Hey guys, I'm doing a report/ summary on the compound crossbow and I'd like to hear your (unbiased) feedback on it. First, problems and/or inconveniences with it. This is what I came up with. 1.) Lack of iron sights/ way of aiming. 2.) Large amount of space bolts take up (1 bolt per slot). 3.) Bolt retrieval. 4.) General clumsiness. 5.) One shot per long reload. (Resulting in the need of a trusty sidearm) Next, possible fixes for it. 1.) Addition of sights/ optical attachments. 2.) A quiver for storing more arrows (5-10 per quiver?) 3.) Placement of arrow in the zombie's inventory when one is hit with an arrow. If you agree/ disagree with a statement, post about it. Otherwise if yours isn't listed, please post about it as well!

I hope that there will be some kind of better optic. In fact it's a perfect weapon if you're surviving alone and want to kill zombies without wasting ammo (since you can pick up bolts.) The main reasons people don't like it is: 1. Complete lack of sights to aim with 2. Massive amount of space bolts take up 3. Retrieving bolts when not headshotted. (can dissapear in body)

Cherno vs. Elektro - Which is more dangerous?
natebot88 replied to (_BlaZe_)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You know people say Cherno is more dangerous but my theory is that people think that cherno is populated so much so they go to elektro. And guess what everyone goes to elektro! I've only been to Elektro 2 times about and Cherno all the other times, and today I was in elektro and almost died! Had to kill a guy in a firehouse. Guess I'm not going back there.. Besides the grocery store- firehouse- apartments/hospital loot route is great. -
First, awesome avatar. Second, is the frequency of toolbox spawns increased according to player count? Because I checked out that 3 story industrial complex in the east side of cherno, and didn't find one there. Also a bunch of smaller places too.
-
Haven't found a toolbox yet.
-
No, most people are trolls putting it there to fuck over innocent players from getting loot they they most likely need.
-
Just remove the barbed wire and military wrecks / bodies
natebot88 replied to GexAlmighty's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Sorry, but that probably won't happen. I doubt they read anything but the most spammed stuff. -
It's not that they can't fix EVERYTHING, it's that they can't fix ANYTHING. Even the most game-breaking glitches haven't been fixed.

Spawned at coast, lost all gear? You can still do a corpse run!
natebot88 replied to Fector's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This just happened to me. I'll miss you as50, ngv's, gps, silenced m9, rangefinger, and m4ccoSD... ): -
You know what's contributing to it? It's the damn bugs. You CAN NOT tell me that the dev teams are "Working their assess off" while the artifact glitches, which in un-fixable or very inconvenient cases, have gone un-fixed for many people for over, what a week or two? Today alone, I lost a M4ccoSD, my as50, ammo, coyote backpack, gps, nvg's, rangefinders, maps, compass, watch, knifes, silenced M9, and ample food and medical supplies, and a ghillie suit because the game decided to kill me when I had to relog in because of ARTIFACT GLITCHES. Thanks devs, for then spawning me in debug planes, then respawning me with absolutely nothing with same blood and food/drink and a ghillie suit west of kamenka. Don't even tell me that "it's still in alpha" and "stop crying ;_;", because these kind of bugs are major/game breaking in many aspects, and still go untouched by a dev team that fails to read the overflow of bug reports and fucks up the game one thing at a time every patch.

I was wondering if there would be a way to port the compound crossbow into the core Operation Arrowhead game, so I could play around with it and get some practice in the editor. It's a fun weapon, don't hate!
-
TYried everything you said, but it didn't work.
-
Yes, I have, but I would like to use the crossbow in that or just the editor.
-
That, and make bolts stackable and add the bolt to Zeds inventory when you hit 'em.
-
Welp, I have an AS50 I probably won't use, a 1911, a winchester with a shitload of mags, a coyote backpack, map, compass, matches, watch, camo, ample supplies, etc. What should I do? I havent found any vehicles yet, but I don't really feel like fixing a vehicle. So, zombie slaying? I mean I don't really like killing other players.
-
Welp it's been suggested that once you hit a zombie with a bolt it should be added to their inventory. As for the player, maybe it should stick on the body, since there may not be room for the bolt to be stored. Or maybe a separate slot for bolts perhaps?

I was with my friend entering Elektro, we heard a big gun outside. Figuring the bastard left after a bit, we started crawling out of the small industrial building. What happens next? Well some dickhead shoots me with a .50. What's wrong with that? I ONLY HAD A FUCKING HATCHET! Are you people kidding me? You kill a player who only has a hatchet and an allis pack? Honestly? If you have a fucking .50 why the fuck are you killing a player with a hatchet and a common backpack? Oh what happens next? Well he gives my unarmed friend a silenced m9, and tells him to "get out of his city". You people are fucking ridiculous, I'm getting a gun and shooting everyone on sight, friendly or not, I don't give a damn.
-
As far as I was concerned the guy told him that if he saw the m9 in his hand, he was dead. I believe there was another person but I'm not sure. Aside from that he was a pussy, I mean he was going all "Yes sir, yes sir ok whatever you want". Ugh. I would've just shot him dead. Oh well, because as of now enjoying my new AS50! *shiny*
-
4th happened to me. Didn't teleport, but shot a bunch of times and still got killed, like the slugs did nothing (shot from a m1014). well, a new life seems to bring now oppertinuties anyway, right? I mean when I respawned I found a coyote backpack in the firehouse in cherno, it's not all bad. Still, they need to fix that. That's game breaking when you deserve that kill but you still end up getting shot the the other guy hasn't a scratch.
-
Was just outside of cherno, west side. Saw I guy running, he saw me. I hid and waited for him, m1014 in hand. Turned the corner and saw him looking the other way. Shot him about 2 times, he went prone. Shot him a couple more, he saw me and shot me dead in a couple shots with an M4 or something. WTF?! I landed EVERY shot, and I'm not exaggerating. So great. Oh, it was US 384, rifleman Mark or something.
-
Holy titties people- stop liking the topic post. Also, shooting on sight is a double edged blade. I got my first murder though it was more in self defense, and I also shot my friend with my M1014, which he then rage quitted and shut off his computer...
-
Well....Screw you and your logic and stuff! (You make a good point)
-
Driving into a rabbit? A fucking rabbit? Now that's just funny.

So do bear traps actually work on players?
natebot88 replied to fuastus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah it won't kill you but be careful, since even if you pick it up and drop it from your backpack somewhere else, wherever the last spot you out the trap will still break your leg, learned that the hard way. -
Bear traps hurt you when removed
natebot88 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Well ACTUALLY I was literally right next to the courtyard in front of the hospital but I lost a bunch of blood and heard gunshots, I was already shitting bricks as it was! Didn't want to go in a lit-up hospital with plenty of zombes willing to smack once me to death.
