Yes sir, I also own a mosin and 300 win mag, also several pistols. The only gun I've shot that has recoil similar to the game is a 50 cal Barrett at my local gun range. Recoil on ALL guns ingame larger than a .22 is not even in the realm of realistic. Go check some youtube vids of people shooting from standing and prone and you will see what I mean.

Recoil is ridiculous on the winchester. Very tired of that game mechanic being so far off base.

Can someone confirm zombies are gone ATM?
Girth Brooks replied to IgnobleBasterd's topic in General Discussion
Very loud zeds on experimental. Seems like a gaggle of them are chasing you but it just ends up being one really mouthy zed instead. -
Aircraft: What kinds would you like to see? Share your opinion!

Orbital strikes plz. -
Good old fashioned american nickel coin has been my go to for over a year

How would you feel if 1st person perspective was mandatory?
Girth Brooks replied to FlimFlamm's topic in General Discussion
I'm for the 3pp camera being adjusted, as I go between both view modes as I play. Being able to see without exposing your braincase to a bullet is pretty gimp. Also, right now Zs don't make noises as they should, and it makes 1pp a bit of a pain. -
From housing bloc in Chap to Cherno grain towers are 750+ meters away. Even further for firestation. Even further for coast and docks. I play the game just like everyone else. Try not to use that suckbot so much and you won't die. Plenty of other people make these shots everyday. All I've done here is just give my two cents on sway. It's ok. I've dealt with your kind before. I love all ya'll.
-
I'm not mad that the scope is leaving the mosin, plenty of other weapons to use. I am looking forward to the SVD . I'm sure you will complain about that too.
-
Not my prob you can't shoot broseph. People seem to have such a hard time with it.

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Girth Brooks replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
I've noticed that firing a gun in towns isn't really that bad, seems like there is a limited range that the Z's can actually hear. Only on a handful of times have I ever really had to deal with more zombies running over even though they were ( I thought at least) within earshot. -
You only have a second maybe when you zoom and hold breath before the sway kicks in. I've made several 900+ meter kills in Cherno that way. Patience is key here. Also splint up if you've had recent zombie contact. Also if you get cold you will get the shakes, which is a biotch until you make a fire.

The Great CLE Loot Experiment (Starving Players)
Girth Brooks replied to CrashBoomK's topic in General Discussion
Fruit and veggies are invisible right now unless you tab for them. Loot IS spawing but tends to find a weird out of the way place to show up. Just how it is until next patch. Low pop servers will have more stuff on the coast, high pops have been picked over and now most decent stuff spawns inland. -
It used to crash servers when you blew a pump up in previous builds, but I'm pretty sure that has been fixed. The idea about using big gas tanks to fuel a house etc is kinda coo
-
With the advent of early access we are all beta testers so to speak. And we pay them to test. Game companies are loving it right now. No more paying people to find bugs. We pay them, they profit.

What next development milestone gets you most excited?
Girth Brooks replied to ebrim's topic in General Discussion
Hmmm... renderer so my gfx card will actually be pushed to its limits, and also flashlights being relevant again. Instead of being a beacon of death. So yeah. Renderer. -
I've been killed by ladders and stairs more than I've ever starved. I may have starved 2 times i think since I started playing this game back in the early .40's builds. I'm sure EA has an easy-mode survival game in the works that will be right up the OP's alley.
-
Your old ass OS probably has been part of a botnet since april of last year. So when the forums get DDoS attacked you are partially to blame.
-
I've been dropping them in the woods. Sorries.

When will the Sway be fixed?
Girth Brooks replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I own a mosin myself, it shoots great for a nearly 100 yr old weapon. Now I will agree not all ammo, especially old surplus, is created equal. I had a broken arm yesterday I didn't realize, and the sway was awful. Splint and I was all good. It seems to me you get less sway at a crouch than standing, but I've just started to really pay attention to it recently again. -
I'd buy that for a dollar
-
KoS will always be there to some extent. The sniper on top of a building has nothing to fear from zeds on the ground. So you will still die and cry on the forums. This is the anti-game. Remember? Brutal. Painful. Die a lot. Frustrating. Rage quits. Plenty of games out there that you can reload your save when you die. Stay hidden and quiet if you don't wanna die.
-
Un-optimized maybe? Honestly I think the arma engines have been gimp since the get go, but the way they are open to mods makes them bearable. Since this engine is a mash of different stuff, I hope it will perform as intended.

this game just isn't the same anymore
Girth Brooks replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
How do you revive an unfinished game? A good ol search would net you a bunch of similar threads that everyone has read and facepalmed already. -
this game just isn't the same anymore
Girth Brooks replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
That other game updates every other day. You can have lots of fun playing it. Or you can magically shat out a finished game. Cause that's how game development works. Right? -
v3s climbing (even more) nerfed in 0.54?
Girth Brooks replied to ThePhilosopher's topic in General Discussion
Been driving off-road pretty much exclusively lately and they climb hills just fine for me. The drivers perspective is a bit wonky though. And the trucks can bounce and splat you as you walk up . I've been super careful lately walking up to them.
