Tell him to run to Olsha, there's a cliff he can throw himself off.

Update on different cartridges. From Reddit. Someone found this: I wonder what weapons these will be for. I wonder if it's a typo, meant to say "7.62x54R".

It's still there for the long range scope. It was never in SA for other sights.

You're thinking real life. It doesn't reduce recoil, redirect any gas or change the noise and flash in-game. Like I said, it just gives your gun the same accuracy as bipod plus prone. That doesn't make any sense.

I may as well come out and say it plainly: I hate how this device has been implemented and this thread is sarcastic. I'm pointing out how the new compensator's dispersion-removing effects make absolutely no sense. Nor is it at all consistent when you have the same device stuck on AK-74s by default. What, does it turn the Mosin into some kind of Wunderwaffe, but the same device does nothing on a Kalashnikov?

Nope, they removed that feature. What you see in Frankie's video is post-processing.

Yes. Anyways the AK-74's device looks almost exactly the same as the one we will soon be finding for the Mosin. It's likely to be better designed as well. So logically, the AK-74 should get from its muzzle device, by default, the same accuracy-enhancing benefits that the Mosin gets from its compensator, no? Should be a fully-automatic laser beam.

Not my screen; Phantasm found it on a test server. It's been there since the day of release, it just wasn't added to the loot. Btw, this thread is mostly about the AK-74M's muzzle device...

No no, give us a PKM. Fits the setting 650 rpm, spawns with bipod, sights adjustable to 1,500 meters and with the new health system it's gonna be 1 shot kill. Me gusta.

^but it says right on it: 20% Cooler. Maybe we should have "item: paint stripper"

Lol @ the two-shell speedloader for the shotgun. I assume the speedloaders will let you reload with the scroll wheel like with detachable magazines, instead of having to go into your inventory to do it.

I'd like to see them just because I'd expect to see vehicles, they wouldn't disappear and they wouldn't all be destroyed either. I never use them much though, they're only good for ferrying people and hoarding gear, IMO, two things I never did.

Yep. It's actually HALF magnification. You sir, need to take a class on how ARMA works. It's not logical for vision to zoom in. That's why vision doesn't ZOOM IN. There is no eagle vision, elf eyes or bionic man, it's just common sense, which is why ARMA has always done scopes that way. If you wanted scopes to be measured relative to the default "zoomed out" level, they would have to remove the "zoom" ability entirely for it to make any sense, and then you wouldn't see anything past a few yards. You can ask on the bistudio forums and see what kind of response you get from the ARMA "vets" and the modders who understand how FOV in these games work... They should be 1x zoom but they're actually only about 70% of 1x zoom. They could fix this by: [a] reducing players' "zoom" abilities to the same as iron sights or increasing iron sights to the same as players' zoom abilities In either case the zooms should be the same whether looking down iron sights or not.

The zoomed-in level IS zero. It's 1x. Zero, 1x, no magnification, etc. They let you zoom out because you'd need a massive monitor to be permanently zoomed in, otherwise you'd have an unplayably narrow field of view. Technically your eyesight is never zooming in at all. Think of it as being permanently zoomed out by default. Eyesight in real life is not eyesight in game. The ARMA system is "true to real life", that is how all scopes are measured in ARMA 1, 2, 3 and Operation Flashpoint. A 4x scope is 4x more magnification than normal eyesight. The sudden exception to all this is DayZ standalone. Everyone's noticing that the PUs and ACOGs "barely zoom" for a reason, it's because they're right, they barely zoom.

This is not how zoom is measured. Zoom = magnification ABOVE your maximum default eyesight. You maximum default eyesight remains the same in DayZ as it did in ARMA. Example of how scope zoom is measured: The M68 is non-magnified and is a true 1x zoom. It's the only optic with correct zoom. The iron sights actually zoom LESS than your normal eyesight zooms. They are only 0.71x. The ACOG zooms 1.5625x more than your default eyesight. I detailed this in the thread "the Campaign for Iron Sight Zoom". Taking from your measurements, 4.785/3 = 1.595 =~ 1.5625.

Glad to hear it, I'm curious to know the reason why.

All this talk of "nerfing" and "buffing" disgusts me. You got shot, deal with it. Don't scream "nerf". You can put 5 rounds in a Mosin whether you have a stripper clip or not. You couldn't even use stripper clips with the scopes in the way.

It only zooms 1-9/16 times, bit less than 1.6 power. Who knows why.

Not a Mauser product. But I did see *a couple* Mausers.

Mmmmm hmmmm. I have sixteen words for you, Dchil. Should. Never. Have. Been. Placed. In. The. Game. In. The. First. Place. What. A. Terrible. Choice. >: (

1, biggest reason, Chernarus is over 2,000 km from Moscow and only the Tsarist Russian Empire used the M1895 2, CDF standard service pistol is the Makarov 3, when I search for what police are seizing in Russia, I see a ton of Maks and clones. Most guns are semi-autos. However, being Russia, I also see a fair amount of Nagants! However, when I do the same searches for other former Soviet countries, the Nagants I saw in the Russian searches suddenly all but disappear: Czech Republic, no Nagants. Poland, no Nagants. Ukraine, no Nagants. Bulgaria, no Nagants. But the Makarovs and Tokarevs are still there. And I see many other semi-automatics of various quality, but relatively few revolvers of any kind. It seems to me the M1895 is only relatively common in Russian because they only used them in Russia. Standing by my comments!

From these:

And 50 times less common than Tokarev and Makarov pistols.

That works
