can we convert all weapon/vehicle stats as factual numbers?

[illgot 379]

The "stats" listed as bars are a horrible.  I can't really tell anything by the bars because the bars seem to mean different things depending on the weapon and vehicle type.

Can we please just convert all these stat bars to factual numbers?

we shouldn't have to rely on an outside database (which maybe out of date and doesn't list all weapons) to see what the range is on the weapon I am currently using in game.

It also doesn't help new players who have no idea what they are doing when the weapon shows 50% full bar for range and 30-40% full bar for TTK Edited July 12, 2018 by illgot

Its not, and it does.
Info is from files supplied by G1.

as nice as apbdb (both versions) are and as grateful as i am to the creators (both of them), all of that information needs to be ingame imo - and not just tucked away in the somehow-still-lackluster tutorial, stats should be easily displayed when guns are in your locker as well as on their respective armas page as well

unfortunately im pretty sure anything like that would have to wait until we get a unified UI, which means probably not until after the engine upgrade

also there needs to be a solid indicator of dropoff ranges, as well as a solid explanation of what they even are - too many new players shooting stars at 80m targets

what's the current ui interface thingy called?

scaleform?

man, they said they were going to add so many new things.

i think the only thing that's scale form is the main menu and the /fps command.

why do i type like this

Minor note: Kismet is more than just a UI solution, its a complete visual scripting system akin to (was actually replaced by) Blueprint Script in Unreal 4. You can build anything with it.

it actually irritated me when I was trying to look at my vehicles carrying capacity to fit a large item for a mission and just saw a bar.  WTF is this bar, is it 5 items, 6 items?
