I'm I the only one who's noticed the horrific bullet drop when sniping? After the bullet hits about 150 yards, it drops to the ground at FTL speed, it's insane lol let's get that trajectory on point so we can get some 300 yard sniping shot videos. Please and thank you. Also, please add Moby D**k
Bullet drop needs to be fixed ASAP
@tjmacs I'd rather not TBH, in games where sniper rifles are powerful everyone just goes camping and it makes combat kinda braindead.
@ersatz-nihilist back then? It has warp speed when it erratically drops at 90 degrees lol so unrealistic and it absolutely ruins sniping. The guy that said he wants it to stay the way it is, is just a terrible shot, that's why he like the glitch bullet drop bahahahaha
@dansking it makes the sniper rifle do its job actually. Without accurate bullet drop it's useless. If you like it the way it is, you are clearly a terrible shot and don't know how first person shooter adventures work, buck o
@tjmacs If you result to name calling and smart aleck remarks, you should not be forums. You clearly don't know the Pirate's Code for this place.
@desolate-hollow so they can harass me but I can't say anything? You can't take my freedom [Mod Edited]😂 I've been here along time, I'm not going anywhere, deal with it. If you don't have constructive advice, keep your pennies for your thoughts, cuz I don't need them✌
@tjmacs No one in this thread is really harassing you. There is 0 constructive criticism to be made. You are literally the first person I came across who truly complains about the bullet drop. Even still, if you want to argue about it, provide actual criticism yourself. Not more dumb remarks. Honestly, if you can't even use a forum appropriately, regardless of how long you've been here, you should leave. Plus, name calling seems to be a habit of yours. So I no longer need to concern myself with a trivial case like yours. Please, next time refer to the Pirate's Code, and maybe you can get actual responses.

i am sorry but why exactly should your opinion be taken serious? it encourages several things in many situations that you can not snipe the fun out of this game, so lets keep it this way. the eye of reach has a very particular set of applications. if you want to snipe through a game maybe consider playing cs or sniper: ghostwarrior. sea of thieves is not a sniping ego shooter kind of a game.
Bullets were not molded back then to an optimal shape, but were rather balls of metal. After the initial impetus from the gunpowder, the bullet would just drop insanely fast due to its weight and no longer being supported by its initial momentum after a certain distance. It's accurate, Rare has done their research.
@desolate-hollow how about you refer to giving positive input and not just being a troll on here, thanks 😂
@eljammos it's an easy fix, stop riding the devs masts😂that's not the whole game, only an 8th of it it😂 Bullets didn't drop at FTL speed 😑
The ballistics of this game are really awful... And the comments saying "go play a shooter" are stupid in my opinion. How is this game not being a shooter an argument for having bad ballistics on purpose? I am sure, that normal ballistics are even easier to do than the one currently in the game. You can easily calculate the trajectory of the bullet with 8th grade physics knowledge, while the ballistic in the game just somehow changes rapidly at a certain point.
@tjmacs back then in the pirate periods, bullets were mostly formed by melting certain metals until they were made in spheres. Therefore, the bullets would've been super aids when it came to distance and accuracy
@b3dr0ck1999 finally an intelligent person comments 👏 everyone else just crys and says go play another game when I'm just trying to get some realistic bullet drop. The trolls on here think they are president Trump and they can just talk down to people like they run shiz, but in reality they live in their parents basement and have never been in the presence of a women haha so funny!! Hopefully they will fix this FTL bullet drop bs
@im-elysian But we are totally not talking about bad distance or accuracy, we are talking about a bad ballistic. Huge difference.
I’m a little confused as to what your asking. are you wanting a camp fest where everyone just camps an outpost or are you trying to play call of duty on ships. You do realize your shooting a round solid piece of lead out of a pipe powered by black power right typically maxes out at around 150-175 yards just to injure.
