Way better for who? Play hardcore and get off your soap box. We have had this discussion a dozen times already. You will love it, Hardcore is much easier.

Guns are everywhere now. The brick buildings with a door on both ends are spawning them. Cafe/corner buildings often have a mosic B95 or shotgun in the bedroom upstairs. Barns and Piano buildings have all the civilian rifles. Get inland towards Dolina and Polana. You are likely to find something.

I honestly thought it was an intentional feature to give a heads up! Surprised to hear it was a bug!

Get a room you faceless rebels! :lol:

I say yes. It made it unlikely that you would be surprised by a logging in player. Makes you more cautious about where you log in and out.

Guess what, you people talking about limiting communication through outside sources are wishing away technology. You can't remove those. Don't waste your time crying about it. If they somehow found a way to block Steam and TS chat, folks could just skype or FaceTime or even call and use a cell phone.

Yeah, the NE end of town. There will still be some folks up towards the hospital at times, but it is mostly the school/lumber yard, downtown, and the policestation/medical facility. Go near that area and you will ALWAYS find action on a 30+ man server. You will likely find an unlimited ammo mag and your death eventually as well, but it is a fun run to restart when you are ready to regear.

I wouldn't say they are just as dangerous, but you cannot ever let one get near you. You need to treat them with caution, because you do not know them. Give them food, point to the water they need, but always treat them with care.

How about you take your balls out of your purse and go in to the building to get the guy? Why sits around for 20 minutes if one guy went in a building?

Not to mention those times you log out and legitimately don't know anyone else is around. I have cought a couple players who attempted to log out while I was stalking them and they had no idea I was there.

third person is harder to use in a gun fight. Hardcore is easier though. You should play that. I have logged more kills in Hardcore than I have in regular at this point. People have absolutely no idea where you are until you make contact. Awareness is close to zero in Hardcore.

If shots are incoming, run for the woods. Reconnoiter the scene or make for the trees. Nobody remembers the dead in Chernarus.

Berezino and NEAF are the new areas to meet combatants. I dipped in there last night and killed three bandits at the hospital and two more down at the apartments before I made a break for Polana to lick my wounds (that is where I "live").

Gib, you want whatever your concept of reality happens to be. Don't blame me because I can kill a dozen zombies and five men between last night and this morning with the supposedly broken M4 you cry about endlessly. Similarly, so many people here think that this game can be something it can't be. The 4th wall sits right in front of you. Making the game somehow less user friendly isn't going to make the game played. I am thankful that the foolish opinions of folks like Gibonez are the antithesis of a successful game, which is why they will be ignored. Because that is what this is, a game. Shut off your monitor and go outside if your want a reality simulator.

How about those of us looking to play a game and not somebody's second life? The marginal realism this game has apparently causes people to forget it is a game and requires some ability to manage the interface and interaction for playability. If someone wants to know how many people are on, why do you care?

THe mod zombies are a glitchy mess too though. They are just different.

No thanks. You can still get a feel when you are picking a server. If someone wants a low pop server, they will go to a low pop server. If I want contact with other players, I want to be able to see if there are enough on the server to go looking for someone or if I need to log off and find a high pop.

It is life for them Zero!

My assumption is that much of the dispersion is meant to balance the full auto fire. But poor shots and bad players will piss and moan endlessly about how the game works against them.

Seriously over stating things. Are you looking for 200 yard kills? Then yeah, not an easy shot. At 100m it works fine.

Damn right Caboose. People who complain about dispersion and real life MOA are thinking to hard. Get out there and shoot some bandits whelps.

I have seen only one true hacker. I have seen plenty of glitched magazines stuffed in M4's in Berezino though...

People really need to chill. This is foolishness. Get over it. The Mosin is a bolt action russian weapon. They needed a bolt action sniper style weapon. The Mosin fits that perfectly well. Leave it alone.

You want the impossible. You can't have realistic weapons. There is no way to model M4's laying around the country side of a made up location, fired by non-existent people, using a mouse and keyboard (or worse, a game controller) to simulate an untrained civilian shooting. The sooner you accept the fact that anything added to the game is a compromise, the faster the rest of us can discuss topics without you stumbling in complaining about things that aren't an impediment to game play. And just for fun this morning, I used my M4, with pristine mag pul handguard and stock, but badly damaged carry handle, to unload on trees at roughly 50m, 100m, and 150m. In all cases, holding breath from a standing position, shots hit the bark. Take your dispersion nonsenses somewhere else and actually improve you playing. That will solve the "problems" you have with the guns.

Perfect Caboose! Only, Gib wants him to be like the top one, and everyone else to be super slow for...realism?
