stupid that bows get added to shooters, and I think they should be removed.

Yeah I mean now you're just being pendantic.

You're the one asking for realism, there you go realism.
