Most likely to bounce harmlessly off your unprotected skin first. -

Where did you ever get that idea?. Even a 105mm HE round only has a 50 meter kill radius. Jeez, you kids really need to visit the Reimer Digital Library and quit thinking "movies" are real life. -
Half the fun though is gearing up, after that.... Gets kind of boring.

Set your ping very high then let the server list load and hit Host, that will alphabetize it for you. -
/headshake /facepalm, I'm outta here.

What are you talking about? The only REAL difference between an M4 and an M4A1 is that the M4 is 3 round burst and the M4A1 is full auto. That's IT, That's IS ALL PERIOD. Everything else is exactly the same.
-
Uh, excuse me, but the M4A1 is still a carbine.

http://www.armystudyguide.com/content/army_board_study_guide_topics/m4/m4-study-guide.shtml Look at Number 28, what is the max effective range for an AREA target? Oh 600 meters you say? Why yes, yes it is. An AREA target is suppressive in nature btw, a POINT target would be a human being-standing still on a windless no humidity day- and that max effective range is 500 meters. Sure ain't no 2000 meters. M4 is a dog, always has been, it just looks fierce as all hell. Only real reason we went to them in the Army was because they fit better in a vehicle than that goddam musket called the M16.
-
Link please, I'd like to see such a miracle shot that even Jesus Christ Himself could not make with an M4.
-
I would like to add that absolutely NONE of those shots were EVER achieved with an M16 or an M4.

can people see where you're about to spawn?

Actually happened to me once and only once after a server reset, oddly enough in a Hanger at the NEAF. Two dudes were talking and saw me, I heard them, we talked for a bit and even teamed up for a little while. I even logged out and was still surviving when I did get to come back on. -
?? You're lucky to hit one at 800 meters, let alone 2K.

In the early morning hours, roughly after 0230 the moon rises and it gets pretty well lit outside. I would like to see more servers reset to 0300 or 0400 as start times. See if you can find a server with those times, it looks pretty good when the 1/4 moon is up.

What? No pictures of the Grand Chernarus Hotel? -
My LRS works just fine, so does my M4 and if I split my stacks of 60 5.56 I am good to go. I like having an AKM though so I dumped my M4 in a pond on stable.

So, I see a guy at NWAF yesterday, he is at a side profile and has on a wolf mask about 10 meters away, I decide to blast him. Problem is I have my axe in hand cause there are like three people on the server and I am expecting zeds not people. Also, I am in a Hardcore server with the tool bar glitch, I am trying to grab a pistol but the action keeps canceling. Fuck shit oh fuck. Of course the guy turns around see me and proceeds to shoot me with his SKS, he just unloads on me, BUT I am not even bleeding. I finally crouch and pull my pistol but he did hit me after all and ruined my vest with the pistols in it, they just go click. Shit. He pulls his axe and hits my back pack, I pull my Mosin and and kill his mask wearing ass, check the pulse, yep, no pulse, coup de grace anyway, fuck it. All my shit is ruined, everything in the back pack, my shirt, my vest, even my helmet and my toon is, still, NOT EVEN bleeding, even from the fire axe hit. WTF. I have a physical reaction and start to shake like crazy, my heart is pounding in my chest, I hadn't had that feeling since Iraq in November 2004. Jeez, Then I am not thinking straight and run through the tents checking for stuff, dumb, dumb, dumb idea, getting greedy always gets me killed, I know better, then BLAMO, 10 shots to the back and I am dead. What a dumb fuck I can be. Usually after an engagement like that it is my policy to run like hell past the next terrain feature. Oh well, though, my only consolation is he shot me in the legs and ruined all that stuff too, no doubt.

I have just found that too bit unwieldy, that's why I carry the pistol at the ready rather than a long rifle, especially indoors and around tents. Quicker to aim and higher rate of fire. Roughly half the kills I get are with pistols. So here is rule # 6 Never bring an axe to a gunfight.
