Yeah but that stuff is highly corrosive, if you don't clean your gun right away and that will be the norm with survivors because you can't keep cleaning your weapon after every shot they can toss the gun away in the evening. But you still need some tools to form the cups and need find the materials...?

Unless you are a fresh player or really stupid in believing every player you encounter is friendly you wouldn't get that close to another survivor anyway since they normally shoot you the moment they see you. He meant it like that. But still...survivors are immune to the virus. So it's basically not possible.

IRL i wouldn't have to stop to do that although it is better to do so with or without a holster/sling. With a holster/sling you might be able place the weapon in a better position to draw it faster and i don't have to carry a normal rifle around in my backpack if i don't use a secondary primary ( <--- omg what a word ) and don't have a sling, there are various ways to carry it without much fatigue ( of course this will not work that well with a machine gun or .50 sniper which brings us back to the thought if a player really needs to carry a .50 around like he is going to pop car engines all day long. There is no need to discuss damage because blood and hitpoints will be altered in the SA so we don't need that extra firepower for one hit kills.

Is he also making wound healing a bit more realistic? Like non instant healing and healing time depending on a wound? A leg shredded by a bullet should take longer than when you cut yourself while cooking beans and slicing veggies for it.

You get it if you shoot newspawns at the beaches, but only if you use M107 or AS50.

The reason why is hidden in Gews post...i even highlighted it for you. Unlike gamers who would even try to play war in Tetris "normal" people would not run around in a ghillie suit or covered in foliage 24/7. Most people would use clothing that has similar colors to the environment and i don't mean camosuits. Reasoning doesn't seem to work when weapons and games come together. As long as it fits to the environment there should be nothing to complain about. Often enough you would just hide a vehicle behind a house or in a garage anyway. A wrong way to camouflage a vehicle is of course to cut down foliage next to the vehicle and cover it up with that without moving it away first.

It irrelevant what type of crafting system they use from any game...in the end it's just about beeing able to create weapons of all kind...not about "turning swords into plowshares". Kind of like the penis drawing thing...

If it's a tactical swat green beret spec ops holster...yes maybe, it also depends where you have your holster. But even a holster doesn't guarantee a quick draw, it's first purpose is to be able to carry a gun safely. It's like a pair of underpants that prevents your dong from dangling around and falling out...

Regardless of the caliber it ( almost ) fails as a bullet if it can't deliver a large amount of it's power into the target and penetrates without doing serious damage.

I know but you don't have to give them every bit of advantage, right?

Nice idea...every survivor in those post apocalyptic series always runs around dressed as a bush... Why would i want to dress in leaves unless anyway i want to KoS, DayZ is not a war...

I think people trying to survive in an apocalype shouldn't try or even think of waging WW3. KoS is the imo the wrong mentality for this game. Not that it isn't unrealistic to find tools if you look into the right places but it's like with beeing able to draw freely in game ---> PENISES. This

I know, but i just wanted to show that not everything that you find in those post apocalyptic games just isn't possible for the average DayZ loner. Even i wouldn't even waste a thought of making ammo from scrap with my experience. You are pretty helpless is you need powered tools in a post apocalyptic scenario, everything that was a given is suddenly very difficult.

Like it's easy to make casings...the projectile itself is fairly easy but lead alone will plug your barrel after very few shots = gun ruined. It takes a lot of steps to form a casing out of a stamped disc, you need machines with a lot of power and a lot of lubricant. AND OF COURSE YOU NEED THE TOOLS, you don't happen to be a trained tool and die maker, because i learned that job back in 1995 and i know what it takes to form metal pipes and sheet metal into exhaust systems, it's practically the same procedure. A hammer, an anvil and willpower won't do the trick. It's not something you would do in mass production in your garage. A hand press also needs quit the amount of "manpower".

Could be anthing from bad internet to bad server having too many players. Did you deactivate windows autoupdate?

Farming is realistic...but i don't think normal people will operate a big farm unless they are farmers, maybe something smaller the size of a garden. A lot of people living in a rural area like Chernarus would have one to grow a small amount of vegetables if they owned a house with garden.

How long did you play? If you play and survive long enough you will find yourself lacking food and water in no time. If you play alone food and water is not a problem, try a team. How the food and water looks like is secondary imo, at least it's healthier than the food in DayZ :lol: Wasteland was developed way before DayZ afaik and evolved a different way than DayZ for obvious reasons. At least the mission is not a copy of a copy of a copy of a mission.

The knuckle duster would probably do a lot of damage if you fired it point blank ( meaning stuck in ). The blade would pierce the skin, the bullet would travel quite a bit or maybe penetrate the body and the gases would bbq the inside. Damage also depends on what type of weapon you use. A meat cleaver could cause heavily bleeding flesh wounds that need some attention when bandaging while a stabbing weapon ( f.e. a really big nail ) would cause not so lethal puncture wounds but could also hit something important if stuck deep enough in the right place.

An old acquaintance from OFP...practically there before most ArmA 2 players were even "born into gaming".

Would be niceeasier to shoot you out of a vehicle in the darkno use with 3P

You are supposed to stick it in before you shoot...like something else...you know? :D

What would there be? BIS is not a publisher and i doubt they would spend that much for a game that is a niche product.

You can't compare a copycat product to the original idea even if they poured a lot of sweat into it. In the end their work is not based on their own idea and i wouldn't take it personal if Rocket decided to make them stop by court order because they are ruining his profit. After all it's his product and he doesn't have to allow competition to mod it like they want.

Use your brain...would there be a metro designed to transport people in a huge city and connect the suburbs to it. Which idiot would build tunnels in a rural area to build a metro that doesn't even pay off? Did you actually read the map? Guess why there is only one track...

Why only spec ops combat knives? The kitchen knife or cleaver is the most used weapon to kill your family in their sleep...just saying because every weapon suggested has to be "military".
