I am a novice player, I don't know whether the game has been affected by the trajectory when shooting at long distance, and the influence of wind speed, please consult you.

Yes, all projectiles are affected by gravity & wind. It's most noticeable with arrows, particularly when it's raining.
With most of the firearms, you won't notice because you're shooting animals < 220m. But if you go to the range you will see the drop.

It's "Tod", with one bloody 'd'!

bullets you dont notice too much of a drop unless at extreme range . arrows are the best to see bullet drop as tod says in practice.buy some tracer arrows and go up a mountain.wait for snow or rain then fire them and watch the results.i can still remember practicing perfecting long distance bow shots with tony aka xtimidator and on VDB we spent nearly a month every night for hrs getting the drop perfect.i have quite a few videos if you want to see long bow shots in action with tony.

You can notice the wind drift with the .22 long rifle especially at 200+ Meters.
We had a Event competition before of shooting Rabbits for the longest distance,.. and on BR it was quite obvious when the wind blew the bullet would go to the right
of the Euro rabbit a few feet as you could see the puff of sand with the bullet hit,.. so when the wind would slow down I could hit the rabbits, as it shot a lot straighter.
It's actually quite fun at those distances.............
