Currently the LMG lineup is all Western, and seeing this mod is based in Chernarus and has a whole stockpile of AK-variants in use ingame I suggest adding a few russian LMGs to the LMG lineup. Right now there is the: M240 (U.S.) M249Saw(U.S.) Mk48(U.S.) which is basically another SAW I suggest: RPK-74 (Nice thing about the RPK-74 is that it will be one more weapon to share ammo with the AK-74 series) PKM Both solid and fairly common Soviet LMGs, infact the RPK is just a souped up AK. Both models are also ingame (Arma 2) And if you are really feeling nice: The Pecheneg - Monster of the East (Just kidding it's just a modern PKM)

Either random babies ingame that cry when zombies get close to them, and then the zombies proceed to eat them and you hear a baby scream in terror, then silence. or.. Just a random ambient noise of a baby crying for a couple seconds once every 20 or 40 minutes when you are in a city and or near the hospital. Also just a thought, maybe also equally random and spaced out baby laughing sound effect. I think that would be really creepy. What the hell does that baby think is so funny?!

Yep. Sometimes tents bug out even if they are saved and pull a houdini after a restart. And Vehicles always despawn after a server restart so never store anything you really want to keep in vehicles. Unless you are the server admin and you control the restarts.

BeerTiger drop the weapon immediately, never pick up gear ingame that isn't supposed to be, they ban people mistakenly for that even if the person picked it up off a dead hacker they killed.

Server Name: Seattle 119 Time: 3:20pm EST What Happened: I was in the top floor of the Fire Station by the Power Plant. Looking around to see if I could find any players to stalk and I see this guy running full speed at the Power Plant gates. Literally a second later he is right infront of my on the top floor with his gun facing me shooting at me. I started shooting and he didn't die until I dumped my entire clip of my AK-74 into him. Again, as in my last report, this guy didn't bleed, or break a bone, or seem to exhibit any other status effect until he died. So I am not sure what other scripts he's running but I am sure he was using a teleporting hack to appear infront of me all of a sudden with a gun pointed right at me. I wasn't lagging at all either, I was at 37 ms for a ping. The players name was Insanity but he spells it with a bunch of capitals and lowercase letters all mixed up. I am sure he was doing this to other players as well because when I killed him it was tallied as a Bandit Killed and not a Murder.

the only shotgun ammo you can't use is the 15rd Winchester slugs. The 2 & 8 rd slug and pellets you can use.

It's too bad you couldn't get any names, I think these guys are the same ones hitting my camps and vehicles on Seattle 34.

Server: Seattle 24 Time: 10AM Est What Happened: Draginator755 entered the firestation at the powerplant with 2 zombies on his tail. He had a ghillie suit on. He proceeded to headshot both zombies then went to go up the tower stairs, I was lying in wait for him at the base of the stairs. It was still dark on this server so he couldn't see me, I aimed my PDW in semi auto mode at the center of his chest as he walked through the door and fired about 5 shots. I know these five shots hit because he was less then 5 ft away. He didn't even bleed. He went behind the wall disoriented, and I switched to full auto, he came back out and I unloaded the rest of the 30 round clip into him, he ran back behind the wall, I reloaded, and he exposed himself by about a foot and I aimed at his exposed mass and unloaded another clip. As I was reloaded he came back out again shot and killed me. I'm not sure what weapon he was using, he claims it was makarov, I thought it was a G17 as it had a light, and only one pistol has a light. But the point of contention I have is that I unloaded 60 bullets point blank and he did not die, nor bleed, or even break a bone. I am 100% sure I hit him with all my shots in semi auto mode, and at least half in full auto, as he was only 5 feet away and I was aiming the entire time (Ins) in prone positon (which as we know offers the best recoil control). He was either standing or crouching, I am not sure which as it was dark. He claims he wasn't cheating and that's dayz and that my loot is now his. I came back to my corpse after he had looted it and there was duplicates of everything, even his *makarov*, there was also 2 of my PDWs and 2 of my enfields, and 2 winchesters (which was dropped by me earlier for the enfield) so if he's not cheating with a health hack, he sure is with duping. Anyways that's what happened on Seattle 24 at 10 this morning. Also if he had a chemlight in his hand with the *makarov* then I'd like to point out this bug report thread: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=22141

Who said Day Z was a flat out deathmatch? If you actually read my post I stated it's supposed to be the exact opposite. The end. To clarify I said a lot of players have been treating it like it's a deathmatch game.

This is idea is dumb as hell, this isn't World of Warcraft. It's Day Z and Day Z is just fine. There already are, it's called Epi-Pen's and Blood Bags. Not to mention 2 sets of eyes and ears and two guns pointed at zombies instead of one.

Date/Time: Just started playing 4 days ago, this has been happening everyday since then. What happened: It started when I found a Hatchet, and looted it, All my ammo dropped from my main and sidearm inventories. When I removed the Hatchet from the Toolbelt to my Main Inventory slot, it happened again. This behavior has also been confirmed when looting Matches, Binoculars, Watches, Maps, Flashlights, and Compass. Haven't found a GPS or NVGs to confirm those. Where you were: Anywhere What you were doing: Adding or Removing Items from the Toolbelt *Current installed version: 1.7.1.5. and Latest Steam version of Arma 2 Combined Operations. *Server(s) you were on: It happens on Any Server. I only join servers running 1.7.1.5. and the latest or second latest beta if they show it (93965 or 93825) *Your system specs: ASUS P7P55D Motherboard, Intel Core i7 2.8ghz quadcore cpu, 1 terabyte Seagate Harddrive, 7200 rpms, 8 gbs of Patriot Dominator DDR3 1333mhz RAM, and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 460 SE with 1gb of GDDR5 Memory, and Nvidia High Definition Audio since my Soundblaster X-fi stopped working recently. *Timeline of events before/after error: Just going through the regular Day Z motions of Survive, Loot, Kill Zombies if spotted, Bandage, Pain Killers for the Shakes, Morphine if Zombie Breaks bone (Happens quite often), Survive, Loot, Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

I support this thread, rare ammo spawning on military/police zombies, or just mil, and more interchangeable ammunition for rare guns. I'd also like to see the M9SD be able to use regular M9 ammo and vice-versa, or quite plainly they should just use the same mag. I have confirmed the M9SD cannot load standard M9 mags. Which is unfortunate cuz the M9SD mags are superfrickin rare. And it doesn't help that it takes 3-4 shots to drop a zombie.

Loving Day Z, I am surprised that the greatest survival food on the planet isn't in Day Z, and yes I know it will take away from Beans reigning supreme, but I think adding Military Rations to the Military Buildings would be nice, convenient, and cool. A lot of times when I am exploring military areas there is no canned food to be found. Only once in a great while, and at times I've almost starved to death. So I think Military rations would be a good fit. Then you can either make them restore the same amount of blood and hunger as Canned Goods, or boost Canned goods to 400 blood, and put Military Rations at 200. Or whatever you think is best. I just wanted to share my suggestion as I think Military Rations would be very fitting for Military areas in the game.

It was a bad day for me in DayZ. Including losing some sweet guns to item eating backpacks and tents, I had to watch a player steal my M9SD with 5 mags and get away scott-free because zombies had me trapped on the Firestation roof. I put my M9SD down to use my flashlight to explore the firestation, found some nice loot including a PDW, and I'm making my way down to the firestation floor from the 4 level tower, and sure enough I get sucked through the wall onto the firestation roof (happened to me twice already before this) and as soon as I get to the ladder to climb down, a zed horde gathers at the bottom, literally like 6 of them. They wouldn't climb the ladder either, they just stayed right down there. I figured I'd wait em out, and 3 minutes later I see a flare coming from inside the station. I'm like "Shit my M9SD!" I go to the edge of the roof to look down at the ground and sure enough a player walks out holding my M9SD and heads for the Supermarket with it, he hugged the wall so I couldn't get a shot at him, but I saw the zombies chase him so I'm like "dammit, I'm getting my gun back!" Went down the ladder, went into the station grabbed the G17 he dropped and headed after him and the Zombie horde following him, I got 40 feet when a zombie ambushed me outta nowhere, didn't have the G17 loaded, cuz I was only thinking on getting my M9 back and this zombie is smacking me in the face while I'm trying to shoot him or reload the gun, whichever happens first, I get the gun reloaded, but for some reason it was shooting at the ground even tho i was looking right at the zombies chest. Needless to say he broke my bones, and then proceeded to devour my intestines as I fell over unconscious. Just as I saw a new flare spring up around the Supermarket. I respawned at Prigorodki and ran my ass off back to the Firestation, hoping the guy didn't hear my crazy desperate gunshots, and secretly hoping he got ate by the zombies as well. I ran so fast, so carelessly and somehow managed to make it back to the firestation without a single zombie following me, I see my corpse, and my first thought is "oh no! what if he came back looted me?" but as I got closer, and hid behind my corpse in the shadows, I found out he didn't. Which only reinforced my thoughts that he suffered an equally brutal demise at the Supermarket. All his flares had died out by now. I salvaged my gear and crawled to the Supermarket. "No mistakes this time!" I said to myself. I crept in the back of the Supermarket, not daring to use the G17's flashlight incase Mr.Stole-My-Gun was still inside, and breathing. I happened to notice the surplus of loot, a ALICE Backpack, a Crossbow, a Makarov, enough Soda and Canned food to feed an army for a year, and this made me really believe my tormentor was deceased. I searched the entire store, and I searched it again, and I searched the street outside, for anything, a clue, a zombie corpse, or better yet a human corpse. I had never wanted to find someone dead so bad in my life. But all I could think about was the hours it took me of scavenging Airfields to find that beautiful silent killer. Then it hit me like a brick, he must of disconnected to drop the zombies on his tail. I'll never find my M9SD now I thought. After searching the strangely quiet streets, I crawled back into the Supermarket, empty handed. I picked the Supermarket dry in silence. Sometimes I crawled by a moonlit window, the light showing the grim look of defeat on my face and I imagined the other survivor off on his own server literally jumping for joy over his new toy. I finished stuffing the last of the scavenged items into my pack, and headed back out into the night, turning my thoughts to a warm fire and a hot meal back at my camp.

You might want to update the first post, ATVs do indeed have storage, I'm storing about 40 items in mine right now.

I can confirm this is still happening as of 1.7.1.5. with beta 93965. I also think it is a Server-to-Hive connection gone haywire thing. Today I lost my brand new AK74 with 3 mags, Crossbow with 5 bolts, and 3 morphine autoinjectors (really bummed about the morphine as zombies seem to magically break bones my very often). The worst part is it has not saved items in my tent or atv at times either. Lost my AKM with 9 mags and my 870 with 5 handfuls of shells. It sucks so I keep my best weapons on me in the Primary and Sidearm slots and I'm still afraid of losing them.

Ok I have an update for this, I'm 99% that it's only ammo that is NOT tied to a current gun. Cuz I've looted the toolbelt items with my M16 and M9 and that ammo stayed, but the G17, AKM, and Lee-Enfield ammo I had (That I found for my guns back at the tent) did get dropped. Also this rule doesn't seem to apply with Shotgun rounds, they always seem to drop out of the inventory whether it's an equipped weapon or not.

Yeah supposedely Arma Devs patched Arma 2 to keep track of ammo properly in a recent beta patch, so now we just gotta wait for Rocket to include the support, no more disappearing mags and no more exploiting mags and everyones happy

Don't worry, you're not the only one, I've had ammo and other items straight up disappear from my inventory and backpack. I don't think some servers transfer your character data as well as others. That's the only reason that I think this could be happening. I've also had Blood Descrepencies from logging out and back in, or switching servers.

Good thing it's only for .45ACP for now that can really be abused, abusing the shotgun conversions is much harder, and you wouldn't gain that much ammo.

Same thing happened to me on Seattle34, saved the tent like 6 times, logged off, came back on 6 hours later, and everything I put inside was gone and I could no longer packup the tent. I am pretty sure nobody looted it because my ATV was left untouched, and still had it's items in it, and it was 5 ft from the tent. Also 6 hours is pretty quick for a tent to be raided so I'm pretty sure it bugged out, cost me some great gear.

That video didn't show anything except how you killed them, your truck was already behind the bus, why don't you show us, you guys riding to the location and finding the bus, instead of ALREADY being at the bus. Also a bunch of teleporting hackers killing people on servers because their "Mole" feeds them expert terrain data better then a GPS navigation system=Priceless Lol Its a partial clip, I didn't record everything nor was I a part of all the action. I'm even pissed off that I forgot to FRAPS the entire adventure. If we could teleport around the map, spawn vichles at a whim, why didn't we just DO that then? Why did we bother to capture all that stuff and fix up the truck after the buss encounter? Why did we bother to break down your convoys and steal your rides? We stole your Ural as well and blew it up after joyriding it a while. Your position is one based on smoke and shadows, and it raises more questions than it answers. Occam's Razor would be that you would be hacking' date=' since nametags can never be enabled on Veteran servers. Try again. [/quote'] Occam's Razor would be as follows: We are closer to your group than you think, and your mole was within the van and revealing names. I am not even from this server, I am just a nosey forumite. But I would have to side with that your clan was indeed hacking based on 3 things: 1. Several Posters/Witnesses in this thread stated you guys appeared out of thin air right in front of them. 2. You are using weapons that can't be acquired in Day Z (Thermal scopes) 3. You can see Player's Name Tags when you have them Targeted, which is turned off by default on Veteran.
