Whats unrealistic about combat pants? They already have access to the model from ArmA 3. It would be east to work in.

The thing is if the Devs implement ArmA mechanics, Grenade rounds will be finicky. 40mm grenades for M203/M320/M79 are low velocity rounds that can be affected by wind and takes practice to master the leaf sights. The mod had 40mm HEDP, but it was rare, you never had more than two lethal rounds. They are a certainty as the models are complete. As far as hand grenades being a high hazard in game, I've yet to see them be used to effect in combat.

The mod Dayz:Breaking point had a journal that had kill marks for zombies, days alive and players killed. I think such an item would fit in game.

His only experience with grenade launchers are the FPS games. I didn't know the Brits adopted the M320.

Interesting. I got the impression it would be heavier than an M240 with that metal assault pack that clips on to it and the larger round. Is the receiver aluminum?

I'm sorry, I should know you can't seem to pay attention to read a whole paragraph, so let me repost what you only seemed to partially read. Are you incapable of reading an entire sentence or is this some type of elaborate troll scheme on your part? I'm not sure what you think I'm trying to "snivle" out of, but I am not wrong in the scene that shotguns in their intact from have sights for a reason.

Next time, read the whole sentence.

No, I'm not "digging myself" anywhere. Nor am I claiming "All of my content refers to the OP". You really have trouble with reading comprehension as I stated you are claiming all my content refers to the OP and you could not understand what I was referring to or am trying to twist words to what you want to read. Rather than accept that you really have trouble understanding, you now try to rationalize it to make yourself feel that you have the upper hand in an internet augment and try to feel superior to make up for your shortcomings. Despite your misunderstandings, I am not trying to renege my original statement or trying to "snake" out of it for some nefarious purpose. I would try to explain that in internet forums, sometimes a post may be slightly off subject in a thread or directly address something that another user mentioned while in the same thread but unfortunately I doubt you are capable of understanding and would feel personally attacked instead.

I'm going to politely and partially disagree, only for the fact that shotguns are being used mostly in combat and not hunting in game. I remember being taught to engage center mass of an individual and apply fundamentals similar to iron sights (of a rifle). I'm not a hunter, and I'm sure you are correct on the subject of hunting, but are hunting mechanics in game at this stage of involvement?

I never quoted the OP, it is you that is goalposting and now claiming because I posted in this thread, all of my content refers to the OP and not the post I directly quoted. I think you need to pay attention more carefully next time before you jump to conclusions.

Again, you seem to be unable to comprehend that I was not referring to sawed off shotguns, and was replying to a post that failed to differentiate between a gun absent sights and one with them. Are you just selectively reading? Because you seem to have trouble understanding the context of what I am writing. You highlighted post where I wrote "sights". This is irrelevant because I never referred to a gun absent it's sights. Lets take another look and hope you can understand: Now, lets pay attention to this part of the statement: Now this part. Please pay attention: "A shotgun" in the context it was taken from implies any shotgun, IE an unmolested model with sights intact. Now lets take a common model of shotgun, the Remington M870. The Remington M870 has a front bead sight and a rear sight so the shooter can acquire sight picture and sight alignment. US Army doctrine teaches M870 users to raise the shotgun to shoulder length and apply fundamentals before shooting it, not blindly aiming in the general direction and hoping for the pellets to connect to target. This is contrary to the statement "you are not supposed to aim a shotgun - you point it". Let me remind you that the statement isn't "you are not supposed to aim a sawed off shotgun - you point it". If that was the case you would be correct.

M40 would make more sense seeing Operation Harvest Red only had Marine involvement.

I quoted this post: Notice how it uses the word "Shotgun" and does not specify any variant of a shotgun. The statement is wrong as it implies that you do not aim with any type of shotgun. I never referred to a sawed off variant of a shotgun even though you want to think I did. Please pay attention next time and read the post thoroughly. Also this isn't reddit. Meme images don't add value to your content. If you don't know the difference between a shotgun and a sawed off/SBS use these helpful links: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawed-off_shotgun

I really want to see us at least place clips in ammo cans. After all 5.56 is prepackaged in clips, and the can says "Clips" on it. On an unrelated note I would also like to see some Russian style ammo cans.

Why don't you read the original post I quoted before you put words in my mouth and imply I was referring to sawed off guns, where it was not exclusive to sbs/sawed off shotguns. Also several people saw down shotguns/use short barrel shotguns for concealment and/or close quarters, not just to achieve a wider spread. Fundamentals aren't all inclusive. Also shotguns have many uses besides hunting, such as defense. Jerking the trigger of a shotgun will cause you to be off target. Keeping both eyes open when engaging a target is common practice with other small arms, besides shotguns.

Chernarus is depicted as a very poor country and well off citizens who would have access to finer luxury items would most likely be in the capital,Novigrad which is not part of the dayz map.

I get the impression that you are the type of person that doesn't understand why all modern firearms are manufactured with pointy things on top.

The previous poster implied that you do not "aim" with a shotgun, which is not true. Even with a single bead sight you are still applying weapon fundamentals despite not gaining sight alignment with a rear sight.

You don't point your shotgun in the general direction of your target and pray for the best. Proper fundamentals with a shotgun require you to aim, that is when you have sights.

I really am looking forward to CDF gear. Also the duck bill on the PASGT may make it look cooler than a MICH, but the PASGT straps really suck and the bindings scrap your scalp if you don't wear headgear under it. I really hope we can expect the "Tactical shirts" to be replaced with MARPAT and OCP pattern uniforms, along with BDU and flecktarn surplus spawning at civilian homes.

Shotguns have sights for a reason.

Very good points. I never even considered the Takistani connection (how could I not seeing how it will rationalize the presence of FN FALs).

According to an MRE Box I read, warm food takes less energy to break down. Heating your food could add bonus energy perhaps.

I really want to see REAL American/NATO uniforms. We already have several gorka uniforms and TTsKO uniforms. It would be nice to see some rare uniforms spawn at crash sites.

I really want to see that partisan camo in game.
