    Replace M1911 with TT33

    Why bump? Pretty much everyone agreed they'd like to see a Tokarev in-game. :thumbsup:
  2. If you've seen the movie 28 Days Later, you should already know the answer. It's simple: monkeys. Monkeys. Some are more monkey-like than others. You could say "less evolved". The crawling ones are slightly retarded. Monkeys. They don't know how to use their opposable thumbs! Monkeys. Monkeys. The great apes are quite peaceful creatures, and only attack when threatened. For instance, by a survivor sneaking around acting all suspicious-like. Monkeys. The damn things are chaotic creatures by nature! Monkeys. Wild gorillas may survive to age 35, and wild chimps live about 50 years.

    Dirt.

    I've been working outside lately and after several hours dirt gets everywhere. Dirt in all three of my knives, dirt in my nails, dirt in my hands, dirt on my face, dirt in all of my pockets, my boots, dirt all over my jeans, dirt all over my jacket, dirt on my hood, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt. Dirt sucks. I'm pretty sure any survivors without a change of clothes would start to look and smell like the Creature from the Black Lagoon after running around for a couple weeks in rainy Chernarus.

    Some sugestions

    Are you serious? So they can run around you, laughing while under fire, playing Call Me Maybe in direct chat and telling everyone where you are? And red hats? I really don't want a bunch of players running around like the Travelocity Gnome. DayZ should be PvP only on the main hives. They shouldn't even consider No-PvP options, just like Aston-Martin should never have considered the Cygnet. Ruins the brand image. That sounds like a troll's dream... your other suggestions are fine with the exception of talking to and/or healing zombies.

    dayz 2017 question

    Nope, don't know when the next update will be out. I don't think the 2017 devs have said anything about that either.

    I just saw a humvee. Hackers?

    My favorite car, aggressive, good off-road and slightly more bullet resistant than others.
  7. Myself, I don't understand it, at all. Each to their own, but still, I find it hard not to come across as scornful of those servers or those who play on them.

    Dayz for Laptops

    Probably if you spend enough money. I'm running it on a Toshiba Satellite notebook, and it works, although it's most definitely not giving optimal performance!

    What Kind of Player Are YOU?

    Go for the legs! It's all about the legs!

    Capturing Live Players

    I only capture dead players... I wouldn't mind a tranquilizer gun, but I know jack all about them. They'd have to make it realistic, maybe the resident exotic animal handlers can tell us more about the various models and their effective ranges, accuracy, potency, etc. No tranquilizer rounds fired from your Makarov, please.
  11. Probably been mentioned many times before, but we should really have a PKM and an RPK-74 in the game. They're appropriate to the setting, they're very common weapons, and they are not overpowered. I hope with the addition of the Sa58s and a couple other weapons that we will see these added too.
  12. Lol? And it's flawed. Completely useless except for vehicles. I got a near-direct hit on an unsuspecting guy with one in Wasteland, literally a foot away, he was uninjured and I heard him shout "whoa! that thing almost got me!" and then laugh about how unrealistic it was. You know what I wanna see? Land Cruiser J70, or J75. I don't even care if it fits the setting, it's just so damn cool. :D While the devs are at it, they should add the PKM to the game.
  13. Oops, I got confused, I thought you meant drop "NATO" magazines for M107. This is what happens when I only watch half the video. Well, you get the jist of my comment.
  14. I'd take one over an AK-74 any day. Unless I felt like taking an AK-74 that day. It's way better for long range fights but you'd better make your first shot count.

    explosive zeds

  16. I'm gonna have to try this 1944 mod sometime. I have the mod and it's fun, but haven't played it online. Pistols feel so much more powerful and the gun sounds are scarier.
  17. Maybe he used his common sense and assumed Bohemia used their common sense and gave both types of magazines similar damage instead of turning one type into a veritable 50mm cannon.
  18. More gripes: -Why is the PDW named the PDW? -Why is the Winchester a slug-firing shotgun? -Why can the PDW take Glock 17, MP5, and M9 magazines? -Why can the MP5 take Glock magazines? -Why do the Sa58s take AKM magazines? -Why is it called an Sa58? -Why do the M24 and M40A3 take "magazines"? What's with the "subsonic" 5.56mm anyways? Subsonic 5.56 would be super ineffective, basically a glorified .22. Even with heavy bullets it would be awfully, awfully weak, and more concerning, probably wouldn't cycle the action properly, or would give a large chance of feeding problems/jams. There is subsonic 5.45mm though, so...? I'm pretty sure there was also a subsonic 5.56mm produced for the SEALs or something like that, but as far as I recall it didn't cycle the action and was used to eliminate sentries, then they would switch to the standard stuff...

    Hero perks/advantages?

    Tell me about it... this is why I can't do convoys, in five-ten minutes of driving I'll end up 1000m behind everyone else.

    Zombie Bin Laden! I knew there was something fishy about that burial at sea...
  21. How about I'm a Barbie Girl?

    winchester and 870 damage

    That's weird, according to the Wiki they both should fire the same round with the same damage... I messed around with the Winchester values and didn't notice anything strange, either.

    Do's and Do Not's when playing DayZ

    -Don't say the word "bambi". -Don't say the word "Frankie".
  24. We've been bad puppies. The only devblog update I want to see is some standalone food. Like Whiney-O's, or Immersion Crumble.
