I am afraid, this will be a a grave error. Private servers saved the mod. However, there is no such thing as an impartial admin when they themselves play on the server. Every single server has admin abuse or admins helping buddys you might not notice it because it maybe subtle .But its there. I wouldnt mind if those private servers stayed out of the main hive. Like it is now. |The current problem is client side saving of settings. For crying out loud you can just load the mission map as is(recieving mission file) in your editor and stroll around the map looking for camps etc. Recon without rules i call it. You do have a to find a workaround for single player not being available on mod launch:D but there is a workaround. Or better yet just De-PBO datt shyte and just look at the coords given. If anything ANYTHING in these type of games is stored client side(or private server side same thing) you open the way to abuse and unfair play. Admins are only people and eventually will cave to powerlust if they play on they own server.

hahahaaaaaaaa SO AFRAID OF THAT SHITLIST.

Abusive admins is a recurring theme, in privatly owned servers. It starts with motivation. Either you want to build a good thing, or you are nterested in your own personal enjoyment.

Is not natural it is in fact learned behaviour. Not killing for no reason.

I just shoot people for sport. To see whos better at not dieing that sort of thing.

Thta why the first hit is so important. Im fine with that, i only play hardcoreservers btw. Obviously im not going to pull the other weapon i am going to use what i have right there. A DMR is an M14 for all intents and purposes. There is a reason why bolt action rifles are not used in this situation and semis are. I dont get the argument here? this is not a shooter game? i am very confused. Having sniper rifles rule on a terrain set like chernarus is infact very realistic. Shooting mechanics need work though. Wind deflection etc

Because zombies ate the weapons?

The Op point and argument is deeply flawed, i would like to point out that. Is a fallacy. Stating that a lack of crosshairs forces anyone to aim down the sights is not correct. The simple fact that people also die to this on hardcoremode servers refutes this. Infact with some practice its not hard to ``get lucky`` getting a few kills out of this. at close range. And like all firefights its not a matter of what weapon is bigger. Usually what matters is who will get hit first. IF you use assault rifles you primary asset is automatic fire, learn to use and love it. Fire and displace etc etc. Make sure you get that first hit in. Let me stop you right here. So if you would kindly wait and keep in that pose looting the building as you are doing. Ill woop out my CCO carbine and store my DMR in my backpack. Your argument is again flawed because you assume you will not be able to use a weapon at a shorter range then its intended use. Its not artillery dude, there is no minimum distance requirement. A DMR is essentially an upgraded M21 therefore it retains all charachteristics of the m14. Wich was intended to provide a stable platform at any range out to 800m. The original m14 even had an auto function reflecting this. A valid question. Like all firefights its not a matter of what weapon is bigger(if you are both in effective range of eachother). Usually what matters is who will get hit first. IF you use assault rifles you primary asset is automatic fire, learn to use and love it. Fire and displace etc etc. Make sure you get that first hit in. Force him/her behind cover. Suppresion fires work in dayz. And most important dont get ambushed or caught with your pants down. Also play on hardcoremode servers. Sums up my point nicely.

havent noticed any diffrenece. You guys sure there has been an update?

It is in fact the best way to get loot. Per time unit invested a good sniper gather more loot then a guy scavenging and subsequently getting shot. Also my huey runs on tears.

from 1 mildot to 1 mildot is 100m. So 50m is half that distance.

So we are comparing a marksman rifle(SVD) witha true sniper/scout rifle. An SVD in soviet doctrine is used at squad and platoon levels. M40 scout/snipers operate as teams on batalion levels as attached elements or organic teams. Both feature a rangefinder in the scope. The SVD uses the PSO the M40 the mildots. However its clear the m40 can be zeroed while the SVD can not. So +1 for the m40 as a sniper rifle. However the SVD has semi function and a lower mag scope. So +1 for the SVD as marksman rifle. They are both diffrent beast with some role commonality. However they both shine in their own intended role.

Stick to mouse and keys. I tried both. I get more and tighter controls that way. Anwyays are the pedals calibrated, and does arma support rudder pedals?

I fired the FAL 7,62 rifle in my consciption days. Brittisch know it as the SLR i know it as the destroyer of shoulders. Basicly it kicks like a mule. It has a full auto function but nobody knows why since its utterly uncontrallable in full auto. In fact it will knock you on your ass if you aer not carefull. I do not know if an m21 kicks in the same fashion but i imagine the m14 being an older design also kicks quite a bit.:)

Or we add the shooting system from ACE mod. If they can make a kill at 1200m shooting through 3 wind layers they deserve the kill.

offcourse not. Thre is bleeding involved. But a tourniquette is easily made. It doesnt ahve to be fatal.

Firstly the day when standalone hits, i shall unveil my secret bandit group. ive spent laborious hours, turning 5 chicks into merciless bandits. They now operate as a team and well at that. I used my skills as an internet warrior to convey the importance of small unit tactics. Next i used my limited military experience(i was a conscript you see:D) to actually teach them small unit tactics. They manouver like pros, are highly accurate in both judging distance and firing of weapons. They have only 1 weakness,......cosmetics. As soon as they loot lipstick or some other junk. They cant be reasoned with.

Its exactly like that, You think you die instantly because the round carries so much energy? Fluid displacement wont kill you unless vitals are hit. Loosing a hand is painfull but it wont kill you if you know what to do. The pain might possibly make you pass out, but thats a diffrent story. I would want a weapon that works and works well in adverse conditions. Enter the soviet weapon family. Btw all modern assault rifles are ``lifted`` from der nazis, since they begun chambering for intermediate rounds(assault rifle ammo) So that includes the plastic toyguns from the usa.

First of all thanks for your time investment into our fun. I do appreciate it. However id like to point out that in fact you did not provide an answer. Thats fine your perogative offcourse. But if you dont care to enlighten us, why post in the first place.

Well one ``fix `` would be to make footshots etc not instantly lethal. I dont expect anyone to get up after a 50 to the chest. But if you take my foot of i still have some bleeding to do:) And people can run fine with 3 toes missing as long as its not the big one.

oh wel i teried to bring reason. Guess ill butchers hundreds more with my gawd gun.

THE MISFITS-HUNTING HUMANS.

THE HORROR.

At least its a valid point. Because its true. All i see you spouting is how other people are wrong with no solid argument attached. Trizzo nailed it. And so long as we are not going full realism, its only fair that gameplay balance is looked after.

If only Arma could simulate the `` night eye``. But true enough if its waxing moon and overcast. You can up your gamma all you want it wont help a bit:D Need a light soure for that.
