Bullet Ballistics? edit

"Ballistics are adjusted to reflect those of real weapons"

That is not totally correct. Only shots beyond 600 m are affected. So within 600m, you just aim centerally and hit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wlijiu (talkcontribs) 12:08, 6 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Engine edit

Would it be more accurate to state this as using the Battlefield 2 engine, or the Refractor engine? I know refractor is underlying, but this is specifically a BF2 mod (and won't work with any other Refractor game). 121.98.178.172 (talk) 21:03, 3 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Features section edit

I rewrote the entire thing, since it sounded more like a brochure than an encyclopedic article. Hopefully, I didn't miss anything important, but if I did, feel free to edit it in. --daranzt 15:22, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

It seems quite good. There's a few lists which seem a bit extraneous, and I'm not sure whether the system requirements are different enough to warrant a section on those (I've not seen much of a hit when I play, anyway). But it's very good! Have a biscuit. --Wunderbear 11:58, 22 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Wikiproject video game assessment edit

I've left the rating as is, it's certainly headed in the right direction but the massed subheadings and lists are scaffolding rather than flowing paragraphs. It needs breaking down into the typical video game article paragraphs (gameplay, plot (if necessary), development, reception) and if subheadings are needed at all they should be used sparingly to prevent stop-start-stop-start when reading. There shouldn't be external links in the article body - if they're cited as sources then they don't need repeating anyway. The hardware requirements can be moved to the infobox which has a section for them. It would be very helpful if the {{cite web}} template was used to cite the online sources. Take a look around the video game projects Good Articles for some ideas, there should be a complete cite web template to pinch from one of them. Someoneanother 05:23, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Neutrality edit

"Editors are currently in dispute concerning points of view expressed in this article. Please help to discuss and resolve the dispute before removing this message."

This is a reference to the reception section. Unless someone can find negative reception published about Project Reality by a reputable source that is not in the article, I will remove the notice in 5 days. If you do find some negative reception from a reputable, major source, great! Just add it in and then remove the notice.~ GeZe (talk) 23:24, 3 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

New Criticism section edit

I've added a new section under reception. The information is verifiable but unsourced as I doubt it is likely to be disputed. If it is disputed, I can dig through the Project Reality forums to find countless instances of the described responses, but would prefer not to have to spend time doing this.

I read the portion you wrote and immediately was surprised that citation needed tags weren't applied. All the information you put there is factual, and citing individual forum posts seems a bit harsh. I hope no sticklers for sourced info come along... but, honestly, you should be able to source the whole section with a blanket link to the forum, and let doubters dig for it... though i doubt that's up to wiki standards (it should be in cases like this, though, where abstract knowledge from hundreds of small posts is boiled down).

PR:Arma 2 (PR:A2) section edit

It's WAY too biased. Don't know who wrote it but it needs to be edited asap. BobVickers (talk) 20:57, 9 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
