Insane Ruffles

My question is, is the damage the same on the SKS and AKM? I can take out people in 2-3 shots with an SKS but Im not sure with the AKM.

The bullet actually did travel up, Soviet soldiers would be aiming around the stomach and would be hitting center mass every time. I doubt the whole Soviet armies sights were off.

Yes, using weapons without a bayonet should provide slightly higher damage than your fists. Bayonets also need to do a tone of damage, because if you have ever seen a Mosin Bayonet in real life, you will know that once you get poked with it, you are screwed.

? Mosin accuracy goes up to 1000 M, some even higher. I own a Mosin that was just shipped from Russia a couple of years ago, and that thing is accurate as hell. When I was shooting on a 300 m range, the bullet actually traveled up instead of dropping. Remember, the M44 variant was basically a Mosin that was able to fit a scope, and it was very accurate. Some people go out and buy beat-up Mosins for 100 dollars and then call them PoS rifles. Their stopping power and accuracy is what helped drive the German war machine back.

This happened to me yesterday. I had 2 ak mags in my pants and I stood still for a couple of seconds only for everything below my belt to be ruined,

As long as they are easily distinguished, and the hives are completely different. I don't want to be playing regular Dayz and have someone with an insta-kill Alien gun from another server come and kill me.

Please no. There will be barracks and guns everywhere. If I want something modded, I will go play mod.

I would say it was easy if this game didn't have ridiculous gun dispersion. Its pretty much impossible to hit a target above 500 M in your first shot, and by the time you make your second shot, the player is most likely already aware if he has his game volume on.

And where did you hear that?

No, I doubt it. I don't want anyone modding this game, and neither do the developers, I think. The only thing I would support being modded is Battle Eye, so people can implement or make better anti cheats as BE is crap at detecting hackers right now.

No, the Mosin damage has not been changed, it is the clothe's abortion that is 100% broken. I shot a fresh-spawn with just a jacket and backpack the other day in the legs and he was immediately knocked unconscious. Shooting someone else with little clothes on in the chest killed them. However, when I faced fully kitted out players, the same thing happened to me, it took me 3 to 5 shots to kill them, which is ridiculous, have you seen a 7.62X54 round? That thing will tear you apart with one shot. The clothing damage system needs to be changed dramatically, as clothes shouldn't effect a high velocity projectile in the first place unless they have the materials inside of them to do so.

A zombie pushed me into the damn boarded up room in the Police Station. Why is this ever here if you cant gain access to it? This character has been alive for 3 weeks and I need to get out. Dying is not an option. Is there a glitch i can do?

Thanks, that worked the first time. Thank you all, I appreciate it :)

lol thats the exact room Im stuck in... same place and everything. They need to remove it or something.

It doesn't let me vault in the corner anymore, must be prevention for glitching. This is really annoying and Im hydrated and full so t would take me hours to die.

Yes, netcode is terrible in this game. At least it isnt as bad as Men of War AS 2. They do need to fix it though, it gets pretty aweful sometime thought server connection also has an impact.

Every gun you come across does not have a magazine in it or anywhere around it "unless you get really lucky." This is both frustrating and unrealistic. It already takes a long time to find a weapon on a high pop server, and then you have to spend another hour or 2 searching for a stupid mag that should be with the gun in the first place. This just encourages server hopping. All gun owners, no matter if civilian or military, keep the mags in or around their gun almost always. Guns that spawn in the map should 85% of the time spawn with an empty mag (and 5% with a half mag, etc.) Few guns should spawn without a magazine near them because no responsible gun owner keeps their mags far away from their guns. The magazines could also be ruined to pristine. Certain types of bullets are already rare, we don't need to spend 2 hours searching for a mag to hold them every time we find a gun. Making bullets more rare would be better than keeping the current separation of magazines from their parent gun.

Weapon loot should be spread out and EVERY building should have a chance of spawning a weapon, and the buildings that usually spawn weapons: Police Station, Barracks,all other military buildings, should have a drastic reduction to spawn chance (they should still have a more significant chance at spawning weapons than other buildings, obviously). The reason I say this is because all Dayz has become is a mass KOS fest at these sites, particularly Police Stations. I saw 12 people fighting over one replenished police station the other day, and that is ridiculous. Spreading weapon spawn locations o every building would also make players concentrate on searching buildings individually, instead of making a mad dash to the nearest Police Station. Right now, when I enter a town, the only place I go is directly to the Police Station, because is the only building in town that is gonna spawn a Fire Arm. I only ever stop at other buildings if I need food or clothing. This gives us the same situation that Epoch gave us, *message appears on screen* " A convoy of armed hunters have crashed! Go now and get all the weapons you can!" This is why a lot of people disliked Epoch, because those missions turned into a slaughter house. This is the same thing that is happening with SA. Everyone is running to the nearest Fire House/Police Station without even stopping at the other building, because their loot is too mediocre. In a real apocalypse, ALL buildings would have chance of spawning in weapons, as civilians would keep their guns in their houses. Same thing for ammunition. NOTE: I am not calling for more weapons, they just need to be spread out more rather than being piled into one location. Spreading them out over a city would make them more difficult to find than just having all of them spawn in 1 or 2 buildings within the city.

What random spawn said, it is to prevent bambis from getting powerful quickly. What we need is for magazines to spawn on guns, but for guns to be more rare. There are still too many guns for an apocalypse setting IMO, they need to be way more spread out than they are now where all of the guns are spawning in only 3 types of buildings. That just makes everyone and their mother run to the nearest police station because that is where all the guns are.

Since our population has reached about 7 billion, humans are no longer here for "reproduction" hell, we've never been here just solely for reproduction. We are here because we are sentient, and because we have a very bright future with space travel and technology. If we were only here to produce, then we would still be neanderthals.

The sprint is not 30Km/hr, it is more like 15km/hr which is reasonable when sprinting at high speeds. What is not reasonable is the fact that you never get tired, and that you can sprint like that forever when, in reality, an average fit person would only be able to keep that up for a minute tops. Idk where you got 30km/hr from, I still play the mod and I drive cars at that rate and I can guarantee you characters in SA don't run that fast, that would be super hero speed.

This is a pretty stupid suggestion. They only gun you will ever cut the barrel off of is a shotgun, because it isn't rifled. every other gun has its barrel length because it needs it, and because it is rifled. You posting this topic shows that you have absolutely no knowledge of guns, sorry.

You should be able to commit suicide if you have a gun or pristine knife. When you do commit suicide, you should then re-spawn at the exact location you spawned at before. Seriously, this game is really bugged. It doesn't have to be a permanent feature but what the hell are we supposed to do when we get stuck in stupid places because of faulty game mechanics?

So I was at NEAF searching buildings when I walked into building with a jail cell. As I rounded the corner to the stairs, I saw a man standing at the end of the hallway with an M4 pointed directly in my position. Panicked, I fired off 4 bullets with my SKS, which all missed, and he exchanged 10 bullets my way, which all missed (we were standing 10 meters away from each other). I then run outside while shouting "friendly," hoping he would forgive me. He sure enough comes out with his gun put away saying. "You scared the sh** out of me." We then decided to team up for a little bit. We head down to the other end of the airfield, only to see dozens of dead bodies scattered about the ATC. Suddenly, some naked guy runs out screaming, "THE FLYING MAN TOOK ALL OF THEM, RUN!" and he booked it out of the airfield. Confused, we decided to loot some of the bodies and see what turned up. Out of nowhere, I hear "CACKAAAAAWWWW!" and see a man swoop down out of the sky while spraying the ground near us with an M4. Scared to death, we ran as fast as we could to the nearest building, but it was too late. He came in for another dive bomb, and this time carried off my friend while screaming like a possessed hawk. The last thing I heard from my friend was, "I'M TO YOOOUUUNNNNGGGGG." as his voice faded over the distance the Hawk Man was taking him. I sat there for 5 minutes, completely speech less about what just happened. The Hawk Man never came back, and I was eventually killed by a Mosin from the hills. wtf just happened. Has a new level of hacks come to Dayz? Im scared.

So I logged onto a server the other day only to wait for 5 minutes for the "Please Wait..." to disappear. It never did, so I hopped to another server. I got in, but spawned as a freshspawn. I then went to another server and got the "Please Wait..." again, so i hopped onto another one. Finally, my character was back. I have these problems a lot. to the point where I have to join 5 different servers to keep playing, and each server is Public and Regular.
