m107 recoil crazy unrealistic in game

[Second]

...Now, if someone who has fired the weapon (AK74, M4, M107) hundreds of times would say that recoil is too low in ArmA i would believe him ...

I fired my AK74 hundert times and the recoil is to high, the accuracy is to low.
And youtube is the only way to show that ...

Okay i believe your part about AK74 (which many more are stating too)... But generally yuuupoetoube isn't best way. i atleast believe more about things that have been written with expertiece, not small videoscreen with bad picturequality.

Example: Videos in youupetoube representing RK62 usually doesn't show right amount of recoil: it seems in videos that there's no recoil atall. While recoil infact is big.

Make the game realistic.
Simulate what you can, so realistic as possible.
And that means also, reduse the recoil.

Nobody carres about the balance,life is not balanced.

I totally AGREE!

Bah, some dude fired two rounds from a barret rifle to show off on YT and now everyone thinks he would even consider doing it if he wanted to score a hit in a combat situation.

Search for more barret/50. cal shooting movies on YT and you might find the rifle being fired from prone all the time, maybe there is a reason? The M107 is fine the way it is, really.

The AK74 does have too much recoil but a dev already aknowledged it as a bug to be fixed soon...

I have seen an vid on youtube where a .50 is fired several times from a very tiny garden table from inside a room. It was in Iraq in battle (or at least they made a show like that) but the .50 was really stable. After each shot gravel fall from the sealing and in the hole room the dust jumped in the air, the table almost collapsed - but almost no jumping up in the air, it just pushed into the shoulders of the gunner.

The M4 video that Marus provided shows a weapon with a foregrip, which greatly reduces the effect of recoil. ArmA does not represent this, so obviously that video is meaningless.

Before Marus wants to throw something stupid at me, shooting M4s at people is my profession.

lol...

ok try this movie, mr. killer ... no foregrip on this M4.

Well i am about 1.85m and i weigh about 95 kg, might be the reason why i don't feel any recoil by shooting sweet tiny 5.45x39mm bullets.

Imagine how those "no recoil omfg" videos would look like if the guns had behaved like in ArmA.


Yes, it's a funny mental picture.

I happen to think the M4 recoil is fine, and no Youtube video is going to change my mind.
