m320 severely underpowered.

Recommended Posts

The test I used to prove this was placing an Ifrit at 400m and placing a shot directly at the driver through the window with no angle. I got bounce after bounce, I emptied my clip and he drove away. the counterpart, the lynx can penetrate the front glass in one shot and kill the driver.

My issue with this is the real life version of the m320 may not be an anti material weapon but surpasses the kinetic energy of a 50cal at 400m.

anyone else have an opinion?

Likely a "bug" in the config of the ammo types; penetration values in the ammo configs are by a "caliber" value (which is very misleading and completely independent of bullet caliber), not actual kinetic energy. Make a ticket to attempt to bring attention to it.

OK, I won't be making a ticket as my tracker's bugged, but if someone wishes to, here is some citable information:

The .408 Cheytac round has a "caliber" value of 1.5, while the .50 BMG fired from the GM6 Lynx has a value of 2.1. However, it's worth noting that the GM6's .50 BMG round is an APDS round, and the normal .50 BMG only has a "caliber" value of 1.75. These values may be compared to the 7.62x51mm NATO round having a "caliber" of 1 (the definition of "1 caliber" by BI is the penetration of one such bullet; a "caliber" of 2 has twice the penetration of this round).

.408 Ball config: http://browser.six-projects.net/cfg_ammo/B_408_Ball/config?version=70

.50 BMG APDS config: http://browser.six-projects.net/cfg_ammo/B_127x108_APDS/config?version=70

.50 BMG Ball config: http://browser.six-projects.net/configclasses/CfgAmmo%3EB_127x108_Ball/config?version=70

Changes may be made or not made based on the above information.
