Re: Why are spears and javelins with lover damage than arrows yet are much bigger?
Quote Your logic is flawed - everything has realistic range except throwign weponz - spears and stones! Even I CAN aim on 30 m with stone to hit head sized target! I agree - my logic is flawed, and arm-chair philosophy is always unrealiable. So I decided to turn to empirical evidence. I gathered some items with corresponding weights as their equivalents in UnReal World. I shot a video of tossing items (both in UnReal World and in the real life). And I must admit that Aramis seems to be partially right - item throwing distances might use some adjusting. Crude javelins in UnReal World fly too far. Or then it is that UnReal World characters are better at throwing items, having a better technique and giving projectiles greater velocity than I could do. Here are the results for me and my UnReal World character Pekka; Crude javelins (3 lbs) : Pekka 26 - 30 metres, Erkka 12 - 15 metres A rock (1 lbs) : Pekka 17 - 20 metres, Erkka 17 - 20 metres A stone (14 lbs) : Pekka 12 metres, Erkka 7 metres (I repeated the real life test three times. For the first two runs I had my stone weight messed up, I was using a 14 kg stone instead of 14 lbs one. On the second test I got javelins to 15 metres. But instead of using that clip in the video I wanted to be precise with my stone weight, so I did a third test.) November 25, 2018, 05:56:37 PM |
