Nice story most of us have all died of gunfights and won. My best one was in the jail in turovo(no longer in .50 R.I.P). Was just taking a trip to nova and a I passed down here to check this place out and went inside this guy tries to shoot me with an SKS and misses and I get my magnum and shoot all shots 2 hit. Finally at the corner of the room I get my mosin and shoot. I win

Well I started of as a freshpawn in cherno .50 exp #5. Got some gear a mosin w ammo and some new gear. I needed some better stuff so I head to balpta and on the first jail I here gun shots. I just keep zigzagging and zigzagging and nothing hits me. A team of about 6 people miss all of there shots. Eventually they just left me alone. I found very little stuff in the jails and at tower and hangers until the last jail when I crashed. I had a good short run will continue soon.

Ha cool story. Good job in finding SKS ammo usually its imposible to find anywhere except military.

Server hopping is a good way to get loot. But beware if someone sees you when spawning, most likely you'll get killed. Its unfare to server hop especially to the newbies. If your desperate to get new loot from a recent stable update then that's a good option but still, its better to earn it the hard way.

Ha a pig time to get some porckchop. But I swear I saw a pig in bernzino in the first exp update of .50. Might have been my imagination or a cow.

When I heard exp update .50 #5 came out I gave it a little try. I was in first person(all the 3rd person server were full). I was succecfully able to find a mosin and and leather sewing kit and brass knuckes. When I was in cherno I decided to go to balota. When I got there a couple of terribly aimed bandits tryed to shoot me but wasted all there ammo. In the last prison my game crashed so I got of. When on my short journey I've noticed a lot of food a reasonable amount of gear and weapons. Not alot of bugs (except crash) so far. If you guys keep starving there's a first person server waiting. (Its your only hope sometimes). But I've wonder have any of you found the new guns. Right now all I've seen is youtubers weild the bran new weapons. Wondering if any of you guys can share some places were you found your new guns and other stuff. We all want the new stuff.

Im an average player to but I can easily find my way. You almost always spawn near the coast(the exception of nova). One way of finding your way is through signs, another way is looking at the railroads and roads(if the road is closer to the shore your on the east side of the map, if its the opposite your on the west. You can use clouds and stars as well but that's usually hard. Also when your on the dayz start up page that shows your character and it says user tap the name earase it and change it. BTW I would like to go on a journey with you and teach. Steam name Nick233889 if its not right I'll edit this comment soon and change it to a correct one. I'll be a bandit survivor hero either of them is fine. If any of you other guys would like to go on a journey add me on steam.

McKean if you have trouble with zombies let me tell you some tips to do. These latest patches (especially exp .50) have allowed you to hit a zombie Much eaiser. If you find a weapon or tool that can kill I prefer to take farming hoe, any Axe, pickaxe,pipe wrench, cattle prod w battery, stun baton w battery, and shovel. The rest are usually inacurate(.50 you can use any thing and it most likly will hit). When using fists to kill zombies use first person. First person makes life easier when fist fighting(unless your a master dayz 3rd person fist fighter that can hit heads easy).when running away from zombies have nothing in your hands and sprint and zigzagg it helps when in a city or random field. That's all I can think of for now.

Nice hope they try this.

Agreed

Well let's put it this way. Its 1995-2020 in all of our comments seen. BTW this is DAYZ not ARMA 2. Dayz is based of the same map as arma doesn't mean the same period and stuff. Thats why dayz is "this is your story" not arma. This is my guess from the comments we've read(it seems many of us have not knowledge of ww2 but we weren't alive 60-90 years ago so that makes sense). We will never know for sure until post something about it.

Might be but it looks exactly like a welrod. Look up welrod pistol you'll see.

Guys I've seen some comments about not finding loot. If you want the new loot from exp branch then just enter a shed. I've found sledge hammers hacksaws wires hard hats and much more. I spawned near a shed and got a splitting axe.its as easy as pie(maybe easier). Another place to search vehicles and trains. I found a reapeter in one of the train cars and a 1911 in a car trunk. Loot now spawns in cars again so take advantage of it.

Uh, what? It happens after ARMA II, AKA 2009-2012. So, pretty recently. What do you mean by "classic cars and weapons and other old stuff"? The only "old" weapons are the 91/30 Mosin Nagant and the IZH-42 shotgun. The cars are all post-Soviet POS, and none of the other weapons are really that old.[/quoute Those are the only classic weapons wtf. AKM is from 1950s, SKS is from ww2,1911 is probably 1911, p1 is most likely based on the wather p38 another ww2 gun, amphibia is based on welrod another ww2 gun, the rest are from 1960 and over. Half of the guns in dayz are from around ww2. Research b4 posting. BTW ww2 is from the 1930s to 1945 I think. All the guns I listed are pretty much are about 60 years of age and over that's pretty OLD. The 2009-2012 makes sence though and most cars.

When playing dayz, I always saw classic cars classic weapons and other old stuff. This let me to wonder what time period the apocolypse is in. My guess 1982-1999. Now I posted this as a GENERAL DISCUSION its not an idea or suggestion just a little thing I would like to ask.... What do YOU think

Yes I freeze to death many times when its raining but, our asses are saved by the most important thing in .50 exp update 4...... The HEATPACK. Its back and saves me and other people with hypothermia. If you have problems with cold exp branches heat pack will save the day

Theres all ready that (well in .50 exp). I was a fresh spawn in nova and I popped open a trunk of a car and bam, 1911. If a secret weapon would spawn in a car it should be a military like vehicle.

7.62 rounds would be a good addition to the game as well as the guns. The one I would love to see is the PSSH-41. The devs have kind of been only focused on assault rifles regular rifles these past few updates(the exception of the bakial m133 finally other shotgun). It seems that smgs have been left out. Smgs came before assault rifles and smgs are still widely used by police military and riot control. The PSSH would be a good start again.

Tear gas seems good as well as the other one mentioned. Tear gas should be in police stations like the sumbachine gun.

Barret is ok but its an anti material rifle making extremely powerful. I do t think it should be added until a new map is added like in arma 3 epoch mod. For right now an anti tank rifle like the boys or PTRD would be a bit better since Russians actually used them.

Like the vehicles idea but have all of you noticed that all the vehicles in dayz standalone are wrecked up and broken. They should have the pristine and badly damaged way of grouping. And the vehicle spawns should be random like helicopter crash sites.

M1 carbine is a good idea to balance the SKS and mosin but the m1 garand would be nice to

Golden AKM shouldn't be added(I doubt there's one in the state). But instead it should be crafting by applying something like golden spray paint.

Now that is just pure realizm nice suggestion.

I have had the same struggles with weapons not hitting there targets for a while now. Mostly the crowbar baseball bat pitchfork and a couple more. If you try the .50 exp update youll we some differences. Crowbars can hit zombies as well as other nonzombie hittable weapons. The ping of a server sometimes affects it but not much. Just hope they will fix this one day
