M16A4 ACOG works just fine with SD ammo

20 words or less: Very Low Humanity = Flies/Crows
Hawk24 replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
NO You removed automatic bandit skins for the sake of realism, now you want AI animals/insects to follow us around once our humanity hits below zero? Thanks, but no thanks, give me my badass looking bandit skin back please -
Killed 3 bandits in the 30 minutes after my respawn.

Elektro Makarov Pretty glorious if you ask me..... -
Would it be possible to have a Skyrim-like arrow system? As in: every arrow that hits your opponent will end up lootable in his inventory It would reduce the frustration of having arrows clipping through the ground Oh and put some sights on that rail, will ya?

20 words or less: Spawning without a weapon
Hawk24 replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
YES, but: -Slightly increase the amount of medical items in your start inventory -Map and Compass should be avaible right off the bat -

Gee, thanks for clearing that up I never thought 7.62 Soviet would not be the same cartridge as 7.62 NATO.........>_> AKM deals more damage than the AK74, because the ArmA engine has pretty low damage values for 5.56/5.54 If you want to do PvP, the AKM is the better choice

Dynamic lighting has gone screwy
Hawk24 replied to witherfield's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I had to set my brightness to 1.5 just to see in a forest in broad daylight The "light adaptation" has gone haywire -
Low population servers are actually more dangerous than high population servers Simply because everyone is thinking "oh a low pop server, might take a trip to NWAF" In a 50 player server you might encounter 1 or 2 of them going to the NWAF In a 8 player server you can be sure that atleast 5 of them are traveling to the NWAF The only exception is a low pop server with night time If you are good at navigating through silhouttes, that's your best chance

Whenever I go to NWAF I completely ignore the hangars It can only spawn basic AR15/AK variants, nothing fancy compared to my M16A4 ACOG with 10 STANAG mags The only building I loot is the northern barrack Scout for 5 minutes Get in with the PDW on full auto Loot equipment that's worth it(things like GPS, NVGs and high tier AR15s) Get out After every loot pile you should scan your surroundings and watch the door for a few seconds Don't waste time by staring at the equipment screen for too long Look at the loot pile, analyze the items that you can loot If you need something grab it quickly and get back to a ready position Southern barracks is a killzone, with corners and bushes everywhere The 6 hangars can be shut down completely with one marksman on top of the firehouse They are just not worth it unless when going in solo

"How long it takes to run from A to B"
Hawk24 replied to gusmanak's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Every 2-digit grid is 1x1km Every 3-digit grid is 100x100m The default soldier walking gives you a speed of about 1km/3minutes Take your position Take your desired destination Take the approximate distance by adding the grids Multiply the distance with your default walking speed ???? PROFIT! -
should there be regular resets on characters
Hawk24 replied to vanilladragon's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You know what's funny? This..."idea"...of yours is supposed to defeat the incentive to dupe and farm items Yet by wiping every character, tent and vehicle each month you're ENCOURAGING people to farm and exploit even more Once the big server wipe is out everyone will rush to the NW Airfield and start exploiting the game mechanics to get the best gear as fast as possible In the end you punish everyone but those that you want to punish Glitchers will always find a way to get the rarest items possible with the least amount of time and effort invested A monthly wipe won't stop them, it will only encourage them to become faster and more efficient at farming rare items You don't CURE a disease by suppressing the SYMPTOMS You don't FIX a glitch by WIPING the resulting items(+everything achieved in a legit way) every month And again, DayZ Staff already disapproved of your "idea", so please let this thread die -
PDW -Constant supply of ammo, as it eats basically every magazine holding 9mm rounds -Full auto lead dispenser for corridor fighting -Quiet enough for zeds(completely silent with SD mags) -Perfect addition to a long range rifle like a CZ/M24/DMR/M16A4 ACOG -You can carry large quantities of ammo because of the 30rnd magazines

Simple solution to disconnect exploit

Considering the fact that one can change his name as many times as one pleases....good luck with that -

DayZ Staff told you that your idea is terrible "Argue" all you want, it won't be put in the game Can someone please have mercy to lock and bury this thread? -
You must be a pretty terrible sniper if your position is compromised after a single kill

I found this on a dead player help if I need to drop
Hawk24 replied to ghostshell's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Damn, it's so difficult typing the name of a weapon into DayZ wiki and looking it up on the loot table! Better start a new thread asking for help!!
