why is it that glaz can shoot through a window?

[commander cool]

but defenders cannot, i mean i have been in perfect positions to kill an enemy only to have the window block me, but glaz can?

[mimizukari]

glaz is a sniper, using a sniper rifle, for one.

[commander cool]

shotgun could easily breach through a window as well.......

[MsCounterMax]

Because that's how the game works, roll with it

[HectorVivis]

They changed how we could or could not breach the windows in different updates. So it's probably for balance.

Prolly because balance. If the plane's windows (I assume you're talking about the plane) could be breached by anyone, or the opposite breached by noone, Glaz would be near absolutely useless on it.

Higher caliber rounds(?)

[Nalverus]

we call it bullet proof glass. an glaz is using the big guns that pierce even that.

assuming the velocity of a regular round fired from a Deagle 44 hits at about 435 mph, and that its approximate mass is 300 grams or so, then the window (with a tensile strength of 2300 N) would block the bullet with some trouble (at 1500 N).

Glaz's bullet, however, would accelerate forward and hit the window with almost 5500 N, barely even deccelerating it. (This is also why Glaz's shots do more damage.)

So, unless you emptied an entire clip from a Deagle into that window, it's not budging.

Are you trying to explain bullet damage in this game with muzzle velocity? I didn't know a recent update replaced bullet hitscans with projectiles.

[Theta]

Well, no, I do understand that it is a game, but I think Ubisoft may have tried to use real physics to curve Glaz's rifle damage effectively, in a realistic manner.

[Nomad]

its game logic, its why only some walls can be breached and others cant. However, Glaz shooting through the plane windows has been in the game since release and everyone knows about it. Besides Glaz has poor hit reg anyway so stop complaining.

[Moogle]

The real question is. Why can Glaz shoot through the bulletproof glass that is Plane. However, he can't shoot through/see through Mira's glass.

Science time again! (No, I don't regret doing this).

There are two realistically possible reasons for that:
a) Mira's mirrors could use what's known as deimpactional structure, the same kind of stuff that bomb tehnicians use to guard cameras oversseing their blast. They have high breaking point for both powerful shocks (like an explosion) but are also good against sharp shocks (like bullets).

b) The glass itself is simply laminated several times over, and uses carbon fiber tubes laminated inbetween the layers of glass. The carbon fibers help spread out the shock, but this also could explain why the mirrors are tinted black in only one direction.

Or, of course, R6S is R6S and we should leave it be.
Nah, scratch the last option.

they should change it so that the windows are covered by something, it sucks so much to have the perfect upper hand on someone and then their friendly glaz gives you a haircut when you didnt even know he existed

On some areas on the map they should add the little cover over the windows like on the other side of the plane

[Do You Want A Banana?]

cuz 7.62x54mmR even though pretty sure any rifle caliber / most (if not all) pistol calibers could easily go completely through passenger windows, though it doesn't take much to alter a bullet's course and it doesn't take much to destroy a bullet so the chances of it going at what you were aiming at irl are unlikely once it hits the glass
