boring

that is not true. sometimes, yes a 5.56 shot to the chest could incapacitate someone, but it is not guaranteed, especially with the current ammunition the military uses. search youtube, there are plenty of vids of people being shot by an m16/m4 and then running away. to be perfectly honest, your better off not wearing body armor and being shot by a 5.56 nato round, as the round will punch right through your body causing minimal damage(unless a vital organ or artery is hit). the current 5.56 ammo that is used by military is designed to be used on people who are wearing body armor, which means there is a much, much smaller chance of the round breaking apart or tumbling once it enters your body if you are unarmored.

dude, bullets are not laserbeams. bullets have deviation in flight, which is caused by a number of different factors. bullets do not fly in an exact straight line, or follow an identical path from the barrel to the target, even if the firearm is not even moved a micron between shots. however, the accuracy of the firearms needs some work in this game.

its a horrible idea i hope it does not get added.

ill play night time servers when nvg's get added to the game, but not before then, since i dont like having to use exploits to make the game enjoyable.

i think you are missing the point.

God I hope they dont bring sidechat back

I dont think you should be able to carry 2 primary weapons on your back when your wearing a backpack.

yes in real life it would not be a good option, however this is a vidoegame and none of the drawbacks you describe apply

i hate the public hive structure. i play private servers mostly because i like to stick to one server. that and i dont like playing with a lot of randoms that just hop from server to server. there is no sense of community in that kind of structure, no consistant enemies, etc.

there is no such thing as too much murica!

ammunition is the best currency imo.

the ship demands a daily blood sacrifice. you were choosen.

i put some magpul parts on my sr556(ruger m-4) and it changed how i handle the firearm. for one thing the stock was a bit longer than the oem collapsible stock, so the rifle fit me better, which made me more accurate with it.

and that is what would really happen. learn human history noob. there are many examples in the past of what happens when civilization collapses.

it is to simulate the user being more accurate with the rifle, not the rifle itself being more accurate. that is the whole point of attachments. but without some kind of character stats/skills, making the rifle itself more accurate is the only way to do it.

they are lepers

and what exactly is wrong with that? you know, in a survival situation like we have in dayz, you would have to make and modify things to survive.

a rifle is only as good as the ammunition you put in it. you can have the best rifle in the world, but it wont perform for shit if you put crappy bullets in it.

military snipers do not use out of the box ammo for their sniper rifles. they get special ammo made for them by armorers. designated marksmen use the normal ammo that the rest of the soldiers use. hell they even advertise this fact on tv and show the snipers ammo being made.

purpose build snipers are rifles like thebarret 50cal that were specifically created for the military then converted over to civilan market, not converted remmington 700's. just because something is a military weapon does not make it better.

actually, the ammunition is mostly what sets the military snipers apart from civilian ones, with the exception of purpose build military sniper rifles. the military armorers keep might tighter tolerance on their ammo than the civilian market does. that is why loading your own ammunition is lightyears ahead of what you can buy in the store if you know what your doing. the company i work for used to produce .50 cal frangible rounds, but the hassle was not worth the profit in the end.

that is anything but realistic. it takes 10 bullets at most to sight in a firearm. you dont "fiddle" with remounting the scope to sight it in. you fire a shot, adjust windage/elevation dials, fire another shot, repeat until its sighted in. lol it takes about 10 mins.

considering its still early alpha i think its going very well. hell i have encountered less gamebreaking bugs in this alpha than i have in more than a few fully released games. hell this game in early alpha is in soooo much better shape than ps3 skyrim was at its full release, or bf3/bf4 just to name a few. to be perfectly honest, while i have encountered some bugs, i cant consider any of them gamebreaking.
