    PSO type optics rock over mil dots. Shame the SVD is so rare.

    I agree that sniper rifles have a place in this game. The .50 Cals are way too proliferated though and to be able to fire them accurately from any position but prone needs to be rethought. I personally would rather see more generic sniper rifles like the SVD and M24. In the stand alone I hope to see more focus on the social aspect of this game and less focus on the warfare which while fun is a bit derivative and is better represented in Ace/ACRE and PRA2. I think a great way to deal with this would be a hard limit from the HIVE on the number of "HIGHEST TIER" loot.

    Its stagnating for sure. The biggest culprits are the hacking/scripts (which are decreasing thanks to some efforts by battle eye), the lack of a real meaty endgame experience, the proliferation of end game loot which makes the endgame easily achieved, and finally the lack of tent storage which makes progression impossible.

    End game is ruined by hackers. No way to get any large group v group action when a server with player count > 30 is targeted by any hacker.

    In a perfect world you wouldn't even have the waypoint. But this suggestion is a good compromise.

    To answer the request to store more cross bow bolts without sacrificing the ability to 'recover' them just simply allow them to be converted to a 'bundle' of bolts. This bundle would be of 3 or 4 and would have to be unbundled to be used as ammo.

    100% agreed. An issue with NVGs could be resolved in the stand alone with a sort of battery system. Thermal optics could work if not attached to a weapon too.

    We'll win. You've yet to take anything from me. :D

    I think thats that. Hackers caught wont admit it specifically if they have an issue. Evidence is plenty and technical and has no need to be on a public forum. It will be dealt with by the higher ups on both US137 and DayZ. The fact that US137 server will remain up will prove that there was no wrong doing. The DayZ team is very strict with admin abuse.

    Nothing is really rare with the proliferation of arms :D New weapons are made (and duplicated) every day! This being said the M4SD is better than the M107 as long as you have ammo.

    PDW or G17?

    [email protected] replied to !Forman's topic in New Player Discussion

    I've been using the PDW for about two months now. No plan on going back. PDW has the one flaw of a imperfect iron sight but this doesn't matter if you get familiar with firing 'from hip'. PDW has the ability to use M9, M9SD, G17, PDW, MP5, MP5SD ammo. The G17 is good but I'd take the PDW.

    Meh. They make a game interesting for those of us in the ('lack of') end game. Had a group come on today spawn two helos. We fired and made one crash and they all died. Then they spawned on the helo and died again. Then again and died. Then finally started picking off the group one at a time. Oh well? I've learned to stow loot on multiple servers and en masse. Really they did a lot of nothing but give us some fun. I definately feel that the stand alone will solve many of these issues.
  14. ytman18@gmail.com
    Use them well. The SVD is the best sniper rifle in the game (imo) once you get the range finder down right. I have more than a few I can part with... all I'll ask for is info.

    Simple suggestion with the hopeful result of more scarcity; Have the Hive monitor (within the last week) active player's inventories for ammunition and weapons and have it send spawn parameters to each server adjusting the '%' chance spawn of items.
  16. ytman18@gmail.com
    Necro reboot/finally found this thread again. In response to "whats wrong with the status quo?" The issue is that there is simply no scarcity of any kind and that things that should be diminishing in quantity (ie all supplies) are actually proliferating. Its not just guns and Voggles but food from stores and cattle. The hive can certainly keep a simple data track of these items on hand in each player and tent/vehicle.

    Of the 500+ servers only a handful advertise that they have 3dp off. There are no more than 100 3dp off servers, veteran or not. 3rd Person is a crutch and I will prove it. I will actively and indiscriminately murder anyone I find on a 3rd person server. I'm not a regular player killer but the bs of 3rd person needs to be dealt with. One bullet at a time. ===== There could be a theoretical solution. 3rd person is disabled when prone and inside/near buildings. Still I feel that I have great situational awareness in 1st person and that people who don't have it and must use 3rd person are weak persons on crutches that need to be kicked from under them.
  19. ytman18@gmail.com
    As long as its this mod keep 3rd person around because people cry at the thought of not having the crutch. Then on retail/standalone refine the first person mechanics so that people can't cry about 'ouch head bob hurts' and the truth comes out, "I have terrible situational awareness. I also failed analytical geometry and spatial reasoning." Seriously, and I WILL be an 'elitist' about it, playing in 3rd person is a crutch. It gives you a better sense of situational awareness that simply wouldn't be present otherwise. You have your right to play like that, and by all means do. I have my right to call you a girly man and say you suck. Go back to watching Piranha 3dd

    If it were to ever be implemented I'd like to see it tied to humanity. It should only be possible with very negative humanity and the very act of doing it should bring ones humanity far far lower than just murdering another. Basically, the act of cannibalism opens up the concept of people as sources of food. Basically demeaning other human beings as animals to be harvested. It is a repugnant act to murder one human for the sole purpose of eating them. I personally don't see a value in this 'feature'.

    I unloaded half a mag on a tractor once. It never caught fire but it did vanish.
