So far the bidding stands at one bullet. What caliber' date=' gotta take that into account so we can see whether we need two bullets or just one larger bullet to take the leading bid. [/quote'] .45 caliber, from a 7 round magazine, fired from a fairly used M1911. If need-be, we can bump this up to a 5.56×45mm NATO round from an M16A4 ACOG. And I'm sure if further enhancement is necessary, then I suppose a 12.7x99mm round wouldn't hurt. But I can't go higher than that. If the bidding gets too intense, I suppose whoever has the bigger gun could just throw the whole thing at me. That probably would win. Unless someone runs me over of course.

I'm gonna try going on the freeside trading site, but if that falls through or doesn't get any replies I'll just go with something from here. Hawk, are you actually interested in trading the m249 or do you not want to bother since general concensus seems to be one or both of us is in all likely hood out to murder the other haha.

Anyone interested, I have need of an m107 or an as50. I can trade nvg, rangefinder, or gps, please include a few mags. Additionally if you trade me the gun, mags and a Ghillie I'll give you all three. Steam name is zjc12025

Something like this Heavy Scared Breathing: could be very uneasing to hear.

AS50 has two zoom levels too, but you don't have to hold the right mouse button to do it. It also accepts both magazine types, has longer range, and from what I've heard, less recoil, less distinctive sound. I haven't found an M107 so I can only speak from what I've heard, and my experience with the AS50. I can say for now that I'd love another one of those over just about everything. Ranging it isn't hard, even without a range finder, you can use the mildots to get good estimates and all you need is a single hit anywhere and they're done. That said I still really wanna find an SVD camo just for the added stealthiness. And the rangefinder definitely doesn't hurt.

Only one flaw with instanty stopping saving at the map border. Example: players a and b go to the map edge. Player a steps outside the map, player b kills him, loots him. Player a respawns at his last spot on the map edge. Player b then walks back across the map border and saves with his gear, effectively duplicating player a's loot. My proposed fix, disable interactions outside the map some way. Make anything that hits the ground despawn, or transferred loot vanish. Hopefully these would be feasible without disabling driving outside the map to speed around as Vipeax said. We don't want any way to exploit lack of saving. We should squash this potential bug before dupers have time to figure it out. Edit: Another solution, if on foot drop gear at map edge, similar to water, except everything. Then you can pick it back up, no duping, and vehicles render you immune. Just don't exit vehicle in the off grid area, like not exiting a boat on the water.

Is north map boundary out of bounds? I don't use tents for now, but I have hiked up there and there is a lot of forest up there. I wanted to make a camp but figured I'd wait until something like this was implemented. Does that forest become plains at some point, or is it forest forever? It could be "uncharted territory" that still is fair, there are a few buildings up that way I know. If it becomes plains at some point that is a good cut off that leaves more expansive areas. If it is just forest probably leave it at the map edge. I like the idea of off the grid without being exploitive.

I usually average a few days, maybe 3. But the last week I've been playing much more cautiously and am on day 6 I think.

My bandit/survivor hunting has been paying off, I don't care about hoarding items while tents and vehicles are still being worked on, but I want to get something from the loot I have collected. I have a rangefinder, gps unit, and a set of nvg that I haven't got any need for. I will trade all 3 for: Ghillie suit, One of the following guns: L85A2/M107/AS50/SVD At least two magazines If you don't want all 3 Or have some other offer to make I'm open to some negotiation. Since I play solo and don't have any reliable location to store my items I will choose where the trade takes place. You can choose server though haha. Other trade details can be discussed privately over steam or pms for obvious reasons. Reply or send me a private message and hopefully everyone will leave happy.

I've been killing bandits and most have had some assortment of the above, I only grabbed one of each because I only have so much room in my pack for my primary and backup. I say I choose the location because I don't want to get ganked for what I do have. I figured apartment building in berenzio, out of the way, plenty of cover from snipers. And I would drop the gear somewhere, take cover in a nearby room or one of the other buildings, and trust them to drop the exchange items there, or somewhere I can see the items placed before they run away. Hell they can even bring backup if they want. If the location is that much of an issue I'll negotiate. Also like I said, I don't use tents or vehicles since they are so unreliable, so I'm hesitant to drop all my gear somewhere.. I'd rather try to make the exchange with as minimal contact as possible, no unnecessary risks that way from what I can see. I have steam and a mic and Ive used other voice clients so we can keep constant communication and make sure everything seems on the up and up the whole time.

I've been killing and looting the noob killers around Cherno and elektro, they seem to have goodish gear, but nothing that I want to use. I have one each of nvg, rangefinder and gps, and would really love to get a Ghillie or some elusive weaponry.

This would be fantastic. I would love for this to be a stealth patch. Some great poetic justice.

1911, same reasons as everyone else. Just a great pistol, always reliable. M24 for sniping. Great accuracy, not as loud as the .50 cals, usually one hit kill, zeroes out to 800m and can convert dmr ammo to use with it. Also, you an use the mil dots to estimate range pretty easily. Down side is it fires slowly and only has 5rnd clips. Either m14 or m4 cco as other primary. Either speed or stopping power depending on the scenario. Good accuracy, and easy to handle groups of players.

I'm partial to the m24 as a sniper rifle, and the m14 aim for mid to close range. Can swap between dmr rounds into 4 stacks of m24 rounds, so ammo is no issue. Powerful one hit kills. Found an as50 once, it was a lot of fun, but there era rent any servers with vie distance to max its potential. I never bother with smg unless I stumble on a bizon and don't have two primary weapons. I like the m4 variants for an assault weapon, sd is nice when you have ammo, though that can be difficult to get enough of if you are unlucky. Though if you find l85 it is by far the best. Found one of those, it was my saddest death to date when I lost it haha. Haven't used any lmg. I prefer single accurate fire to suppressive spraying, and I run solo so support weapons aren't my priority.

Log in to Canada 2. I have no idea why, but it spawns you in the forest just outside the map. Use the sun or stars to figure out which way east is. Head that way

Both positions around NWAF need correction. They both should be up and to the right slightly, so that the bottom one is on the lower right corner of the airfield, and the other is on the long strip, vertically positioned between the "A" in airfield and the dot that is the ATC.

Has that been stated ANYWHERE? This mod is still in "Alpha" for quite some time as far as I have heard. But if you have proof it is going to be classified as beta post it please.

Shooting range and chopper for me haha. Arma 2 is actually a lot of fun regardless. Too bad the script kiddies can't be easily traced though. I would love a post with news articles about fines and jail time haha. That would make my whole month.

I went up north for every life after I learned the main do's and don't's. But from all the posts about bandits ravaging the south, it seems like a good chunk of the players with good gear are in the woods just outside cities in the south. I'll sacrifice the best loot spawns and vehicles for some anti-bandit ops in the south.

Except for Stary, NWAF, and Cherno haha

I had a similar experience a few days ago. I found a bunch of bodies with backpacks and gear, so I was mixing and matching grabbing from them. I took a pack directly off of one of the bodies, and emptied its contents into another bodies pack, while pulling out the items I wanted. In the end I got a bunch of gear on me and an alice pack with a good handful of stuff in it. Lots of med supplies, a tent, and bunch of food. I found a safe place and logged out for a few hours. Later that night I rejoined and noticed my backpack was empty.

How is this thread not locked yet? lol

I second this. I would love to see all the confirmation messages removed. As well as counters for the number of kills. This also adds the "playing possum" dynamic to the game. You get shot (at) then duck and lay low. Guy approaches to loot, bang, 'oops sorry you were such a bad shot.'

Hey he only wanted to know how to dupe weapons, not spawn everything he wanted! Don't tell him that. You should delete that before he tries to go to Start -> Run -> CMD and do that.
