9x39 Armour Piercing Rounds are useless (DayZ 1.28 Experimental)
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

The AP rounds in this game are useless.

Today I was running around the coast wearing a pristine plate carrier w/ a VSS loaded with 9x39 Armour Piercing Rounds. I had spotted two random guys chopping some trees down next to a road and both of them had plate carriers. I decided to take my chance and snipe one of them and I hit his friend 6 times (!!!) and he STILL SURVIVED, like WTF?

He went unconscious after the 5th round hit him, and just to make sure, I hit him with 1 more round (which you can clearly see in the video) to put him down. His friend comes up to me and mows me down with a RAK from a distance and I go unconscious. Somehow not a single bullet hit him. What the hell is up with the bullet damage values in DayZ (???) and will this terrible hit registration ever be addressed?

I immediately respawned near by and I witnessed them looting my body. Somehow they both survived unscathed and were sprinting around as if nothing hit them.

yeah they need to make the ap rounds do more damage or something. also please remove the aur ax iron sight from the sval or at least make it removable and let it take the pso 1-1 scope like the vss just make it have less range or something.
