Get rid of Snipers completely?
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Ok, play on private hives and stop your complaining. No hackers, no duped gear and no hacked in weapons. AS50's are a commodity on the server I play on, as they should be and L85's are even rarer. As we only have 12hr restarts, it's a rush to the crash site to see who gets the loot and with 250 listed players, man that rush is the most fun I've had in ages. Most people are decked out with M107's and rangefinders are somewhat hard to find. Tents are scarcer and people actually worry about their decisions. It all adds up to more intense gameplay and basically how it was before DayZ had its huge hype, which I believe brought the hackers. -
Vehicular Armor Idea -{STANDALONE}-
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to cowan108's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Looks awesome! I believe the glass on the huey is already somewhat bulletproof, I picked one up today with my mates in Elektro and another guy was shooting, or attempting to shoot me through the glass with a makarov and then an enfield. Neither did anything to the glass or myself but this may only apply to low caliber weapons. -
How about you delete the gun? From my experience on Arma, its pretty bad anyways when you're competing with AS50's and L85's or even an AS50 TWS.

Some of my friends are asking the same thing, but with hackers it isn't worth playing too much unless you're playing on private hives. (Which I am guessing most people do now?) Plus there are plenty of other great games available now with GW2, Borderlands and Fifa 13 being released and AC3 coming up soon I'm sure one or two of those titles would be enough to last until standalone.

SAW is great for mowing down zombies and providing suppression in a squad, M240 is more of a PvP gun due to its high damage per bullet, but always take a Mk48 over an M240, Camo and sight provide major advantages.

DayZ is a joke in its current form
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to seanmcloughlin7's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
And I believe that the very point of games existence is to have fun. If you don't enjoy it, why buy it? They were created to be a fun leisure time activity. -
Nice guys finish last.
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to zinny50's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Just shoot them when they get too suspicious and remember the key rule, don't let them check your backpack! -
Something that would be AWESOME.

Needs more chainsaws. -
Gold Revolver and Gold AK47
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to Albatros (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Golden revolver! Just like the one in COD! =Infinite range + tons of damage! Why, wouldn't it be wonderful to see bambi's running around with these! -
Definitely, but they should start by having the weapon take in the current mag you are using so it doesn't take up inventory space, and you don't have to reload it every time you switch weapons.

My story vs russians :D
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Why? Most "hacked" weapons were introduced early into the game, but removed for various reasons. Who knows if this weapon of his is a legit one that has been cycling the system for months? Alright, cool it isn't to everyone else's advantage, but at the same time it isn't stated that it is a BattlEye offense to use hacked or non-legitimate weapons. -
This should be in the game legit anyway... with a 0.01% spawn or something :P

Another Cherno Story...
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to eric11's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
He had a KSVK? How is that possible, I thought it wasn't even possible to get your hands on it with scripts, guess I was wrong. (For all those who don't play Arma, the KSVK is similar to the AS50 but it is incredibly more effective against vehicles) -
Shock respawn would be a good idea, given the fact that when I die, I mostly spawn on the coast in shock for 10 minutes. Also could be used to get constant respawns though, so it might not be such a good idea.

SurviveDayZ Mod - More Difficult & Extensive DayZ | v1.2
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to ryahn's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Fair enough, to OP anyway same goes for the thermals, no point in having ghillie/svd camo when everyones running around with thermal sights. But anyway WOOT!! CHINOOKS!! Are the M40A3's going to be somewhat better or worse than an M24? Btw, also happy to help in any testing! -
SurviveDayZ Mod - More Difficult & Extensive DayZ | v1.2
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to ryahn's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Wow too many new things! Sounds amazing, but does it play well? EDIT: Why remove NV goggles? And have chinooks been added? you mentioned them at the bottom of your post, but it isn't in the changelog. -
DayZ Commander Now Supports Fallujah
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to SystemiK's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Oh DayZ Commander, you've done it again! -
Fair enough, that would be just about the only reason I would think of not to wear a ghillie, it kinda just makes people want to shoot you on sight in cities because they assume you have all the high end gear. Anyway go for the bandit skin or hero skin in CQC, although both have advantages/disadvantages (mainly being that you will be shot on sight as a bandit, no matter what)
-
Why not wear it yourself? It's great disguise no matter what guns/role you like to play. There is always a use for all the tools available in DayZ.

Infected children in DayZ. Poll.
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to DZR_Mikhail's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
It would add to the "horror" and suspenseful side of the game, although it unfortunately would increase the rating, possibly dramatically and even make it impossible to buy the standalone in Australia, where we don't have an 18+ rating :( -
I do love this game...
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to 2hi4me2cu's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, I think the dramatic drop in player count is really disappointing, considering DayZ was at an all time high only a few months ago. Hopefully most players will come back for standalone providing it lives up to our high expectations, or else they may go on to WarZ :( -
M9SD is not only rarer that G17, but a lot more useful considering its suppressor, should have a higher price IMO.

1.7.2.6 Bandit Skin vs. Backpack
CombatWombat (DayZ) replied to mines_skyline's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
With this method, I'm still assuming that you lose the contents of your backpack? -
Where you proning? In past experience this has only happened to me while proning but one can never be too sure, so I still exercise a large amount of caution when surrounded by.,. doors.

brooms.
