There's no reason why somebody should die of hunger in one four hour play session either realistically, but that wouldn't be fun now would it?

Let alone it would have to be a hell of a lot of servers more. There's tens of thousands of people playing Day Z across the globe.

I really don't see a big solution to the problem that doesn't just irritate players who do the right thing as well. Even then, I don't see the big deal for other players. The most geared guys still can be killed in an instant with a shitty gun like an IZH-18 if you are smart.

The only thing that will ever stop the coast being a hot spot for action is being able to spawn absolutely anywhere, rather than just on the coastline. People spawn there, so more people are there, and therefore the fighting and player interaction is always going to be focused there, especially with guard houses at the moment. And honestly you know what you can do to stop people going back to their gear? Hide the body, or ruin it all, if it's such game breaking concern, when it's not.

I personally find the MP5 kicks everywhere and fires too fast, and prefer to use the AKs-74u instead when using SMGs. Though generally I use the Sawn Off as my backup.

Pointless. There's a compact AK, and that's the AKs-74u. That's all that's needed.

The Winchester is hard to fire accurately simply because the gun's recoil is insane. You lose sight of your target after firing and have to correct yourself.

Solution: Suicide ruins all your gear.

I just don't see any benefit from a larger magazine capacity. It's realistic, but it's also not actually a CZ75, it's a Chernarussian copy.

Plus, everyone loves the fabulous display of fireworks at night right up close to the action.

I would also love to see an improvised hwacha as a mounted weapon too. A few steel or lead pipes + wooden pallet + duct tape, and fireworks as ammunition. Small explosions and inaccurate, but the fire power would be devastating if used correctly against infantry.

I like the one handed stance. The idiots don't notice the gun in your hand that you murder them with.

The FNX does everything the CR75 does, with two to three times the damage, the same recoil and firing rate, and the ability to add in better sights. It's a superior weapon to every other pistol in every way.

I do prefer the Blaze myself over the Winchester, because the recoil on the Winchester is too great to correct your shots - you can't see the impact.

What about the pistol holster?

Sporter is just hilarious to fire, the lack of recoil and quiet pew pew firing noise makes it feel like a laser gun lol. Plus, it tends to knock out over kill, meaning hostage time.

The Mad Minute record for a Lee Enfield rifle was with a No. 1 MKIII. 270 yards, 24 inch target, as many shots as possible in one minute with a 10 round magazine reloading with 5 round clips, with a minimum number of 15 hits. The British Army Sergeant in question who set the record in 1914 achieved the minimum number of hits and succeeded in firing 38 shots in one minute. But the action for a Lee Enfield was designed for very fast fire and is smooth.

Mounted MGs like the M1910 and the DSHKm would be cool as would be other mounteds like a small muzzle loading cannon or improvised rockets.

All pistols bar the Longhorn are supposed to be a stepping stone to the FNX. The CR shouldn't be better performing as a pistol, it should be worse. What should be happening instead is simply that the FNX be made rarer.

In Elektro, SVD hands down. Largest capacity and fastest firing rate, and quickest reload. The lower zoom and accuracy won't make any noticeable difference at the shorter ranges you'll be sniping at. The only downside is the rarity of the ammo and magazines, but if you got it then use it whilst you can. When in the northwest though, the Blaze I feel would win thanks to the increased accuracy and zoom, but only just. But personally I think for Sniping in Elektro, you should actually be using the Sporter with a scope and banana mag. It's much better for short to medium range sniping and suppressing than the SVD, and ammo is always a plenty with .22LR.

Bump firing is semi automatic fire manually pulling the trigger. It's simply utilizing the recoil of the gun to help you pull the trigger faster. Jerry Miculek if I recall faster fired off 6 shots in 0.8 seconds with a double action revolver, and double action with a revolver is a slower and heavier action than semi automatic, because the trigger pull has to turn the cylinder, cock the hammer and release the hammer all at once, whereas semi automatic requires merely the releasing of the hammer and the gun does the rest. It can be done. And a fire rate stopper isn't going to make a difference, considering the delay wouldn't be noticeable and someone firing that fast is probably going to completely miss anyway.

Semi automatics rechamber as quickly as full autos, with the SKS having a theoretical firing rate of probably 600rpm - enough to dump a mag in one second. When bump firing, it's very possible to achieve close to this firing rate, and honestly nobody will notice a difference if there was a very short delay before firing again. You gotta keep in mind the SKS has only a 10 round magazine that you can't instant reload without stripper clips, which is a considerable drawback when firing so rapidly as you will find yourself with an empty gun.

I liked the dot - was great for interactions with objects, but this crosshairs business makes hip firing too easy. I do feel part of the reason people don't aim fire much though is because how clunky and slow it is. ARMA 3's ability to jog whilst aiming down the sights is far smoother and less cumbersome, AND more realistic.

Oh and the Breechloading Ferguson Rifles of the American Revolutionary War, used by British skirmishers at Brandywine Creek to devastating effect.
