    No it won't.

This isn't a COD type of change, this is a realistic (imo needed) adaptation of the game because it is indeed a game. PLEASE.
    How is that realistic? If you are close enough to hear a round making contact with flesh you are close enough to know if it was your round that hit him. They do not need to shoehorn some exaggerated and over the top sound just to cater to COD players moonlighting in War of Rights. And you would hear the noise from your firearm over top the sound anyway so it just does not make any sense.

    I said realistic as in being reasonable for a simulation game. Not as realistic in real life. Sorry for the confusion.

    I don't get why people still push for a kill report and why this thread is now 11 pages in. The only time it is actually kind of hard to tell if you killed someone is when you are shooting volleys at a group far beyond normal combat distance. In standard combat distance It is rarely vague unless everyone happened to be firing on the same guy, which a disciplined unit would not do anyway. Aim at a guys upper body you pull the trigger and they drop is as good as a kill report as anything. Just count yourself if your that worried about a kill count.

    Either you have super human vision or you often Rambo. It's near impossible most of the game to see if you hit someone.

    As long as the kill report was personal and not publicized to the entire server. If all could view each other's KDR then we would have a problem. I wouldn't mind at all a personal report that only you can view.

    Not sure how you got that out of my statement but your wrong. I dont play the game outside of my unit's scheduled events in which I am a senior NCO who has some of the responsibility to keep order. So no I dont rambo. If you think it takes "super human vision" to tell if you killed someone at average combat distance then I dont't know what to tell you. Not trying to be rude but it really isnt that hard.

    So we can create, yet another, Useless Chest Thumping thread on these forums where we can whip it out with our measuring tapes ...
