Stabbing people with the hunting knife

I want to bludgeon someone with a spoon -
Okay, before you start bashing your head against the keyboard out of spite for the outrageous title, read the whole post. Why are there so many different guns in DayZ? Now, i'm not suggesting that all the guns should be limited to pistols and shotguns, but hear me out. My best point to be made here is: Why are there FIVE types of LMGs!? And NINE sniper rifles?? What happened to the realistic zombie apocalypse simulator? Okay, yes. Overrun military camps DO have military weapons in them. Fair enough, that makes sense. But why is there armament of light machine guns to choose from? If anything, there should be one or two types, not five. Same for sniper rifles, I can understand the existence of the CZ550 and M24, but why do we need a fucking 50. caliber sniper rifle in this game? What's the point? Nobody uses it for zombies; the entire purpose of this gun is to promote playerkilling. However, the shotguns and pistols seem to be right on par with realism, save for the PDW. I'm pretty sure the russian military doesn't have UZIs, considering it's an Israeli gun. The crossbow spawn should be far lower, but only if the arrows stack. Until then, leave the crossbow as is. I DO think that there are far too many assault rifles in DayZ, also. But many of these are traditional guns found in zombie apocalypse scenarios, like an AK. Some guns that should be removed include: Bizon (yes, i know it's an SMG), FN FAL, L85 AWS, M16A2 M203. These weapons seem very unfitting for a zombie apocalypse, because it's guns like these that serve no purpose but to playerkill. Are you really going to use your L85 AWS on a zombie? No. What about the Bizon? Good for zombies, right? Being silenced, and all? Nope. The rarity of these guns and the ammo they require (save for L85 AWS using silenced STANAG) is so high that it seems they don't really serve a purpose in this game other than to kill someone with your cool gun. TL;DR: The number/variety of guns is too many for realism's sake, and i don't want to hear the "It's super realistic/It's not realistic BS from anybody. The game is not realistic now. Now. It's changes like the ones i suggested that would make it more realistic. If i didn't say that a gun you pwn some n00bs with all the time should stay, then STFU. Nobody cares if you want the AS50. You never use that on zombies anyway. Nobody is going to use a 50. caliber sniper rifle on something they could one-shot with a makarov. edit: I don't think M16s should go. No, M16s should stay. It's the underbarrel grenade launcher that shouldn't be here. As for Bizon, the only reason it should be removed is because of the fact that the weapon and ammo is only found at heli crash sites, so it's instantly the last gun you want to use for something so abundant, like zombies. You want to save it for something else. edit2: I think there should be more police weapons, as well as more shotguns; plenty of people in the country own different shotguns.

Tent's contents going poof.
omgwtfbbq (DayZ) replied to Ashnik's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I understand how to use a tent, I just can't understand why you would want to. Why make a camp? What are you saving it for? Killing people with a new gun every day? Storing your 4 NVGs that you can only use 1 of? Explain plz -

That's another weird ambient sound. -

Can someone tell me the reason for tents? As far as I'm concerned, if you can't carry it on you, it's not worth taking. -

Exactly why I think it's weird and worth posting. Don't care if it's fixed, but I would like to know why it happens. -

I was playing on an empty server while at the NWAF, and I heard a helicopter every few minutes. Not a helicopter. -

New map for standalone possible?
omgwtfbbq (DayZ) replied to Ixnay Hombre's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
DayZ could already work on the other free-roam maps on ArmA 2, can't it? I would assume that it could work on other maps as well. -
Would you kill the unarmed?
omgwtfbbq (DayZ) replied to Ashnik's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion

Seriously, to all of you people out there who kill people for the hell of it, if you're going to do that, at least stop calling yourself a bandit. Please tell me where in that it says that a bandit is someone who kills people? An outlaw or gangster does not directly mean that they kill people. Gangs have gang wars, meaning they go against other groups of people. One person on a hill by Cherno is not a gangster. Gangs also form organized raids, something also rarely seen by these snipers around big loot spawns. Why not take your buddies, and have a few people provide overwatch, and send in three or four people to raid the barracks? That is an organized raid. Definition 3. "One who cheats or exploits others." Camping with an AS50 is not cheating someone out of their stuff. Guns are not con artists. Definition one. "A robber, especially one who robs at gunpoint." So please, if you're going to kill people, at least stop calling yourself a bandit. Call yourself a killer. Call yourself a murderer, I really don't care. But I'm sick of people posting things that say "I am a bandit" or "Bandits like me". Enough. The only person who is clearly a bandit is AceBane. As for the others who rob, good for you. I can't identify you, but for all the killers who call yourself bandits, No. You're wrong. Call yourself something else. Make up a name for all I care. Feel free to throw in any suggestions below. You are not a bandit. edit: How about Assassin? Cutthroat? Soldier? (I like this one; Survivors and Soldiers)

they should add rpg into this game!!
omgwtfbbq (DayZ) replied to dogtree's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Oh, I thought you meant RPG like a Role Playing Game. Hence "They should add rpg into this game". Which is an awful idea. I don't want to grind/find keys or some shit -
