ah well that is what I wanted to know, how I can spot them, as chthulu's says realism and IS, but another one says realism and they just mean FF!

But to answer the question as to what does it do, as near as I can tell, it limites the number of grenades to 3 (or is this up to the op?) which is much more realistic as GI was 2 frag grenades and one phosphorus or other special grendade.

But the main thing is that a shot to the torso will bring you down most of the time just like a head shot does in the regular mod.

So will shots to the legs and arms too at times. Which is very realistic. A .45 colt pistol was designed to stop a charging horse, for heaven's sake. A thompson, even if it hit you in the arm, would knock you down probably put you out of comission - which is what combat was all about really, not killing the enemy but making him unable to continue to make war.

Anyway, I find it much more rewarding playing the realism mod where you can bring someone down with one good shot from an M-1 from 300 yards away, and wear the MP-40 and the Thompson cut you to ribbons at close range.

I run it and it cuts down on Grenade Wars http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/wink.gif

Yes I love the realism mod. No more taking 3 rifle rounds in the chest and living!

Yup, we run it too

is chthulu's the only server that uses the realistic damage mod?

No one got back to me when I asked for other server names that use realistic. (other than a site that runs their own server via an ip address).

So I am hoping more people will use it. But guess everyone wants 100 grenades and automatic weapons that take 35 rounds to kill someone.

When you say realism, you mean you won't die from a scrap on the arm. I have heard this mentioned before, and I just dl'ed the patch. What exactly does it entail?

Haven't played for a couple of days, but I know that there's at least 3 servers with the realism mod. They're always full whenever I check them out.

The client (you) doesn't have to download anything. It's a ONLY a server side download.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the servers running the "realism" mod be labled as "CPR"? That's how I've been finding 'em.
