    depth and choice with weapons

    Just my two cents, I'd like to see the Winchester 1866 replaced with the Winchester Model 1887. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winchester_Model_1887/1901 It's actually a real life lever action shotgun, but with a 5 round capacity rather than 15 that the 1866 somehow magically has. For how common and effective it is, and how easy it is to find ammo for, the 1866 could do with some nerfing. As for variety in bolt action weapons, I'd love to see the Enfield become a rarer weapon and have the Mosin Nagant (if models can be found, and ammunition can be added) become the more common bolt action, since it's much more common to europe in general, has half the capacity of the Lee Enfield, has a slower action, and is still pretty damn loud. .22 LR would be very nice to see in this game, especially if there was a rare suppressed handgun or rifle for it (using SD ammo, of course), since it would be very, very quiet. The CZ 452 would make a nice addition, since it's big brother the CZ 550 is already in the game. And I know that adding more weapons and balancing current ones is pretty low priority, which is why I'm curious about the current ammo system: does anyone know if it's possible to change to a more flexible way of managing ammo? I'd love to be able to use those .45 ACP revolver rounds to top up my empty M1911 mags, but from what I've seen ARMA II makes that very difficult. Before adding a plethora of new weapons, I'd personally prefer to see a better ammo system implemented, if it's even possible.
  2. Heh, seems like this was definitely the best time for a new player to get interested in this game! Since I've only just started today, I think I can say that right now, the current level of zombies is frightening! Sneaking into town successfully requires a lot of patience, and I've found that the moment I have to fire a shot, I need to leg it doubletime, otherwise a horde will come down on me without remorse. It's a challenge, for sure, especially for the group of friends I was traveling with: traveling as a group seems to spawn more of the damn things than when I was moving alone!
