    question about the DayZ mod for ARMA

    90% of the arma 3 mod stuff for DayZ has been ported from A2 (AFAIK). In fact at one point the A3 DayZ mod needed you to have A2 so you could copy a great deal of files over like the map and several objects. I don't know if this is still the case. Modding for A3 is still in it's infancy compared to A2, Look at the stuff coming out for A2 when A3 was being announced, Total conversion mods and the like. A3 is still just getting all these custom maps and skins that just about every MP game gets within the first year or 2. IMO. Get A2, it is worth it.
  2. 1. They work but only at night and if they are in good enough nick. 2. Semi auto pistols are only 1 round at a time unless you have mags. Revolver is just "Load ammo" and you should just load 6 (f you have the rounds) 3. Nope. 4. Could have tried to handcuff/force feed you because it shows names. 5. PU has no where near the magnification it has in real life. The LRS is the highest zoom scope in the game and only goes on the Mosin at the moment. 6. Charcoal is for sickness. Purification tabs don't work yet, or we have no use for them as water doesn't have diseases.

    Improvised Shotgun Ammunition + Magnum Loads

    I have a question on the magnum loads. Has the IZH 43 (or the shotgun it has been based on, i'm sure it is a specific model) ever had a variant chambered for 3 inch shells (there are 3 inch shells that aren't magnum and vice versa) and if so how common is it? I reckon, if i go into a gunshop near me and ask them how many models do they sell that are made to chamber 3 inch shells and beyond, not many shotguns will chamber them. [Note I live in Australia where firearm ownership is heavily controlled. Pump action and semi-automatic shotguns are incredibility hard to get without a medical certificate which not many doctors will issue or owning land large enough to justify them in the eyes of the government. Therefore single and double barrels are the norm with the occasional lever action in there as either a gimmick or they are the main supplier for the area,]

    Red dot missing in optics

    Do you have a battery that works in them?

    SKS l Overpowered or just good weapon ?

    It is just a good weapon. It isn't just OP.

    Any Windows 8 users.

    8.1 here. But sometimes it will launch it but not let me use it, therefore it is run on compatibility mode for Win7 and as administrator.

    Hyperthreating - Intel I7/Xeon

    It is a possiblity. This was stated by Dean at Rezzed in the video containing the roadmap for development.

    When Stealth Fails...

    I was expecting a video of a firefight and the caption "When stealth fails, go loud."

    Surprise Motherfu**er

    I have loaded random guns lying about at airfields. But only if i have what i need or don't have a use for the ammo. Unfortunately one of my loaded guns got into the hands of an unscrupulous person whilst i was near. I got a 22 to the head as i tried to give him both barrels. I don't load random guns lying around anymore

    weapon suggestion "Desert eagle"

    I was more interested in the 44 magnum.

    Fedoras

    Eastwood hasn't worn a fedora with a poncho. Possibly never worn one in a movie.

    Graphic deaths

    I have to admit that i didn't know that that happens. They are breaking new ground for the engine. However Quicktime events shouldn't be one of them.

    Graphic deaths

    Does it matter for us? we already have it. Though it does limit those waiting for beta and beyond. Though i would like to see some gore in the game, i don't think the engine is set up that way.

    So where the makarov at?!

    *FTFY
  15. Dchil

    So where the makarov at?!

    Makarov? (a gun we haven't seen anything of for SA besides hints from the devs and how logical it is) or respawn (loot and zombie) improvements? Cause they can do both but i think the AK is priority at the moment and possibly the P1 (aka P38).

    weapon suggestion "Desert eagle"

    added slashes to keep this post small. What mod/map/whatever is that in the video to add those guns and the mission for the range setup?

    So where the makarov at?!

    Like most things it probably isn't done yet. Thus the reason we don't have AKs yet. EDIT: I kinda loled at the fact that this is my 1169th post.

    inventory design

    That is the standard inventory screen. For the mod at least.

    no news on the next update?

    Do you even watch the rezzed sessions? The plan was withing 2 weeks to the end of April. But that was about a week ago.

    weapon suggestion "Desert eagle"

    No. Desert Eagles are for wankers and target shooters. It is the ultimate "Wank" pistol. It is complicated, rare and unreliable unless you know how to run one right. It isn't used by literally any military, police force or security contractor and it is rare even in the American gun culture.

    Finding somewhere called home

    Nooooooope. But i probably should. Then fill it with shotguns and magnums until i finally find enough pistol mags to make having one worth while. Magnum and shotgun FTW.

    Canteen/bottle - drink all

    Yeah. All i can do is ride one down the driveway while sitting on it and almost get run over by traffic. Ok. This should be easy to do, but it shouldn't be a thing with cans.

    He is aussie, I'm aussie.... No i'm not him but it is quite the common thing to say nowadays because of it.

    Nek minit: Force Drink all Disinfectant.
  25. That's why suppressing fire is a thing. No need for accuracy at range if you can keep their head down long enough to shoot them at point blank. The shot is possible but my first choice in handguns wouldn't be a snub nose 38 but at least a 44 with a barrel length of 6 inches or more.
