Correct

That's just the lower reciever like most modern guns already have, it doesn't get that much force but it will surely break a lot faster than a polymer lower..show me an upper reciever that can handle that many rounds.. I bet even larger groups will enough knowledge would prefer a reliable gun like the AK. Even a weapons expert said he wants an AK if society collapses.

You mean airsoft guns or real guns? I know for a fact that the chinese copies of airsoft guns break even before you use them. And whoever has to print a gun to survive should print a single shot gun and shoot himself. People found guns older than 50 years that were still in use up until today ( even an M16A1 that looked really used ). And i doubt most AKs in that container they showed were actually field stripped and cleaned thoroughly in the decades they were used.

When society collapses money is worth less the paper it was printed on because society dictates the value of things. Bartering is the future in this setting. You could use the bills as some sort of exotic toilet paper if you want. At least you didn't want the money, gun shops and general stores or else i would have kicked you in the ****.

...and you would really do that IRL...?

Well you could always take any extreme example or a way to live or whatever they call it, but those will never be mainstream ;) I hope one day someone will invent wireless bungee jumping...

Yes.

As long as they manage to create a believable lighting i'm all for it. But with light or fire illuminating stuff through walls it sucks.

Just install Steam on it and either reinstall the game with steam or copy your folder into the new pc and let Steam verify the data. As long as you are not running Steam on both pcs there shouldn't be a problem.

lol another revival of this thread. Like the people above said. You need the materials and tools to reload them in the first place. And if you mix it wrong you will be the one who has spent his last breath on the first shot with the "new" ammo. Yes the shotgun is very versatile but using stuff that was not supposed to be shot out of that gun can/may/will damage/destroy it.

You just have to keep in mind that "those" games are far from reality and only hollywood action, then you can still enjoy them. But actually admitting something like that should earn you more than just beans.

Like this?

And it should "break" your leg DayZ style... Barefoot can't be less healthy than using shoes but people use shoes to have their feet protected just in case or else they wouldn't have invented shoes for every possible purpose because that makes it easier for the modern human because we are not used to walk barefoot anymore ( we wear shoes from early childhood ). Some might be tough and ccan walk barefoot but i don't think you could walk around just the same way with a 25-50kg backpack on you and it also depends on the surface you are walking on. The best surface to walk barefoot is on a "natural" surface.

You forget one major thing...who would man the radio station other than DJ Z?

Well with around 8k USD every farmer in Chernarus should be able to afford one...it's really an important tool to see if someone is either trying to steal you crops or just having a nooky. Back to sense: At that price i truly doubt it will be that common and we all know what "rare" in DayZ means....wait long enough and you flood the game with it.

If they use a similar system like in ArmA 3 all demands should have been fullfilled.

Also a possibilty would be when a player gets close to an object of interest ( meaning an object where you can use your menu to interact with it ) something on the screen ( circle, square, dot ) pops up so you know where you aim at the said object in order to be able to interact with it, but only when you mouse scroll, LMB would remove it at once to prevent abuse as an aiming device when near objects. But you don't normally need it since 99% of all actions can be done within a radius around those objects once you face them. Doors and gates can be a bit tricky though but it's managable.

Even with pings lower than that a single high pinger can desync the whole game for everyone and because the net code from ArmA is so shitty it makes sense to limit it to a lower number. Of course this isn't good for players with higher pings or live far away. But keeping a server open for the "local" internet users ( by local i mean those with up to 150ms with already is high in Europe because most people have good internet and the distances aren't so far as in fe. America or in Oceanic regions ) and kicking out high pingers you ensure a fuild gameplay for everyone. In most other games players are beeing slowed down to the level of the slowest internet user so in the end everyone is affected, too but not to that extent as in ArmA.

Most players i met use the suit in the wrong way because they lay down where they don't blend in with the environment ( wrong surface )... The color of the suit should have an impact on where you can bee seen and where you can't. I had a funny encounter yesterday too bad i didn't record it. I was playing wasteland at dawn ( you could see clearly as it was already very bright ) and had a guy with OD pants, a flecktarn jacket and a black balaclava and was kneeling weapon down next to a wooden wall near a tiny shed when suddenly i heard footsteps coming from the house in front of me. I saw a player moving towards me at walking speed with his gun up so i though "oh oh i'm dead"...but he made a 90° turn to the right 5m away from me and went into a house... "phew". 1 min later he came out again turned left and again looked into my direction while trying to get back where he came from, this time i was aiming at him. He still didn't see me so i opened fire...so much for people and the need for camo, this also happened to me when wearing bright cloting a couple of times even in DayZ...

This ( marked ) is where i stopped reading...another excuse to get more weapons thread...and i bet the ship is an american one, too.

No wonder why they get shot all the time when all they see is their butt...

They still find STG44 and stuff from that time in the middle east nowadays...

Bullets in game don't travel that far anyway. Most shots are too short. Because it's zeroed at 400m...you don't need a DMR beyond 150m, you can still engage targets up to 300m just fine. Anything beyond that is a sniper survival and not a sombie survival, it's not like zeds carry rifles in the first place.

Explain the abundance of western guns...no logic...?

Not really...the current modern fps shooters show that you can make a copy of a copy of a copy ( which is the same dumbed down version of the predecessor with another backstory and the same old graphics ) and sell it for even more money every time and nobody complains about it beeing the same stuff everytime except the gamer magazines and everyone buys it.
