    Barret 50. cal?

    Is it as easy to tear down as videos have led me to believe? I've seen a few of people disassembling these things and it looks like the upper and lower are held together with a couple pins and the barrel just slides in.

    Barret 50. cal?

    Body armor, goes inside a plate carrier. Will either stop bullets or produce deadly shrapnel depending on how well you can read English. They're also that thing that you get to wear while deployed and hiking through the mountains of Afghanistan with your ruck and your gun. So its to put 30 pounds into perspective.

    Barret 50. cal?

    I'm gonna be honest, I giggled a bit while I read your reply. First, how can I only have a massive gun-boner for Barrets if in the post you replied too I provided an alternative, much more likely, rifle? The KSVK isn't a Barret product hun. Second, saying fuck doesn't mean someones mad so calm yer tits. Third, if a gun is buried in a field or hidden under floorboards you need a tool (Shovel/Crowbar/Hatchet) to get too it, you don't need a pitchfork to move hay. Plus, if I were going to hide a gun for ~70 years I wouldn't hide it under a pile of hay. Sorry not everyone shares your opinion that we need a unicorn weapon when there are actual alternatives being used by nations involved in Chernarus. <3 (Also, I don't think CoD has alot of .50s not sure since the last one I played was the first MW.) EDIT: I went and checked real quick. MW/MW2/MW3 each had the Barret MW3 added the AS50. BLOPS has none, BLOPS2 has two (I think), and I have no idea about AW although one is apparently a 20mm. So it looks like 1-2 .50s per game

    Barret 50. cal?

    What is more believable to find in Chernarus? An M107/M82 that is currently in use by the US Armed Forces, who apparently intervened since we have downed Blackhawks full of M4s. A WWII relic that probably only exists in museums and the private collections of people with way too much money. A KSVK that is (I think) still in use by Russia and possibly other post-soviet nations. Also, who the fuck stashes a rifle under a hay stack? Those get moved about. If you were going to stash a gun back in WWII for eventual use, you'd get some thing watertight and bury it in a field, or under the floorboards of your house.

    Barret 50. cal?

    Meh, if they're gonna push western weapons with US/NATO intervention I wouldn't be surprised if an M82 cropped up eventually, or a KSVK because Soviets.

    Question about draw distance

    Or they could just make it so that no matter what, as long as you're inside the games render distance it renders you regardless of stance /clothes. You could miss a ghillie at any range in ArmA provided they weren't making themselves incredibly obvious. Just because you stuck some grass and leaves in fishing net doesn't mean you become invisible.

    Question about draw distance

    Wait, seriously? It stops rendering people at 300m because they're in a ghillie? Thats fucking horrendous.

    Just returned after almost a year...

    Whats changed? Items/Places We got some new guns Some new food New clothing items New towns in the north Rudimentary vehicles Mechanics: Hunting Cooking(Which is bullshit btw) Temperature effects (We've now reached the mod in mechanics, a year after release) Zombies seem to have disappeared from all but the large cities, even then they're fewer than when the SA launched Loot seems less plentiful IMO, unless you find a bugged barracks full of loot

    What gun was your first shooting kill with?

    First kill? I popped my friend in the back of the head once with an FNX for shits and giggles. First non-FF kill? 700m with a Mosin. Was taking shots at people running about on Balota from the highrises. Hit a freshy who stopped to loot a dead guy.
  10. Question. Who is maintaining a message bored with up to date kill info in the middle of zombie infested towns? Who the hell is spreading the "emblems" of people who kill lone survivors, or kill survivors from a great distance? Bounty hunting on a public hive (which the game is built around) is completely fucking useless since theres umpteen dozen servers that the person you're looking for may be on.

    Average Lone Wolf Wouldnt Survive

    General life expectancy was roughly 40-50 years back then wasn't it? So those mountain men were doing pretty well.
  12. Pandema

    The reason behind KoS: ?

    Because its easy. Because I don't feel like getting shot. Because I want what you have. Because I have nothing better to do.
  13. Life > DayZ If DayZ is getting in the way of real life obligations, just stop playing DayZ until you have some free time.

    Supernatural horror that stalks you

    Go play a Namalsk server from the mod that has Bloodsuckers turned on. Preferably at night. You will know what true fear is then.
  15. Pandema

    New renderer questions.

    You think city fps is bad now? Imagine if DayZ looked like that, EVERYWHERE would have horrible horrible frame issues.
  16. Pandema

    Should scopes in dayz have the ability to zero?

    Don't you know? You turn that knob and the gun dispenses vodka.
  17. Pandema

    What do you do after Gearing up?

    I just wander around till I find people, then generally kill them. Repeat until my eventual death.
  18. Pandema

    Should scopes in dayz have the ability to zero?

    Still waiting on that long rifle scope with mill dots/any sort of marking to make an appearance. PSO and ACOG shouldn't have had zeroing to begin with, years of having the center be ~100m has made it impossible for me to use those stupid things.
  19. Pandema

    Should scopes in dayz have the ability to zero?

    They can take away zero'ing as soon as they add scops with some sort of markings on them. I can use a DMR out to 900m fairly accurately because it has mil dots, using the LRS without zeroing would be absolutely horrible.

    Balze 95 is garbage

    Clothes and the items in them act as armor in DayZ because reasons.
  21. Pandema

    How many hits?

    Fucking Christ, people are too busy dogpiling onto this guy to push their view of how DayZ should be played to answer his question. @OP: Fire axe will kill someone in a few hits, splitting axe a bit more. But the way clothes and vests works as armor can make it take quite a few hits to have any effect.

    DayZ 2015 roadmap

    Is it bad that I look at that list, and the only things I'm reasonably certain will happen are a new UI, player stats, and a price hike.
  23. Pandema

    Long Break From DayZ, what's new?

    We got some new guns, temperature, and a few new towns. So pretty much nothing has happened since launch.
  24. At the base west of Myshkino? The one in the valley surrounded by forests? Me and my Mosin would absolutely LOVE to come along.

    DayZ Lack of Social Realism

    People don't act how they would in real life when playing a video game? Color me shocked.
