You're right but a lot of people prefer style over substance... People are speaking of stats as if you need more than an CZ 550 to kill someone...

It was a clothing item near an ammo box, the ammo box had an L85 and two other weapons in... I took the L85. I've now lost it through my tent eating it but I'm obviously not going to lose my clothing (unless I find a ghillie). And thanks Broadsword, I was worried it'd punish me for being "a hacker" when it was sheer luck.

Anger? That's like me saying your post was fueled with anger too? It was more annoyance at a post that didn't really have to exist since I attempted to preempt such a response but apparently people will post the obvious. Also, insulting my "trade" and "thread"... why even bother to remain on the page to write that?

Tell me something I don't know. But some people seem to prefer it... Go get your post count up elsewhere...

You're now a bandit, welcome aboard.

People have already told you it doesn't meet the requirements... So I wont but here... 4chan optimized video settings, increase FPS and FOV

Then no wonder you missed, the default is 300m, if he was 600m then it's no wonder you missed the first shot. Use PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN to change the zeroing by 100m, if you set it to 600m and they're 550-650m away, dead center is a guaranteed hit.

So... I was at the airfield yesterday, I had my M24 aimed at the windows of the barracks only to have one ghillie wearing survivor and a regular clothed survivor to bop their head up and down across them. So, I waited for them to leave the building but I didn't know how long it'd be and I'm not the most patient sniper. I see the survivor stop... BANG! It looks like a hit, but no blood, no noise just he drops... I think he's dead as someone died at the same time but no murder added so I'm skeptical... His ghillie wearing friend runs out 30 seconds later, BANG! He's dropped as soon as he's turned out the door. I had to put more shots into the one outside but he did die... The one inside I heard eating but I could only have hit him in the head so I don't know if I got a hit or he just went prone instantly after I shot. So that was a pointless little story... tl;dr Can you kill through the barrack's windows?

In russia? No... But if it's bulletproof glass, it would stop the bullet. It certainly wouldn't let the bullet through it'd probably completely break first, which would require an insane amount of bullets even from a high powered weapon as well as shattering... which the glass does not do. Edit: There is also Home-Made Bulletproof Glass. Although you can't really tell, the person who posted it said it still didn't penetrate. It's an 5.56 penetrating tracer round, the M24 shoots a 7.62 but it is home-made and it is a penetrating round...

Did you zero it properly? M107 is pretty accurate at that range, it starts to lose it at around 900m... and even then, you should be able to easily kill with the 10 round mags.

It probably is quite difficult... The real point is that no matter how many skins they make, there won't be enough for individual players whilst being able to pick and choose specific parts as well as height/weight and such would make it easy to recognise others as well as feel more connected to your character, especially if you find different clothing. HATS! Just remove the one you start with ._______.

I suggest this being changed, namely because... well windows don't do that...

You may be right but it's obvious Rocket wants to go stand-alone... A lot of problems would be fixed this way as well as being able to implement features that the Arma engine never needed so they did not make is easy to do whilst starting from scratch would allow it to be a main concern from the beginning.

I like that it can happen but even a Makarov can kill in one headshot, an M24 headshot through glass should be an insta-kill... Right?

Here is my idea, the second section. Rare Items, Customisation and an Immersive HUD

Agreed but I certainly wouldn't do it for a Lee Enfield... And tying a body to a server would be nice, including after "death" so their death is registered properly with the HIVE as well as being able to loot it. However, I think it wouldn't be very fair but those leaving whilst being captured aren't really doing it to be fair. If this were to happen, it would have to have a limit of maybe 10 minutes? So after that they will break free no matter what, the lasso shouldn't be implemented at all as it'd be overpowered in this situation. Oh, and animals will probably struggle more than humans when you're trying to tie them up... Edit: People don't always die from one shot, I shot someone in the back with an M24 yesterday, was slightly below the neck and it didn't kill, I ran over emptying my last M9 SD magazine into him and he still didn't die, I had to put another M24 bullet in his chest from point blank range...

No... I didn't say that, I'm saying that playing with minimal risk of seeing another survivor is destroying the purpose of the game because the zombies generally are no real threat. Also "no loot in the whole city", loot respawns every 7 minutes (on average) so how can there be no loot in a whole city? Oh, and how am I being a troll?

Why would a fresh survivor give a fuck? They don't have anything to care about but self preservation to (hopefully) gain good gear, no point crying over a death when you'll spawn in the same exact circumstances in 10 seconds... Now killing that Ghillie wearing, Coyote having, M107 wielding, Night Vision using, GPS tracking survivor... That's fun. Edit: For the actual point... Survival is the only "goal" Everything else personal choice. You mention your weaponry, but... Do you really need that? If I was just going for a survival role, I wouldn't need any weapons... I could simply raid Berezino daily for my food and water, medical supplies (if need be) as well as heatpacks (when temperature actually works). Your hunting knife, matches and hatchet come in use for eating without looking for tins or for making a fire and staying warm without heatpacks (once again, when temperature works) but do you really need them? Just create your own goals, if you listen to goals that other people give you... why are you even playing?

I understood but your points are contradictory to the way the game currently works, the reason it's classed as a tool is because it's essentially an unlimited use item, so it being "consumed" would be a strange feature... Also hogtying an animal/person should cause the rope to be "consumed" so why would you need to drop it (to use a gun)? (Sort of my point with marking the things you said in red) With this, the only problem is people... They'll ALT+F4.

"My fat-headed team mate says joining a low population server for loot defeats the whole purpose of the game." He's right.

I generally don't shoot those unarmed, from there on... You're out to get my gear. If you have better gear than me, I'm hunting you down. This only happens when I have high tier equipment, if not I'll just run up to people and lean from side to side, I generally get shot but it's not overly bothersome when you know how easy it is to get that Enfield back...

I think you confused some points here... Anyway, I like the idea of something that allows me to steal from a player and then after 2 minutes (about 5 would be better) they can struggle free. I've ended up in firefights where I've knocked the enemy unconscious and just wanted to loot them, but I have no way of doing that or gauging when they'll come to. Although, the lasso part is kind of strange and no one would really be proficient with it in real life...

People posting about the "activity rate" but does that affect how often you become hungry/thirsty? Even so, you could go a while without food, you'd just be hungry a lot, especially if you had enough fluids to keep you going. I think you should need to drink 5-ish canteens a day, put that in any context you wish for playtime. While only having to eat once a day, but the meters shouldn't go from empty to full, there should be a tier system. So maybe you can have starving and full on opposite ends of the spectrum, you'd have to eat one meal a day to remain in the middle, eating more will have you closer to full, less would get you closer to starvation. I'm far too tired to expand this well so I'll stop now.

Yeah, I think it's in this FPS Guru Interview, if not... Apologies for the link.
