Specific game? I dunno. But I can think of features that I’d include. Like, in an FPS, I would incorporate things like drop, windage, the need to lead targets that are moving, bullet travel time over distance, actual bullet spread (e.g., you can still easily miss at 500y even if you have the drop, wind, etc. calculated perfectly because you’re using a firearm that’s only 5MOA) speed of sound for sound effects (e.g., observing something and hearing the sound from it dependent on how far away it is), realistic damage (getting shot is likely fatal, crippling if you aren’t armored, and healing takes weeks with good medical attention, enemies not necessarily realizing they’ve been shot until they pass out from blood loss, and/or are still capable of shooting you if they’ve been shot in the leg), practical movement speeds and scaling (e.g., walking across D.C. should take about 24 hours, not just an hour or two if you don’t run into super mutants), etc. In short, I’d make certain kinds of games much more realistic, and much, much harder.
As for the why, it’s hard enough to win a match against someone that’s a USPSA grand master; you either need to get the drop on them, or be really fast; you shouldn’t have to mag dump into them. Gun fights are really deadly, but they’re often treated like magic in games.
