I think the point the OP was making. Was that "It'll hurt lone wolves, Lone wolves should not be at a disadvantage to groups" type of thing should not be a reason to not include things like the features he mentioned. The features can be implemented, lone wolves will be a viable play style, but groups can and potentially will have an easier time. Being able to take advantage of more features to become more effective as a whole. Which I totally agree with.

I am not sure if you can refill the Jerrycan from a service station, but you can top it up to 100% from other cans found lying around.

Am I missing something? I've always been able to raise-lower my pistol when using the space bar....

I'm all for adding a second clothing layer for things like Down Jackets and other bulky clothing. Fitting over regular shirts and closer fitting clothing.

what is the best weapon attachments for weapons, butt stocks and hand guards.
ColdAvoral replied to claws4life's topic in General Discussion
In terms of dispersion. Plastic is better than Wood, Wood is better than Folding. I'm not sure how well the handguard rail performs. But you can then mount a bipod, so when prone. You then have the advantage of the bipod's assistance That goes for AK's. As for M4's, I understand that the Magpul Handguard an buttstock are the best. But again, you can get the RIS handguard with rails that lets you mount the bipod. I'm not sure how big the difference there is between the high end furniature and using a bipod whilst prone. I would assume that the bipod whilst prone would win out. But only whilst prone. I'm just miffed that the MP5K no longer spawns with it's buttstock anymore. EDIT: Also, I believe that the condition and presence of scopes also makes a difference in your weapon's dispersion. Which I think is utter BS. But then again, I'd like attachments to only affect sway(ie, more sway when not prone whilst using a bipod deployed or even attached.)/recoil (in the case of better condition stocks or such) and keep dispersion constant for the weapon. Making folding stocks or the absence of a stock allowing you to stow the AK in your bag, but, I can only hope. -
You'll notice that the doors inside the barracks inside are varied. Sometimes all of them are shut, sometimes some of them are open, sometimes even all shut. And I hate to burst your bubble, but I have been to Zelenogorsk military base and found one barracks door open and flashbangs and high capacity vests inside. Which I'm certain would not have been left behind. They are very much random in my experience.

Most of this has been suggested before. I really like the idea of the glass/sound traps though. I'd even be fore just having regular broken glass that we find all over the map make the same noise too. And pliers will obviously get some use as a means to disarm traps like that. (since they pliers have side cutters on them too.)

100% behind this. Even if it, like the down jacket can not have a vest on over it.

I've been out shooting rabbits with a .22LR pump action with and without optics. Its also what I learned to shoot with. My dad had me hitting milo cans at 100 metres after a couple of days with open sights. Further with a scope. That was from a prone supported position however. Beyond about 130-140 it tends to drop like a lead brick though. Entry level weapons like the Makarov and the .22 Sporter should have an abundance of ammo, that makes it up for them being rather underpowered.

I've used the sporter a couple of times since 0.49 because the mags seem much more common. I got a spawn up near Novo and promptly found one and a ten round clip in a piano house. After making my way through Novo's streets and finding a 30 round clip in the police station. When I made my way along the northern highway to meet up with friends. Spotting a guy making his way through the trees on the edge of the roadside with a blue mountain pack, he hadn't seen me and I managed to break the guy's leg with a few shots. Ran up to him and socked him in the head with a fist to make him unconscious. Snatched his backpack with his pistol inside and then bandaged him up and gave him an Epi-pen (I'd had a stroke of luck, finding 3 in novo hospital.) its not a great gun, but not all weapons have to be. It has it's place as a starter weapon, and right now the mags seem common as hell.

I suggest looking at some of the filming from Dean answering Q&A at PAC or whatever its called. It will answer most of your question I think.

TBH I couldn't see the muzzle flash in the trees. but atm on my phone I can't view it frame by frame.

to be fair, those bodies are a placeable that appear everywhere. One is beside the ruined buss in the swampy area along the coast not far from Elektro from the Berenzino side. it was just moved, I'm sure we'll see even more change soon. The socker field up north was there for AGES before the new town was fleshed out. I used to walk by and just wonder why the hell a soccer field was in the middle of nowhere.

I think you may not have even been shot from your front arc. There was allot of cover for him to your right and left. And on your right, it looked like it was a slight decline in the hill/topography. So there is a chance he came up there and simply sighted in on you standing there 3rd personing.

This is a great idea, it will slow server switches a little, but that is not a bad thing IMO. Atleast those who aren't combat logging will still be able to quickly abort and deal with the wandering fresh spawns and zeds.
