Yes, it's a very common tactic.

For fucks sake people, I don't know how many times I have to say this. BALANCE IS NOT A MAIN ELEMENT OF DAYZ. The reason dayz is so different from other games is because of its complete lack of balance. You can be killed at any moment and lose everything and that's what the allure of the game is. Stop bitching about the .50 cals because they are "too OP". Deal with it, play the game, and stop being such an easy target.

First off this is a disclaimer saying I did not read the entire thread (it's 1:30Am here and I cannot be asked). But what place does removing a weapon have because it's "too OP" have in dayz? I'm sorry but I thought this game was based on being unforgiving, harsh, and damn near traumatizing at points. Why are we removing weapons of which that I'm sure would be a few lying around any military installation at any given moment zombie outbreak or not. And before some smart ass goes off and says something along the lines of "oh well then there should be tanks and battleships in the game" allow me to preemptively retort by saying those in all likelihood not be in an area where the main targets are unarmored, unarmed "civillians". Now let's be clear I don't think there shouldn't be any realistic degradation or weight of the rifle so that it would require maintenance or can be carried with as much ease as a pistol. Also one last thing: the idea of getting a .50 cal rifle acts as sort of an ultimate goal for lone survivors or small groups simply because of their rarity and usefulness. It's almost a sort of a status symbol more than just a powerful weapon. Tl;Dr: .50 cals exist in real life therefore should exist in dayz. Quit your complaining.

BUTT

Why shouldn't 4-5 shots kill someone? I doubt you get shot 5 times with an m16 and you'll be doing much good. Also spray and pray is already pretty much useless in dayz already due to the amount of recoil. Oh and the l85 doesn't do 8000 dmg, it's just a rumor.

I really like the idea of condition, although I think it should be influenced by what the can/can carrier have been through. Like if the can was in a backpack of a person who was shot and left in a swamp or something would be rusted, or a dusty can would be one that has been carried for a while or been left in a dry place for a long time.

I like it, post moar!

Mac probably couldn't handle it.

Look up some more in depth guides, if your computer isn't very capable you need to squeeze every bit of fps you can get. Like I said, look up some guides.

Might also be your fps, arma has a lot of fps issues. Try optimizing your settings a bit (just look up some guides). Low fps can make aiming quite slow and unresponsive.

The pellets were removed because the winchester actually isn't a shotgun, it only acts like one because it's was made specifically for dayz from a reskinned shotgun.

It's creepy as fuck that's what.

debug monitor? what is this madness.
