I'll swap ya an AKM and 75rnd mag for it :D

I like the AUG because it only needs mags to be a good weapon. The 1.5x scope is more of an aimpoint red-dot rather than something like the ACOG. People complain about the scope because they are comparing it to an actual scope. Obviously, an M4 with an ACOG would be the superior choice when comparing the two, otherwise they are equivalent in my opinion. Effective range is 300m, 500m is the maximum. The "scope" makes it hard to shoot at anything more than 300m though. It's shorter and looks smaller on your back than the M4. It's a more streamline gun, not having to worry about attatchments. M4 has the MP attachments that make it more accurate, CQB stock that makes it more maneuverable, RIS handguard that will fit the weapon flashlight and bi-pod, and a picatinny rail to allow for different sighting systems including the ACOG. It can mount the 5.56 NATO suppressor to the muzzle or a bayonet knife. It also has select-fire (Auto, Semi-Auto) and an effective range of 500m (800m with ACOG). The Steyr AUG is a bullpup configuration 5.56 assault rifle meaning it is shorter and compact yet still has a full-length barrel and the advantages that come with it. It has a built-in non removable 1.5x scope, sighted to ensure a guaranteed hit when aiming center-mass (up to 300m), built-in rangefinder (up to 500m) and a forward grip. Effective range is 500m. Can also mount the 5.56 NATO suppressor. All in all, it's a great gun to have before you find an M4 and an ACOG. I definitely prefer it, but that might be because I'm Australian.

It's Wednesday. Every Wednesday there is server maintenance, in which they check the hardware and clear the servers amongst other things. This is what your experiencing currently. EDIT: Oops, just read your post again. Sometimes (mostly persistent servers) just crash. Jump off, and rejoin a different server.

DayZ minimum/recommended Specs and your rig
alldaypk replied to LORDPrometheus's topic in General Discussion
The higher the single core clock speed the better. I'd focus your build on the cpu (watercooling and what-not) and overclocking it as much as you can. -
Correct Mounting of Suppressor East on AK Variant Rifles
alldaypk replied to erock482's topic in Suggestions
It was mentioned in one of the Weapons threads that it was just a bug. -
There's a Winchester to be added soon, hopefully with the new hunting scope. I can't find any posts about it, but I remember reading somewhere it might replace the Mosin as the designated "sniper" rifle. EDIT: The Winchester Model 70, comes with built in iron sights:

Vybor and Vybor Military base always seems to have action on low to medium populated servers. I can't tell you how many times I've been shot at or killed in that area. A good place to meet semi or fully geared players for some proper gunfights.

Who still uses Mosin (+LRS) for range kills?!
alldaypk replied to MarchmelloMan's topic in General Discussion
I know right? I don't think that's possible for a surplus WW2 rifle. -
Man you ruined his raincoat, you totally coulda taken that! Bloody awesome though.
-
A weapon spawns there 100% of the time, so long as no one was there before you, or it's a persistent server, at least in my experience. I've collected many Mosins and .357 Magnums.

That is literally my build. I get 18-20 at worst in large towns and cities, but it mostly hangs around 25 in cities. That is with 'Objects' at low. Graphics changes make little or no difference, in fact, raising them seems to improve fps. It takes the load off the CPU and puts it onto the GPU where it belongs.
-
The game only uses one core of the cpu on a very cpu intensive game (it'll be optimized in time). A high single core clock speed is what will make all the difference.
-
Hahaha no. What's happening is you're rejoining a server too quickly, wait until it says 14:01, or 8:01 depending on what time the server resets to. People have been complaining about how their character got reset and blaming it on crazy or weird reasons for weeks.

One weird trick to avoid upcoming character wipe

So you're saying that not being able to dupe is a bad thing...? -
What "End Game Gear" Should Theoretically Be Like At Release
alldaypk replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
I don't mind assault rifles, Sniper rifles, LMGs, full tactical military gear with pockets galore, huge backpacks and camo tents, humvees with mounted machine guns, NVGs or thermal scopes, SO LONG AS AMMO IS RARE AS FUCK, and electricity/fuel is a godsend. The most ammo I want to expect on someone is perhaps a full 30rnd mag and a collection of random pistol/shotgun cartridges. I don't care if everyone's got an AK (it's Russia) so long as no one has more than 30 rounds.
