random mood for a dog? and a dog woud have a 50% chance of sniffing out a Zombie, even though it's supposed to find a Human? So you want to tell me, that a HUMAN can differentiate between the "smell" of humans and dead flesh(that's dead for at least 3 months)? Some dogs have ~200 million smell-cells, while humans only have ~5 million. (Yay, wikipedia is your friend)

For me personally, DayZ is a: Survival-game in a world after the apocalypse caused by Zeds. It should be kept as "realistic" as possible. No "ghosts" in the woods or sewers in the dark. Every action in-game (screaking doors, birds flying away suddenly) should have a real cause behind it. If you want horror, go and play TheForest, Slenderman, etc.

Because in the apocalypse military equipement will be become really really rare, because it can not be re-produced as easily as survival-items such as leather-coats, -puches, -coats, -backpacks, -armor, etc. However, I could accept having mil. and civilain/survivalist-gear, if the ratio is like 1:5 or even less ;) thanks for the MadMax-pic, e47!

nahnah, i was just joking, don't take it too serious :p keep writing like that ;)

Who? The Blunderbusses or the players?

or a blunderbuss from looper xD

on the one hand I want this to be protected from bandits, but on the other hand I see the problem, because it makes KoS more rewardable and DANGERERS the true bandit's work. A true bandit waits and carefully traps the player. But all the work would be useless, if the trapped player could easily outmaneuver the bandit.

*bump* because awesome gun is awesome and to spread the word.

Yeah. I can't see the problem in a lever-action rifle being more powerful than a M4 or SKS :huh: Keep in mind, the Mosin doesn't always one-hit-kill within 100m. Often 1-3 shots are needed due to lag, body-armor, limb-shots, etc.

I know :P because ammunition does always the same dmg and has the same speed (same speed&dmg for the Amphibia and Ruger 10/22)

dropped my Mosin+LRS+Bipod some days ago (haven't played for quite some weeks) to re-arrange my crossbow&Mosin. "No connection for X seconds" http://www.nooooooooooooooo.com/

the DEV-Team is working on a pump-action shotgun for quite a while now since it was leaked in twitter. (they work on the eastern mp-155). And the "reload-system" is the same on lever- and pump-action-rifles/guns. You manually load each shell, and after firing you need to make a movement (lever or pump). So I could imagine, the MP155 will come a bit earlier than the R92

that's what I meant ;) But now that I look at the pic again: the mag is as long as the barrel :s Yeah, my bad. I got too carried away in the hype of a lever-action-rifleee

Both options would be cool. Only saw off stock, or sawing off stock+barrel(+lowering mag-capacity) in german it's "Karabiner", so that could be the reason ;)

ChrisTorchia twittered some time ago that when a lever-action-rifle is implemented, it will be one, which can sare ammo with current guns. and when the Marlin was suggested, he answered something like "if a lever-gun, than this" so it's pretty sure ;) EDIT: WOOTWOOT Twitter says that CTorchia is working on a Rossi Leveraction Rifle

just for your info: water-purification-tablets are not needed right now, because right now, you can not get sick by drinking water from ponds/lakes.

green mountain and safe ;)

Yup. I know, DayZ is meant to be a "hard" and "unforgiving" game. But not everybody has the time to search and search and search for 1 thing. Server-hopping is for the people who want to skip the effort and want to have time experimenting/having fun with things. However, dead-serious hard-core-pro-gamers can still live by the "server-hopping is a sin!"-rule. and if the Pro-gamers are angry, because some newbie with a super-rare-item killed them, they can just go and play on hard-core-servers, TBH, I don't see the problem, but I can understand it. Some people want DayZ to be unforgiving, etc. with respawn-timers of 7 weeks, etc. ( ;)). But quite a big part of the players isn't into the whole hard-core-thing. They want to have fun, etc. (including me)

Damaged/ruined autumn/summer hunter pants look better, IMO.

I think it could be made, but with different parts, like pants and top. For pants 1 burlap-sack is needed, for the top 2 sacks. Sewing kit + burlap sack = raw Ghillie-suit And then paper-sheets+back/green spraypaint+sewing kit or leaves+ducttape/glue could be made to "glued leaves" or "painted sheets" in stacks of 5-6 pieces. Then 1 stack + raw G.-suit = Top-ghillie or ghillie-pants Maybe the Ghillie Suit could also degrade over time, so there's the need to "repair" it with leaves+glue, and/or black/green colour. Also Zombie-guts, etc. could be hung(?) over the suit, so Zed's are less likely to attack and follow you.

Wonderful! and damn, that really looks like a Zeiss-optic :>

What should I say? Have mah beans! A whole bowl and some bacon with it, too! But srsly: It's hard to say for me, but... The longhorn should stay 7.62-ammo. Different stocks, barrels, etc. would be cool to have. (Like different barrels for the B95 with 1x shotgun & 1x rifle, or 2x, rifle)

Could you find the pic of the models somwhere? Please? :D Thank a lot ;)

????? WAAAAAAA MAAH SIIIGGG :D :D :D :D I also really hope the new scope will be for the B95, too. ;) Hunting scope for a hunting rifle. I mean. why not? Suuure, "realism and such". Over-under-barrel aka not accurate @ range, blablabla. It could be made, that the first shot always hits the target, but the 2nd shot goes off a bit more inaccurate or smth. like that (if you want to have it "realistic") However, this is a game. So why not making both shots accurate? The B95 has a dispersion of 0.04, like the SKS! So if both shots would hit, would that be a big drama or mess up the in-game weapon-ballistic-balance? ==> Nope
