Only if you can make that holster yourself as craftable lol cause i dont see( specially not in eastern europe) a pre made side holster designed for a sawn off but you could craft one perhaps or convert something else to work as one...
-
He has the answer and you cant put it in the chest holster i would guess cause it a FUCK load bigger than a pistol i have suggested before that with crafting you use rope on sawn off to make an under the arm slung sawnoff.

Rocket answers to everyone who complains about 3D view
soulfirez replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
LOL that is one of the most short sighted non sensical things i have ever EVER had the dis pleasure to read. Many people have a problem with 1 aspect of any game and it no way relates to having a problem with the engine. I enjoy playing on harddcore servers honestly i am happy leaving you guys to it but some of the pure drivel that comes out of peoples mouths amazes me... EDIT and that goes for both sides of the fence 1st and 3rd people. -
Do you Think DayZ Should Port to Console?
soulfirez replied to bebopspeedy's topic in General Discussion
I have to admire your confidence in the ps4 or is it the confidence in the developers to super optimize the game cause well your ps4 as far as cpu power ( a major need of dayz arma) its pretty much a low end old laptop and well they dont run dayz so well lol .(maxed out settings lol delusional people with 3 to 4 k spent on a gaming rig that makes the ps4 seem like a calculator cant run the game that well on maxed out settings.) Im glad the new wave of consoles came out specially as so many developers do it for console first then port to pc so maybe pc will get some decent ports towards it . I think they will have a mountain of a task to get it to run on a ps4 and most likely would have to dumb it down quite alot plus and this point is selfish but um FUCK wasting development time on a console port finish a good quality pc game first before catering to the kiddie console market .... -
im not sure that restarts so wide spread is ever going to be possible. Just think how many items they want to add into the loot spawning,, then think how many zombies they want to add then think how many players they want to add to the mix, follow this with alot of people droping stuff after picking it up in random spots due to not looking at it when they picked it up but later realise its ruined etc. What i am getting at before long the server is going to be dealing with so many thousands of extra items the desync would be immense so then what instead of restart you add a clean up script to remove all these items im not sure the cure will be better than the problem. Hope i am wrong hope they can find enough juice in server side performance to run with no restart for weeks but i realisticly dont think it will happen... 1 a day might be the best we can hope for again i hope i am wrong but i just dont think so..

Got kicked from 8 different servers (low populated), why?
soulfirez replied to SirGaryColeman's topic in General Discussion
AHHH different story then yes loot farming or some other sort of other rule enforment which is NOT allowed by the current rules of server hosting. If you can make note of said servers and report as was mentioned earlier these sort of servers do indeed need to be stopped..... -
Got kicked from 8 different servers (low populated), why?
soulfirez replied to SirGaryColeman's topic in General Discussion
Always a safe way to do it but i have seen servers already with harder ping rules than id like but at the end of the day thats is a field they have the right to kick you for as you can ruin lessen the experience for others. My internet is far from great i can still find servers under the 50 ping mark ( just not alot of them which is ok i stick with one once i am there and it aint going to hell because of desync lag etc ) I only mentioned it because well the OP never really gave enough info to decide what was the reason if there was a reason to have been kicked. ( that and it drives me nuts i play a good low ping server then it starts to break down and i will see 2 or 3 recent joiners with pings 200 plus and then they vanish i could make assumptions but thats what they would be eg they may have been server hoppers looting a spot jumping to next server to loot spot again they may have been kicked for high ping they may have realised the ping was crap and logged out lol there are always many possible reasons but i find the comunity always seems to jump to the worst case. I got shot i am uber elite they must be hacking etc they may havee been but what evidence do you have. Rant over -
Got kicked from 8 different servers (low populated), why?
soulfirez replied to SirGaryColeman's topic in General Discussion
You never mentioned what your ping was ?? It is inside the server rules to kick for any ping they dont find usable on there server there are server crashes and resets which may seem like beeing kicked. Yes there is those loot farming lol just make sure it is that before assuming did you try re joining any of these servers to see what happened??? -
LOL it may turn into a bloodbath before they start the hunt its almost ingrained in the mentality of some of these bandits , person left click . The tension of seeing other players EVEN if the idea is to gather to hunt heros i am betting there will be sweating of blood finger ready to click the left mouse button. The moment 1 shot gets fired all bets off there will be a blood bath between the bandits. I can see it now the heros head into electro to find a mass field of bodies of the gathered bandits and one just got a little to itchy with the left mouse button......

see it was just as likely to have been a gama exploiter who killed takes far less skill or money to exploit the game mechanics.....

Heard what sounded like a bomb and saw smoke
soulfirez replied to capt. beefsteak's topic in General Discussion
Not trolling honestly it is the gas station mate you can blow them up by punching the pumps quicker to use an axe no hacks needed,,,,.......... 212 hours and you have never seeen it guess your unlucky as for the trolling lol i hate people who assume they know cause i got 212 hours in game man ..... -
Heard what sounded like a bomb and saw smoke
soulfirez replied to capt. beefsteak's topic in General Discussion
yeah try it go punch a gas pump a few times( well quite a few) and see what happens..... -
LOL i guess life was never ment to be fair but hmm seems the heros need to group together as much as possible cause there is what 1 hero to every 100 KOS bandit lol there is your real 1% survivour of the apoc the 1% who managed to keep there humanity . Think of the children the poor children ( wanders of clutching bible ready to bring salvation to the hethern scum who sully the name bandit with there left click left click ways lol .)
-
Agree with this but i dont mind if you add it i will just turn it off i need all the hearing i can get seeing i play in hardcore servers my senses are severly limited mess with the hearing side of things its going to be a painfull day lol . In the menu i want some epic theme music in game ( in any simulator game) if there is music i remove turn it down to 0 lol. this stems from my love of car games always turn the crap music off i want to hear the music of the engine the gears etc etc lol but yeah in dayz i want to hear the footsteps that will have me turn my head to see who be creeping up on me.....

I am finding it very difficult starting out
soulfirez replied to bdm634's topic in General Discussion
They are actually not to hard to kill with your fists currently . Takes some time but they will go down ( for me i find it easier to punch them down than use a melee weapon well unless its an axe. Check the new players forum section plenty good starter guides there id imagine best of luck mate. -
Hatchet as an alternative to axes (idea proposal: discuss)
soulfirez replied to crazykage's topic in General Discussion
No problem with the hatchet idea i would debate the amount of room it takes up from a stand point of what current items take up . EG a pistol takes 4 slots and well a pistol is alot smaller in most cases than a hatchet so going by that sizing it would be more like 5 or 6 slots perhaps. The idea of not being able to use it in the quick bar unless its in easy to reach spot i can go with this also but then that mechanic would need to be applied to all other items lol ( currently i have my compass in a protector case in my bag and the way it is its still as quick to pull out if i havee it in my top shirt pocket... -
Perhaps i should record stuff more often...
soulfirez replied to rydekk's topic in General Discussion
LOL i find it to be murphies law you record what your doing and for the most part nothing happens at all you just settle in to play and the shite hits the fan with epic tales of fail and or heroic ,baditry deeds. I often wonder with some of the you tube video makers how much footage just get straight deleted for there 30 min videos... -
You will have to wait quite a while ffor a bigger map be it dev built or modder made( i am betting modder made lol they work fast fueled with passion and love for the games they mod lol ) Check out some of the maps made for arma 2 by the community some are trully epic (yes some are even better than BIS made maps but that is just opinion i do like chenarus +)

What would you do to survive a collapse of civilization?
soulfirez replied to ryzoh's topic in General Discussion
hmm yeah i find the list of professions pretty messed up but i guess it depends on how you intend to survive lol(or from where your survival journey starts city /suburbs country town or out of the way farm like me ) . for me survival skills 1 farmer 2 medical 3 enginer going down to solider ( but then many soliders will have the first on my list survival wilderness skills. Just the ability to be effective with weapons is well not that huge a need almost anyone can be trained with a gun id take a good hunter anyday over a straight military guy why well a hunter can shoot at things but also knows the animals he is going to hunt for food tthere patterns hiding scent etc etc etc.( ps ex mil myself) -
Lost everything after getting scared off heavy breathing
soulfirez replied to MadMedic (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Im not sure i agree with that one its the fear of death and loss that makes the game intense! accepting that death and loss happens will allow you to play dayz. Died many times fully geared half geared hell on the beach fresh spawned and everytime ( unless it was bug ) i have fought or run like my life depended on it. Logging is weak and i still call this a combat log something happened he wasnt comfortable couldnt control the situation lost his nerve and logged. I class the fear of possible combat as still a combat log ( so we agree on that needsfoodbadly) -
What sort of twisted black magic is this?!
soulfirez replied to Really Old Man's topic in General Discussion
strange stuff happens i have been on a full server and run around electro and not met a single person on the other hand i have been on a server with 8 people and i have run into 4 of them in ( i forget the names of towns i cant spell hell i cant say half of them lol ) a smallish town central north west . But then maybe if your avatar looks like your profile pic they saw you and hid from the emperor lol . -
Hmm ok your helping development of the game??? Ah they already know about hackers lol they are doing what they said they would which is not make it impossible but severly limit the amount of it.. All the anti hacks in the world wont stop hackers ( real ones) the guys who get caught are using someone elses hacks and the anti hack catches those guys sooner or later cause just like virus protection a hack has to be made before it can be countered. You think hacking is just a problem in dayz ?? pretty much every competitive multiplay online game suffers from hackers the more popular the game the more people try to hack it, Why dont you ask EA there solution to hacking there a huge publisher with money to burn they muct have stopped it in there games right... WRONG games like battlefield are filled with hackers they come in waves get new hack buy it use it then the anti hack figure it out it gets stopped some people get banned then the next one comes. The problem i can see here is your trying to discuss a subject you know little to nothing about or your just trolling lol its a sad fact of life i wish it could be changed but it is what it is they will do all they can to limit it but it will never go away while the game is being played large scale around the world. So helping the development your just another example of a how a little bit of info ( and not knowing the whole picture) is a dangerous thing...

Will weapon cleaning kit fix ruined scopes?
soulfirez replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
as speculation the answer would be no a cleaning kit does just that cleans a weapon to maintain it in good firing order. the only thing that would fix a scope would be spare parts for said scope( no idea if this will or wont be added) new lenses etc for the scope.... -
What would you do to survive a collapse of civilization?
soulfirez replied to ryzoh's topic in General Discussion
LOL maybe maybe but what happens when in the panic and your trying to kill or hold up people for there food and well one of these seemigly helpless family groups shoots stabs you there is no respawn in real life lol ( i wouldnt use dayz as a lesson for anything in life well other than what people like to do for fun in a virtual world.) -
You sure you played the early games cause they never balanced weapons to even teams out etc come on thats just rubbish .. You play arma2 check out the different sides what weapons they have in there general bag of tricks and tell me they have been balanced for gameplay , they havent they have been balanced to be as close to there real world counter parts as possible in a pc simulation.. The bloody nato forces always had the best crap to play with lol arma 3 does seem to be balanced hell all sides optics and vehicles seem to be a different looking clone of each other ( although there starting to add a little more individualisim to sides now slowly.
