I'd like to see some CBRN gear as well. I mean, we are talking about a virus or disease or whatever, here. It'd be nice to see something other than a Czech M10m, I mean the thing is basically made for tear gas and that's about it.

I don't like the idea of adding too many weapons that are designated sniping platforms. I'd rather see a bush gun type rifle that has the ability to throw a scope on to throw the range out a little farther. I guess really though, with an R700 unless they add bipod/suppressor support to it, there'd be no reason to use it over the CZ527 with a scope. The ammo is harder to find, and it wouldn't have irons by default.

Well they've gone and implemented a 9x39, so a 9A-91 carbine would be cool. And again, the Vityaz-SN would be a great fitting 9x19 SMG.

Don't know what gave you this idea, but monopods and shooting sticks were being used with high caliber single-shot rifles for hunting for a long, long time. Far before we saw bipods being attached to firearms, anyway. Ruger GSR would be a good choice, it's got that nice scout rifle motif and serves the purpose of a brush gun for shorter-medium length engagements, and has ironsights plus has rails to attach a scope.

Release day, all the servers stuck on night time permanently, nobody knows where to find gear, everyone beating each other with low tier melee weapons or fists. Basically my first DayZ combat.

I agree! The more the merrier (within reason, of course).

Still surprised not to see a PP-19-01 Vityaz-SN on the list, it's chambered in a round that's already in the game (9x19) and it's Russian, so it fits the bill (probably even more so than the MP5A5 that a lot of people want).

Oh, yeah, one time I found OREL pants. They were cool.

Doesn't fit the theme, really. That being said, the guy that did these is awesome because those renders look really cool.

Funny you say that, I just started playing again after a long break, and the first police station I go into had both a CR527 magazine and the rifle itself, I was hoping that I wasn't lucky and they had actually made them spawn more often, as I like the way the rifle looks but the last time I played (patch before Repeaters and MP-133's and such were added) the rifles were everywhere and there were no magazines to be found for them ever. Sad to hear the rifles are still borderline useless because of the rarity of their magazines.

I find a lot of bullets. Usually, they're coming towards me at anywhere between 1,000 - 3,000 FPS.

When you're talking about boosting the damage of a round that usually two hit kills, where is there to go? You can either boost the damage to where it's just at the cusp and still a two hit kill despite having increased damage (which wouldn't be a noticeable "buff", really) or you can make it an OHK. I understand the realism aspect, but with something like this it's important to take balance into account. I'd be very disappointed to see the Rossi become the meta civilian firearm in the game.

I really feel like just a reduced spread and improved ammo capacity of the carbine would be enough to make it worthwhile.

Fuck it? Fuck it.

With this being the case, then I don't think they should actually up the velocity on the Rossi. The Magnum is already very powerful and kills in what, 2 hits usually? I don't think the Rossi really needs to be an OHK, I feel like a 2-3 hit kill is fine for a pistol caliber brush-gun, I really don't want to see it as a Blaze or Mosin competitor. Rather, I'd rather it be in the same class as the CZ (which I never actually see being used, considering as I mentioned earlier, you'll rarely ever find a CZ AND a magazine for it before finding a better weapon and ditching the CZ).

I don't think velocity has anything to do with damage, the way the game's model works. If so, .22 probably wouldn't be so shitty. I'm almost certain every weapons damage, velocity, etc. are worked on and tweaked individually.

With all these ammo and weapon suggestions, I again make the suggestion that weapons should be spawning with a single, empty magazine. Finding the right kind of weapon, magazine, and ammo in an area on the same server is very implausible, and definitely contributes to the problem of server hopping (specifically at the military areas). On top of that, I again state that nobody in their right mind owns a weapon without owning the magazine for it, or a magazine without owning the weapon to which it belongs. Not very well, it is now one of the "special threat" rounds tested by NIJ standards.

Doesn't really matter considering the Magnum usually winds up killing in very few shots anyway.

Dean said he'd like to add the M1 Garand, it was on "his list", because despite being a weapon you'd most likely not find in Chernarus it's a weapon that a lot of people like and can "connect to". Also, don't forget the Browning HP, really surprised the AUG is being added before the Hi-Power.

Not sure why a Chinese version would be in Chernarus. It'd probably be more realistic to find a Yugo M70a there, if you really want a 9x19 TT-33 clone.

A T-72 would be nice.

Too bad the Czech M10 masks in-game are only rated for Tear Gas use at best. Not to mention they're so old the seals on them are most likely compromised and the filters gone bad. I'd rather see them add an M40 to helicopter crashes with the other NATO gear, and CS Grenades to the crashes and police loot spawns (stations and cars).

Obrez should be looked at as an alternative to a pistol or sawed-off IZH-43, it's a close range weapon without doubt (maybe you'll make the hit of a lifetime at medium-long range, the round is certainly capable). The Longhorn, on the other hand, is a pretty unique sidearm in that it's a medium-long range weapon. Really, the Obrez would PROBABLY be unnecessary if the sawed-off IZH-43 didn't aim so ridiculously (it aims far below where it will actually shoot, while the Obrez aims mostly on point) and we had working 12GA Slugs.
