Penetrative kill?

[rmr]

What does that mean?

I googled it, but I don't know how to get them? I have tried shooting through crates but haven't had much luck getting penetrative kills. Thanks

nothing complicated, just shoot through wood at your enemy.
play the first mission, quck save your game after you tag an enemy that is about to go behind cover that you can shoot through, kill him with the penetrative shot.
reload the quick save you just did, and repeat. you will get your upgrade fast if that is what you are looking for. (save---- shoot-load-shoot-load...)

I tag the enemy and walk behind tents or shoot though floors ect, anything that go”a though a item will give you that, wood, truck doors, tents, ect

Shots went through an object, usually something wood, like crates, fences or trees.

Oddly enough, shooting a guy through another guy doesn't count.

Doesn’t?

At least it count as double kill.

Got it.
Got all I needed in the Viaduct mission.
Thanks

"(save---- shoot-load-shoot-load...)" What the heck!?
Imagine how much time that would've saved me maxing the Luger's recoil if I knew!!
(run like a mad man with extreme heartrate and kill 30 people, (and the mastery skin is killing 10 by shooting their grenades!))
Now I see some quick grinding tomorrow to get the last damn shots in.. had no idea it worked that way

Hiding inside a tent after you've tagged all local enemies works great—but for SOME damned reason, shooting through foliage doesn't count, contrary to what armchair gurus claim. Sandbags apparently stop bullets. Shooting through crates (not multiple crates), cloth, doors, and wooden sniper / lookout perches count. The downside of that: The enemy can shoot YOU with penetrating shots!

Then there's the really weird thing where you shoot through I-beams and girders, but THAT doesn't register as penetrative. Call me stupid, but THAT sounds like penetration to me!

NOTE: Oddly enough, you get better results when you DON'T compensate for range, when you're shooting long distance. The ballistics physics in this game are REALLY weird, NOTHING at all like real life, and not consistent in-game. But, if you can't get an assisted sight at one position, shift laterally, or move in closer. Snap-zoom-empty lung works best.
