What is your longest range shot? | Forums

[Konduur666]

Hey all!

I know all the attention is turned on the DLC right now but I haven't bought the SP yet considering the feedback so far :S

On the other hand, I've been having a lot of fun since the start of the game playing with long range shooting. My longest shot so far is 646m which doesn't feel like a lot so I want to keep pushing the boundary a little.

What are your longest range shots?
Is there any graphical option I need to enable to be able to shot from further away on PC?
What are your tips to tag and shoot people from far away?

If a dev reads this: What is the max range computed by the game or allowed in any of the guns? Is there a plan to increase that to allow even longer range shooting?

Thanks for reading!

Have fun!

My longest shot is according to the stats: 590m

I don't tag (got the hud turned off), cause i think it's too easy. Using the digital scope on the MSR or H1.
It appeared to me you can't hit npc's beyond a certain threshold, seems like the bullet just vanishes, or it's not calculated. No idea if they use real physics or it's a calculation.
Also, I could not see NPC's further away than 700m or so, but perhaps that's a graphics setting indeed.

Perhaps someone out there has done some investigating...

I managed a 812m kill using the SR-1 and a POSP scope.

649.
Basicly any shot over 600 meters is such a guessing game I dont even bother. Effectively I can engage up to about 500 meters. After that the risk of missing and ruining the whole mission is to great so I rather go in sneaking and take out dudes with my pistol

My longest in solo mode is 1026m... But if you know how, you can go up tp 1500m in coop probably even more).

The trick is to have a mate grab a sicario, then you can get to the distance you want and shoot him. it works best with another guy usignthe drone to give hints to the shooter as to where the bullet hit.
We had a 1357m shot in copp like that, but after all, it's just stats :/

If you know how to use the TARS, you can effectively engage up to 800m with a relaibale accuracy; Over that range the bullet drops seem to be erratical, yeah... Plus, I see no need to snipe them from that far away, it's not like even the snipers are blind over 200m, right? xD

My longest is 761m so far.

Has the draw distance changed? This week I noticed some cartel reinforcements that were still spotted at over 900m as they drove away. I was solo. They were not tagged.

[Flanker1Six]

473 or something like that. The thing I really wish they'd included is some sort of scope zeroing for range; ala the old Delta Force/Black Hawk Down games from NovaLogic.

[DarkLordDashie]

Mine is anything but impressive to be honest with you. 402m.

[PsnGrimm]

1524 legit. solo play

[Varakharne]

401m, literally enemies dont spawn iinto view beyond that. This is on a pathetic inferior XBOX ONE !
