to me it seemed that shooting through walls had all but disappeared in 2.8x, but other people and the team members all said it was still there. so i went upon a little experiment. i downloaded the ballistics test map and did some testing. just thought others might like to see my results:
weapon - - - # walls penetrated*
M92F - - - - - - - - - -3
DE - - - - - - - - - - -7
M3 - - - - - - - - - - -3
AKSMU - - - - - - - - - 6
MP5 - - - - - - - - - - 3
M16 - - - - - - - - - - 4(i would have thought more, but what do i know...)
PSG - - - - - - - - - - 6
Robar - - - - - - - - - 8
* the map has eight different sections of wall, starting at one end with the thinnest all the way up to the other end being the thickest. i'm numbering them with 1 the thinnest, 8 thickest, the number represents the last piece of wall the weapon was able to penetrate. the wall sections were not aligned in a row for consecutive penetration, i.e a 3 does not mean it shot through 3 sections of wall before the bullet stopped but that i tried the thinnest section, it penetrated, i moved on to #2, it penetrated, #3, it penetrated, #4, no penetration, so 3 is the last wall full penetrated. hope i make sense. if you download the map it'll be clear
i guess the walls in the 2.8 map pack are just thicker than they used to be...
