So as we know the movies can make a noisy .45 quieter than a pellet gun when in reality they do not reduce the noise that much. We still encounter people who assume that the "silencer" works as the movies depict. Rather than explain how the movies are wrong we can just show them this video.
Most videos where a suppressor is used don't have a weapon without a suppressor to show how much noise is reduced. This video has two identical guns (minus the suppressor on one) and the same ammo.

Yeah it really isn't that big of a deal at best and this is just my opinion as I have never used a suppressor. At a distance it may make it harder to determine the location and distance of whoever is shooting at you. If I were sneaking around I would like one regardless of the fact it doesn't cover the noise as much as we would like. Most people don't care about truth they simply like to dictate how they feel things should be based off whatever media comes the easiest. People think it's so silent no one could possibly hear the shot in a crowd making it extremely deadly in the hands of the average citizen.

Desert Eagle silencer supersonic vs. subsonic ammo
Youtube code doesn't work in guilds. If I want a silent kill I'd probably use archery or more likely a knife.
Good find on the video though.

Thats stupid I was wondering why I had so much trouble..... Anyway is bothersome to carry a bow a gun and whatever else unless you have that AR crossbow attachment LOL.

Yeah gaia has done all sorts of s**t to the main forums but guilds remained unchanged for many years. Actually as far as I can recall the only change they've done to the guilds is letting guilds notify you when a thread has a new post or you get quoted.

Yeah I took a long break from Gaia due to boredom nothing has really changed most topics are the same crap everyday just repeated by different people. Only reason I got an account was because I went to tech school and had a few friends here so I got on to keep in touch. It was fun at the time but things just got boring thought the battle mode would be cool but it blows.

No, there was another change to Guild forums, but I can't recall what. At the very least, I remember that the smileys used to be on the left-hand side of the window, and now they're on top.

Some special forces units still do this.

Oh yeah now I remember that.
Still the point is that gaia barely touches the guilds when updating the forums.

I think there's a 1:3 ratio of updates between guilds and forums. TBH, I don't know why they don't update them both at the same time, but I expect we'll have working

It's a lot less than that.

This is quite possibly biased by the fact that my current forays into forums include Armas' "Sexiest Guns" thread, Shrantic's "Best Zombie Weapons" thread, and post-stalking friends, which 90% of the time is you. xd
