Bullet drop

[IonBeastPT]

Anybody knows if there is actually any bullet drop or if the wind affects the trajectory of the bullet ?

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Yes there is bullet drop for sure and not just a little on some weapons. I am not sure how much wind takes effect though.

[Curupira]

bullet drop? yes!
the wind only afect the arrows, not the bullets.

[Livlander]

yes there is .. gote one kill at 400+ meters... when u shoot some times can see trou optiks on some guns where the bullet drops :)

[Lightshifty]

Bullet drop is real for sure, and there is supposed to be wind affecting the trajectory of the bullets. Take a look at the rifle perks/skills, there is one where you can measure the wind so you can take more accurate shots. I don't know how much the wind affects the shots though, or if the perk actually works.

Both bullets and arrows have drop but I haven't noticed much wind effect on either. Another oddity is that branches do not deflect either bullets or arrows. I have shot deer through brush with the bow that in real life would be impossible.

There is drop yes but its very broken. To work it out you have to take lots of shots/misses at animals since the devs didnt bother to add a basic target to a hunting game.

Shot a whitetail at 420m with the 338. Aimed about a foot over its back

As of 1.4 many of the guns are performing oddly. I would wait and see if the 1.6 patch alters performance before making any final determination about how much drop/wind deviation there is.

[dgeesio & ronMctube]

yes there is bullet drop on a 478m shot i killed i aimed for the head area it hit the backend of the deer .so there is a small amount on some rifles it depends on the distance you shooting at.

Well ... I had shots with a .243 at 300m where my shot hit dead centre (Vital hit, down on spot) where I was aiming .... no bullet drop or wind affecting it.

Yes there is a perk to measure wind speed, but it is usless as your shots will always hit where you aim from 0-300m+ (I had the Windage perk, was of no use)

Not sure how it affects arrows as I never shoot a arrow from more than 30m from my target, and even still my arrow always hit where I point .... given the fact that the arrow is not a bug arrow that completely hits left or right from my target hitting a tree in the background (Known bow bug)

Also the perk zeroing does not work in the game as the game mechanics for it is broken. There is a long thread about it to proove it

I have experienced bullet drop, but that was on 300m+ shots with the 30-30 which is a close range weapon. I tried it with iron sights. I was bored lmao.
