Chernarus is based on the Czech republic. Meant to be a non land locked version. The Czech republic uses M4s, M60s, MP5s, etc. in their military. Just because a country was once under soviet rule, doesn't mean they still have to use Warsaw pact weapons.

I threw out 4 1911 mags, 2 FNX mags and 2 Amphibia mags after 1 run of NWAF and the Vybor mil base. Decided carrying them was pointless since I already had an M4, Mosin, Magnum and CR75 with plenty of mags/rounds. I don't get why people complain so much, they spawn in nearly all military spec buildings. Fire stations and barracks being the most common.

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
The_Monk replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
Killing them with an axe is easy, Swing as they run at you or circle them swinging. If you are carrying two rifles, you drop one of them on the ground to pull your axe out, making you slightly hesitant to do so. Hesitant = dead. -
Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
The_Monk replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
I discovered that at full tilt, these new and improved zombies can run you down and hit you if you're sprinting away from them holding a gun out. No more carrying 2 rifles for me. -
Salvaging car batteries for simple welding (crafting/fortifying)
The_Monk replied to Thirdthorpe's topic in Suggestions
I imagine something along these lines will be required when it comes to vehicle repair. I'm also keen for other battery powered objects like angle grinders and reciprocating saws. For both repairs and hilarious combat scenarios. -
The 2 level camo net bunkers and the small green tin barracks do as well. None of the tents seem to be spawning.
-
I find too many pistol mags, I end up throwing them away.

KoS in relation to the new spawn mechanism of Zombies: Good or Bad?
The_Monk replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
Sawn off and a crossbow. Buckshot for players, bow for zombies. Light weight, prolific ammo, continue as before. -

I admit I have screamed CAW at people and chased them as a fresh spawn. -

Ghetto arc welder. This needs to be a thing. -
Check available exits when entering a room. Helicopters flying over brings thoughts of needing cover.

Out of the loop, would love to be caught up.

Yeah then if you switch back to default filter they pop up as normal. -
A Little PSA About The LRS And SKS...
The_Monk replied to leefriendfield's topic in General Discussion
Also discovered this, and it nomnomnommed the PU that was on it. -

They are up right now, to find them turn battleye off in the filter. -
It is late and my bedroom is full of spiders (Australia! Fuck yeah!) so sleep isn't happening. So I was thinking of a few additions that would add a little something/provide different amounts of storage. First thought was a series of bandoliers that hold various types of items. Pouches for generic items: Magazine specific Loose rounds/grenades etc Removes the focus somewhat on always just having an assault vest in the vest slot. Could be variants with knife sheaths and such when hunting becomes more of a focus. The next was a new slot all together, belts. Either set belts or you find a belt that takes a certain number of attachments that you find separately. Holsters/pouches/sheaths etc. Tool belt for holding the bits and bobs for doing your wizardry Police style utility belt with a pistol holster Small storage in the head slot. Military mesh/straps etc for holding small objects Shits and giggles items like beer helmets Concealed carry holsters and such that can be worn underneath jackets/clothing. Some customisation that my tired brain can think of, cutting down and ruining perfectly good weapons for the sake of concealment/carrying in pack. Such as bolt actions: Pump actions Breach loaders (Yes I know we can chop the double barrel but the Blaze 95 would be a vicious shorty) Lever actions All of these would be much less effective than their full length counterparts, but with the large amount of ammo types, a short anything with a different round to your primary weapon could be a godsend in a pinch. Painting is something that needs to be used not just for camo. Some people like to make a statement, or are friendly/psychotic and don't want camo on their gear. Tiger stripes Medic crosses etc so people don't automatically murder anything in a ballistic helmet. I feel that is enough of a photo assault for now.

I generally only "No questions asked" fire if they already have a weapon out or if I am in high risk area like an airfield. Even at airfields I let a lot of people live. I used to kill everything that moved, I still occasionally relapse, especially if surprised. Talking to people prior to feeding them buckshot makes the game much more interesting however. Also, if you play hardcore there seems to be less coast fresh spawns trying to punch you for your beans.
-
At the moment, you see some fellow in all army gear and assume automatically he wants to shoot your face off, eat all your beans, then laugh at your corpse. Things like this would make it easier, and allow bandits to trick people in new and exciting ways. I was also considering a "Neck" slot that is essentially like the face slot. A whole bunch of objects that are just for customising your character. Scarves, ties, bling jewelery, necklace of ears. That kind of thing.

Also this

Another angle from a friend of mine.
-
He had some kind of... axeident... He asked me to kill him, he had a broken leg. His downright refusal to die was just rude. Dayz does some odd things occasionally.
-
Don't know if the ol triumph stag fits in with Chernarus but damned if I wouldn't drive that thing till it overheated and broke down, leaving me stranded in a cloud of steam and zombies.
-
Mixed and matched my gear a little after finding a biker jacket. Thinking it would make me less military/bambi hunter in appearance. I feel I failed miserably, the first person I met shit themselves and screamed at me not to kill them.
-
Found the Rider Jacket. Holds 4 but in a horizontal line so that the sawn off fits. This makes me happy in my pants.
