    AK74 and AKS74u Magazines

    Why are these magazines not interchangeable? In reality the only difference between the 2 is one is an SBR and the other is a full length rifle. Ammo, upper, lower, bolt, bolt carrier.... they're all the same! Makes 0 sense to make 2 different magazines for a shorter barreled version of the AK74.......

    AK74 and AKS74u Magazines

    My bad, I tried to add the mag to the gun when the single round was chambered. Apparently you can't add a magazine to a gun when there is a round already chambered. Bad news is I tossed that magazine thinking it was no good. Good news is a found another, unchambered the single bullet and then was able to add the magazine.

    AK74 and AKS74u Magazines

    It was definitely an ak74 mag as it had the 5.45mmx39mm ammo. I tried attaching it directly to my AKS74U (both pristine) and I also tried to hold the aks74u in my hands and reload it. Nadda

    SKS or AKM?

    Erm... they both use the same ammo mate. Honestly, I like the SKS better. The PU scope is better than the PSO scope as you get a better view of the surroundings with it. The PSO scope blacks out your view on the sides and makes tracking more difficult. Also, the AKM can waste ammo if you don't control your bursts appropriately. The real question is more about your playstyle. The AKM is by far better than the SKS at CQB. So if you tend to go into more populated cities (Berezino, Electro, Chernarus, Novo..) Then I would say the AKM is better. But if you are more of a solo style player and stick to the outskirts of high traffic areas then I would say go with the AKM and PU scope.

    I'm old and I suck at it so I play on empty servers.

    I try to avoid the really full servers as they are magnets to hackers. But servers with 15-20 people on them seem to be a sweet spot for interactivity with other players and less of a chance to run into a hacker. Once you get more time in the game you'll start warming up to the idea of fuller servers as the game really doesn't begin until you start interacting with other people. I tend to run solo 99% of the time so you get used to it and play a different style than you would if you were in a group. I prefer that style more than group play. There's definitely a large learning curve for the game in order to survive in different play styles, but once you are more comfortable with the game you'll start looking for interactivity with other players.

    Uh, There Were A LOT Of Zombies Last Night

    I found that on bugged servers that have tons of loot that the zombies seem to spawn in very quickly.

    Monster loot and server hoppers!

    Those servers are so laggy. I avoid them like the plague as the desync is rediculous.

    How To Find Secret Military Base w/ Map | DayZ Standalone Tips

    I love camping this base. SOOOOO MANY server hoppers just spawn in, loot and spawn out from here. I make certain they don't spawn out anymore >:(

    How zombies will change the game

    I am all for more zombies,even hordes of them. First, they need to fix their AI though as they currently agro on you from insane distances, through buildings, floors, walls etc... As long as I can still sneak through a city as I usually do, and not pull agro from a zombie 2 streets over from me then I'm fine for putting hordes of Zombies in.

    The most impressive close range sniping ever

    Everytime I watch video's like this and see how terrible people are makes me wish I had the time to put into doing Twitch.

    Vests and ballistic protection

    I think they should definitely add vests with protective plates in them as they are fairly common and standard issue for the military.... Something along the lines of a press vest capacity but offer ballistic protection. You can even go as far as making police barracks spawn kevlar (small calibre protection, i.e. 9mm, .45, .22, .380 auto etc..) and military barracks spawn Tactical vests with Type 4 armor plating in them (can protect against rifles as well as pistol).

    Lockpick needs a buff

    It serves its purpose of alerting you of anyone entering the building you just came in and locked behind you.

    Helicopter crash sites?

    Usually when I find a crash site I'll set up a sniper nest somewhere near by waiting for people like you ;)

    Mosin Rangefinding

    The range finder makes sniping easy. I'm consistently getting hits at 5-6 and even 700 meters out with the Mosin. NWAF has been a field day for me since the range finder came out.

    0.51 Magazine Rarity

    Good rule of thumb. Find the magazine first, then you can find the gun. Otherwise, go with weapons that do not require magazines. I've been searching for 3 days now for a 1911 magazine to go with my mosin setup. Killed over 12 people and searched their equipment too at NWAF, not a single magazine.

    Why did you remove the bipod for Mosin?

    Yes, but they also make bipod that mount on using the front sling lug.

    Which map do you use?

    I only use DayzDB for range calculations. Has been pretty accurate as I have consistently hit targets at 600+ meters.

    Ghosts First Execution

    What I find rediculous about the whole thing as you tagged "Mr Moon" in your topic. 1.) Mr Moon is FAR more constructive and creative with his executions. 2.) You lack the ingenuity and basic brain power to ever hope to be like him. 3.) Mr Moon is entertaining, you are not. If you want to kill bambies, that's fine. But at least be CREATIVE. Don't be like the million other douche bag bandits out there who don't even provide a lick of creativity to their dastardly deeds.

    Weapons w/ Magazines

    Why are weapons never spawned in with magazines already in them. It's like everyone who left a weapon behind decided to take the magazines with them for some unknown reason. If weapons were to spawn with magazines already in them then I can see weapons like the pistol/Sporter 22/CZ527 being used much more often than you see now. Most people (myself included) don't even bother picking up the sporter 22/cz527 b/c the odds of you finding a magazine for it before you find a Blaze/Mosin/SKS are abysmally small. So, devs, how about you make some of these weapons spawn with magazines already in them (you don't even need to have them spawn with FULL magazines, just A magainze).

    And yet again...I log out in disappointment.

    All your disapointment is b/c of karma. It all serves you right for server hopping :)
