What do you mean? That all AK's should be 7.62x39 or 5.56x45? WHY? What is so wrong with providing proper 5.45x39 caliber, that would most importantly completely disconnect Warsaw pact weapons from NATO ones? How can you properly tweak NATO weapon usage without hampering AK's, if they are in same caliber? Is it not killing variety, which you seem to love some much, if AK's are only in 7.62 and 5.56? What would be the difference between AKM and member of AK74 family in the same caliber? I do get that you support Devs in almost anything they do, but this just seems unreasonable. And yes, I'm fully aware that we had this discussion over and over again. I just could not resist...

I think it was lootable picture of naked Rocket being stealthily introduced to the loot spawns!

Magnum was being unicorn for me past days, so this bug does not hurt me much. But yes, it needs to be bugtracked and squashed :).

I'm clubbing heart with diamond spade O_o. edit: I like meeting folks as I usualy don't KOS. When I get under fire, I enjoy the fire fight as well. I like to explore the map checking new stuff, I like the journey we make in DayZ, hell I even enjoy sun set in this game and I like hunting animals as well, plus I like sitting around camp fire with my buddy or two cooking some meat. And ofc I like getting new gear to make my character look cool, carry more stuff and just be well equipped for the journey. And I know I will eventualy die and repeat this whole damn process that I love so much :-). <3 DayZ

Ain't that silent hill 2? One of the best creepy games I've ever played.

I do not see that as much of a problem. True, stairs get crowded easily, but to place much emphasis on chair or table size seems pointless to me.

The dude on the right side looks actually bored. Like wtf nothing is happening at all......might actualy represent faces of same Dayz players today :-D.

Not much is finished in SA as of now. I don't think devs will leave xbows useless as they are now. Oh and having animation, when you were pulling bolt out of your body, that would be kewl!

Hear hear, the end is fking extremely nigh !!! edit: On a serious note, personally I welcome a chance to regear again. Can't wait for loot being ballanced, when getting good stuff will be atleast a bit of achievement.

Oh would love that. Maybe then my new R9 290 Tri-X would get a chance to produce proper ammount of FPS.

There was that time, where I was going through my stuff in one of the houses and all of the sudden, two guys with AK's ambushed me. Now what would you have done? Aimed the mosin that I had, only to get riddled by bullets? I surrendered, they took my food, fed me worms and went on their way with all my mosin ammo. Was relatively interesting story to be honest. We talked a bit, they were reasonably polite (did not call me names). I almost felt bad for not telling them good luck when they left.

Would love if you could add some kind of camo to any backpack. Like those burlap sack wraps, or just small branches with leaves, or maybe some grass or so. Or maybe if we could loot bits of camo nets and add those to our beloved backpacks? Now I know, that would present additional work for art team, but hey, that's what they do so why not?

I currently have it myself! :-). Had also 20 slot leather sack from deer skin, but I disliked it because it seemed rather bright to my liking. If it had fur same color as the deer, I might have stick with that though.

I kinda want my game to look atleast a bit nice. Having object details low or very low means some ugly texture pop-ins, I can't see through windows unless i'm very close etc.

Crazy fact is, that you could have been a jerk trying to get closer to make that xbow headshot easier. Hence calling friendly and approaching him. And maybe, just maybe, if you had that xbow on your back, he would not have tried to shoot you. But we will never know and both cases has the same probability and happens all the time. I do get your point though, you were not trying to murder that dude.

I would say, do not "balance" xbow damage based on the reload speed. Xbow do not/should not be uber powerfull because it reloads slow and has low effective range as compared to rifles. On the other hand, Xbow bolt lodged in human torso, would surely mean more than just little unpleasantry. So maybe the Xbow will be good once: 1. we can craft ammo and have quiver 2. cloth jackets stop having ballistic protection 3. we have wound system in game, so limping players, blurry vision that can not be turned off, you know more complex stuff than we have now. Getting shot should not mean player will just laugh while sprinting to cover knowing he will be fit in few minutes after he bandages and stuff his belly full of beans. Also it is fine if weapons in Dayz are not balanced. If weapon is very good, there is no need to make it artificaly bad because of some game ballance. I think that some kind of natural balance would come with rarity. Like finding hunting rifle would give you powerfull and accurate weapon, but most likely bolt action or with limited ammo capacity. Now having FN Scar would also give you powerful and accurate rifle, with 30 rnd mag, but that weapon would be quite rare given the setting being eastern country with some former presence of NATO forces.

Yeah it is very annoying, the broken sounds. But yeh, atleast they have mentioned sound system in .49 patch features! Btw what you mentioned happened to me just few days ago. No gunshot sound, my screen just shaked, lost some color, started zigzagging like a madman, but in the wrong way O_O.

You nailed it bud. Not funny aye? :( Btw if your geared char is often changed for fresh one, when you join a server, that often happens when you are joining servers right after the restart. To my knowledge, it is better to wait once few people get on the server and never join freshly restarted servers with 0/40 players. I lost my toon just 2 days ago like that. My buddy did not experience it when he joined the same server just minute or two later.

I don't know why every gamepad defender uses "twitch" shooters when talking about mouse+keyboard combo. The thing is, M+K is lot more precise, atleast to my experience. I owned Xbox 360 for over 2 years, so I had plenty of time to test it myself. While I liked gamepad for sports, car games, beat em ups etc, I totally dislike that for FPS. Reason? The precision, as I've already mentioned. When I want to make headshot, I do not want to fight with the controller, I want to use it instead. I played Red Dead Redemption, SUPERB game, would love it to be ported to PC, enjoyed every second of it. Still when I remember me playing it, there were lots of moments where I simply fought the gamepad instead of just fighting the enemies. Then again it might be just me right? Maybe some folks are so agile as to achieve similar results with gamepad as with m+k combo. When talking about precision I find it rather hard to argue as well. I believe it was proven beyond shadow of a doubt, that M+K combo provides a lot more precise aiming. So for me m+k is not just about "twitch" shooters, it's about precision and fluid gameplay. Btw if you played a lot on consoles you probably must have noticed, that almost every shooting game, be it 1st or 3rd person one, had some kind of aim assist. Yes, you could turn it off, but it was there and mostly activated on default. To me this is another sign of gamepad being considered as not the best controller for shooters, not that I need any, as I'm fine with just my own experience. But again, I respect that some folks want to play everything on gamepad. If there is no autoaim, that would help them in PC multiplayer games, I have zero problem with that.

I wipe everytime!

Apart from gamepad being less straining for wrists, I would personally not play FPS with it due to low precision as compared to mouse. But hey, you are free to play with whatever controller you fancy, the worst that can happen is, that you will gimp yourself much and become an easy target :-). Btw since they announced console version, maybe they will put controller support back? edit: As Katana67 said, people tend to be less hostile, when you don't start your post with passive aggresive statements.

Got the same GPU stock speed atm as well. Got R9 290 Tri-X GPU, but still, game runs FAR from good. In towns my FPS can go down to 23 or so and I run object detail on normal and I have changed drawing distance to 1800m from 3000m. Oh well, until we have new renderer and other client optimalisations, the game woun't run good.

Improvised all the way, preferably from boar skin for extra 5 slot. On the other hand it is hard to resist hunting backpack more so, when it looks best with Smersh vest upgraded with smersh mini backpack. I can't wait till they add some military backpacks, some with camo, simillar to Czech backpack from Arma 2 or Big Coyote with camo. Or even more civilian ones with various inventory sizes ranging maybe 15-25 slots.

I believe mags will go to civilian spawns at some point and this rifle will get an optics as well.

Heh whoever played the mod knew well enough that DayZ kind of zombies are infected runners. And yes, we need more of them. Would also love if they could drag you down or something, although it could be pain due to desync or such.
