    Damage reduction?

    yep, when coupled with the zed's erratic behavior it makes things challenging. it wouldn't be so bad if you could shoot them from a distance, but they tend to zig-zag around a lot. then when they get near you, it's like you're just taking damage, whether or not they're 'hitting' you anyway there's been a few threads on this. one started by me. I don't think it was intended. especially since it started with the Arma patch, so I imagine it might effect all Arma 2 players, and not just DayZ

    I don't think it was intended. but no official word yet...
  6. I was wondering about this a lot of yall get too far ahead of yourself. we don't even know if this was intended, so all talk about what a .45 can do in real life is besides the point. I don't think it was intended because it's a pretty drastic change. I'm not talking about the effects it may have on DayZ gameplay, just the fact the amount of damage is 1/3-1/4 what it used to be

    Arma update nerfed revolver?

    just replace your arma2ao.exe file with one of the recent beta's but I think we should worry about moving forward and resolving the issue
  8. the nvg's are mine. I was drunk one night and left them in that truck
  9. no, the makarov is even more worser
  10. you're actually required by law to buy it. and it will cost $500 next time read carefully before agreeing to the Terms of Service
  11. it seems like it takes long at first. but once you learn the routes, and where to stop on the way, it's not bad at all. make the whole trip into an activity: stay in the trees/cover. constantly look around for other players. constantly look around for crashed helicopters. carefully scope out an area before entering. I think doing all that makes the trip more interesting and helps time pass. not to mention maybe you'll stay alive and become a better player (no offense, we all can improve). just holding down W and saying "OMG this takes forever" makes it boring and seem like a chore

    Arma update nerfed revolver?

    I think it is a bug or something unintended. going from 1 shot to 3-4 shots is pretty drastic. that's not a slight tweaking of the damage

    Arma update nerfed revolver?

    first I got the update from Six, but never played that. later Steam updated. then I played, and noticed the issues the arma2ao.exe in my main folder and expansion/beta folder both claim to be 1.62.95.248. they're both also exactly 12,849 kb another difference I notice was on the main menu screen. when I launch with Six, it shows both the Arma 2 and Arma 2 OA logos, just like when I launch 'Combined Operations' through Steam. before the update, when I launched with Six, it would only show me the Arma 2 OA logo the other addition was the new video options: PPAA, and AtoC. do people without the Steam update have those?

    I assume it means get all the way to the "setup complete" message but does it really take you 3-5 servers every time you want to play? every once and awhile I get a laggy server, but it's not that often. if it's an issue with night servers, they're easy to avoid by looking at how many people are playing. and of course check the ping before joining. what exactly is the issue that's causing you to have to join 3-5 servers every time you want to play?

    Arma update nerfed revolver?

    wow the makarov is weak now. it's pretty much useless if you don't get a head shot
  16. you actually see a lot of that watching peoples videos. it seems clear a lot of people are server-hopping and/or duping it funny because a lot of those videos are put up to point out hackers or whatever, and meanwhile their whole squad has all the best gear
  17. I haven't found a toolbox for a long time never found NVG's, any light machine gun, As50, SVD, or L85 never seen a bear trap found antibiotics once on a player. m107 in a tent
  18. well the barracks have unique loot that's not at deer stands. crashed heli's as well. but yeah, you can find plenty of decent loot at deer-stands

    Arma update nerfed revolver?

    so I guess you haven't patched yet? do you play the game through Steam and/or Six Launcher?
  23. that's the thing. one of the reasons it's hard to find rare loot is because the server-hoppers take it all. you make the trip from Kamenka to NWA only to find nothing because some dick spent his whole day going to NWA on different servers. it just makes rare loot even more rare for legit players
