Yup! Maybe a rarer military backpack. Kinda miss having a truly rare backpack in the game, anyway. Coyote <3

Should be able to strap one to the backpack, then. It should take quite some slots, though. It should have a serious downside. This is one of the things I liked about the mod, tbh, before you could carry four weapon, that was just crazy.

hoarding? There's no way you can hoard without some kind of storage. I think you mean "getting overattached to your gear". That being said, I hope they add tents soon, I love hoarding. Basically I always ran around with crap gear because I wanted to stash everything away safely. ^^

Should be able to put one in/on the backpack IMHO.

No client-side optimizations so far. No worries, they'll come eventually. At least it's not a console game ported to PC of wich we'll be sure we won't see any decent optimizations of, ever.

What?! Guys, you all serious? OP: m4 has a very low accuracy value atm. It's been flagged as a bug. Use it with magpull and it should be a tad bit better. use it with a deployed bi-pod whilst prone and it'll hit human-sized targets at 500m.

Shhh, don't give them the idea to introduce sound cues which everyone would use after a while since it would be an advantage.

Yea, kinda expected it to work this way at first tbh.

Sadly though, DayZ doesn't simulate internal bleeding. Take a 5.56 to the intestines, and you're dead, just not instantly. In DayZ you simply bandage up. 9mm pistol rounds to the chest? yea, ok. Maybe. But those are not the weapons you'd like to see nerfed anyway.

Maybe the condition of the mag is too bad? Edit: Might want to ditch the shotgun shells, there's no shotgun in the game yet.

Why aren't the people in the pro-camp getting any bad karma for wanting to introduce a feature that would bother a lot of people so a only few can have a better experience? Why are the people that want a feature to increase the fun for a few, yet decrease the fun for a vast, vast, vast majority right here?

Not my fault they used it to scare the crap out of local leaders and the like by making their bodyguards explode.

No thank you. I disagree. I like realistic damage portraits.

It should, in accordance to RL. Though seeing as how accurate the m4 can become with the right upgrades despite having a messed up base accuracy that's most likely gonna be fixed, that the SKS will probably have more damage per bullet, support for a high-powered scope, this will be enough of a substitute DMR for me until they introduce a real semi-auto battle-rifle type weapon. The unrealistic bullet velocity from the previous titles might get carried over (keyword: might). Even if it doesn't, It'll be good enough for me. I'm probably a tad overexcited right now, but yeah... :D

I just fail to see how global chat helps with this. And even if it did, you'd be bothering a huge amount of players by reintroducing sidechat, just so a few can have an easier time, even though there are alternatives they should, could, and probably are using, anyway.

Don't let it get to you. We'll get better cheater protection eventually. The best anti cheat is a good, small group of admins, private hive, and whitelisting. It's just that right now they have so little power, and there's no way I'd want to see 24/7 daylight, added barracks, and 10000 vehicles + 20 spinoff mods. So torn on this matter atm... Go to bed, it's late. I'm gonna do the same. G'night bro!

I want about as many civilian weapon as military weapons. Where's that option? Not a fan of makeshift weapons though. At least not makeshift firearms. I mean On one hand everyone's complaining we have no military training and shouldn't be able to fire sniper rifles like we do atm, on the other hand, we should be good enough amateur gunsmiths to craft our own peashooters? Nah. Melee weapons? Sure, But I doubt there's a need for making makeshift melee weapons tbh, there's plenty. AK-74's should be common, AK-47 uncommon, SKS a tad bit more uncommon, Dragunov and PKR rare. SVU, AS-VAL or VSS and PKP/MG42 should be the rarest. That's the pattern regarding military gear I'd like to see, at least. M4 would have to be in the rare category, as its a NATO gun.

Yea, and you're laughing with what he said. It makes me sad and I'm not even German.

If you are within range of direct chat VOIP, you're also in range of the direct chat text... range. As it's the same. People who spot the guy and attempt to communicate through voip before shooting, will still use VOIP, Global chat or not. And no, please... Maybe one out of every 500 players is deaf. Yet chat will be filled up by randoms anyway. And it would be like a continuous monologue for the other people on the server. If they are in a group they can still use direct chat texting, right? it doesn't have to be sent to every client on the server...

I strongly oppose calling any German you don't like a Nazi gas-chamber related thing. Even if he is a cheating scumbag. It's cheap.

Reading comprehension compadre. WE are not saying it's the same, I'm pretty sure the devs ALSO know it's not the same, but right now it is PROGRAMMED to be the same, so we can't help it. To be honest, I think they should give it its proper ammo type. It doesn't make sense. Imagine how OP the AK-47 would be, and how weird it would be to balance 7.62 ammo to be not overly common for the bolt actions because you have to make them common enough so the SKS and AK can use them. Nah, I doubt this is not a placeholder.

People don't want high-end stuff, this includes armour. It should not offer enough protection that you can shrug off higher cal weapons, should have no pouches, and weigh quite a bit.

This. SKS using Mosin ammo is probably just a placeholder. Is accuracy a gun property, btw?

Horde zombies should be a bet faster than you, and alert the entire flock. 50 or so would do.

I prefer it when controlling vehicles, that's it.
