M16A4 ACOG. It's just so versatile and accurate, even at close range. I've gotten countless headshots on running targets everywhere from 25m-300m.

If you were really sorry about spamming you'd stop spamming these threads.

No, just make it block zombies. It's called balancing.

I hear you dude, I keep seeing things in real life that are in dayz and having a slight moment of "oh shit!" or "oh cool!". For example: it seems every time I see a toolbox irl nowadays I think "oh cool another tool to add to my belt!" or when I see a tractor I ponder taking it and using it as a mobile camp.

On the other hand though this does sound like punishing people for their playstyle, I like the idea the guy above me had of simply making the actual shot the challenge.

Not a bad idea, although if implemented you should still be able to train yourself with it. Maybe after a certain amount of time survived with it and a certain number of shots fired your character starts to get the hang of it.

WBTBWB, I approve of you music tastes sir.

Then as you get there, you hear shots ring out. Your vehicle gives out, your friends die, and as your life slowly fades; you see a squad of multinational troops heading towards your vehicle. They pull you out of your vehicle to the ground and begin dragging you and your companions to a burning pile of bodies. The soldiers strip you of your gear, throw you into the burning pile. Meanwhile they are taking your vehicle, stripping it down and taking the supplies inside. And right before you take your final dying breaths you notice off in the distance, another set of headlights, seeming eager to join this rumored refuge.

Too late...

What the fuck are you even saying?

Better get walkin son. Kids these days, back in my day we used to walk everywhere. It didn't matter if it was from kamenka to krasnostav. In fact me and my buddies still walk everywhere, because fuck vehicles.

Try resetting the server, although that would also destroy any other tents and vehicles on the server.

You should probably see a doctor about that. Or take a shower or something.

Beans for actually being friendly to him. I know if it were me I'd shoot him about 100 times all the while wishing it was the standalone so I could use a hunting knife to stab him repeatedly in the neck instead of simply shooting him. Can you tell I don't take kindly to people who raid my camps?

DMR might as well be 1 shot, at 8000 blood dmg per shot it can knock someone out pretty easily. That combined with the massive blood loss and you're looking at 10000+ dmg.

Rocket is adressing this as we speak. QQ moar.

There will be a crafting system in the standalone.

If you want to play football/soccer then play FIFA, not dayz.

Wait a sec, Nanners? Are you who I think you are?

I really hope you get banned.

People who alt+f4 are all cowards and morons. You're robbing yourself of the game if you just alt f4 anytime you see someone else.

This has been suggested about a million times already and the general response of the community has been a resounding NO

So I feel like hearing some exciting tales of adventure in dayz from you wonderful people. It doesn't really have to adhere to any specific type of story or situation, as long as it is interesting and worth the read. I'll start off. So this happened a few weeks ago while I was playing with my partner, we play kind of a typical spotter/sniper type duo. He handles the close range engagements for the most part and I keep away the long range threats. So we just log in and decide to meet up in Polana and loot the supermarket for food and general supplies. As we are looting the store I go outside quickly just to take a look around and to my surprise I see.... A tractor! Now I'm usually not a fan of the tractor seeing as how it seats only one person and we are a team of two but since we were so close to the construction site we decide to loot it and fill up the tractor with car parts. We didn't find too much in the construction site other than a bit of scrap metal and various other things. As we are heading east from the site I notice a bullet whiz by my back tire. I ask my friend "did you just shoot me?" because he was clearing out a few zombies chasing us. Just as he answers "no" I hear more shots ring out and hear them crack near me. I yell out "were being shot at!". I bail out of the tractor and head for cover, terrified. I could only sort of see the general direction of where the shots came from. At this point my heart is pounding, my judgement is severely clouded by the massive rush of adrenaline I'm feeling. We remain in cover searching for the shooter on the hill to the north of the construction site, the only clue I had to their location was a few zombies heading up the hill. Eventually I come to the realization that the bullets I saw heading towards me were tracers, and from the sound of the gun I deduce that it was a mk 48 mod 0. I decide to make a mad dash for the tractor. I quickly get to the tractor without receiving any fire, "maybe they left" I think to myself. This thought was completely shattered about 2 seconds later when I hear the mk 48 firing again and hear the all to familiar crack of bullets. Right now I feel like I'm going to either get shot and die or have a heart attack in real life. Then it gets worse... I hear another gun ringing out in the distance, it was the unmistakable sound of the DMR. Luckily at this point I'm about 700-800m away from where I think the shooters are. I breathe a sigh of relief as I reach the treeline. But wait. My friend is still hiding near the construction site. He's too scared to move out of his hiding place. Just as I'm about to run back to provide cover we look at the player list and notice that the two people that had logged in right before we started taking fire had logged out. The server only had about 3 people including us before these people logged in so we figured that they must be the people firing on us. What I really don't understand is why you would abort when you just had a squad of two people pinned down for about 5 minutes. tl;dr: found a tractor, got shot at, got scared as fuck, got away, shooters alt+f4'ed.

Thank you good sir for actually sharing a story and being constructive to the thread, unlike some others that I will not mention.
