yeah, assault rifle, battle rifle... (7.62 mean nothing alone, AKM is an assault rifle, it still shoot 7.62 (7.62x39). 1-1 , new game, lets start a clip/magazine fight now :P) i know that the MK-17 make as mutch sense as the steyr AUG, i've got no valid points, it's more a feeling thing. it's like the Kriss vector, it could be added to the game, i would feel the same about it. modern weapon design does not mix well with chernarus vibe IMO, but that's an highly non-objective statement ;)

solid shots !

Hum, FN SCAR-H ? i don't know... i love that weapon, probably the greatest 7,62x51 assault rifle ever made if you believe critics and youtube video. very light, powerfull, low recoil for a .308, accurate, reliable, ultra easy to clean, can take a shitload of attachements... we do not have select fire .308 currently, the weapon has a unique look... why not ? no real reason to be in chernarus, so as many other weapons already ingame... total balance breaker in weaponry, but dayz does not need balance in weapons... . i would not mind seeing it spawn sometimes at heli crashes, mags even more rare. FN FAL mags could be modified using the upcoming workshops to fit in the FN SCAR. but lets not include weapons like that when dupping is still a big issue, i'm already concerned with SVD/UMP45/VSS for 0.57 stable :o i can't help, i still think this kind of weapons belong more to Arma than Dayz.

same here, increadibly stupid players :o . there was a squad and opportunist players trying to loot them (at least the last 2 players). there was no 1 vs 6 situation, the only player that could have responded to your shots tried to combat log (well deserved death !). this is multiple 1 vs 0 and a 1 vs 1 ending with a combat log. at least two players were inconscious and finished by AK rounds at 1.45

we currently have the plate carrier vest : small caliber protection (not yet implemented), attachables holster and storage for a 8 + 1 gun slot

i'll first start to say that i'm aware that slings are often requested and i'm confident they'll be introduced before 1.0 . here i propose interestings (i think) mechanics that can be tied to the sling shot and be used too with an old fashioned musket/handcanon. slingshot : of course, professional sling shots should be more durable, powerfull and accurate. now for projectiles : 2nde option : hand cannon : this could make a great addition to the game. i think leap pipe could be melted pretty easily and produce lead projectiles with a mold, but it ight be a little but too mutch to ad mold in DayZ. fell free to give me feedback and suggestions.

looking at your gear, i would say "living" more than surviving. if you like it, try some exp while the CLE is at it's early state, the best is after 1 week after a loot wipe. you'll have to fish to actually survive. all you need from loot is a shovel to dig out worms, then you can make a stone knife, cut a ashwood stick, kill an animal with it, use its guts to make a fishing rod, its bones to make an improvised hook with your stone knife and here you go ! use your stone knife to cut out bark, combine it with wooden sticks to make and handrill, use paper and wodden sticks to make a fireplace. cook your fishes with another long stick, enjoing your full belly and survival in dayz ;)

from a purely selfish point of view, i would like 3PP removed so 1PP servers could be full again, not just 4-5 private servers. i'm OK with 3PP though, i just don't like the things like camping on top of hospital or fire station in electro using 3PP to scout the surroundings and take shots when its safe... not an interesting gameplay IMO

Hi ! i speed red it, and first thing i want to say : yes project zomboid handle zombie, character management and survival like no other game on this planet. i've spend roughly 100 hours on this game and spawning in the center of westpoint is BRUTAL. if you're a beginner, you'll die in your first day. i was amazed that after having a 3 month old character hurted by a zombie (one second of inattention), i followed my character physical and psychical degradation like if it was one old friend dying. it was a lonely, frightening, painfull and slow death. BUT, when you have understood how the game works, own a fortified house/fort with a garden full of potatoes, there is no need to play the game anymore and no way you can die in the following months (heard they are working on it, i'll make another session soon). one of the major strenght of PZ is it's sloppy old school graphics, allowing LARGE amount of zombie in small area. that is something that seems to me totally infesible with dayZ graphics. the game already struggle to handle 700 zombies on the whole map, there is no way you can put 3000 zombies in a citie like chernogorsk and have a decent framerate. DayZ graphics, players interactions, FPS features, clothes/object combined with PZ zombies, constructions, skills, medical system, elements/food aging, seasons, cooking/fishing/trapping, boredom/stress/fatigue would be the ABSOLUTE survival horror game, no doubt about it. but let's face it, with current technologies, it's just not possible yet. lets wait another 5-10 years and it might be possible :)

both types of suggestions exist in the forum and the game devs seems to take no side (for our pleasure !) : both survival mechanics and new weapons are considered and added almost every stable update. look at the 0.57 addition : cooking with a stick, making fire with handrill, barrel to produce fertilizer and dye things AND svd, vss, red 9, winchester 70, izh 18, ump 45. devs work hard to make everyone happy and don't listen to this big mass of "add weapons" syndrome (which affect me a little to be honest, i just proposed to add the SR-3M :D )

keep on getting player a chance to be friendly if you can ;) .

hum : - about 500 000 produced (so there are few of them left, and they are probably very expensive as a collectionner weapon) - use 7,92*33 ammo which are not in game yet and devs stated they don't want to introduce new calibers. moreover, this ammunition slowly died after the WWII, replaced by NATO 7,62*51 cool weapon for sure, but if they have to introduce a german WWII weapon (which they don't IMO), it should be the MP 40 (more than 1 000 000 produced) , using the already in game 9mm. if you like WWII weapons, SVT 40 is a strong candidate to be implemented into DayZ

you dragged it one millimeter to far :D . almost got those noobs !

like the others : - i don't like poll with yes or yes answer - press are highly visible for a reason - if you're concerned by the visible aspect of press vests, wear UK vest, plenty of camo patern ;) - if they add another press vest color, fluo orange/yellow makes most sense i would not be botherred by an armoured version of the press vest, journalist sometime wear them in conflict area.

bad luck to you then, when i'm looking for PVP on full server at the NWAF i never encounter players :(

let me guess, low pop server ? NWAF and veresnik base are WAY more dangerous in this condition :D

well, when you are kicked after killing a badmin, letting him reloot his dead body right after, it's hard to chill. same goes for pussies squad that lock their server to farm AKM/PSO or M4, store their gear in a tent in the middle of elektro on their locked server and then go on open public server to smash freshies, exit the server when they die, gear up at their tent on their server and then go back fully geared 5 minutes later on a public server. i call that pay to win too... those things are killing the game

hum, consider that the witcher budget add one 0 to the equation, thats also important IMO

this ! with this (shitty) generation of cam everywhere (and cellphones), we have multiple exemples of peoples being shot multiple times and running like rabbits afterward. this guy got shot 4 times (with 9mm probably) at 1-2m distance and is still able to run away (report says he died soon after in hospital even if he runned like he was not even wounded) http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2qu589_un-policier-en-civil-se-defend-face-a-un-carjacking_news#from=embediframe this also remind me of the incident involving 2 bank robbers and police agent in the US, making them consider other calibers than 9mm. the robbers were shot multiple time (more than 5 times each and kept on firing at the police officers). game is fine for me now, and with long term injuries, it will get even better. edit : the incident taking part in the US is known as the 1986 FBI Miami shootout. first robber killed after 6 shots and the second after 12 (9mm and .38 special)

i think i've got a better idea : 9A-91 is indeed very cool as a powerfull SMG, but think of this : SR 3 Vikhr ! this small rifle feature : - SMG format, fit in a backpack with rougthly the same size as the AK 74U - uses the subsonic and powerfull 9x39mm rounds freshly introduced for the VSS vintorez - borrow the same mag as the VSS vintorez and AS VAL (10-20-30 rounds mags), thus no new item/artwork needed - has a unique look (an IMO very sexy) with an unique and easily recognizable handguard (keep it folded so no new weapon hold animation is needed) - has mount for russian optics (yes i'm thinking about PSO 1-1) - can take a big ass supressor, making introduction of the AS VAL useless, make it rare so the weapon is not OP (with russian crash only spawned features, this weapon will be had to find, hard to kit and hard to maintain) totaly fit in the sovietic atmosphere of chernarus, could be a great addition to russian crash spawns. i could be the ultimate unicorn rifle in the game (it would be mine for sure). a few pictures : folded fully kitted (unfolded + supressor + large magazine + optic) What do you think about it ?

no more Z and persistence for 0.57, but we can enjoy those amazing gain in player interactions with the world, WAY less desyncr, a lot of new weapons, new clothes and HUGE map improvement (look at the new berezino). i'll enjoy it and maybe spend more time into PVP before zombies/persistence return. keep updates going, and let brian and eugen get some well deserved sleep ;). days are going warmer and warmer, take some vacations guys

nice shots !

on 0.57 : SVD and VSS, both one shot killers in center mass, semi auto 10 rounds mag. they are obviously very hard to find. on full auto side, AK familly is quite good, they all take the kashtan scope and PSO-1 and 1-1 in 0.57 (all but the AK74u), making them effective at 500m. AKM with PSO and drum mag is a beast in every scenario ! M4 is good, but only when it's fully kitted AND for electro/berezino mayhem style fights only. you need magpull parts, at least the stock to be effective at range, red dots are great on 0-400m, ACOG a little further, CQB is amazing in short distances. but lets face it, chances to kite your m4 on 0.57 are very thin. 12 gauge weapons pretty much assassinate an m4 at short distances and weapons using .308 destroy m4 by their stopping power at medium and long range. i really like the blaze 95 on 0.57 : very accurate, can take the hunter scope (basically the new LRS), you can fire quickly two shots, each of them capable of dropping a player instantly, sights are amazing... my go to combo on 0.57 : winchester/blaze 95 + sawed-off/FNX .45

but remember, evey bambi stalking people while playing music in electro will be broken legged, bandaged and left crawling on the ground !

my guess is that they found some issues related to persistence, and they will work on it while 0.57 hit stable. same for zombies. they are not stepping back, data collected with 0.56 and 0.55 stable will be used to rework CLE. i prefer that they turn off features that does not work and generate gamebreaking bugs such as 0.55 infected and persistence. i'll try to find unicorn weapons when 0.57 hit stable, not sure i will find VSS or UMP as easily in 0.58 and further updates.
