So normally I dont go for the M4 because I prefer the SKS for long range (Mosin is nice but loud and only bolt action), but I decided to get a M4 while at the NEAF. I used, looked down the sights and all was good, then I found the BUIS iron sights and put it on, along with a MP hand guard. Once I did that the guard and sight both disappeared while in first person. So this is what it looks like. I think you can tell this is really annoying and I hope there is a fix or I'm getting my SKS back :P

yea I know but some dont have the problem, im just wondering what is triggering it

Thanks its really annoying that happens to it

I'd love to see that gun in the game, be all cowboy and go around with Magnum and Marlin lol.

Orrrrrr get this...play both *gasp* omg a reasonable idea...I'm kidding, well just with the cynical remark. Honestly I don't think that'll work to well for you. The does have more and will continue to offer more for a long time (like probably 3-7 months hard to tell) but the mod lacks an actual development team that the Standalone has, modders can do a lot but with out professional level assets they cant come close to how polished the Standalone will be. But then again modder's can be a little more creative. One problem the mod has and will always have is hacker's do to its open source coding, the Standalone does have hacker's but they can be banned easier and because of steam their IP can be fallowed by the battle eye client I believe (not a 100% Sure). Also like Shagohad said above everyone in Epoch can get a really good gun, hardly fun to just get like 1 or 2 shot :P In the end the Standalone will win because of money and resources. Just how the world goes round ya know

Most people hate getting killed, I don't really mind sometime's. If you feel the same way then you probably won't need to read this because you either don't care about dying or like me learn from it. Dying is useful because you get punished for your mistake's, like running around in the open. You usually pick up on that after the 5th time. Or carelessly running threw building's in Cherno as fast as possible. The point is most of the time you die for stupid mistakes, either you were careless or impatient, possibly a little of both. Then of course there are tactics, like flanking or anticipating what the enemy might do. So instead of sitting in the corner of a fence after getting shot use the cover better and never stay in one spot either. There are countless things you could do better and you probably never do everything right (I know I cant), just use common sense a little more. Don't just act like a scared animal in a trap, be unpredictable! Be smart. Now do you understand why you died hitting the ground with an axe? Shake your head like these two if you do Just so you know all the examples above I have experienced.

Ah wow lol well glad mine isnt what everyone else was saying :P

Pretty much stuff like that is what Im talking about

Thats the lesson I was trying to teach and thanks for pointing that out, I didnt know about all the threads because I took a break from DayZ

Yeah you kinda did but its ok now that you explained it

lol im not trying to fix Kos I do it myself, but I'm trying to point out behavior that only gets you killed because you didnt think. Its not fixing Kos you will still get shot on site but you might be able to survive that Kos if your smart and keep a level head. For example when your getting shot at out in the open dont stop and look for the shooter, keep running until you get to cover. Stay down until you actually spot the shooter, once you do that determine if he's got you pinned down, that way you know to run for more cover were he'll have to change his location. You just gotta think tactically. So please next time read a little more before calling something a bandwagon :P

We all play the game differently and thats the best part :D

But you can learn to survive longer, I enjoy seeing how long I can go while still trying to kill other's.

That I would consider a mistake, you made a bad decision that you didnt need to make i.e. a mistake. Now falling down stairs and zombies killing you is something you had no control over, I should have made it clearer that this is all for stuff that you have control over and your decisions change the outcome.

Yea I feel a different way with the gear thing, its not that I worry its more that I don't mind like you when your a fresh spawn, but I dont do stupid stuff. Instead I hunt other people that are really well geared. Im kinda of a goodish bandit were I only hunt those that have a chance at killing me, if you dont have a weapon or even a melee weapon (as long as you keep your distance) I wont kill you.

No we need this

So I was playing as my white male character (that's what I am in real life after all) and I got off. The next day I log on the same server and BOOM! I'm suddenly the default black female! I didn't know that sex change's were this easy! All joke's aside, this is an annoying bug and I hope to see if fixed soon. Now there's one more problem I have...I'm stuck like this and I cant get her to change back to me...er him whatever. I tried killing her and respawning (didn't work). Changing server's (didn't work). Changing the character then doing the two previous things...well that didnt work. So any kind of suggestion on what to do would be nice.

Ah well I can't even try right now. Steam authentication is down :\

So you dont need a clip for the Mosin? Wow that help's as on the wiki it didn't day it had one and I didn't believe it was clip loaded any way :P

Thank's for the info, I just need to find a clip I guess :P

Does anyone know what ammo the Mosin Nagant take's? I can't seem to find any :P but if it take's 7.62 then I at least have some. Any info would be useful ^^

Hmm right note's you say? I'd love to write a note that lead's to another note that lead's to another note and so on. Make them think there's some kind of treasure and then they find it and its just a Mountain Dew XD

Uhh I like the night, but even when I got it installed at like 4 PM it was still pitch black :\ I don't really have the time to get on at like 8 AM to see the game in all its glory. Well at least the weekend is coming up :P Hope its just a bug that its so dark even when it isn't were your at.

Wassssssssup! Well I noticed the in-game voice chat isn't really that great as expected, well if anyone want's to play with some friends just join this TS server and BOOM! Great quality voice chat :D I also play the game, although I might put it off till there's some actual day time server's XD Not that fun to be stumbling around in the dark with gamma at max eh? Also if you don't know what Teamspeak is here is a link to the website: http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=teamspeak3 The IP to the server is: 69.197.34.130 Hope to see some more DayZ guy's there only two of my friends even have the game :P

Why do these things never happen to me :P Must be nice to actually get loot lol the big city's are barren of anything XD
