Sure compared to many games the development speed may be quick however comparing to many games most of them didn't make 1/20th of the money that DayZ has made in Alpha. Don't take it wrong though, I'm not saying they are bad developers, in fact they are extremely good for already doing something that Arma 2 and Arma 3 couldn't (coding well enough for the game not too be as unoptimized as arma 2 and arma 3 are). I'm just saying that they could definitely speed things up , adding the features itself is not the hardest part , the hardest part would be testing everything and making sure it has no bugs which is why I understand that it takes so long for them to push the new updates , however all or at least 90% of the bugs have been reported already and have had more than enough time to fix everything (IF they have a regular work schedule like most working people do). The features don't take that long to add UNLESS its really complex things such as something that completely defies the engine its being coded in , but then again they ain't planning to add something that game breaking yet so I don't understand what the delay is about. PS: I have experience as a game developer and know several languages (Pascal , PHP , JavaScript, C# and have been in some game projects. Not as big as this one obviously but adding the features were never a really big problem).

couldn't agree more.

I get entertainment because I know he failed while I suceeded , if I let him know I'm there he will just turn around and shoot , why bother having the chances to die if I can just kill him and be safe?

Lmao would be so awesome to troll people if my mic picked up everything XD Wish there was a way without me having to buy cables and stuff

Don't miss my post its probably the best reason why sniping aint op

DUDE TURN AROUND HE SEES YOU

Please. I'm most likely older than the average age of the community and probably older than you.

no :(

The number 16 started 2 days ago ;)

I'm pretty sure there's safer ways to report a bug without telling the thousands of people who visit the forum so they can use and abuse it

^^ and until they fix the scope

Ops double post

Having 250 hours in DayZ I've figured that in a squad , the sniper is the most vulnerable player. The sniper sure , he is hiding and can kill from far, however the mosin does A LOT of noise , it's easy to pinpoint where someones at after they shot , specially if they change positions every time they shoot, if you are nearby you see him when he gets up to change position. I have about 40 hours of actual fire fights between my squad and enemy squads and I've figured that most sniper spots are WELL-KNOWN which makes it extremely hard for you to snipe anyone without getting killed on high pop servers, either because you go to a "bad" spot where its hard to find but also got little to no vision or go to a known sniping spot where you have vision and risk getting flanked and killed and as such have your squad die on you if the enemy has a sniper that wasn't killed. Sure snipers can be op against newer players but against veterans, thats not the case, at least from my experience.

I will teach you how to do it. 1- Look for a 39/40 server and join. 2- Keep respawning until you spawn near kamyshovo/elektro. 3- Run on the woods until you hear shots. 4- Head to the shots until you find him. 5- Run up to him while hes busy and punch him 2x in the head , insta KO. 6- ??? 7- Profit. Punches are op in this game, regardless of your helmet (even ballistic) our characters punch harder than an Boxer veteran that has won a shitload of titles and will always knock him out if you punch a bit above their heads.

I'm not a bambi bandit I only kill people who are armed.

is there any special trick or something? because when I try to ko my friends new spawn It takes me 3-4 hits on the head

It does. Humans have something called reflexes which not only allows you to dodge punches as it makes it extremely hard to hit a good area of your head when you're in a middle of a fight so get your facts straight before coming with your bullshit into this thread. Not to mention I didn't expect to take a million punches before getting unconscious , I just didn't expect to take 2 or 3 and get unconscious.

It knocks you out even with ballistic helmet pristine.

all experimental servers got 40+ players ofc they are looted..

best loot run to get fully geared with a mosin with LRS?

I use mosin for everything, close range and long range. I've killed 3 people in close range (20m away ) with mosin and they knew my position. It's all about having a good aim , if you do then Mosin is the best as 90% of the times its a 1 hit kill. PS: I was using LRS on the mosin at 20m away.

Wanted to see if Epoch would ever come to life in DayZ SA. Love the mod sooooo much in Arma 2
