You can't aim at any part of the body. Use a weapon that is going to give you a lot of hits over the course of a fight, i.e. high accuracy and low damage. A pillow is what most people would recommend. You don't have to win the fight for this mission, just get a hit on the specified body part, so hosping, mugging or leaving is completely irrelevant.

Bare Knuckle (Hard) ...mission failed · · 4 likes


The mission was: Defeat Skar with no weapons or armor equipped

You interpreted this as being a choice between:

1) using armor but no weapon
2) using a weapon but no armor

I sympathize. I can see how it might be understood this way by a non-English speaker, the "or" giving a suggestion of choice, in a programming language sense.

The mission summary might be better phrased as "Defeat Skar with neither weapons nor armor equipped", but then Duke is not exactly renowned as a model grammarian.

The achievement of first drug free player to level 100 is still up for grabs. There's probably only one other contender, though :)

It's impossible to lose an attack anonymously. If you're talking about the player named "someone", yes they can lose.

It's not true you receive ammo only for your equipped gun. I got a batch of 5.7mm PI and I don't use any guns of that calibre. I guess most payouts are 5.56 mm or 9mm because those are used in 90% of the guns in the game.

I've had 3 payouts this month, worth in the region of 2000 mission points. Still a long way to go to make up for all the years it paid no benefit at all.

Dual Primaries excluded from weapon upgrades · · 3 likes


Ched
I bought the last Dual Bushmasters to be sold at auction, for a price of $10b. The only reason I went for them instead of a gold-plated AK (my other preference at the time) was I saw that SMG mastery could apply to both the DBMs and a secondary BT MP9. Dual primaries have always been the only weapons in the game that can be mastery-matched with a secondary weapon. More than anything else, this was why I shelled out $10b in a bidding war for them. Buying them wasn't an accident, it was a plan.

Contrary to some others opinions about Duals, I really like them. They do more damage than any other weapon I've used. I can't complain about the accuracy either, as I hit with them more often than not, and the mag size of 60 is awesome in conjunction with the ammo management education course. Most fights are over before I need to reload.

My point is, apart from the $10b up front cost, I spent a lot of time training both SMGs to 100%, as well as 55 merits to get the SMG mastery to apply to both primary and secondary weapons. In view of that, if you're going to buy them back / scrap them from the game, I'd feel entitled to considerably more compensation than merely the price I paid for them.

I don't think I'd even be happy doing a straight swap for a gold AK. I'm with Cartman on preferring attachment buffs to selling. I have no suggestions as to what those might be, just so long as I can keep on using my all-time favourite weapon, and the said attachments are really shiny.

Anybody else got a special ammo payout yet? It's not tradeable of course as it goes straight into your ammo locker. I've no idea what the payout frequency will be, but no more spending mission points on special ammo for me :)

Effect of accuracy on hitting body parts · · 1 like


Critical hits are to the head, throat and heart. A higher percentage of crits must result in a lower percentage of non-critical hits.

On average, over 20 rounds, a default crit rate of 5% should result in 1 crit and 19 non-crits. A crit rate of 20% should result in 5 crits and 15 non-crits.

Your percentage chance of hitting a minor body part like hands or feet is therefore slightly greater if you have a low critical hit rate.

Effect of accuracy on hitting body parts · · 1 like


If you think about it, a high critical hit rate is a slight disadvantage because you're slightly less likely to score hits on minor body parts like hands and feet.
