Dumb Video Game Logic

Unrealistic games are for faggots.

Maybe gravity is different there???

why

Everything.

1. main char doesn't sleep, eat or drink
2. inventory
3. healing
4. melee or ranged or magic consists of more than 1 or 2 hits
5. magic

I'll expand for anyone who wants to read more of my autism.

1. except for the witcher, this shit makes NO SENSE.
It's fucking dumb, OF FUCKING COURSE you become a legendary hero who saves the world since you're basically a god.
For most people, the day consists of 14 hours of activites - 10 of them (in RPGs at least) consist of labour to sustain themselves and to survive.
Obviously you become a swordmaster in 2 months since you have 24 hours a day to practice swordfighting since you don't need to eat or buy food or sleep or get a shelter or get a cold or diseased.2

2. Seriously, except for 1 or 2 weapons, a quiver maybe, your own clothes and maybe a small pouch for gold - why the fuck carry more than that, and HOW?
==Who the fuck walks for miles with an invisible backpack containing swords, armours, food, plants, 300 arrows and also fights like a ballerina strongman reeeeeee==.

3. Yeah, I'm sure drinking blood (a "health potion") is going to instantly cure your open chest wound that nearly killed you.

4. After playing chivalry medieval warfare for about 2 hours about 3 years ago, that's how combat should be.
What the fuck is this shit where you strike some guy or wolf with a sharp sword for 10 minutes?

5. suspension of disbelief

...

...

...

Gameplay trumps realism, get over it nerds.

...

...

Seriously this is only an issue if the dev is too lazy to actually balance the game by design. If you want shotguns but don't want then to be OP you have areas with over 100m engagement ranges.

Why don't they just add a simple inventory system (just a list of everything you have), give a weight to weapons and ammo, and make you move slower when more burdened? It would be much less annoying.

Fuck you
Realism = Fun

...

...

DUDE WEED LMAO

...

...

...

...

Turn in your illegal high capacity clip to the authorities, baby killer.

...

...

Kill everyone.

...

Out of all the flaws this game has, this is the most retarded thing in the game.

...

Fuck you, Skyrin.

I don't see any particular reason why that wouldn't work. Sure it's not going to work WELL, but it should still be doable.

the think is that the crossbow does fuckall damage in land, but once you are knees deep in water it becomes a weapon to surpass metal gear

I think that one is partially your fault.

It would work. It would do literally fuck all, though. At absolute best you'll send the bolt like five feet ahead of you.

...

...

...

Yeah thats retarded

What geam

...

...

To be fair, a longer barrel will result in higher muzzle velocity, or "more bullet damage", and a thicker barrel will prevent it from warping with sustained fire, preventing loss of accuracy. But still, increasing the speed of a projectile provides diminishing returns. Too fast, and it cuts right through the body. Slow enough, and it will knock a man down and chew his guts up.

It's to simulate you filtering out everything not right at the center of your field of view. Alas, you cannot represent how your visual cortex handles information on a 2D display.

Any game with stats and skill you can select and improve during combat.

That's because developers are alternately too lazy, too stupid, or not allowed to make logical money systems in fantasy games, like magical bank markers or something.

Enjoy never hitting anything.

i've done it before

Aren't you supposed to have your arm fully extended when firing one-handed? And have your elbows relaxed when firing two-handed?

...

...

I long for a game with good, detailed in-game economy

I miss daggerfall

Did I get Garrett's eye or some shit?

i made that picture, lol

...

Enjoy never smelling anything

...

...

...

...

There was a door like this in New Vegas, how come it never gets posted?

You can make a picture like that with ten seconds in the creation engine, doesn't stop people from posting it and similar absurdisms.

...

Because that one door REPCONN museum is easily bypassed by just walking around for a bit.

In runescape you drink piss "Saradomin Potions" to restore health, but it also fucks up your stats because holy shit you just drank piss

...

I fucking hate video games.

...

...

Not in ADoM. You can even flick coins at enemies there to slightly damage them.

Depends on the crossbow string material.

Didn't DMC1 have this? I think it was a speargun or something but close enough.

...

I thought you had to mince it and apply it on the wound.

The problem comes when the "realistic" aspect is used as a selling point.

Well, it's out of the question to find anymore ammunition off of him than what he has because it's unethical and an offense to the dead to take anything from a body except, unless a particular culture forbids it, for weapons.

Continue it faggot.

...

...

...

...

only if there was a way to remove bullets from human bodies.

God I hate modern RPGs.

Fuck modern shooters.

The only "good reason" a game needs for doing any arbitrarily stupid shit is "because gameplay".
Best if they all just have half a mag or less.

Next you'll complain when characters run unrealistically fast, or that enemies can take a bullet to their heart without instantly dying.

lol'd

Condemned

...

pretend you're aiming at your monitor and look at how your hand overlaps it.
doom is clearly the most realistic.

your 90° FOV is ZOOMED OUT you boner. a real FOV, as if your monitor was a window, would be something 25-35°.
your character isn't gaining eye telescopes, he's flipping up his fish-eye glasses.

you got normal vision. Ever notice how you can see further in real life than in a video game? its because there's limited pixels to show information and far enough out people look like 2 pixels, but in real life your eyes can see far. Zoom represents that.

...

...

...

There is no excuse for FPS games not have barrier penetration.This is worse than games without mirrors.

...

...

It was an actual harpoon gun, granted firing it while underwater is fucking retarded as far as I'm aware, since the models that CAN do that are nothing like the one you got in the game (though I could be wrong)

why do flamethrowers in games always suck?
they either have piss poor range or run out of fuel in seconds
or both

Because kiddies bitch about it

Look at Planetside 2 and a grenade having an effective blast radius of 5 meters, kiddies bitch and moan

tough to balance them i guess. realistically a flamethrower is a garden hose full of "fuck you nigger" and not a cloud of DPS

that stream even touches your big toe your day is pretty much done but you can't make a weapon like that work well in a game so they opt for the cloud of damage per second, which is kinda fun against AI because they'll get a burning animation but you can't really swing that in multiplayer scenarios because then if the red fart cloud touched anyone and put them into a dying animation it would become OP

Fucking hell, the Pistol in Halo vs every game afterwards

Halo it was a skill vs reward weapon, but kiddies who were not good with the pistol bitched and moaned like little shit stains so after that they nerfed the shit out of it

That's why Titanfall I don't play PVP and only play against AI because that smartpistol is dog shit bullshit

ha that's good mixing, i didn't realize that that commentary wasn't from the game at first

wolfenstein did the flamethrower just fine and it was balanced

But that was like 10+ years ago when gamers still had some skill left and they could fight back

Again I bring up planetside 2, the absolute utter fucking bitching about shotguns being "Op" cause "I died to them instantly"

If somebody gets the drop on you with a weapon that has an effective range of only 10 meters, you better fucking believe that weapon better be effective at that range

Its like people bitching about Reaper in Overwatch when all my own testing shows McCree is the one you should fucking watch out for

Double-nought buckshot pellets can't penetrate human skin at 100 yards distance. Birdshot doesn't do shit past 40 yards. It stings like a motherfucker but otherwise harmless. That's because they lose velocity mid-air extremely fast and being spherical shape they have penetration as shit as it gets for a gun projectile.

Full-choke barrel shotgun spread is about an inch per yard. Cylinder barrel shotgun (no choke) is twice as much.

So if you account for the fact that video game battlegrounds are usually within 30 yards distance, they scale everything down.

I refuse to believe people this stupid exist.

It broke a piece of plastic. A material that is extremely fragile to shock and will break easily. How does it proves that it will penetrate human skin? I remember some doctor that deals with firearm wounds said in a video that skin provides as much protection as 4 inches of meat.

Wait scratch that, go find me a hunter that killed a deer at 100 feet with a buckshot. 50 yards is already pushing the limit of shot's ability to kill things.

Yards. In case that dipshit wants to exploit this error.

fam plastic might be extremely fragile but your skin is even more

Give me a few minutes I'll find you the video.

There. Educate yourself.

...

but physics engines haven't been updated since 2008, and all the smart coders go straight to finance or vr tech

not all plastic is very elastic
educate yoself fool

what about a game where old people take more damage because their skin is thinner and less stretchy?

...

...

Because Holla Forums is the star citizen forums of new vegas.

...

...

For that caliber, rolling the drum using pump action kinda makes sense, and having it eject spent casing immediately also helps. What doesn't makes sense is that there are two barrels but only one drum, which isn't even aligned with either of them.

Imperial is better.

check em you plebbit faggot

if you ever go to a festival in eastern europe find someone who sells old soviet combat drugs. you could loose both your feet and continue running on the stumps when youre on that shit. if a grenade exploded right into your face you would be mildly surprised that your hearing has gone and your left arm is missing and then you would charge the fucker who threw it with your bayonette.
you would still bleed to death though.

I remember that door being pointless to lockpick other than to gain exp.

...

The pump causes an empty shell to fly out of the top chamber which never moves. Then it shoots three rockets.

both can be fun

depends on the game

Fallout 4 Survival mode is actually pretty cool with this. Stimpaks work over a period of several minutes and you'll have to down a bottle of water afterwards if you don't want to get fucked by dehydration.

i dont know about the others, but the arma 3 campaign was pretty fucking cool once you figured out how to use your AIs.

or Doom is just shot from a right eye perspective with his head cocked to the side.
Think outside the box you fucking mongoloid.

Strictly speaking the ability is called 'Buckshot', and did more damage for each 'pellet' that hit the target. Combine that with typically fantasy bs exaggerations…

Doomguy is just sticking his arm out to the right and running sideways like a crab, this image is silly

...

what game?

I know for sure it's happened to me in Fallout 3 but I wouldn't doubt if this happens in a lot of games.

Shitout 4
Because everything in that piece of shit game takes 3 magazines worth of ammo to kill.

Lol also sounds like "The Division"(aka dump entire magazines into people without them flinching)

...

I thought the enemies in MGS5 PP were bullet sponges…..Then I played the division.

I dont understand why its so hard for game devs to understand that 2 to the chest or 1 to the head will kill.

Oh fuck, I'm out of inventory space.

Yeah, I got room for a few more things.

Imagine how shit that game would be if everything died in two or three hits, though.

...

If the player could die just as easily, I think it would be fun.

I can't help but imagine perpetual duck and cover gameplay, popping out to fire a shot or two hoping for a kill, where every death feels completely random and uncontrollable.

That's usually how death is.
Also checked.

...

The point of video games is to get away from how things usually are.
What good is a game if it just feels random and unpredictable? You'd feel less like you're playing a game and more like you're pressing buttons waiting for things to happen.

...

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Personally I prefer games with realistic damage models.

Bonus points if you can guess the games.

Is this the metro series?

kek

A couple are.

Aids Moby is such a faggot.

Okay.

...

in one of the few games where they dont suck, they are absolutely traumatizing

nigga you dumb.

...

Actually, user, it might not be healthier in the long term to drink coffee creamer constantly for your calories rather than having a mix of veg/fruit, protein, fats and carbs, but your immune system will up your caloric needs by a margin for the healing process. Healing requires more calories than being in a state of good health… this is why swole dudes will bulk then cut, where 'bulk' is just a nice term for bodily calorie stores. It's also why you may eat almost normally, within reason, when you're sick over a long time but still shed weight. Or, you don't eat much at all, but you shed weight faster than a standard calories-in, calories-out calculation would permit (taking in TDEE and body fat % and all that). Your immune system kicking it to overdrive, if not taken into consideration in the calculation, will make the calculation seem corrupted.

Anyway, coffee creamer has more calories than vegetables per gram, so drinking coffee creamer would help your immune system out far better in the short-term than veg will. This may also be why even doctors recommend crackers in the west for sick days, because they're pretty high in calories (42 calories in one saltine cracker), but also bland enough to settle in the stomach without causing a fuss. Also, the vitamins in veg won't be too helpful in short-term healing compared to taking in calories.

Now, if the devs actually thought it out that way or not, well, we'll probably never know. But it's not entirely wrong in the situation you're bringing up.

You need to look at the actual distribution of buckshot at range, and look up how chokes work, and how flight control wads work, and how slugs work.

my nigga

...

lolis can hold weapons however the fuck they want

Third sounds like final fantasy

At the end he shot 3 projectiles but he's only got 2 barrels.

you subhuman. naturally ambidextrous is the way to go

guess which game hint: it's every single fucking AAAshit release in recent history

Escort yourself to the nearest gas chamber

Shit the goyim know, my plot for implementing reasonable measuring units was uncovered!

only most realistic at shooting boobers to suicide

...

Yeah now fuck of back to japan you nigger

good thing they havent discovered our

No, you just drank fucking flax and crushed birds nests.

Nigga you know full fucking well he's asking for a game where you perform brain surgery on yourself

Guess the game.

...

Mario can travel between universes by rubbing his ass against a wall for a few seconds while on an elevator going up.

Is true.
He can also literally reach the speed of infinity while doing that, and make the entire universe(s) freeze.

...

...

Is this about modern Deus Ex?

battlefield?

The Jews did this.

...

...

What sort of half arsed burger-tactical smooth bore gun you need to make that happend?

thats because in every game a suppressor comes in a value pack along with subsonic rounds smh fam

by azura by azura by azuuura~~~

...

I'm not going to post the "fun unrealistic chart games" again because you should already know them if you play video games. You fags are cancer.

All of the replies to this post didn't get the fucking joke.
fucking newfags, I swear

Everything wrong with slippery slope presumptions: the comic.

E.Y.E. ?

That's why it's better to have a sci-fi or fantasy game where you can get something like a cybernetic eye or goggles that let you zoom in rather than having that silly looking zoom in something that claims to be "realistic"

The nazis were on meth which sort of explains how they rekt everybody…….until they ran out of ice

Nigger go back to /r/fallout plz
