NATO militaries use them.

You cannot. Back in the mod you could, however there is no interface for exchanging items between living,awake players.

You know what would be great for this thread? A paragraph with details and content.

Almost died to the "Take falling damage in a two story building until you walk down stairs" Glitch. Fucking glitch cost me my pants, an AKM magazine and a new sewing kit. Left with a sliver of health and broken legs too.

You are not an empty vessel, but a Macgyver clone. Able to administer blood bags and IV drips, install a KAC rail system on an M4A1 with no hex key set, swipe the handguards or buttstock on any AK pattern weapon in seconds as well as convert an AKM into an AKMS with no tools. Lets not forget saw down rifles and shotguns without fear of failure.

I would really like to see things like mortars and RPG-7s and seeing them as user unfriendly as they are IRL.

For some reason I envision a man with a claymore mine strapped to his chest and a clacker in his hand.

what the hell is wrong with that arm?

Judging by the wrecked UH-60s and soft shell humvees, yes. If it was post American involvement, such wrecks would have been recovered or destroyed to the point of non recognition as it is policy to destroy anything like that to prevent it being used for propaganda purposes or being salvaged then sold or repaired. Its clear the outbreak happened during or just after Operation Harvest Red and the Russian peacekeeper intervention. On an unrelated note does anyone feel wierd when comparing the events in ArmA 2 and the Ukraine Crisis and noting the similarities?

Blanks look different. Gas powered firearms will not cycle correctly with blanks unless you use a blank firing adapter. Blanks are less noisy than live rounds and can be told apart when hearing them. You can still injure someone with blanks at close distances.

Because no other country besides the US has civilian gun ownership or allows the importation of foreign made firearms for civilian use.

Yet another person ignoring the fact that the devs stated that this game is tied to the events of ArmA 2 where US Marine Recon Russian Spetsnaz was active.

I would like the MG3.

There is a Navy variant chambered in 7.62x51. http://www.forgottenweapons.com/m1-garand-development/navy-7-62mm-garand-conversion/

So the HK G11,HK XM8, Gyrojet rifle, and General Electric XM214 Microgun are less "irrelevant" than a M1 Garand? What is an "irrelevant weapon" anyway? Because it sounds like a weapon that wouldn't matter in DayZ. Do you mean out of place weapon? The flaw in that statement is the history of Chernarus in WW2 is unknown. Nor is the popularity of civilian weapons or full detail of the illegal arms trade with neighboring Takistan.

Rails are standard on M240s and M249s in the US military. I have never seen one without a RAS on the cover and both have been required to be equipped with handguard Rails for a very long time. I have only seen FN MAGs without rails with Sweedish and Canadian forces.

Yeah Mugabe is such a great leader. Inflating the currency to the point of uselessness and murdering white farmers and introducing a state of constant famine and poverty to the region is a better alternative. Get educated. Mugabe IS the IRL DayZ KOSer bandit king and ignorance like that keeps people like him in power.

Birts really dropped the ball there. I read British Government was assisting Mugabe with intelligence during the Bush war. Whoever approved that should be in jail.

Give players a "Light Green" spray paint. Allow players to paint both tones of green on certain rifles to create a "Rhodesian" pattern.

It may be, I'll have to research it. But I think a similar pattern could be achieved with spray paint. After all your Macgyver of a survivor can create a professionally made 4 tone camo pattern on a mosin nagant rifle using only two spray paints.

This isn't the walking dead. What makes you think that would work on infected in Chernarus?

Could someone post the devblog? For some reason our server here blacklisted the website.

End game in the mod was a AS50 player camping an area away from the threat of zombies or discovery shooting 800 meters+ at others with no threat of retaliation.

That "Rybec from Canada" guy knows his shit. I would rather see the RPG-7 in game rather than anti material weapons. They are common in areas such as East Europe, require practice to use effectively, expose the operator and have more applications than an anti material rifle.

Couldn't watch the video. The only "Explosive sniper round" I can think of is Mk211 Raufoss in .50 BMG. From what I understand anti material weapons chambered in .50 BMG will not be in game.
